 Description: At an adjourned meeting of the Board of Visitors, held at the University on above date, I have the pleasure to send you under another cover a copy of the rules for the granting of retiring allowances by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. As the gifts stands at present, institutions like the University of Virginia, which are controlled by the State, are not admitted officially to its benefits, that question being left to be determined at the meeting of the Trustees in November. Meantime, however, at a meeting held yesterday, the Executive Committee decided to invite a few distinguished scholars to accept such retiring allowances as a recognition of unusual and extraordinary service as a scholar. In accordance with this resolution, I have the honor to inform you that the Committee of the Carnegie Foundation invites you to accept a retiring allowance of two thousand dollars ($2,000.) a year, this to begin from July 1, 1906. As you will note by the rules, one-half of this allowance, when granted to a teacher, is paid to his wife should she survive him. Your letter of the 22 inst. is duly received. By it I am informed that the Executive Committee of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching invites me to accept a retiring allowance of two thousand dollars ($2000.) a year, to begin from July 1st, 1906, to which is added that one-half of this allowance is granted to my wife should she survive me. Will you please ask the Rector and Visitors of the University at their pending session on the 7th inst., to grant me permission to retire from active service in the University as Professor of Moral Philosophy.
