This document is a letter from University of Richmond President F. W. Boatwright to B. West Tabb, the Treasurer of the University of Richmond. The letter was sent on January 25, 1933. According to Boatwright, Mrs. Woodward, whose position is not stated, proposed to Boatwright that she let her "colored help," Rosa, go and take on Randolph Grammar and Joe Wilyot, who are students, as pastry cook helpers.
