Frew, William Nimick--Correspondence, Carnegie, Andrew, 1835-1919--Correspondence, Carnegie Institute. Technical Schools--Planning, Technical institutes--Pennsylvania--Pittsburgh--Planning, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Institute. Dept. of Fine Arts, Lemare, Edwin H. (Edwin Henry), 1865-1934
Board of Trustees president W.N. Frew laments the delay in a decision from the (Pennsylvania) Supreme Court concerning the land for the new technical school, now expected in January, but plans are in the works and building will begin in Spring 1903 if the land is acquired. He notes that all departments of the Institute are doing good work: the Library circulated a record number of books in November, the Art Galleries broke attendance records, and the new organist, Edwin H. Lemare, has been well received.
