JFK Items Returned to Family Before AuctionBaltimore artifacts collector Robert White came to a last-minute agreement with the children of President John F. Kennedy to return some "intensely personal" JFK items that were to be auctioned in Manhattan March 18–19. Under the compromise, detailed in a March 18 Associated Press story, two of JFK's handwritten journals and a mahogany clock he kept in the Oval Office will be returned to Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg and John F. Kennedy Jr. Robert Adler, White's attorney, said the collector had already returned a small writing table the president often used because of his constant back problems, along with six sets of documents that will be placed in the National Archives. Adler said that the family, who had hotly disputed White's right to possess the personal items, intends to donate the journals and the clock to the Kennedy Library in Boston for public display.
