Rt. Rev. Wm M. Green D.D. Chancellor University

My Dear Sir,

I have learned with great pleasure of the selection of Gen. J. Gorgas as Head of the Junior Department of the "University of the South". You could probably have found no man more eminently qualified for the position in the whole country.

Wishing the University every success I am with the highest respect

Your obt.servt.

J.B. Gordon
