day 04: new processing

Since I had decided to use Jen's suggested method for processing, the order of correspondences before processing was insignificant. Previously I had organized the letters chronologically before processing them and now I decided to organize them after I completed placing each letter in a folder. I moved folders around and organized numerous letters written by John Beverley Riggs from between the years 1942 to 1945. I had a few minutes left and started processing letters to J.B. Riggs from 1950. I discovered that I preferred this method of organization leaving the numbering process until the end. It will allow for a lot of flexibility while working through the rest of the collection.
