One unaddressed and undated letter by Frances Marks related to attending a Ku Klux Klan meeting in North Carolina in November 1965. Letter mentions arriving to a meeting that was held for "white Methodists"only. One African-American was brought to a gathering and beaten because he corrected a grammatical error. Describes their garbs as ridiculous. Gives an estimate of 120 people who attended the meeting and marched in a circle with lit torches. Other elements of letters are involved with studies at Duke University.
