Baker, University of South Carolina, My dear Baker: I was inexpressibly shocked a moment ago wvhen Dean Stephens told me of the death of President Melton. You had told me that he had never been well since his trips to Chapel Hill and Nashville, but I had heard nothing later and had hoped that he was recovering. I met him only once, but I greatly enjoyed a conversation with him on the train from, Nashville, and conceived a great admiration for him, both as a man and as a college president. I know it is a most severe blow to you personally, and to the University. Please convey to Mrs. Melton may very warm sympathy. I have niot had the pleasure of kmnowing her ; but I can easily imagine what a severe blow it is to her. Yours very sincer'ely, Wr Dn OOnR 1926 May 4 am 9:31 Greenville, S. C Dean L. T.
