 Description: At the annual meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia held at their office at the University of Virginia on the 28th day of June 1875. University of Va. The Committee on Finance offer the following report. The undersigned as Committee on the Library respectfully reports that he has made a careful inspection of the Library-assisted by Mr. Wertenbaker, and he found its condition all that could be desired under the circumstances. The Management and arrangement of this department reflects the highest credit on the venerable and efficient Librarian. Your Committee respectfully report that in the performance of their duties they have made such an inspection of the grounds & public buildings as their opportunities have made practicable and they are gratified to be able to state that both are in as good condition as could be expected or required under the circumstances. The Grounds exhibit evidence of careful attention and the Buildings show that every effort within the means of the Proctor has been made to preserve them, and to prevent as far as possible the decay inevitable from the want of the necessary repairs. In this connection Your Committee will inform the Board that they have called upon the Proctor to furnish them an estimate of the amount necessary to put the Buildings & Grounds in perfect order with a view to such action by the Board as will secure this sum, and they respectfully suggest that the General Assembly should be called for an appropriation for this purpose. Your Committee are aware of the consequences involved in any appearance of the University before the Legislature as an applicant for assistance, but they can but think that this body would recognize the necessity for preserving from loss the investment which the state has made here, and would accordingly provide the requisite funds. Your Committee therefore recommends that the executive Committee should be authorized to apply to the Legislature for an appropriation for this purpose, should they upon inquiry deem it judicious to do so. The Board met pursuant to adjournment on yesterday. Present the same members as on yesterday with the exception of Mr. Carrington, absent. Your Committee on Apparatus respectfully report, that the inventories required by law from Professors Mallet and Smith have been returned and no appropriations asked for. Allow me through your body to present to the University the polygraph used by Mr. Jefferson for the last twenty years of his life. In reserving for publication many thousand of these letters, they were found accurate facsimiles of his hand writing: no error except where the record pen was caught by some irregularity in the paper. When extricating itself with a spring it missed a few letters leaving space for them.
