Letter to Edwin Fee from A. A. Burleigh; Burleigh writes to correct some historical errors he found in a Berea catalog from 1922, including the presence of black soldiers on duty, an incorrect year of a battle where there is instead a small skirmish three years prior, the location of Fee at that time, as well as what the school was like during his time there: small classes, mostly white with a few black elementary students and some families refusing to send their children to Berea due to racial prejudice. Burleigh tells Fee "not to forget the days of small things."
