Resolved, that the Proctor be directed to enquire and ascertain whether the house occupied
by Phil a man of Colour at the foot of the hill below the University is not reputed to be a
house of Evil fame, and if he shall ascertain upon information to be relied upon, that it is a
house of bad fame, and may be injurious to the morals of the University, that the Proctor do
lay such information before the Counsel for the University, and consult him to any legal
means which ought to be pursued to get rid of such disorderly neighbours--
Resolved that the Proctor also report to the Faculty the information which he may be able to
procure--and the proceedings which may be taken in compliance with the foregoing
