Charles A. Baird Missouri from 1921 until at least 1937, also acting as the President of the Board for several years. In his later years, Baird became a benefactor of the University of Michigan. His most prominent gift was the Charles Baird Carillon, a carillon consisting of 53 bells that was the third heaviest in the world in 1936. The carillon was purchased with a $70,000 gift from Baird. When Baird first offered the carillon to the university, the Burton Memorial Tower had not been built. The school initially set aside $35,000 to house the carillon in the tower of the Michigan Union.
A Ghost Is Born the coda of "At Least That's What You Said". Tweedy refers to the guitar solo at the end of the track as a "musical transcription" of one of his panic attacks. "A Ghost Is Born" was recorded in a manner different from "Foxtrot" or 1999's "Summerteeth"; whereas those recordings were performed live in the studio and then overdubbed, "A Ghost Is Born" was first performed on Pro Tools and only played live once completed. Tweedy was excited about writing an album this way: An unusual feature of "A Ghost Is Born" is the fifteen-minute long track "Less Than You Think".
