Summary: Kaiser investigates the story that the papers from the Tibbs family--one of several African American families living in Grinnell in the mid 1900s--were discovered blowing in the wind outside their abandoned house. By outlining the papers themselves, their completeness, and their physical quality, Kaiser concludes that these papers must have been inside the house at the time of discovery.
