3 Item
Abstract Or Scope

This collection is comprised of two letters and an accompanying photograph written between Edward L. Moreland of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Robert W. Dickey of the Physics Department at Washington and Lee University in the fall of 1946. The subject of the correspondence is a photograph of an experimental foot X-ray performed by Edward L. Moreland's father, Sydney T. Moreland while a professor at Washington and Lee University in 1896. The X-ray was of the foot of Lexington, Virginia resident Elizabeth "Lily" Carter Coles. In his response letter to Edward Moreland, Dickey commends Sydney T. Moreland for his pioneer work on X-rays in the South. The accompanying photograph of the X-ray was taken by Lexington, Virginia photographer Michael Miley also in 1896.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
