and find the house in a very uncomfortable condition-The
dining room walls are filthy, so much so that the room
is unfit for decent people to eat in. Jeffries thinks that
by the judicious expenditure of one hundred dollars the house
and premises can be made comfortable. I am informed that very
little has been expended on the property of late, and I most
respectfully recommend that the Board of Visitors instruct
the Proctor to apply one hundred dollars in doing such repairs
as he may think most necessary to the premises. The Board met at 9 oclock A.M. Present the same members

members as on yesterday. Resolved That the Chair of Scientific, Experimental, and
Practical Agriculture in the Agricultural Department of the
University of Virginia is hereby established- I have discharged the duties of Chairman of the
Faculty, by annual election of the Board of Visitors, for the
last sixteen years- I have on one occasion at least since the
close of the war, formally expressed to the Board my wish to
be relieved from service in this capacity and I have often
informally expressed the same wish to my friends- Whilst I
have no right to presume that it will be your pleasure to continue
me in this position, I respectfully ask that you will,
by the appointment of another, relieve me from duties which
may be better discharged by some other member of the Faculty. I beg leave to imform you that the present is
the eighth week of a painful and most serious illness, which
has not only kept me confined to the house during that time,
under the constant attention of my physicians, but which this
morning finds me so perfectly helpless, that I cannot even
walk across the room. | | Similar Items: | Find |

June 25th 1872 Your Committee on Grounds & Buildings beg leave to report
that they have made such an inspection as seemed to them necessary
to the discharge of the duties, and regret to say that
they have found much delapidation in the buildings and great
disfigurement in the grounds. The buildings are out of repair
in various particulars, but more especially in the roofing
of the terrace, and the "Dawson Row". The grounds are checkered
with paths that are unsightly & entirely unnecessary. Your
Committee are aware that the repairs desirable would require
an expenditure beyond the revenue of the Institution at present
but they recommend that provision be made for putting in order
the roofs referred to, as the damage already serious is becoming
worse every day and further delay in the matter will
involve heavier cost. They are also apprised of the difficulty
of preventing the short cuts across the ground but they nevertheless
are of the opinion that the evil can be corrected by
active attention and they therefore recommend that the Proctor
be required to put in operation every expedient practicable
to this end. The Committee on the Library respectfully report that
upon inspection they found the Library in good condition
there are many suggestions that might be made with a view
to its improvements- such as the procurement of glass doors
for many of the cases for the protection of the books, and others,
but the financial embarrassment of the University is such as
to render the requisite appropriations therefore inexpedient
at this time. The Board met pursuant to adjournment on yesterday. The Board met pursuant to adjournement last night. The Board met pursuant to adjournment on yesterday. | | Similar Items: | Find |

of the communication of the Rector covering an extract
from the Report of the Faculty asking that authority be given
them to withdraw the Miller Scholarship from the scholar, whenever
in their opinion he is not making proper use of its benefits;
it is resolved that in the opinion of this Board it is
expedient that the authority asked for by the Faculty be given
them. The Committee of finance appointed by the Rector on the
29th of June 1874 submit the following report: The undersigned respectfully reports that he has personally
examined the Library and he has found everything connected
therewith in excellent condition and it gives him pleasure
to hear testimony to the evidences of faithful discharge of
duty on the part of the Librarian. Your Committee respectfully report that they have inspected
the grounds & public buildings and are gratified to state they
are in improved condition generally. The grounds are no longer
disfigured by paths but present the appearance of a well kept
lawn. And the buildings are in a fair state of preservation.
The committee with pleasure say that everything practicable
seems to have been done to make the best show in and about
the University. Your Committee respectfully reports, that they made a full
and particular examination so far as they were competent, therefor,
of the Laboratory of the University and of the Philosophic
Apparatus in charge of Prof. Smith, and that the inventory required
by law from Professors Mallet and Smith are herewith returned
and adopted as a part of the report of the Committee. | | Similar Items: | Find |

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. | | Similar Items: | Find |
