Maria Magruder Thurman collection, 1860-1936.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/48582882

The collection contains a letter, 1860 Aug. 6, Sweet Chalybeate Springs, Va., Dr. James L. Cabell to Franklin Minor, of 'Ridgeway.' Cabell, writing from Sweet Chalybeate Springs, comments on its virtues as compared with Hot Springs; he mentions the food and house full of "sprightly & gay people." He then discusses at length the "action of the faculty" [of the University of Virginia] in the case of his friend Maury's son Dick [Richard Lancelot Maury] for insubordination and, apparently, drunkeness. There is also a letter, 1932 November 21, Ashland, Virginia, Nancy Byrd Turner, to her cousin, Professor William Mynn Thornton, University of Virginia. There is also a letter, 1936, June 17, Monroe Hill, University, E. Carter Thurman to Mr. [A.L.] Hench. Also, a pamphlet regarding the reunion of the Confederate Veteran Alumni of 1861-1865, University of Virginia, Commons Hall, June 10, 1912.
