Abstract
George Grennell, a Trustee of Amherst College and member of the Prudential Committee, letter to Thomas Bond, an Overseer of the Charity Fund, in which Grennell writes regarding the measures adopted at a recent Prudential Committee meeting on the sufficiency of securities obtained by the Financier of the Charity Fund for sundry notes given for the Fund's benefit. Grennell writes to inform Bond of the measures adopted at this meeting. He discusses the cases of Mr. Sweetser (Luke Sweetser), Mr. Boltwood (Lucius Boltwood), Enoch Flagg, McFarland, and Reverend Dr. Brown and provides the conclusions of the Committee in each case including any recommendations that were made to the Financier of the Charity Fund. He also discusses a letter he received from Mr. Calhoun (William Barron Calhoun) in September regarding the debts and security to the Fund. Grennell asks that Bond mention to Calhoun and to Reverend Dr. Osgood the subject matter of this communication.
