GARRETT LIBRARY?

  In response to the query regarding possible NBS speakers
  in Baltimore this summer, Nick Graver writes: "One fantastic
  resource in Baltimore was the John Work Garrett Collection
  at Johns Hopkins University.  It was at Evergreen House (the
  mansion), and was under the care of Sarah Elizabeth Freeman.

  I attended a great meeting there in 1960 or 1961, shortly after
  we moved there. (Certainly before we left in Spring 1963.)
  There was a very distinguished scholar speaking, and the
  exhibit of ancient gold was super.  The collection was later
  auctioned by Dave Bowers, and the staff must have been put
  out to pasture.  Who knows if any of the staff are there in
  retirement, and if any of the numismatic library remains at
  JHU?"
