 Description: At a called meeting of the Board of Visitors on above date in the President's Office, East Lawn, Enclosed please find copy of my letter to The Virginia Trust Co. of this State, which you will please file as my report on the loan of $12,000.00 to Messrs. A. W. Mosby and H. E. DeWitt. I am sending you herewith, for the account of the Rec- tor and Visitors of the University of Virginia: The Virginia Trust Company insists upon its charge of $150.00 for its services with the loan of bonds to the National Exchange Bank. Mr. Gilliam, President of the Bank, took the position, in which I concurred, that $50.00 was a fair amount for his bank to pay for this service, and, while I feel that the charge of the Virginia Trust Company is somewhat excessive, inasmuch as they have declined to reduce it, I have authorized them to charge the account of the University of Virginia with $100.00, in settlement of balance on this transaction.

 Description: At the meeting of the Board of Visitors called for this date, there being present only the Rector, and Visitors Craddock and Harmon, an informal conference was held with the President, and adjournment made subject to call of the Rector. University of Virginia, April 10th, 1908. As you know from my reports to you of earlier date, I have for some time felt the coming on of age, and the inevitable necessity for laying down the responsibility of my pleasant duties in the service of the University. I beg to acknowledge with sincere regret your communication of March 16th, putting into my hands, for transmission to the Visitors, your resignation of the Professorship of Chemistry in the University of Virginia. I shall present to the Visitors, at their approaching meeting, your formal letter of resignation, with the request that they take such action as they may deem fit and proper. It is with great regret that I feel compelled, by the pressure of age, and resulting loss of health and strength, to give up work in the service of the University of Virginia May I ask you to tender to the Rector and Board of Visitors of the University, my resignation as Professor of Pathology, to take effect September 15th, 1908, and also convey to them my regret at being "compelled" by the insistence of the call to a similar chair in my alma mater, the University of Wisconsin, to leave the Medical school at this period in its development. I send herewith the copyright of the "Geology of Virginia" for the department of Geology of the University of Virginia, for its use without limitation as to time or other considerations. I beg to acknowledge the receipt of the copyright to the "Geology of Virginia" for the Department of Geology in the University of Virginia. I beg to renew our very sincere appreciation of your great kindness and generosity. I believe that the William Barton Rogers Chair of Geology here, since the establishment of the State Survey at the University, is destined to carry out in a noble way the original plans so splendidly laid out by your husband. I now make my third and final report, acting under decree in this cause of January 4th, 1908. This report embraces a full and detailed account of the Receipts, Disbursements, and Transactions of the Norfolk Bank for Savings and Trusts, Adm. c. t. a., of Edward W. James, deceased.
