Caldwell, Harmon White |

Dates: |

|
| |
Contents: |
The Caldwell papers represent the emergence of the modern executive philosophy guiding the modern State University. Because,
for the first time, a filing schema has survived intact, there has been no need for reorganization of the papers to facilitate
user access, and the original provenance has thus been more or less preserved. The papers break down into four broad series
as follows: Series 1: Administrative Subject/Correspondence File 1927-1949. This series encompasses the fullest scope of
Caldwell's myriad duties as University President, and comprises 75% by bulk of the volume of the collection. Included are
extended subseries treating the University building program, the "Cocking Affair", the higher education of blacks in Georgia,
the emerging Landscape Architecture program, the increasing role of agricultural research in the postwar South, the early
standardization of Senior Class rings, the emergence of the University Center in Georgia, the vitality of the newly created
University of Georgia Press, and the WPA Georgia Writers Project. Series 2: Board of Regents Files 1932-1949. This series
documents interactions between Caldwell as University President and the state Board of Regents. Series 3: Wartime Administrative
Files, 1940-1948. This series follows the multiple hats which Caldwell wore in his various roles in support of America's involvement
in World War II. It is further organized into separate sub-series covering the following specific functions: Civilian Defense/Selective
Service/U.S. Armed Forces/War Program/Army Specialized Training Corps/Navy Training School/Personnel-Savannah Unit. Series
4: UGA Personnel Files 1937-1950. This is an alpha-ordered set of University personnel files for the indicated years (it
is not comprehensive).

Creator: |
Jones, Charles C. (Charles Colcock), 1831-1893 |
|
| |
Dates: |

Contents: |
The collection consists of one bound manuscript compiled by Charles Colcock Jones, Jr. entitled "Letter of General Robert
E. Lee tendering to the President of the Confederate States his resignation of the command of the Army of Northern Virginia:
with explanatory remarks by Charles C. Jones, Jr." Thus, the main body of the manuscript is Jones' transcription of Lee's
famous letter. More importantly, however, the volume has tipped in six prints of Lee, six of Jefferson Davis, two of General
George Meade, and one each of Generals P.G.T. Beauregard, Braxton Bragg, A.P. Hill, T.J. Jackson, Joseph E. Johnston, John
H. Morgan, and J.E.B. Stuart. Views included are two of the Battle of Gettysburg, the Capitol at Richmond, and two unusual
views of Richmond, as well as a folding map. In addition three letters are tipped in: 1. opposite page 4. This letter from
General G. E. Pickett to General Braxton Bragg, dated 26 April 1864, one page, discusses military matters preparatory to the
Battle of the Crater and as such is historically important. 2. opposite page 6. Note signed by Robert E. Lee and addressed
to President Davis informing him the the "Florida Brigade cannot be spared from the army." 3. opposite page 11. Note signed
by Davis and dated 25 August 1863 referring to the above. Apparently both 2 and 3 are endorsements from the same original
piece and separated by Jones for inclusion in this volume. The volume also has clippings of Jones' "A Piece of Secret History"
(Scribner's Magazine, February 1876) and a review of this article (The Cycle, 29 January 1876).
