EASEMENT TO MR. W. C. SPRATT

President Darden reminded the Board of the approval given by a Resolution adopted by
the Board at the meeting of January 8th for President Combs to proceed with plans for an easement
for right of way to Mr. W. C. Spratt, whose property separates two parts of the Brompton property,
which in turn cuts off Mr. Spratt's property from access to the highway. Dr. Combs now wishes
to execute the easement and to accept from Mr. Spratt a conveyance of an acre of land which
will connect the now separated portion of Brompton.

The Board adopted the following resolutions

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that W. C. Spratt, of Fredericksburg, Virginia, be granted a sixty-foot right of way from a
point on Virginia Highway Number 3 paralleling the American Telephone and Telegraph Company's
easement, beginning ten feet to the west and approximately 820 feet to the south to an
intersection of the Old Mill Road, which right of way shall be set forth in a deed describing
the exact metes and bounds of this property, subject to approval by the University's Special
Counsel before it shall be executed.

RESOLVED by the Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia
that acceptance be made of approximately one acre of land to be conveyed without consideration
by W. C. Spratt, this tract to join together the two Brompton tracts now separated by
Mr. Spratt's property by a deed setting forth the metes and bounds and subject to
approval by the University's Special Counsel before it shall be executed.

RESOLVED FURTHER that the Board hereby expresses its appreciation to Mr. Spratt for this gift.
