         <head>Rufus B. Sage, 1817-1893</head>
         <p>Rufus B. Sage left his home in Upper Middletown, Connecticut, in 1836
for Marietta, Ohio, where his sister Jerusha Sage Gear, lived. Except for the
winter of 1837-38 when he was in West Virginia and made a voyage down the
Ohio and Mississippi to Natchez and Fort Gibson, Sage spent most of the
period between 1836 and 1840 in Marietta, Circleville, and Columbus, Ohio,
where he engaged in the printing and newspaper business. In 1840, he decided
to go to the Rocky Mountains and Oregon, and travelled with some friends to
Independence, Missouri, to join a fur-trading party. The party left
Independence on September 2, 1841, spent the winter in the mountains,
returned to Independence, and went west again in 1842. By 1844, Sage was back
in Ohio, editing <title render="italic">
               <part>The Whig Battering-Ram</part>
            </title> from August 9 to October 25 and
preparing to write an account of his travels, which was published by Carey &amp;
Hart of Philadelphia in 1846 with the following title: <title render="italic">

         <head>Processing Information</head>
         <p>Collections are processed to a variety of levels, depending on the work necessary to make them usable, their perceived research value, the availability of staff, competing priorities, and whether or not further accruals are expected.  The library attempts to provide a basic level of preservation and access for all collections [as they are acquired], and does more extensive processing of higher priority collections as time and resources permit.</p>
