4 SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

The Rutledge and Graeme Smith Papers, containing approximately 500 items, span the period 1840-1962, although the collection is mainly concentrated in the years 1917-1948. The collection is composed of account books, associations, institutions, etc., cards, Civil War materials, clippings, correspondence, estate papers, genealogical data, legal documents, photographs, portrait of Rachel Jackson, programs, publications, school records, speeches/addresses, World War I materials, Wright brothers, writings, and several miscellaneous items. A large portion of the collection consists of copies of personal correspondence of Graeme McGregor Smith with family members. Besides Mrs. Smith’s family correspondence, there are letters of various prominent correspondents including William Jennings Bryan (Box 3, Folder 2), Cordell Hull (Box 3, Folder 5), Woodrow Wilson (Box 5, Folder 12), and Alvin York (Box 5, Folder 13). In addition, there is an interesting letter of Eudora Anderson McGregor (the mother of Graeme Smith) to Gen. L. H. Roussea, written in 1864 refuting a charge that she had given aid and comfort to the Confederate military (Box 1, Folder 19). Finally, there are a series of letters written by Albert Smith to his parents describing his experiences while serving with the American Expeditionary Force (A.E.F.) in France during World War I (Box 3, Folder 9). Mrs. Smith was the executrix of the estate of her cousin Sallie Tilgham (1854-1934) who died intestate. Estate papers in the collection provide information on Mrs. Smith’s long search to trace down legitimate heirs to her cousin’s estate. A sizable part of the collection is composed of speeches and addresses of Mrs. Smith to patriotic and literary organizations in which she was a member and/or an officer. Because of her speaking ability she received many invitations to share her thoughts on patriotism, citizenship, and the role of women in society, particularly in the suffrage movement. Although the collection is largely focussed on Graeme McGregor Smith, there are several items relating top the activities of her husband, Rutledge Smith. Mr. Smith had a long association with the Tennessee Central Railroad and was assistant to the president from 1930 until his retirement. In Box 10, Folder 3, there is an informative article about his leadership role. Among Mr. Smith’s interests was aviation. He was a friend and consultant to the Wright brothers. He was instrumental in bringing their plane, the “Kitty Hawk,” back from Great Britain to the United States in 1948 (see Box 11, Folder 6, for Correspondence and Clippings). Photographs include several of the portrait of Rachel Donelson Jackson which Mrs. Smith was successful in having placed in the White House. Another photo is of Rutledge Smith and Woodrow Wilson York, son of Alvin C. York. All of the photographs in the collection are housed in the vault of the Tennessee State Library and Archives.
