Born in Gausdal, Oppland, Norway, he emigrated to the United States with his family in 1868, settling first in Wisconsin. Buslett became a prominent voice among Norwegian Americans through his work as a newspaper editor, particularly with Folkevennen and Republikaneren, where he promoted civic engagement, education, and cultural preservation. A gifted storyteller, Buslett wrote extensively, producing novels, poetry, historical sketches, and community histories. He authored a history of the 15th Wisconsin Volunteer Regiment, Det Femtende Regiment Wisconsin Frivillige, published in 1894. An English translation, titled The Fifteenth Wisconsin, was released in 1999. Beyond his literary achievements, Buslett served as a teacher, justice of the peace, and a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly (elected in 1898), where he represented his district as a Republican. Scope and Content: Letters, notes, poems, manuscripts, reports, speeches, reviews, clippings, and a biographical miscellany of a Norwegian-born author, poet, journalist, legislator, and merchant in Northland, Wisconsin. The letters received by Buslett deal with local church problems, bilingualism in the church, criticism of current Norwegian-American literature, materialism among Norwegian Americans, the Wisconsin exhibit at Norway's Eidsvoll Centennial in 1914, and a State Park in Door County, Wisconsin. The letters by Buslett are to his wife and Waldemar Ager. Among the papers are a review of O. E. Rølvaag's "Paa Glemte Veie," a copy of Wergeland's "Talsmand" (Stevens Point, 1886), a roster of small towns in the United States with Scandinavian names arranged by states, articles on woman suffrage and socialism, reports from the Wisconsin Good Roads Committee of 1909, and a bibliography of Buslett's works. The collection contains letters from significant Norwegian-American authors and journalists of the day, among them R. B. Anderson, B. Anundsen, Julius Baumann, John Benson, Sigurd Folkestad, O. S. Hervin, H. R. Holand, P. P. Iverslie, Simon Johnson, Jon Norstog, Torkel Oftelie, O. E. Rølvaag, Peer Strømme, and Johs. B. Wist.

Boe (1875–1942) was a prominent leader in both St. Olaf College’s early development and the broader history of American Lutheranism. The son of a pioneer pastor, he graduated from St. Olaf in 1898 and was ordained after completing his studies at the United Lutheran Church seminary in St. Paul. In his twenties, Boe became the first president of Waldorf College (1904–1915), simultaneously serving as a pastor and as a member of the Iowa state legislature. He later moved into church administration, becoming the executive secretary to the trustees and education board of the newly formed Norwegian Lutheran Church of America in 1917. Boe’s 1918 inauguration as St. Olaf’s president highlighted his continuity with the college’s earlier leaders, blending Norwegian-American traditions with the wartime patriotism of the era. His presidency carried the college through years of growth and hardship, guiding St. Olaf from a period of prosperity, through the Great Depression, and into the challenges of another world war. Scope and Content: Articles, pamphlets, clippings, scrapbooks, and pictures dealing largely with biography. L. W. Boe was the fourth president of St. Olaf College. The two scrapbooks were compiled by his sister, A. Sophie Boe. The main collection of the L.W. Boe Papers is in the St. Olaf College Archives. Papers deal largely with biography, Boe's proposals for reorganization of the Lutheran Church, and the Boe Memorial Chapel. Access Rights: This collection is open to research.

Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context P0460 Title A name given to the resource Lars Wilhelm Boe papers, 1896-1993 Description An account of the resource Biography/History: Lars W. Boe (1875–1942) was a prominent leader in both St. Olaf College’s early development and the broader history of American Lutheranism. The son of a pioneer pastor, he graduated from St. Olaf in 1898 and was ordained after completing his studies at the United Lutheran Church seminary in St. Paul. In his twenties, Boe became the first president of Waldorf College (1904–1915), simultaneously serving as a pastor and as a member of the Iowa state legislature. He later moved into church administration, becoming the executive secretary to the trustees and education board of the newly formed Norwegian Lutheran Church of America in 1917. Boe’s 1918 inauguration as St. Olaf’s president highlighted his continuity with the college’s earlier leaders, blending Norwegian-American traditions with the wartime patriotism of the era. His presidency carried the college through years of growth and hardship, guiding St. Olaf from a period of prosperity, through the Great Depression, and into the challenges of another world war. Scope and Content: Articles, pamphlets, clippings, scrapbooks, and pictures dealing largely with biography. L. W. Boe was the fourth president of St. Olaf College. The two scrapbooks were compiled by his sister, A. Sophie Boe. The main collection of the L.W. Boe Papers is in the St. Olaf College Archives. Papers deal largely with biography, Boe's proposals for reorganization of the Lutheran Church, and the Boe Memorial Chapel.
