held on this date, with the following members present:
Rector Gordon, Judge Norton, John W. Craddock, Ceo. R. B.
Michie and R. C. Stearnes. Having learned through Dr. Booker of Balitmore
that Dr. W. P. Morgan was on the point of bestowing his
library upon some institution, Dr. Harry T. Marshall
conveyed to me, as Chairman of the Library Committee, this
information. After an exchange of letters with Dr. Morgan
Dr. Marshall and myself visited him at his home, 315
Monument Street, Baltimore—with the result that he
presented to us his entire collection of books, claiming
the right to reserve some of the books for his own use
as long as he should live. At the solicitation of Dr. William D. Booker of
Baltimore and Dr. Harry T. Marshall of the University of
Virginia, I offer my library to the University of Virginia,
according to the terms agreed upon by yourself and At the meeting of our Library Committee
yesterday afternoon I read them your letter of December
12, in which you state that at the solicitation of Dr.
William D. Booker, of Baltimore, and Dr. Harry T.
Marshall, of the University of Virginia, you offer your
library to the University of Virginia, according to the
terms agreed upon by yourself and me as Chairman of
the Library Committee. (re-Estate Frances L. Wilson, deceased.) | | | Similar Items: | Find |
