Title

Pacific University Trustees 1882 meeting minutes regarding Captain Wilkinson being withdrawn

Description

Minutes taken at a meeting of the Pacific University Board of Trustees on August 29, 1882. The trustees heard a letter from the Department of the Interior which refused to reassign Captain Wilkinson to duty working at Pacific and the Indian Training School. (See PUA_RG2_13.pdf, which makes it clear that he was ineligible because he had been away from his unit 'on detail' for too long.) Wilkinson told the committee that he might be permitted to continue his detail if certain conditions at the Indian School were met. The trustees resolved to ask for another officer to take over Wilkinson's duties, if he were not to be reassigned.
