2. The establishment maintained for the custody and preservation 

 of the Works will also be transferred to the College Board, but as the

 duties assigned to them, the Board will be good enough to replace them 

 by more efficient persons, taking every precaution at the same time 

 for effectually securing the integrity of the Manuscripts.
