Description
1902. Very Good. (1)p. Letterhead stationery of Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute. 27cm. 143 words. Purple typewriter ink. One horizontal and two vertical folds (where folded for mailing). Original envelope preserved. Also preserved is a business card of Geo. M. Jones, President, Central National Bank, Springfield, Missouri. Washington, apparently responding to an invitation to speak in Springfield, Missouri, writes that "confidentially there is a possibility that I will be appointed to a position in connection with the St. Louis World's Fair" and that if that happened Washington would be able to accept the invitation since he would otherwise have to come to Missouri. BTW also tells Jones that he remembers meeting him in New Orleans and that he is sending Jones a copy of "Up from Slavery." It seems unlikely that BTW ended up being offered any connection with the Louisiana Purchase Exposition which is remembered for having been particularly unfriendly to African American participation. Online sources identify Jones as having fought on the side of the Confederacy during the Civil War.
