o'clock A. M., in the Office of the President, at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville,
Virginia, for the purchase of $523,000.00 Library Revenue Bonds of the
Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia, authorized pursuant to Chapter
49 of the Acts of the Extra Session of 1933, of the General Assembly of Virginia,
as amended, and by virtue of a resolution of the Board of Visitors adopted January

The proceeds of said bonds, together with a proposed grant by the Federal Emergency
Administration of Public Works, estimated at approximately $427,909.00, will be
applied to financing the cost of the construction and equipment of a new Library
Building, (hereinafter referred to as the "project"), to house the general library
of the University. On December 27, 1935, we received in the Philip F. duPont Trust
No. 1-28-B, 381 45/55 shares General Motors Corporation Common stock as a
dividend on 21000 shares duPont Common stock held in that account. The
general rule is that dividends of this nature constitute income which is
properly distributable to the beneficiaries of a trust. Acting on the
theory that the general rule applied in this instance, we communicated with
you for advise as to whether you desired to have the General Motors stock
distributed to you or whether you preferred having us sell the stock and
distribute the proceeds thereform. | | | Similar Items: | Find |

with the Rector, Fred. W. Scott, and Visitors Corbitt, Garnett, Hall, Rinehart, Stuart, L. C.
Williams and R. Gray Williams, and President Newcomb present. Absent Mr. Goolrick and Mrs.
Munford. "It will be recalled that at a meeting of this Board held on June
14th, 1937, I read certain letters which had passed between my office and
Messrs. Smith, Wild, Beebe and Cades, Attorneys of Honolulu, representing
the widow and daughter of Dr. Charles M. Fauntleroy, deceased, by whose
will a portion of his estate was left to the University, and at said meeting
the following resolution was adopted. "The Executive Committee feels that the faculty should be substantially enlarged
just as soon as possible. I was advised when at the school that definite arrangements
had been completed for the addition of one member to the faculty. This is
a start, but there whould be two or three more additions just as soon as possible.
I have written Dean Eager to this effect and have sent him a copy of the report
which I made, which he will doubtless show you. The Executive Committee hopes
that you will find a way to make the substantial additions to the faculty which
we regard as necessary to enable the law school at the University to maintain
and augment the enviable position it has enjoyed in legal education since the
the days of the great Minor." | | | Similar Items: | Find |
