My dear Dr. Harper:- We yesterday afternoon held our last Uni- varsity Faculty meeting before the Christmas Vacation and I gathered rrom the members present so strong an impression of their feeling of SJ11Ilpathy and admiration for you that I am giving myself the pleasure of sending you this Christmas greeting. You may be sure that the qualities you have shown in so simple and so beautiful a way during your ill- ness have won an admiration from us all which is nothing short of affection and personal loyalty and I know that I am only expressing the views of every man here when I send you a greeting from our very hearts. Falthfully and sincerely yours, WOODROW WILSON To President William R. Harper, ·' Chicago, Illinois. ----c 0 p y POS ~cCulloh Et~e~~ , E i~l~0~ , r Fel.:ru~.ry, 18S6 . l•Y d er Sir , I t 1 o u ii ct rr s i 1 J i :. be c1 h a .. c , wh o : e t ~ ~ r ;v a E u o onu to wtorr I could dclega~J the taol of atteno- inf! to rr,Y c-ci:r ~ );.Cn C'7Il c ; en 6 I ll nly jukit o al'lt. ,;.o attend to it rr.ys .lf. e 11 £ o ~ r y .i o re, s. y that it wi 11 .u o t te :v s s i - tl ior U~ to arL your WiB BS BtOC givin~ a co u ... s e o f l~· ct u r s at c i ca g c n e :i:" 6 u :rr.rr.E ~~ • lv ":l .;, u - I f i u a v n at I sh:: 11 be o t li g--: o t c 'tat ko a v -, - \ i L' u.u c.h on gar a. , Yost s..:. r: e: r - 1 y Yo i: .. _ , II a ... 1.n ;minerr·; abU i ty, j_ 1 ~ c 0 u ] d . 1 ) ·; b c . ff' ~ • w: er ..,.7'~n a_ o! rt~r rean ![)~ 1. h 1 ro1 T < ~Hmr~ y(·H t at T sr JJ r . 90 tb ua1 v~F' ~ tr to. 8 t rnb ... r !:or n"i auri n th ._. we h e yo ~p.n a shor t1m$ wt~a !h mi~ r ot at «~nt 1.n ·tt _ 4an~ ~1 .l h~ • lv~ er f1tt .un o..
