Clark, of the retired list of the army, was detailed as Professor of Military Science and Tactics at the University. The agreement was that we should pay him the difference between his pay as a captain on the retired list and a captain in active service. We were also to pay him what would cover the term fees of such of his children as received instruction here. After the detail the government decided that he would be entitled to receive from the government the pay of a captain on the active list. This we held to relieve us to that extent. He accepted this until recently, when he has insisted that if he is to remain we should pay him the full amount as though he did not receive it from the government. I have not been willing to acquiesce in this, and he has expressed his disinclination to remain unless it was done. I therefore submit the matter to the consideration of the Board, with the recommendation that we take steps to procure a new detail. R e c o m m e n d a t i o n s Nos. 1 to 19, inclusive, were adopted. W i t h regard to N o . 20, P r e s i d e n t D r a p e r was authorized to a r r a n g e with C a p t a i n Clark to c o n t i n u e u p o n t h e same t e r m s as heretofore.
