University of Virginia Library

University of Virginia,
June 13th, 1905.

Pursuant to adjournment, the Board met at 9:30 A. M., on
this date.

Present: The Rector, and Visitors, Downing, Wallace,
Buchanan, Harmon, Hunton, and Moore.

The Board was called to order by the Rector, and the following
resolutions adopted:

Resolved:- That, inasmuch as James Paris Jones was compelled
to leave the University, where he was a student in the
Law Department, on account of ill health, on Jan. 17th, last,
the Bursar is authorized to place to his credit, the sum of
$72.20 which is fairly due him as a refund on fees and charges
paid in advance; the same at his election to be deducted from
his liabilities, should he be a student at the next session,
or turned over to him forthwith. The Bursar is requested to
communicate with Mr. Jones and his father.

Resolved:- That the sum paid by W. E. Moseley for tuition
in the Class of Mechanical Engineering, which was never organized,
be refunded to him, and that the said sum be credited,
as requested by him, on the debt due by him to the University.

It appearing from the Report of Professor Dunnington,
Chairman of the Building Committee, that the balance due on
account of the construction of the Hospital addition, including
the Architect's charges, not covered by former appropriations,
is $1,970.75, of which there has been paid by the Proctor
the sum of $191,74, leaving a balance unpaid of $1779.01;
therefore it is

Resolved:- That the Bursar be directed to pay the said
balance, the payment of the item of $191.74 being approved,
but the final payment shall be made under the supervision of
Professor Dunnington, and proper discharges taken.

Resolved:- That the John Y. Mason Fellowship be awarded
to Mr. John J. Luck for the Session 1905-1906.

Resolved:- That, in accepting the resignation of Colonel
Thomas H. Carter as Proctor, to take effect June 30th, 1905,

the Board desires to express its regret that Col. Carter's
official connection with the University is about to cease,
and to bear testimony to the many and varied advantages
which have resulted from his services. In all its history
there has been no officer of this institution possessing
finer qualities of mind and heart than those constantly
shown in the life of Colonel Carter; and none more able and
conscientious in the discharge of every duty. As Col. Carter's
active career now closes—a long and honorable career
as soldier and citizen, crowned by a decade of most faithful
work in the Proctorship—the Board respectfully assures him
of its hearty commendation and thanks, and of its earnest
hope that a large measure of health and happiness may attend
his declining years.

Dr. W. G. Christian having presented his resignation as
Professor of Anatomy and Surgery,—

On motion, the Resignation is accepted with regrets, and
the Board expresses its high appreciation of the ability of
Dr. Christian, and of the services he has rendered the University
in his department.

The resignation of Augustus H. Buckmaster, M. D., Professor
of Gynecology, Obstetrics, Surgical Diseases, and Abdominal
Surgery, has been received by the Board, coupled with
a request that it be allowed to take effect on the 15th day
of November next. The said resignation is accepted, and the
Board here places on record its sense of regret at the severance
of the connection of Dr. Buckmaster with the University,
and will comply with his request as above expressed, if it be
found practicable to do so.

Resolved:- That, in accordance with the recommendation of
the Director of the Observatory, transmitted by the President
of the University, George F. Paddock, F. W. Reed, and Charles
P. Olivier be appointed Fellows in Astronomy for the year 19051906.

Resolved:- That the application of the Montebello Land
Co. for leave to place a water-pipe through the University
lands to connect with the City water main, be referred to the
Superintendent of Grounds and Buildings, with power to act,
taking care to protect the interests of the University in case
he sees proper to grant the request.

Resolved:- That the Board of Visitors have been greatly
pleased with the quarters they have been permitted to occupy
in the New "Y.M.C.A." Building; and that the thanks of the
body are hereby tendered to the Rev. Mr. McIlhany, General
Secretary, for the kind accommodation.

In pursuance of a former resolution passed on April 13th,
1905, Judge A. W. Wallace, Chairman of the Finance Committee,
submitted as his report, the following letter:-

In pursuance of a foregoing resolution, the following
agreement is here recorded;—

Know all men by these presents: that we, Charles P. Jones,
Daniel Harmon, A. W. Wallace, R. Walton Moore, Eppa Hunton,
Jr., B. F. Buchanan, Carter Glass, H. H. Downing and William
Henry White being all the individual members of the Board of
Visitors of the University of Virginia, are jointly held and
bound unto the Fidelity Savings and Trust Company of Charlottesville,
Virginia, in the sum of eleven thousand Dollars,
to the payment whereof we bind ourselves, our heirs and personal
representatives.

Witness our hands and seals this 12th day of June 1905.

The conditions of the above obligation is such, that
whereas on the 13th day of April, 1905, at the University of
Virginia, a meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University

Due Oct. 15/

University of Virginia

(Signed) By Thos. H. Carter, Proctor

The following Report, submitted by the Proctor, was read by Mr.
Harmon,—and is hereby made a part of this permanent Record,-

Office of Proctor,
University of Virginia,
June 12th, 1905.

To the Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia.

Gentlemen:

I have the honor to submit to you the financial account
of the University for the session 1904-1905, which is
handed you with the preliminary statement of expenses and receipts
to the end of our fiscal year, June 30th, 1905. It

shows our income largely overdrawn; this Deficit being temporarily
provided for under an arrangement with the "Fidelity Savings
& Trust Co." of Charlottesville, Va., as authorized by
a Resolution of the Board, April 13th, 1905.

The attendance of students for the session now closing is
the largest in its history: viz. 705 as compared with 680 in
1900-'01.

Of the 705 students in attendance this session, 199 are
Virginians, who took academic studies and are exempt from payment
of tuition fees. Some of this number are professional
students who took academic studies in addition to a part of a
professional ticket. The whole number of Virginians, Academic
and Professional, this session was 370.

The classes for the session now closing are as follows:

         

Academic Students	338
Engineering Students	88
Law Students	200
Medical Students	145
Total	771

The excess over 705, the total number of students, is accounted
for by the fact that some students took part professional and
part academic tickets, and are counted twice in that way.

Although the number of matriculates has increased, the receipts
from them at a per capita of less than one hundred dollars
are smaller than the receipts from 660 students last year.
This is due to a very large number of scholarships not paying
at all, or paying little; to large deferred payments in the session
on promissory notes, for one, two, three, four, and five
years, and also to refunds.

The catalogue of 1903-4, page 148 states: "All tuition
fees, University fees, the contingent deposits, rents of the
University Buildings, and charges for service in the same,
are payable upon entrance. Under special conditions, the
Chairman is authorized to allow credit; but these deferred
payments are in all cases to be properly secured."

The salaries of all teachers per annum amount to $83,400.
and including the expense of the maintenance of the houses of
those furnished with them, make over $7,000 per month. The
books are balanced daily, and overlooked monthly by the Commissioner
of Accounts, and vouchers found for all expenditures,
and receipts accounted for.

The Old Debt.

We have now in the hands of the Virginia Trust Company,
Richmond, Va., for account of the Sinking Fund to meet the
bonds of the old debt of $69,500. maturing October 15th, 1905,
the following securities:

     

Virginia Century 3 per cent bonds, par value,	$68,800
Georgia Pacific R.R. 6 per cent bonds, par value	2,000
Total	$70,800

This debt of $69,500 will be settled by the 15th, of October,
1905. The bonds that we hold are now selling at 97 3/8;
should they go to 98 1/2 by that time, they will clear the
whole debt; if not, arrangements can be made either with the
Miller Board or with Prof. Stone, so that the remnant unsettled
in full can be continued at 6%, now holding. The debt of $200,000.
on the University property, can be lowered next year from
5% to 4%, making $8,000. a year instead of $10,000. Interest;

and we even hope to get relief from this amount entirely, by
the Legislature the coming winter. When this debt is taken
up, it will relieve us of an annual payment of $7,200, for Interest
and Sinking Fund, which we have carried from 1874 to
date.

Hospital.

The appropriation of $31,000. received from the State,
from special appropriation by the Legislature, has been expended
in the erection of a new wing to the Hospital. There
has also been expended an additional sum of $2,800. appropriated
from the current Receipts of the University. The
Chairman of the Building Committee reports that there is still
due to the Contractors and Architects a balance of $2,203.25,
for payment of which some provision should be made by the
Board.

It is hoped at the coming session of the Legislature to
get the $35,000 for the other wing of the Hospital, which will
complete the whole as originally designed, and will give us a
central Hospital of such proportions as will supply the needs
of this University, and of this whole section of country.

Endowment Fund.

I am much gratified to state that our President, Dr. E. A.
Alderman, has succeeded in getting to date $228,000. Should
we get $500,000. for this "Thomas Jefferson Memorial Endowment
Fund," the Carnegie gift of another half million will fall into
our hands; but if not, Mr. Carnegie has promised to give us dollar
for dollar of the amount we obtain of the present half million.

Fayerweather Fund.

We are in receipt December 12th, from the Fayerweather
Fund of $4,600 net, which has been used in current expenses.
We are advised by Mr. James L. Bishop, counsel for the Colleges,
under date of May 2nd, that the Trustees are anxious
to close their trust as far as possible, and make distribution
of the balance of the Fund before the Commencements in
June. We hope, therefore, to receive another payment on this
account at an early date.

Carter Bequest.

We are informed by Mr. Lewis Cass Ledyard, Executor of
Hon. James C. Carter, that he gave a legacy of $10,000 to the
University of Virginia without restriction of the gift. The
will has not been admitted to probate. Legally the legacy is
not payable for a year, unless the persons entitled to the
residuary estate should consent to its being paid before that
time. Mr. Ledyard states that one of the residuary legatees
may be found incapable of giving such consent, as he is informed
that she is in a retreat.

Austin Estate.

The Austin Fund yielding $9,212 last year, has given us
only $7,898.26 this year. Check for this amount being received
from Mr. Bentley W. Warren, Trustee, on April 15th, 1905.

Sewerage.

I recommend that some arrangement be made with the City
whereby the sewerage lines from West Lawn and West Range shall
connect with the City's system near "Madison Hall." This would
probably prove a solution of the present difficulty, and avoid

further litigation with Mr. Eugene Massie, who holds some claim
against the University of this account.

Granolithic Walks.

Granolithic Walks North of Rotunda, 1024 yards, can be
finished at $1.00 a yard. I recommend that it be done at once,
both for economy and for appearance. Afterwards the walks South
of the Rotunda, extending from residence of Prof. Lile on East
Lawn, around the Quadrangle to the residence of Prof. Fitz-Hugh
on West Lawn, about 1320 yards, should follow. The walks were
begun in 1895, two years before I entered upon my duties here,
and were laid around the Lawn, only to Prof. Lile's and to Prof.
Fitz-Hugh's, and Ranges, and from the Rotunda to the Post-Office.
They should be continued to Monroe Hill and Dawson's Row, and to
the Hospital, and elsewhere, regularly, until fully completed.

The University has the reputation of being the most beautiful
College in the world, in its grouping of architecture,
grounds and scenery, and is visited by many persons in the summer
months particularly, and all the year in the intervals of
trains passing.

Water Question.

The report of the Committee of the City Council, on Increasing
Water Supply, January 25th, 1905, including a Report
to that Committee by Mr. Rudolph Herring, and also a letter of
Mr. George Perkins to the President, which has been referred to
me by President Alderman, are herewith handed to you.

It seems to be the consensus of opinion that the Dam
erected at Mayo's Rock, 2385 feet below the dam now used by

Reservoir on Ragged Mountain, will give temporary relief, but
many believe Moorman's River will ultimately have to be brought
over in a pipe 15 miles long, in a few years, to furnish an increased
supply. Mr. George Perkins will appear before the
Board to explain position of City, and Mr. John B. Moon will
show contract now existing between City and University in regard
to same.

Carr's Hill Dining-Hall.

Under authority given by the Board, a students' boarding
department was conducted on Carr's Hill until May 1st, when,
in view of greatly increasing loss, it was deemed best that
it be discontinued. The experiment has proved a signal failure,
and has added to our already large deficit a sum of not
less that $750.00

Treasurership.

Mr. I. K. Moran has been the Clerk of the Proctor. I
recommend that he be the Treasurer of the University, and report
directly to the President. He entered the service with
me, May 1st, 1897, and has been with me since that time—a
more efficient and untiring officer in his duties, I have
never known. I recommend that he be given $1,500 for his services
as Treasurer, and that his daughter be given $300 a year
for her services. He must have assistance in Matriculating
students, and attending to the increased duties.

He is prepared to give Bond in the sum of $25,000.00 with
the "Virginia Trust Co." of Richmond, Va. as surety. The expense
of this should be borne by the University, as has been
the custom with regard to the Proctor's Bond.

Farm and Grounds.

The Farm and Grounds are now under the management of Mr.
J. R. Wood, who has been for two years the Manager of Teams,
coal, grounds, taking off garbage, and is empowered by Judge
John M. White for the performance of Police Duties, with instructions
in that line. Since the war, I have not known a
more efficient and active man in his department.

He receives $600. and lives in his own house. The house
formerly occupied by his predecessor, is on Carr's Hill, and
is rented for $100 a year, making his office a cost of $500.
I ask the attention of the Board to the grounds, and farm and
the coal service.

I ask that the house in which I have lived be given to
Mr. and Mrs. Raleigh Minor. They have long wished and asked
for a house on the Lawn, and stand first and rightly on the
list of applicants. The father of each of the applicants,
John B. Minor and Chas. S. Venable, is among the greatest men
who have ever lived to give lustre to this University in all
its history. I trust that it may be granted.

The remarkable report is in circulation that the office
of Proctor and Superintendent of Grounds & Buildings will be
abolished, and that the offices heretofore under him will report
directly to the President.

The Board of Visitors are respectfully referred to the
duties of this office of Proctor & Sup't., less the duties of
Secretary, as described in "Laws of the University of Va.,
1900, covering 10 pages, copies of which are on your table.
The Buildings, Grounds, and Farm of 480 acres are assumed to

represent from one million to a million and a half dollars.
The improvements of 1895-'7 after the fire cost
$440,000. The President is frequently away, and if present,
cannot possibly attend to the details of any Office
other than his own. No company in any army of from 50 to
100 men is without a Head. This Office has been in existence
in some form since the establishment of the University
of Virginia. Its value depends upon a good head. The fable
tells us, "Better a herd of Deer led by a Lion than a herd
of Lion led by a Deer." The Proctor & Superintendent of
Grounds & Buildings can report directly to the President,
and keep him informed as to its condition. It need not
cost as much as it cost when embracing the Secretaryship,
which I have recommended above to report to the President.
In the matter of Coal alone, which represented last year
2415 tons of coal and requires the closest attention to
keep within the bounds of Expense. This office is important.

The President's Financial Statement was received and
considered; after which, the following was adopted,- Be it
Resolved:- That the amounts hereinafter set out are hereby
appropriated for the purposes specified, out of the following
Estimate of Receipts and Expenditures, for the Session
1905-1906.
