It's sad when manuscripts, diaries and so on are sold to dealers, etc, and then disappear. It's best, I agree, if they can be preserved in the country of origin. But failing that, I'd rather they went somewhere like the University of Austin, Texas, where at least they will be properly housed and displayed.
