- Description:
- The collection consists of a letter written by Septima (“Seppie”) to relatives in which she describes her decision to move from Nashville to LaGrange. Three letters describe her work as a night school teacher at the “Mission.” Insightful accounts are given of her life and work among people of the Elm City area and descriptions of LaGrange and its citizens. One letter details her own illness and treatment by Dr. Henry Slack, a local physician. Ten photographs of the Elm City area, during the time period, are part of the collection. Transcriptions of the letters, by Rev. William McLemore of the Episcopal Church of LaGrange, are included.
