Wrong Talmadge name

Editor:

Please review the historical facts concerning for whom Talmadge Memorial Hospital was named. I believe Barry Paschal was in error in saying that it was named for Sen. Herman Talmadge (column, Nov. 11). My recollection of that part of history is that it was named for his father, the late Eugene Talmadge, former governor of Georgia.
