Nov. 26 26 My dear Dr. Pammel:-- The prefix Dr. as attached to my name is a misnomer, I have no such degree. It was started fully 25 years ago, by a Mr. Daniel Smith, expert accountant, who came down year by year from New York City to audit our accounts. Sent by our Board of Trustees. He was greatly interested in my work, and said have you a Drs degree, I said no. Well he said you ought to have it. Your work really more than entitles you to it. So from that time on he called me Dr. others took up the refrain, he put it in the

news paper article she wrote, I was powerless to stop it. I regret that such an appendage was tacked on but I cannot help it. Yesterday I thanked God again and again for the life of my beloved teacher and friend Dr. Pammel. I am constantly praying that God will ever bless keep and guide you. I have just returned from a 12 days speaking tour through VA. Speaking at the leading white colleges and universities. Must go to Windsor N.C. Christmas to display my peanut exhibit for the Kingston Chamber of Commerce. Kindest regards to Mrs. Pammel. Most gratefully yours. G. W. Carver
