for the consideration of the "Financial Budget" for 1911-1912, I hereby tender to you and through you to the
Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia, my resignation
as Professor of Secondary Education, and as Professor of
Psychology, and as Director of the Summer School at the
University of Virginia. I should like for this resignation
to take effect at the end of the scholastic year, June 14,
1911. I think it advisable to continue my connection with
the Summer School until its close, July 29th, and with respect
to that phase of my work this resignation should not become
operative until July 29th. It may be that I cannot be present
every day during the Summer School, but if agreeable
I shall be present as often as possible. By the Eleventh Article of his last will and Testament
the Hon. Lambert Tree, Deceased, of this city, bequeathed to
your institution the sum of $5,000.00 to be invested in
perpetuity for the benefit of your library. To be used in
the purchase of books, or such other ways as may be deemed
best for said library. I beg to acknowledge receipt of your communication
of the 29th, inst., containing a check for $4,854.61, being
the bequest of the Hon. Lambert Tree, deceased, to the University
of Virginia, less the inheritance tax of the State of Illinois
of $145.39. I also acknowledge receipt of the copy of article
XI of the will of Lambert Tree, deceased, setting forth
the purpose for which this bequest shall be used. The
University of Virginia will in due time express proper
gratitude through its Rector and Visitors for this bequest. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
