Notes and topics

The enclosure is a formal summary from the Board of Trustees of the events, including the dialogue of BR and Albert C. Barnes to the class of "last Thursday". The enclosure is titled "Events of December 4, 1941".

Official descriptions of what had been made public about the trouble and when are given. In her covering letter Mullen threatens to go public with the dispute, which now covers Patricia's knitting and the Pintos' request to take photos during class.

A copy of this letter is in Rec. Acq. 21, record 66669. There are two copies of this letter in RA1 825: record 66508 and record 66509.

In the enclosure BR defends the privacy of those who had protested that Patricia's knitting did not disturb them.
