The following memorial state ment was prepared by Mrs. Caro lina McKissick Belser, president: MEMORIAL STATEMENT BY THE EXECU TIVE COUNCIL OF THE SOUTH CAROLINIANA SOCIETY, MRS. IRVINE F. BELSER, PRESIDING The University South Carolin iana Society was organized in 1937 by Robert L. Meriwether to furth er the collecting, preservation, use and publication of printed and manuscript records of importance in the history of the state. Through the years since its inception thou sands of letters, papers, diaries, books, pamphlets, maps and news papers have been added through the society to the University's South Caroliniana collection, where they are classified, repaired when necessary and housed with meticul ous and loving care. The total, imposing in quantity and quality, includes such outstand ing collections as the Calhoun, Davis, Guignard, Hammond, Mc Kissick and Sims papers as well as those of many other distinguish ed people and organizations; there are also many thousands of in dlividual Items-a letter here, a picture or a pamphlet there, an ) GET 'EM BOTH. bines these two te in one great ve you, puff by rste, better taste Modemn flavor !urnished rReprodu4 iture by Salterina in the Presi.

Each year when the members gather for their annual meeting in the beautiful old library on the University campus, they see on ex hibit, read in the program, and hear the description of what has been added since the last meeting. To further its program, the society has developed an endow ment fund-now more than $19,000 -to be used at the discretion of its Executive Council. Under Dr. Meriwether's editor ship the society has published six books and pamphlets selected from the original material in the South Caroliniana Library. All this, and much more that cannot even be indicated, has been the work of the society's only secretary, Robert L. Meriwether. To this original idea-founding the society and using the old lib rary building as the appropriate home of Caroliniana-he added his unequaled knowledge of the value of Carolina material, his painstak ing planning for the proper preser vation of what was acquired, his enirefully prepared reports to the society, his unusual gifts in deal ing with owners of papers and collections; and, above all else, his indefatigable loving care. The South Caroliniana Library is widely known among scholars who have come from every corner of the country to use its treasures, and people who know the problems of classifying and housing similar collections have repeatedly spoken in high praise of Mr. Meriwether's methods. The South Caroliniana Library, its vast collection, and the Univer sity South Carolinana Society, its patron organization, are truly monuments to Dr. Meriwether, and through them his work will en dure.
