                                                                           Chapter Ten: 1900 - 1909

                                         In 1909, the Florida Board of Education, which oversaw the
                                 Board of Control, influenced Sledd to resign and replaced him with
                                 Albert Alexander Murphree, president of the Florida State College
                                 at Tallahassee. Sledd was later president of Southern University and
                                 had a distinguished career as professor of Greek and New Testament
                                 Literature at the Candler School of Theology at Emory University.
