"My Dear Sisson," Wrote Wm. Raimond Baird on Jan. 1, 1898 - HISTORY POST
 

William Raimond Baird was a patent lawyer and mineralogist, but his hobby was his fraternity and the fraternity world at-large. He spent 25 years as editor of Beta Theta Pi's magazine and his manual American College Fraternities is considered a definitive reference on the subject. On January 1, 1898, he sat down and penned a note to fellow Beta Theta Pi Francis H. Sisson.
