Harding Walker, Visitors Hall, Hart, Hull, McIntire, Rinehart, Scott and Williams, and President Alderman Present. I am today sending to Governor Trinkle my formal resignation as a member of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia. I cannot refrain from writing at the same time to express to you and the other members of the Board my heartfelt appreciation of the delightful way in which you welcomed me and made me so completely one of yourselves. I value more than I can tell you the association in so high a duty with men like those on our Board. The meetings have been a pleasure and a privilege. RESOLVED, That the Rector and Visitors having learned with regret, of Dr. Emilie W. McVea's ill health and resignation, deeply sensible of the loss to the Board, and appreciating her many kindnesses and courtesies, have appointed the undersigned committee to express their sincere hope that she will speedily recover her health.

 Description: A special meeting of the Rector and Visitors was held on this date at 9 a.m., with the following members present: the Rector, C. Harding Walker, and Visitors, Hall, Hart, Hull, McIntire, Rinehart, Williams and Hatcher. The announcement that you had declined the offer of the Chancellorship of the University of Georgia, because of a resolve to devote your future to the service of the University of Virginia, came to her alumni as a message of high courage and imperishable faith. The twenty-one years during which you have directed the policies and energized the activities of our Alma Mater have been years of stirring achievement. Her gain in endowments, in student attendance, in academic authority, in scientific equipment, in teaching power, in public usefulness and in popular esteem have been magnificent and in large measure your personal work. They have won for you the sympathy, support, the admiration, the confidence and the loyalty of all our alumni. Yet their allegiance has still a deeper root. You came to this University in a momentous hour. You were our first president and the great mass of our then graduates knew the virtues of the older regime and were unconcious of the ineradicable infirmities which lay hidden beneath them. In a few loyal and devoted spirits a certain fear awoke for the noble tradition of the school, for its high standards, for its law of liberty both in learning and in teaching, for the gracious fraternity of intramural life. It has been your high mission to dispel such fears, to lift all that was worthy in the spirit and tradition of the University of Virginia to a higher plane of authority and power, and by the depth of your understanding and the comprehension of your sympathy to beget for her a future which shall be the rich inheritor of her past. In you she has found both a bond of peace and the righteousness of her academic life.
