Butler's public career, showing its inconsistency and lack...
...community responds, as we believe it will, to our appeal. This will make it unnecessary to ask for any more temporary help, and will keep this noble institution in full operation. A few large contributions of $10,000 or $5000 from the wealthy and liberal will assure the success of this undertaking. Several subscriptions have been already obtained, and your committee hopes that by the end of the year this important object may be secured...
