It is in deed an institution worthy of the great state of South Carolina, and your fine leadership. “It occurred to me, in view of the custom of long standing in such cases, that perhaps it would not be amiss for me to request that all unserved punishments be cancelled. I trust this idea will conform to your high standard of efficiency and discipline.” “With assurances of my very best wishes, “Sincerely yours, “Franklin D.

It cannot fail enhance the pride of the cadets of this and succeeding generations and to inspire them with even more lofty ideals. His gracious letter fills with gratitude the hearts of the faculty and the corps of cadets and of all others who share in this evidence of his distinguished con sideration.” DR. HENRY J.
