and to consider, act upon, reaffirm or repeal the order of the Board of Trustees made

December 14, 1909, prescribing the conditions of the resignation and retirement of

Tames K. Patterson as President of the UTniversity.I?

     President Barker offered a resolution that the contract made on December 14,

1909 by the Board of Trustees with Ex-President Patterson be set aside and held for

naught.

     Br. Davies seconded this resolution, with the statement that an effort was being

made to harmonize and adjust the discordant elements in the University, and expressed

the belief that a compromise could be brought about, if action on this matter could

be deferred a few hours.
