RESOLUTION OF APPRECIATION OF MR. BERKELEY'S SERVICES

The Board adopted the following resolution

The Board of Visitors of The Rector and Visitors of the University of Virginia, in meeting
October 11, 1958, now gratefully acknowledge their constant awareness of the fine and quick
sensibility of Francis L. Berkeley, Jr. to his trust as Secretary of this Board throughout his
five-year tenure of that office, and every member of the Board, as well as recognizing his talent
for accuracy and his scholarly felicity as the writer of our records, has felt a lasting and a
cherished friendship for Francis Berkeley and counted himself better for having it.

A copy of this resolution, unanimously adopted by the Board, will be signed by the Rector,
attested by the Secretary, and by the latter sent to Mr. Berkeley with the regrets of the Board
at receiving his resignation.
