For the use of the club boat house for the six months, Oct. 1, 1879, to April 1, 1880, the University Boat Club paid the college $80.00, at the rate of 87 per cent on its cost of $2000.00. The University Boat Club has repaid to the college all sums advanced by the college for water rates and taxes, except $115.20 paid for taxes in Oct. 1876, and these items repaid are not included in either side of the previous statements. The college has never, to my knowledge, refused or neglected to make repairs when the need of repairs was made known, and has never received, so far as I know, any notification or suggestion that anything about the boat houses was in an unsafe condition.

Yours truly,
