My dear Sir: 
It is desirable and important that all 
the Visiting Committees should be appointed at the annual 
meeting of the Board of Overseers, on September 27 , 
1915 . There are many advantages to the Departments 
and also to the members of the committees in having 
their relations thus definitely fixed at the very beginning 
of the academic year. 
Enclosed is a printed list containing the names of the 
members of the Visiting Committee of your Department 
for the academic year 1914 — 15 . 
In order to secure the best results, suggestions will 
be welcomed from you as to the constitution of any of 
the committees appointed by the Board of Overseers, 
provided you will put such suggestions in writing, and 
mail them so that they may be received on or before the 
first day of September, 1915 . 
Please be sure to advise me of any vacancy known by 
you to exist in the Committee on your Department , whether 
caused by death or otherwise. 
Very truly yours, 
Louis A. Frothingham, 
Chairman of the Executive Committee. 
Please address reply to K. L. Mullen , 2 University Hall, 
Cambridge.
