Correspondence, 1915
Scope and Content
The collection contains Doggett's letters to his father in Richmond, Virginia, from 1912-1915, while he was a student at VPI. The letters are organized in folders by year. An additional folder contains fragments and undated correspondence.
Doggett's letters are mostly reports to his father about his activities at school. He shows constant concern for his grades and performance (possibly because his father was a teacher). The correspondence also includes news from home and requests for money.
