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.
