This letter and accompanying list of names from M. V. Richards to A. H. McQuilkin illustrates the interest in establishing a national park in the southern U.S. The cover letter dates to October 1899, a month before the Appalachian National Park Association was formally established. Richards, a Southern Railway Company executive, suggests individuals who may be interested in promoting the idea of a national park. Many of those suggested are in Washington, D.C. A. H. McQuilkin was a Chicago-based editor who moved to Asheville, North Carolina in the mid-1890s and became involved with the association.
