Zebulon Weaver (1872-1948) was a lawyer and U.S. Representative from western North Carolina. He was a member of the North Carolina Park Commission and was involved in the land acquisition process that went towards establishment of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and development of the Blue Ridge Parkway. This set of two letters is the correspondence between Zebulon Weaver and attorney Harry P. Cooper regarding money due from land settlement. Following are brief summaries of each of these letters: Harry Cooper to Zebulon Weaver, March 18, 1931 In this letter, Cooper asks Weaver to speak to his brother in law-Mr. Stikeleather-to ensure the latter provides Cooper’s uncle the money due to them from a land settlement. Zebulon Weaver to Harry Cooper, March 20, 1931 In his response, Weaver assures Cooper that the Treasurer of the North Carolina Park Commission should advance the money.
