September 5, 1923 Prof. S. W. Carver, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, Dear Sir: I have your letter of August 24th which came to me during my absence. I am sorry I did not get the letter sooner. Otherwise I would have arranged for a representative to be present at the exercises in Kansas City. I reached home September 3rd. I congratulate you on receiving the medal. Very truly yours, P/T. (Signed) L. H. Pammel
