held at the University on Monday, June 15th 1903. I beg to transmit to your honorable body the enclosed
memorandum and letter with the information that Mrs. Claiborne
and Capt. Cabell have established in the School of
English Literature a scholarship to be known as the Henry
Coalter Cabell scholarship. Their decision is the result
of an exchange of letters between Mrs. Claiborne and myself
in which she expressed their desire to provide here some memorial
of their lamented Father and in which I had the privilege
of proposing several plans. I had hoped very much to see you during the Educational
Conference last week, and had I known you would return to the
city from the University of Virginia, I should have made an
effort to see you on Sunday; as it was, I had but a glimpse
of you on the platform on Sunday night. Present: The Rector, &, Members Harmon, Wallace, Moore,
Stuart, Glass, Irvine, & Hunton. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
