For some reason, and I may be wrong, I always thought that James O. Hall was aware of the manuscript and alerted Mr. Risvold to it.

It's similar to Mr. Hall alerting others to the David Rankin Barbee Papers at Georgetown. Mr. Hall did not agree with all of Barbee's research and conclusions, but he thought the wealth of the research and Barbee's fine style of writing deserved to be posthumously published. I know that he approached Barbee's daughter about it, but she wasn't interested.
