collection is a copy of the ad
dress of Joseph Caldwell, first
president of the University, to

townspeople in old Person hall,
March 11. 1800. Person hall

room, and still stands today near
Old West where it is used for
band rehearsals and by the Play
makers. The exhibits on Washington
are contained in three cases in
the entrance to the library. In
the first case are the famous
letters and personal account
