BIRD TO CONDUCT HIS CASE
Claims That President Barrtnger Was
, Anxleis to Have Him Bemoved
Declares He Was Throws Out
Without' Reason and Ytolatlon of
Roles.
By Wire to The Sun.
Blacksburg, Va., Aug. 20. Declar
ing that he has been arbitrarily dis
missed from the faculty without cause
and without tven the semblance of
a hearing, as provided in the regula
tions, Dr. Walter J. Quick, chief of
the bureau of animal husbandry and
dean of that department at the Vir,
ginia Polytechnic Institute, at Blacks
burg, has appealed to the board of
visitors, and has engaged Hon. Rich
ard Evelyn Bryd to prosecute his
case. . ' .,..''!
The board will meet on Friday
night, and from what can be gathered
there will be a prompt adjustment of
the trouble or the first developments
in one of the mose sensational fights
that has affected a public institution
in Virginia for many years.
Dr. Quick, according to Mr. Byrd,
was fnduced to come here from In
diana about a year ago and to accept
a position at the head of the animal
bureau of the Virginia Polytechnic
Institute. Dr. Quick brought with
him the very best recommendations
that could be desired. ' t
Roles Demand Recorded Vote
The rules of the board regarding
the dismissal of an officer call for
recorded vote, and that ' at least
two.thirds of the members shall be
recorded In the affirmative before any
final action can be legally and propl
erly had.
It is alleged by Dr. Quick in his
bill of complaint, that there was no
recorded vote, and that no reasons
have been assigned for his sudden
and summary discharge. For all
these alleged misdeeds on the part
of the board, Dr. Quick is through
his counsel, asking for a rehearing,
and it appears as if the matter will
develop into a spectacular one be
fore it is over.
It Is understood, though not stated
by Dr. Quick or his counsel, that Dr.
R. B, Barringer. the new president
of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute,
was interested in the removal of Dr
Quick and certain other officers who
were called upon to "walk the
plank" at the same time, and the
president will in all probability be
one of the principal witnesses In the
case. According to present : Indica
tions, there may be other serious de.
velopments which may prove of great
Interest to the public, and at the
sam time seriously affect the insti
tution.
Dr. Quick's claim in a nutshell is
mat ne was dismissed with no
charges facing him, and without any
semblance of hearing.
The members of the board who will
flnlly hear the case of Dr. Quick are:
J. C. Carrington (rector), Charlotte;
R. J. Noell. Radford: L. D. Kline.
Vaucluse ; L. E. Johnson, Roanoke :
G. G. Kizer, Norfolk; J. S. Musgrave,
Southampton; H. M. Smith, Richrund
P. F. St Clair, Pulaski: Josenh D
Eggleston, Prince Edward, and John
W. Churchman Augusta.
A Former iBvestlgatloB
The Virginia Polytechnic Institute
went, through the fires of Investiga
tion concerning its management about
two years ago, Just before Dr. Mc-
Bryde voluntarily retired, and the
legislative committee having the mat
ter under advisement gave the insti
tution a . clean bill of health. Ever
since the recent chance of manage
ment there have been muttertngs of
discontent and unrest,, and it Is be
lieved that the coming Inquiry will
go a long way toward bringing about
some amicacie cettiement
The investigation will begin on Frl
day, and will probably last for sev
eral days.

K Hanover Court House, Va., Aug. 20.
Hlstorlo Interest has been revived In
the famous old Walnut Grove Church,
in uanover county, through the resig
nation of the Rev. Charles H. Ryland,
D. D.. for many years the pastor. In
discussing the Incident yesterday, Rev
R. H. Pitt, D. D editor of the Relig
ious Herald, recalled the fact that the
church was used as a field hospital
during the battle around Richmond.
"In the later 70s, while a student
at Richmond College and pastor of
Walnut Grove." aald Dr. Pitt, "I took
out with me Dr. J. Lv M. Curry, who
was to preach for us;". We arrived
at the church Just as the Sunday
school was adjourning, and wandered
around under the glorious trees for a
few moments. -V.
"Presently' I observed In a clump of
bushes a piece of garden paling,
standing upright, with something
rudely carved upon It Pulling it up
for closer inspection, I found the
name of a soldier, his rank, his com.
pany, and regiment I recall that he
was a lieutenant and was from Mis
sissippi; a date.v and then these
strangely touching words that told
the whole story: ; :
His Right Arm'
'Some gallant' fellow had lost his
arm; it had been amputated in the old
church; some comrade had burled it,
and had marked Its place of sepul
ture in this simple fashion. More
than fifteen years afterwards we had
stumbled upon it I made full mem
orandum of the Inscription and re
placed the simple monument.
Refused Anaesthetic
"I am not anxious to put any strain
on my reputation for veracity, but I
must complete my little story. I
came to Richmond to be pastor of
the Venable Street Church in 1SS0. A
year or so afterwards 1 was one day
talking with the late beloved physi
cian, Dr. John Jackson, who had serv
ed as surgeon in the army, and told
him of the incident, showing him the
full memorandum which I then had.
He x.uickly said: I remember him. 1
performed the operation. I recall him
distinctly because he refused to take
any anaesthetic."
Don't forget, that we have a lanse
supply of lawn hose, any length. At
tractive prices. J. S. Basnight Hard
