REQUEST FOR TESTIMONY ON COMBS HEARINGS

The Rector read to the Board a letter from Mr. Chinn of Fredericksburg requesting that
he be permitted to see transcripts of the hearings before the Board in December, January,
and February on the charges against Dr. Morgan L. Combs.

After considerable discussion, the Board resolved. (1) that the Rector be authorized
to inform Mr. Chinn that Dr. Combs' Attorney, Mr. Willis, has a copy of the only existing
transcript of the testimony in the hearings regarding Dr. Combs, and (2) that the Rector be
authorized to say to Mr. Chinn that he may see this transcript at Mr. Willis' office, or
at the office of the Secretary in Charlottesville, providing that Mr. Willis, acting
for Dr. Combs, grants him permission to do so
