  • Letters from Lynwood and Percy Scott in Europe, 1917-1918 by Percy Scott

    Letters from Lynwood and Percy Scott in Europe, 1917-1918

    Percy Scott

    During World War I, Thomas Scott was the headmaster of the Normal School, what is now the University of Southern Mississippi, in Hattiesburg, MS. Scott and his wife had two sons at the front, Lynwood and Percy. As with the Swan Family letters, both sides of the correspondence survive. Unsurprisingly, schoolmaster�s sons Lynwood and Percy both have neat and tidy handwriting. This item was included in the Scrawl and Order exhibit, http://lib.msstate.edu/exhibits/past/.
