The page presentation framework of the Booker T. Washington papers is designed to provide researchers worldwide with searchable access to the thousands of pages comprising the fourteen volumes, most of which are out of print. Adapted from the National Academy Press's Open Book framework, this framework allows searching down to the page level, provides sorting of search results chronologically, enables easy navigation across multiple volumes, and allows page-by-page local printing (via PDF) of every page.

JUNE . 1910 correct. The whole thing is to be kept quiet for the present. Just what our friend means by such procedure I cannot understand. Vernon, it is understood, is to remain for the present. After ~ saw that they were cletermined to remove Lyon I asked the President to put Crum in the place, and he complied with my request. Of course, Crum is far from an ideal man, but as things are going I am quite sure they would have put a worse man than he is in the place, and besides it is known, however, that Crum is our friend. The caret has been received, and I am most grateful to you for it. I am planning to reach New York Friday, and shall see you as soon thereafter as possible. Enclosed I send copy of a telegram which I have received from our friend in Washington relating to the Lyon case. Yours very truly, B.T.W. TLpI Con. 49 BTW Papers DLC. To William Demosthenes Crum [Tuskegee,Ala.] June ~3, To (Personal and Confidential). My dear Dr. Crum: When you go to Monrovia, I very much hope that you will bear in mind that Bishop I. B. Scott, whom you will find there, is one of our warmest and best friends. He has been of the greatest service to us here, and to your friends and our friends. There are certain cliques in Monrovia that will likely try to alienate you from the Bishop. But I have known him for twenty years, and during all this time he has proven a staunch, sincere friend, that you can depend on in season and out of season. Yours truly, Booker T. Washington TLpS Con. 904 BTW Papers DLC. 337
