Title	Wilson--Correspondence (Christopher Wilson Papers, 1964; Archives Main Stacks, SC 1209, Folder 1)
Author/Creator	Wilson, Christopher
Folder Description	Chris Wilson was a Freedom Summer volunteer from Stanford. This folder has 3 letters from him (some not very legible) and a couple from volunteer Betty Carstens to family and friends, describing their voter registration work. His canvassing roster is fascinating. The program from the Sept 1964 "Welcome Home, Volunteers" celebration in CA is included, as is a sermon probably from the same event. There's also a letter from the Mississippi student volunteers to the California State Democratic Committee asking them to support the Mississippi Freedom Democratic Party (MFDP).
