Letter to the Editor from Jaming Harod Singh

DESCRIPTION
Letter to the Editor dated October 30, 1955 and addressed to the Oklahoma Daily. The letter (from "Jaming Harod Singh") thanks the faculty and students of the University of Oklahoma for their reception of the "Maharaja of Florpur", and claims he will soon return. OU International Club president Sharanjit Singh Dhillonn often jokingly claimed to be a maharaja hailing from the nonexistent "Florpur" during his college years, dressing the part at costume parties and writing press releases announcing his travels.
