Dear Sir:—

I received your note asking us for the total number of
students registered, the total number to whom tuition will probably
be remitted and the approximate total of such remission. I have
delayed a reply in the hope of sending you an accurate statement.
I cannot even now, however, state with absolute certainty the
total number to whom tuition will be remitted. I can only

approximate it. The total number of regular students now enrolled in the Law School-by regular in this connection, I mean to exclude the Academic students who are enrolled here for the 5-hour course-is 246. 246.

There will be a total remission of tuition in the case of eight students, at least, and a partial remission of tuition in the case of seven or eight others. I cannot tell just what the remission of tuition will be in this latter class of cases, for the remission will be for monitorship work and not having had experience in that

Mr. Morris F. Tyler,
Treasurer.

My dear Sir:-

In sending in the list of Law students I simply called attention to
the men who have been given positions by me which would exempt them from
the payment of tuition bills, either wholly or until the end of the term.

No new arrangement has been made with Mr. Bierkan. Whatever arrange-
ment exists is one of several years standing, entered into before I came
into the Law School. I have deferred complying with your letter in order
to confer with Judge Baldwin to find out the arrangement that Mr. Bierkan
has but the Judge has been absent from the City and I, on that account,
am not able to state definitely. Your books, however, will show what salary
he is getting as Instructor in accounts, and I think an adjustment of his
not
tuition may be left until the end of the year especially as he is taking
full work. The University will be more indebted to him than he to the
University when it comes to a settlement of the year's accounts.

Ypurs very truly,

Dear Sir:-

I have this day received from you a bill for tuition in the
Law School of 100 dollars for the past term.

I think there is some mistake about this. Shortly before
the beginning of the last school term I spoke to Professor Rodgers as
to the advisability of my entering the Law School, and a few days la-
ter registered in the usual form. Upon my return home, however, after
a consultation with my father, I decided that I would change my mind,
and shortly after wrote a letter to Professor Rodgers announcing my
intention to resign and my reasons therefor. I did not hear from
Professor Rodgers with regard to it, but as I did not consider this
necessary I thought no more about it, nor have I kept a copy of the
letter that I wrote. Will you kindly look this matter up, and oblige,

Yours very truly,

New Haven, Conn. March 10, 1905.

AUG. 31/05

Dear Mr. McClung:--

I send you the enclosed letter which I this morning received. I am inclined to allow this man to enter and take his note for the tuition. I understand the dangers of that sort of thing and that it is necessary to be exceedingly cautious in such cases. It seems to me, however, that this is a worthy case and that we can probably rely upon his ultimately paying the note.

Will you kindly let me know how you yourself feel about this and whether you would be willing to accept the note.

Mr. Roaraback reported that you had said to him that he could have a month's extension of time in which to pay his tuition. I think that you perhaps have overlooked the new rule governing the payment of tuition in the Law School. The matter is on a somewhat different basis from that in the other departments, as you will see by examining the new catalogue.

A man's tuition must be paid within a month after the receipt of his bill unless he has previously obtained an extension of time. This, Mr. Roaraback had not done. His registration, under the rule, should have been cancelled. This would have involved payment of an additional $5.00 for its restoration. It seems to me that he has been indifferent to the matter and that there is no reason in the world why he should not have been able to meet his tuition at the right time. Of course we are recognizing his arrangement with you and are allowing him to go on. I speak of the matter simply

to call attention to the rule, thinking that you have perhaps
overlooked the new provisions on the subject of tuition in
the Law School.

I am sending you herein another letter which I received from the mother of C.W.O'Connor, a Mrs. Diehle, of Washington, D.C. O'Connor entered the Law School in 1901 and is therefore entitled to pay the tuition as fixed at that time--$125.00 a year. He has made two payments this year, one of $75.00 and one of $50.00, thus paying his tuition for the year. Will you kindly have the receipt show the fact that full payment for this year is now made.

Yours very truly,

Thomas L. McClung, Esq.,

My dear Sir:

On making inquiry of Mr. Strong as to the financial condition of the Law School for the current academic year, he informed me that so far as he knew he was only authorized to allow the Law School $1500 for the Academic students taking the work in the School.

This allowance of $1500 was authorized by the corporation at a time when Academic students were taking simply five hours in the Law School.

When the new arrangement, which went into operation this year for the first time, was agreed upon and the financial interests of the Law School and the University were consolidated, it was agreed that the President of the University and the Treasurer should make such allowance to the Law School for instruction given to Academic students as might seem to them suitable and proper. The Academic students are now permitted to take fourteen hours of work, eleven in the senior year and three in their junior year. This is a very different arrangement from that which was in existence when the $1500 credit was agreed upon.

I call your attention to the matter in order that before the books are closed for the current year the matter may be taken up between you and the President and some satisfactory adjustment made of the credit which is to be given us.

At a meeting of the Governing Board of the Law School the other afternoon, this matter was brought up and our recollection of the agreement made between the University and the Governing Board is as stated above.

CITY.

Dear Mr. Treasurer:

I enclose herein two checks which are to be credited
to the Wayland Memorial Fund for the Law School, one received from
Governor Roberts and the other from Mr. Henry C. White.

In making up your accounts for the Law School please
do not overlook the fact that the Law School should be credited with
the tuition of Mr. Zaragoza and Mr. Obieta, both of them from Manilla,
the University having assumed their tuition bills under an understanding with Secretary Taft, Governor of the Islands at the time these
young men came here.

After you and the President have determined the amount
to be credited to the Law School on account of Academic Students
taking work with us, will you kindly let me know the determination
at which you arrive ?

Memorandum
Written by

H.W.R.

Rogers 138

Treasurer Yale University:-

The following memorandum is submitted to the Treasurer's office; tuition bills should not be sent to the following students in the Law School who are appointed assistants in the law library and whose tuition is to be remitted on account of service to be rendered there,---H.H.Atwater, J.M.Forsythe, Forest Lawhead, John C.Durey, Thos.F.Porter, D.J.Davis and Thos.G.Wall. In addition to the above tuition bills should not be sent to Matt S.Walton or Neil P.Sterne, Registrar and Assistant Registrar respectively, and Carrol L.Beedy, Clerk of the Yale Moot Court. Tuition bills should not be adjusted until the end of the term in the case of the following who have been appointed monitors; H.V.Jones, Norman Weil, 3rd yr.; Spencer G.Brown and C.W.Evarts, 2nd yr.; Geo.H.Hunt and Paul S. Chapman, who take the record in the 1st yr. class, G.H.Hunt being enrolled as a special.

In the case of Gerardi the bill should be made out upon the basis of 4/15 of $125. This man entered at the time when the tuition was on the basis of $125 and failed to graduate with his class and he comes in now to take work in the subjects which he failed to pass on at that time. John G. Dunlap, a special, should have a bill sent to him for 4/15 of $150 Mr. Boyd, special should be charged $150. Bills had not best be sent to other special students until further report can be made as to the amount of their work.

Yours very truly,

Dictated.

December 2d, 1905.

My dear Sir:--

I am in receipt of a letter from you, in which
you say that you have received no reply to your letters of
Oct. 13th and 23d.

I do not understand how this can be, as I remember
distinctly of having replied to both these communications.
The reply to the letter of Oct. 13th I wrote with my own
hand. The reply to the letter of Oct. 23d I dictated to the
stenographer. He made a duplicate copy of that letter, which
I now enclose you. The stenographer informs me that he sent
the original over to you by our janitor, Johnson.

This office desires to keep here the letter of Oct.
27th. Will you kindly look it over and let your assistants
make such notes from it as you desire, and then return to
us. I think you will find a copy of the letter somewhere on
your files.

We are now getting up a list of the students enroll-
ed for this year and who have dropped out for one reason or
another. This we hope to forward to you some time during
the day.

P.S.---

I have received this
morning a letter from V.
Cardashian sending me a
post-office order for $20.
which he says is the balance
due on his tuition, & which

I now hand over to you.

TO THE TREASURER:

January 25th, 1906.

Dear Mr. Treasurer:

I am in receipt of an inquiry from you concerning
H. E. Sharps.

Our office has not been informed that Mr. Sharps
has discontinued his course, except as notification is
received in the letter which he has addressed to you,
and which I return to you. Mr. Watrous failed to inform
us of the fact communicated to him by Sharps. An exam-
ination into the records shows, however, that Sharps
has not been here since the vacation, and, accordingly,
no bill should be sent to him.

I have received a letter from the father of Clarence
Paul Parker, Deadwood, S. D., stating that a bill was
forwaded to him for the boy's tuition for the second
term, and that he had paid the same. No bill should have
been sent, as young Parker was dropped at Christmas.

The father asks that the money paid for second term's
tuition be returned to him. This should be done of course.

I found that the young man, Parker, was hanging
around New Haven, and concluded that he had not notified
his father that he had been dropped, and, so, wrote him
myself. This was the first information he had received
of the action of our faculty in dropping the boy, and led
to the request for the return of tuition.

I am informed by the Secretary, Mr. Edgerton, that
a corrected list was sent to your office at the beginning

#2-

of this term, showing who are present here. Parker's name was omitted from the list, the Secretary says. It was due to some oversight, I think, in your office, that the bill was forwarded in his case. If you find, however, that Parker's name is in the list sent to your office, I shall be glad to be informed of that fact.

Yours very truly,

P.S.--- As you will need to communicate with Parker's father, I give you his address, --

Hon. W. M. H. Parker,

February 1st, 1906.

My dear Mr. Treasurer:

Replying to your letter of January 30th, concern-
ing the bill against Mr. C. P. Parker, I infer that check
has been forwarded to Mr.Parker, Sr., by your office, return-
ing the money paid by him on the tuition of his son for
the second term.

This certainly should have been done, and Ipre-
sume has been done, although your letter does not specific-
ally state that such action has been taken.

February 1st, 1906.

My dear Mr. Treasurer:

I am in receipt of your letter of January 30th, acknowledging my letter in relation to check of Mr. Schiff, and am glad to know of the arrangement made with Mr. Glasser.

I note what you say in reference to Mr. Dillon having paid nothing as yet on tuition. I will take the matter up with him at once.

I cannot imagine from what source Mr. Strong received advices to send bill to Mr. Davis. He certainly received no such advice from me, as Mr. Davis has been in the library from the beginning of the academic year.
