Contents: |
The Richter collection contains over 600 negatives from 1941-1943. Positive images have been scanned by the Photoservices
Unit of the Digital Library of Georgia and are available at the beginning of the collection. The information used in the inventory
consists largely of the information recorded by Richter on his storage envelopes. The envelopes were arranged alphabetically
by the information recorded by Richter, but have been rearranged in five broad categories: campus groups, locations, and events;
World War II at UGA; university athletics; fraternities and sororities; and individual portraits.
In a few instances, damage to an envelope obliterated information. In several other cases the negatives were damaged, but
images were still taken from them for historical interest.

The Walter A. Lundy Files, Red and Black (Fall 1953) Integration Issue Papers consist of correspondence, clippings and printed
materials. The materials document the response on both local and national levels to the dispute between Walter Lundy and Bill
Shipp, editor and managing editor of the Red and Black, the student paper of the University of Georgia, and the Board of Regents
of the University System led by Roy V. Harris. The debate concerned Lundy and Shipp's statements in two editorial columns
advocating the end of racial segregation in Georgia's public schools. The majority of the correspondents support Lundy and
Shipp for their position on segregation while others who do not favor the editors' proposals, decry efforts by Harris and
the University of Georgia to proscribe the newspaper's control over its editorial content. Many of the letters and newsclipping
come from other student newspapers across the country.

William Gibbs McAdoo letter
|
Requires cookie* |
|
Creator: |
McAdoo, W. G. (William Gibbs), 1820-1894 |
|
|
Dates: |
1866 April 23 |
|
|
Contents: |
A love letter, faintly veiled, to an unmarried young woman, written at the time McAdoo was married to the daughter of General
John Floyd, a prominent Tennessee Indian fighter. His wife was a published author, and he and she apparently enjoyed together
cultural pursuits (see biography at Georgia Historical Society), pursuits which his letter indicates would have found acceptance
with Miss Prudden. The Prudden liason never broke the marriage, as he spent the remainder of his life with his then wife.
Written from the coast of Georgia, the letter is framed against a background of local history and scenery, but it is constructed
in a literary fashion. McAdoo reveals himself to be eloquent of word, not unphilosophical, and well read. On page 2, there
appears an original poem by McAdoo, a point of significance. The National Union Catalog shows all McAdoo's published writings
to have been non-literary. The manuscript sections of the American Book Prices Current for the period 1945-1977 show no appearance
of McAdoo manuscript material. The tone of the letter and his comprehension of poetry (e.g. quote from Campbell on page 1
of the typescript) create the impression that McAdoo was inclined to verbal eloquence and resorted to paper for its recording.
His literary output, however, has not come to light. This may be the sole surviving example of his poetry. Most of the local
historical and natural scenery comment reveals what is already known, some of it, however, nicely presented within the literary
framework already noted, is of interest from that perspectives and hence transcends being purely a rehash of already available
local historical information. There are several descriptions of War damage which may not be available elsewhere (e.g., comment
of Dungeness on page 3 of the typescript). On one occasion, the letter displays a boyish humor. Noting the passivity of basking
alligators to the approach of his steamer, he finds them "as languid and motionless as if they were, also, under the protection
of the Freedman's Bureau." On another occasion, it is clear that his sentiment for the Confederacy had not died in April of
1865; passing Fort Jackson, he notes: "As we came down the Savannah River, we passed the dismantled old Fort Jackson. A piece
of artillery lying here and there tumbled out of its embrasure, covered with rust, and the general neglect and decay, seemed
sadly typical of the fortunes of that power which had it manned and bristling with guns when I last visited the spot two and
a half years ago." Should there ever be a full fledged biographical treatment of McAdoo, this letter presents some evidence
of the romantic side of the man's make-up together with a lead for the biographer to develop. There is no question that McAdoo
hoped to build upon whatever the extent of his relationship with Miss Prudden had been. Additionally and specifically, this
letter gives his thought on war. Additionally and generally, the letter displays evidence of a man quite at home in worlds
less structured than that of the jurist. The typescript of the original accompanies it.
