- Correspondence From Samuel F. Daly to Geraldine Thompson regarding a booklet, "How to Register and Vote in North Carolina" from 1944.

The sender reported the incident to the State Board of Education, which resulted in the superintendent being found guilty of embezzlement and sentenced to ten years in prison, after a white citizen made complaints. 1 page.
