Book Description

Excerpt from Register of the Officers and Cadets of the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Va: 1869 The Legislature of Virginia promptly responded to these evidences of vitality on the part of the school, by providing for the payment of its annuity and the interest on its vested funds. This provision enabled the Board of Visitors to appoint the State cadets required by law to be admitted, and arrangements were at the same time in progress, to restore the buildings, and by the lst of September next, the Barracks and Mess Hall will be restored complete. The Virginia Military Institute now numbers 600 graduates, 200 of whom were State cadets. There have been altogether 2500 matriculates, and of these 560 were State cadets.
