HOUSE G, DAWSON'S ROW
The President reported that three of the Dawson's Row houses had to be torn down to make
way for the Naval Armory. Two of these the University is dismantling with its own personnel and
saving the brick for repair work around the University. However, House G, which was built later
than the other houses, was constructed of a very poor brick. The University has contracted with a
local man, Mr. L. L. Lang, to pull the building down at his own expense for the materials in it.
In addition he is paying the University $100. The President stated that it was necessary to proceed
with this contract without first securing the approval of the Board, to meet construction dates
specified in the bids for the Naval Armory. The action of the President was ratified.
