 Description: The Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia met in annual session this 12th day of June 1893. Knowing as you do, my physical condition you will not be surprised at the contents of this letter. My work during the session of the University, has hitherto embraced a daily lecture of an hour and a half besides multiform incidental engagements. My son's assistance has been very valuable to me, and to the students, but without much lightening my labors. Now however, the state of my health will oblige me to devolve on him a more important part of the instruction in the school of Common and Statute Law, than thus far has falled to his share, and I desire to submit to the Board of Visitors, through you, the propriety of enlarging his compensation to the sum I believe originally proposed for my assistant, namely $1500. Your Architects beg, 1st To acknowledge their error in the assumption that aught but your appreciation of their position could lead to their relief. Having learned that you desire to know whether in my opinion, Mr Jas H. Gilmore, Jr. has manifested such an acquaintance with the law as to warrant me in signing his diploma should the Board signify a willingness to admit him to the degree, I would answer unhesitatingly yes. Mr Gilmore's daily recitations were more than usually satisfactory, as were also his intermediate examinations, averaging above 5/6 the And his answers to the questions propounded for the degree (which were given privately, but under due safeguard), amounted also, to more than 5/6 ths. Gentlemen, The Committee on Finance respectfully reports that the Proctor's annual Report and the settlement made by the Commissioner of of Accounts show a balance in the hands of the Proctor for the fiscal year ending June 15th 1893 of $5125.66. This sum does not include $1275.00 which is a part of the appropriation made to the Library last year and which was not expended. This latter sum stands on the Proctor's books to the credit of the Library fund.

 Description: The Board met in pursuance of adjournment on the 13th of June last. Owing to the present condition of the health of your son, Mr. John B. Minor, Jr., we, the Committee appointed by the Board of Visitors to consider and report upon all matters pertaining to the School of Law in the University, hesitate to recommend him for re-election as your assistant for the ensuing session. We are informed, however, that your son, Mr. Raleigh C. Minor, is in vigorous health, and that he is now assisting you in your summer school. We desire to recommend him to the Board as your assistant for the ensuing session at a salary of Fifteen Hundred Dollars. We trust you will appreciate our position in this matter and that you will know that we place a high value upon the work done by Mr. John B. Minor, Jr., in your classes so long as his health continued good. We greatly regret to learn of his pain for some months past, and we trust that he may speedily be restored to perfect health. We desire to ask through you whether Mr. Raleigh C. Minor will accept the position of assistant in your school, and as we are considering the propriety of establishing a new chair in the School of Law, we will deem it a favor if you will kindly suggest the subjects to be assigned to the new chair if established. We hand you, herewith, an outline of a scheme of reorganization of the School of Law that we are considering, and we would be glad to have you give your views of the same. With sentiments of high esteem, we are We have maturely considered your views in relation to the School of Law in the University, and have given them the weight that we feel your opinions on such a subject are entitled to. We have also consulted medical experts as to the prospects of the ability of Mr. John B. Minor, Jr., to give you such assistance during the ensuing session as we deem it necessary for you to have, and we are strongly advised that there is but little probability of his being able to do so. Yours of this date is received, and whilst I desire to make my cordial acknowledgments for the kindly spirit manifested towards myself, as well as towards my son John, I am obliged to confess that it occasioned me not a little concern in respect to what I conceive to be the interests of the University, as affected by the creation of another professorship. A multiplication of teachers is frequently, if not generally, a curtailment of instruction. I trust it will not be so here.

 Description: At the annual meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia commenced this 10th day of June 1895. Dear Sir, I received on yesterday a copy of the resolution of the Washington Association of the Alumni. Upon Profr Schele De Vere's resignation and severance of his connection with the University of Virginia, the Board of Visitors had no further power to adopt any measure for his financial relief, nor can they, without betraying their trust, expend the institutions money, except for such purposes as are prescribed by law. The resolution will be laid before the Board at its meeting in June. And the Visitors approve in every respect the reply of of the Rector and in doing so they put upon record that no further evidence has been adduced or offered in refutation of the charges made against Profr Schele De Vere and the Visitors are therefore left no course other than to reaffirm their action in accepting the resignation of said Profr Schele De Vere. Your Committee to whom was referred the matter of sewage beg leave to report that after a conference with the Committee of the town Council of Charlottesville they are of opinion that a special Committee should be appointed from this Board with Profr Echols from the Faculty to further consider the matter and report to the July meeting of the Board.
