The Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute Tuskegee, Alabama May 31st, 1904 Mr. L. H. Latimer, 120 Broadway, New York, N.Y. Dear Mr. Latimer: I have yours of May 24th which would have been earlier acknowledged but for the Commencement season at Tuskegee. Under separate cover today, I am sending you a copy of the Montgomery Advertiser, containing a report of these exercises, which you may care to read. I have read Mr. Scottron’s article with very great interest and care.
He has most admirably supplemented your own statement, and together, I think you have absolutely convinced/confounded not only the critics in general, but your friend Mr. Miller in particular. What you say with reference to preparing a diagram of Tuskegee, is most interesting and I shall hope to take this matter up and supply you with proper information. Such a diagram will prove of infinite help to us and I shall be glad to have you undertake it. The sketch as prepared by you, is in itself most interesting and illustrates your idea most adequately. Very truly, Booker T. WashingtonTranscriber
