 Description: The Board met pursuant to adjournment. Present the same 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.
