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. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
