Letter to Dr. James L. Cabell [manuscript] 1853 Dec. 5.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/647951325

On proposal to the Virginia General Assembly for a loan of $20,000 to the University of Virginia to be used for a water supply system and repair of "the Terraces," which Joseph C. Cabell understands "to mean the four ranges of flat wooden roofs in front of the four ranges of dormitories." Cabell concludes with mention of his health and hopes that "the late troubles at the University have passed away. I know nothing of them, beyond what the newspapers afforded and their accounts put the students in a very unfavorable point of view."
