Joynes, Edward S. Columbia, S.C. To O. P. Temple. Reflections on looking over old letters and papers; most interesting letter from Temple dated February 11, 1889, reviewing inside history of U. of T. in those critical days 1878-1880 when the University was in process of evolution -- a history which in part is known only to you and myself; has preserved original of many documents of great interest concerning that period; will bring these papers and Temple's letter to Knoxville in September to look over together; E. T. Sanford's pamphlet of last year on history of the University omits this interesting crisis; Temple and others entitles to recognition of creative agency in work (Page 1), 1896 August 19
