Personal defense letter from Comanche County ex-superintendent
In a May 22 1912 letter S. C. Findley defends himself against multiple charges lodged after his 1910 retirement as County Superintendent of Public Schools. He lists alleged missteps, countercharges, and a lengthy explanation with references to vouchers, overdrafts, and a 1909 census correction by N J Clancy, asserting political persecution and seeking public clarity for friends and supporters.
