Dr. EMMA and Dr. FRANCIS TUCKER Correspondence 1943
01 April 15. To Acting Director William D. Webb from F.F. Tucker, M.D., providing items to include in their contract for July 1943 through June 1944: consider Dr. Emma the de facto incumbent in his absence; a month’s vacation; need accommodation for one or more of the Tucker’s children who may visit during the summer. “Being here during the summer should make it easier for Miss [Grace] Rood to be away a month, and she should surely do so, her duties being heavy and splendidly seen to.”
02 April 16. To Dr. Francis Tucker and Dr. Emma Tucker from Acting Director William Webb.
The Board of Trustees of the Pine Mountain Settlement School has authorized me to employ you both ‘in partnership’ as the School Physician from the year beginning July 1, 1943, and ending June 30, 1944….The amount allotted for service of the School Physician is $200.00 per month…
Salary includes meals, housing at Jubilee House, and limited amount of laundry. Signed by Webb, the Tuckers and Evelyn K. Wells, Chairman of Personnel Committee.
