Emmett B. Faison Letter to William & Mary Faculty, Special Collections Research Center, William & Mary Libraries
Removed from the Faculty-Alumni File Collection in 2016
Emmett B. Faison attended William & Mary from 1903-1907.
Letter dated June 4, 1904, written by Emmett B. Faison to the faculty at William & Mary. He states he's been offered a job in Richmond for the summer and that he must be there by the night of June 15th to accept. Because he needs the job to fund the next academic year, he asks the faculty if he can take his arthimatic examination early.
