Mr. F. D. Patterson
President
Tuskegee Institute
Tuskegee, Alabama

My dear Mr. Patterson:

This acknowledges your thoughtful note of March 23 commenting on my editorial concerning your departure from Tuskegee Institute. I can add to that editorial that personally I hate to see you leave Tuskegee. At the same time, I am happy that you are going on to a larger field where your great talents may be applied to the benefit of the entire South.

I am enclosing several extra clippings of the editorial in the thought that some of your friends or some members of your family might like to have them.

With best personal regards, I am,

Cordially yours,
THE COLUMBUS LEDGER
