Dear Mr* Kephart: -Ae-^" I am enclosing two- copies of a letter written by Guyot to the Asheville biases, dated July 18, 1860. This is a rather rare item and I think that it might be of interest to you in connection with the Mitchell-Clingman controversy. I understand that Roy has passed on to you some additional copies of data relating to this matter. I presume that you have received the Conference Program by now. We are counting on seeing you at Skyland at the end of the month. Sincerely, Myron H. Avery,/ United States Shipping Board, Washington, D.C

This 1930 correspondence, from Myron H. Avery to Horace Kephart, concerns the “Mitchell-Clingman controversy.” The controversy concerned the height of the two peaks: Mount Mitchell and Clingmans Dome. Today, it is agreed that Mount Mitchell is highest peak east of the Mississippi at 6,711 feet above sea level. Clingmans Dome is the highest mountain in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, topping out at 6,643 ft. It is also the highest point on the Appalachian Trail.
