- The collection consists of a letter dated September 17, 1860 written by Cobb to Governor Joseph E. Brown. The letter is in regard to a report by Thweatt concerning the endowment of the University of Georgia. The report apparently blames the University Trustees for squandering funds. Cobb believes the report incorrect and proceeds to strongly contradict the figures given.
