Cabell Brand (VMI Class of 1944) is a noted philanthropist and entrepreneur who is particularly interested in Civil Rights and poverty issues. He has been instrumental in funding projects which honor Jonathan Myrick Daniels, the 1961 VMI graduate and Civil Rights worker who was killed in Alabama in 1965. The papers contain correspondence, clippings, video and other media, and printed matter relating to Brand's interest in Daniels. The papers also include a file on the Cabell-Breckinridge Brass Band at VMI; certificates of recognition; and misc. other documents.
