Frank Carr to James Madison, 17 November 1830

Charlottesville Nov. 17th. 1830

Sir,

I enclose the accounts of the Bursar and Proctor of the University; also a report for the President and Director of the Literary Fund— This last, Mr. Davis informs me, you had requested him to prepare. The close and uninterrupted demands of his chair upon his time have induced him to devolve the duty upon me. I have endeavoured to embrace in the report all that seemed to me material to communicate to the Legislature from an inspection of the proceedings of the Board at their last meeting. Not being present myself at their meeting the proceedings which were delivered to my custody could be my only guide in making the report. With sentiments of deep & sincere respect, I am yr. obt. hb Sert
