RICHMOND. Va, July z. 1892.
Mr.. Thomas Nelson Page:
Dear SIR was at
the meetings looking to the formation OF
the Mechanics Institute from the start,
and think that Captain Thomas Euett
and Major Ainsle. yourself. and others
with myself were there az every meeting.
and were at the Council every time the
matter of an appropriation was expected
10 come M. When the starting OF tho Me-
cbanics' Institute was first conceived
number Of gentlemen came TO my
office to ask me To unite Win tnem.
Captain Thomas Elicit and Mr; pverto1
Howard were Of the number, ana agreed
20 ,,ve anv assistance in my power, had
been At the meeting held. ut Sanger Hail
aorna tirne before TO consider the starting OF
az uechan,cs' Institute. was the secra-
80, ~ that meeting and Mr.. John Ott the
ch.;rmen- There were about nifty men
rTesent. We organized and appointed
committee TO draft constitution ana Dy,
laws. with Mr.. John Ott as cnsiinan. l
,aaat;ros That we held. / think this was
savoyal months before we finally organized.
,raa nresept at the first meeting held at
.ha " ,ooms of the Builders Exchange re-
farrad 10 by Mr.. TYLER. was certainly
rnt suare that Mr.. Tyler took the part
tha, y" claimed. I was not aware that he
haJ any contro, in the appointment OF the
Committees. or of the ofticerEthat u, OF
Capfain Elicit as secretary, MAJOR Ainsile
az president, or myself as treasurer. WAS
not aware that Mr.. Tyler oia Any NOR 70,
than anv of the other gentlemen VINO were
members at the time. think ne over
nst;,notas the part he took IN 1t. lie GER
sa;riv was not more active about u than
aitba, Won or Oyerton Howard, or CAPTAIN
Fllett In fact. we were oil enthusiastic
abcut IL. At the time the institu'e was
started the sentiment towards sucn ah III
stituticn was be co 9aIfia eeH Of IT. '
IA totbe Builders Exchange. IL rendered
ne most efficient aid. IL lent us the rooms,
the use of its furniture. gave US ngnt anu
fusl ami finally sold us the furniture there
M a merely nominal sum. Captain Elicit
and Others Of its members were anu na e,
ever been among the most active anu ei.ii
Gent friends Of the institute. an s'ih
treasurer OF tho institute. oe
Mr. Tv1er's appearance on NUMBER Oh
committees was due more to the fact that
be had abundance of time to attend 10
them than to his greater interest imam
Others in the work. ,
T think he makes a mistake in claiming
an much for himself and depreclating the
services rendered by others. You are at
liberty to make any use you please of this
letter Yours very truly,
fS;n,ad1 w. E. SIxoya.
p. ST. think that what you said in your
address before the Mechanics Institute
respecting your connection with the start
ing of the institute was entirely appro,,
priate. | was sitting close TO you ana
what you said met with my hearty ap-

National" Holidays

To the Editor of he DisDd'ch:
Will you please let me know whether the
Goth of May is q national holiday by act OF
Congress and oblige subscriber!
An act of Congress approved February
%. 1887. provides that all per diem en-
ployees of the government on duty al
WASHINGTON or elsechee in the United SAFES
shall be allowed the day of each year which
is celebrated as Memorial or Decoration
Day as aholiday and shall receive the same
pay ms on other days"
An act approved August 1, 1888. provides
that the 3Oth day of May in each year,
usually called Decoration-Day, shall be-
and hereby is, made holiday within the
District of Columbia.
In passing these acts it would seem that
Congress has done all it can do to make
the 3Oth of May o national holiday.

Both expressions are correct. Good

RICHMOND, VA, July 0, 1874
DR.. Thomas N. Page:
Dear Sir,-As requested I will make the
following statement about the organiza-
ton of the Virginia Mechanics Institute
By reference to the records find that the
first meeting for organization was held on
the 5th day of December. 1885, and 1t was
perfected on the Goth day of January, 1885.
You we're present with many Others at the
first meeting, and also at good
many for the following twelve months.
taking an active interest in the
establishment of an institute.
have always thought that the. organiza-
ton of the institute was effected by the
work and cooperation of its many friends,
who gave it assistance when and where re;
auired in various departments. The roll
of the Builders Exchange shows that for
the month of September, 1884. there was q
membership of about nInety-three, and In
the list OF drawer-renters there were five
delinquents in the payment of monthly
rents out of total of thirty. The interest
then seems to have been about the same as
from the beginning, but after that time
there was gradual falling of until It
ceased to exist on the Dist day OF January,
1886.
Very respectfully, THOMAS ELLErr.
