March 31. 1864. A special meeting of the Faculty was held at the house of Dr. Pastore 315. Marshalls St. present Prof. Coates. Temple. Kerr. Pastore Pealett & Cleveland. Dr. Coates was called to the chair. The following communication was received & read from Dr. Faculty. Phila. Feb. 27. 1864. To the Faculty of the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania. Lastly I write the word farewell; After eleven years of work in behalf of the College & its cause laboring to the best of my ability in my poor way to promote the interest of both & hinder varying hopes discourage - want & disappointment; now in the hour of its success, when the reward of patient endurance seemed about to fall like rife fruit into our hands, I must say farewell. It is one of the saddest volitions of my life. But I cannot do otherwise. Bitterly I regret that after full discussion there should be such irrevocable difference of view.
