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.

The BOOKER T. WAS HINGTON Papers may find somebody who will make the institution a gift of such a structure, and if I can, I shall be only too glad to. As for myself, ~ take pleasure in sending you herewith my check for a thousand dollars, which you can use in behalf of the institution in the way that your judgment suggests as being wise and likely to do the most good, and am, with best wishes and kind regards, as always, Sincerely yours, C. P. Huntington TLS Con. 7 BTW Papers DLC. From Susan Helen Porters [Tuskegee, Ala.] Nov. I, ~ 898 Dear Sir: I regret to tell you that Pedro Salina2 was acting dangerously rude in school to-day, notwithstanding the mild and careful treatment which he has received from us. He is extremely defiant, and does not allow the children to look at him. He drew a horrid Iooking knife on two of the little children of his class to-day. I shall have to ask you to do something concerning this matter as he is exhibiting such a wicked example and disposition. I was thinking of writing to you earlier, stating that he should have a special teacher as he is unable to keep up with the work of our ''First Reader'' children. Respectfully, S. Helen Porter ALS Con. ~46 BTW Papers DLC. ~ Susan Helen Porter was principal of the training school at Tuskegee beginning in 1893.
