Richard Baxter Foster Letter to his wife March 30, 1865

Letter from Richard Baxter Foster to his wife Lucy from Brazos Santiago, Texas on March 30, 1865

1.5 Sherman D. Scruggs, 11th President of Lincoln University, 1938-1956

The LU Board of Curators ordered its president, Sherman Scruggs, to have a law school up and running and ready for Lloyd Gaines by September 1, 1939. This task seemed insurmountable; establishing a law school on an equal par with that of MU in eight months would, in the least, be miraculous.
