To the Editors of the Crimson:

In recent numbers of your paper I notice letters and editorials urging that the fund for building the Brooks House be employed in aiding the projected University Club. As one of the committee which obtained that fund, I should like to say that no such diversion of it is legally possible. The subscriptions were given for a distinct purpose-the erection of a specified building-and could at no time be used for other purposes. At present, too, the building may be regarded as an accomplished fact. The Corporation have in writing granted the site, the plans are drawn, and the contracts for construction are about to be let.

Truly yours,

G. H. PALMER. 11 Quincy street, October 16.
