Sub-series includes notes, correspondence, research material, photocopies and transcriptions of Timothy Findley's own journals, manuscripts, annotated computer printout and handwritten drafts, corrected page proofs, and/or final manuscripts of the following works: Inside Memory; and From Stone Orchard. Also included are various drafts, page proofs as well as rejected material for the non-fiction work Journeyman: Travels of a Writer, started by Findley and completed by William Whitehead after the death of Timothy Findley ; two essays on Barbados, one for P.E.N. and the other for the Globe and Mail's 'Destinations'; the Margaret Laurence Memorial Lecture; the theatre script of 'Mute Court: A Plague on Words' created by Findley and others for performance at the P.E.N. International Congress in Toronto in 1989; a children's story titled 'First Fable' that was set to music by John Hawkins and performed at various festivals; as well as others.

Also included are 2 b/w passport photographs of Timothy Findley dated February 1989 and 27 April 1989. These were found in a file entitled "Barbados, The Very Pineapple of Perfection" (1990) (see vol. 122).

Also included are twenty-five wood engravings which were used as illustrations for the limited edition publication "If Stones Could Speak" 1999. The images comprise primarily country garden scenes with ornate beautifully detailed renderings of plants. The works are by print-maker Gerard Brender à Brandis (1942- ). Gerard Brender à Brandis was born in Holland in 1942 and immigrated to Canada with his family in 1947. After some time spent in both British Columbia and Nova Scotia, he settled permanently in Stratford, Ontario. After receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from McMaster University, he went on through self-study to pursue the skills of wood engraving. Brender à Brandis is also known as a master bookwright who combines several arts, including topography, paper-making, printing and bookbinding in order to create limited-edition, hand-made books.

The artist has enjoyed one person exhibitions since 1965. His work may be found in the permanent collections of the National Gallery of Canada, the Library and Archives of Canada Rare Book collection, and the Toronto Library. A member of the Society of Wood Engravers of England and the American Society of Botanical Artists, Brender à Brandis has produced hundreds of drawings and watercolours, frequently based on the subject matter of gardens. The artist maintains a studio in Stratford, Ontario, where his limited edition prints may be found.
