[Letter from R. P. Sibley to T. N. Carswell - July 21, 1944 and correspondence from Byrdie Carswell to T. N. Carswell]

A letter written to Mr. T. N. Carswell, Abilene, Texas, from R. P. Sibley, Assistant Dean, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, dated July 21, 1944. Sibley acknowledges the receipt of Carswell's letters and agrees that probation was hardly the appropriate action but advises that Peggy must pass her registration in Latin to graduate at the end of the term. Handwritten at the bottom of the page and continued on the reverse side is correspondence to Daddy [T. N. Carswell] from Mother [Byrdie Carswell] requesting that Carswell return these copies as she intended for Don Sibley to clear the Cornell record of that first term as he said "as if it had never been". She discusses Peggy's health, faults the advisor for having allowed Peggy's overload of hours and deems the term as worthless.

[Letter from T. N. Carswell to Sarah Anna Simmons Crane - April 21, 1960]

A letter written to Sarah Anna Simmons Crane from T. N. Carswell, dated April 21, 1960. Carswell expresses his appreciation for all the "notes" from Crane which brought "memories of a now far off wonder day, the springtime of your life and mine". He advises of the generosity of her grandparents as to the reason he received his college degree and her Dad, whom he met and loved, was also a benefactor of Simmons. Carswell advises that conditions are quite different out at Simmons, that he is no longer a trustee having resigned some years earlier after Dr. Richardson resigned as president. He requests that she take the attached check and go to a show and dinner "for the sake of old lang syne".
