Michigan Supreme Court Justice; personal papers including political materials, publications, and photographs.
The collection is arranged into a single series of Personal Papers. These include printed materials and files relating to his campaigns for office. The library also has a file of Judge Dethmers office files. The Personal Papers were retained by the Judge and his family for subsequent donation to the Bentley Historical Library. The interpretative comments accompanying some of the file headings were provided by Eugene G. Wanger who was helpful in negotiating this accession.
