Hon. Board of Regents, 19 Dec., 1884
Nebraska University,

Gentlemen:
I respectfully request that the Hon. Board of Regents will make the necessary appropriation to keep the following accounts: W. N. Prescott, instruments for band, $54.45
Prof. Easterday, salary as band instructor; 50.00
“ : bill for music furnished. 5.50
$110.25

Under the instruction of Prof. Easterday the band has made excellent progress. His salary is the answer that the Hon. Board has allowed him before. In my opinion it is a reasonable compensation for his services.
The instruments purchased were necessary for the maintenance of the band, and were bought at the best [illegible] possible
Very respectfully,
R. H. Townley
Lieut. U. S. A.
