In speaking of the report to the press, one of the directors recognized the feeling in the city that part of the Darius Miller bequest be used for the work, and stated that many people were mistaken as to the nature of the gift. The six or seven hundred thousand dollars left by the late Mr. Miller, were left as a permanent gift, capital remaining intact and the institution receiving the interest only as a sustaining fund. Therefore the amount of money needed cannot be taken from the fund H. C. G. Reeks. G.
