Footnote 1. Rhea Hall was a dormitory named after Martha Berry's mother's family. The structure burned in 1941 and was located near the current Blackstone Hall Parking lot. [Many thanks to Tim Brown (Director, Oak Hill and the Martha Berry Museum), who supplied this information.]

This card was from the estate of Lena Belle née Outlaw Rowan (1897-1986), Daddy's half-sister. Likely, Daddy gave it to her, suggesting that Rhea Hall might have been his dormitory. I do not recognize the handwriting. (Many thanks to heirs Sharon and Bennie Dodds for the gift of the card.)

Blackstone Hall, mentioned above, was the first brick building on the campus and served as the men's dining hall (1915-1978), along with other purposes. (M.E. Pethel. 2010. Berry College, a Century of Making Music. Arcadia Publishing). Blackstone Hall would thus have been where Daddy ate during his Berry days.
