[Letter from I. H. Kempner to Chauncey D. Leake, July 1, 1949]
Letter from I. H. Kempner to Chauncey D. Leake referring to a news clipping about a state grant of $500,000 to the city of Houston for a tuberculosis hospital. He asks Dr. Leake if there is any possibility of Galveston receiving a similar grant for a tuberculosis hospital, given a $250,000 donation from Mrs. Rosa Ziegler. He proposes that the Medical Branch could be designated as a state hospital while still recognizing Mrs. Ziegler's contribution by naming a wing after her.

[Letter from William M. Nathan to I. H. Kempner, June 1, 1945]
Letter from William M. Nathan to I. H. Kempner explaining the misunderstanding in the phrasing of the last letter. He explains that he understands that Kempner is not the sole chairman and did not mean to depict it that way in his letter. He explains that his assumption came from the committee's high regard for Kempner. He discusses his promise to solicit donations in Galveston and his plans to do so this week. Last, he talks about the Executive Committee of the Grand Lodge's decision to donate $1,000.00 to the Hillel Building Fund.
