Letter from Orville Bullington to I. H. Kempner expressing his appreciation for Kempner's interest and initiative regarding the construction of buildings for the medical branch of the university. He details the financial constraints faced by the university, noting that funds for new buildings must come from current funds or leases, as the state's constitution prohibits using the general fund for this purpose. Bullington expresses optimism that the citizens of Galveston will support Kempner's proposals for enhancing the medical branch facilities.
