it ''The Leland Stanford Junior Memorial Scholarship Room'', and I direct
that this room be set apart for the exclusive use of the holder of this
Scholarship and that no charge shall ever be made for the use of the same.
This is the work of my precious son, as I am endeavoring to carry
out his wishes expressed to his father and me that what would have come to
him, had he lived, might be given to the poor children of humanity.
III.
The holder of said Scholarship shall be a male student at said
University and shall be selected and appointed for each college year by
Charles G. Lathrop, my brother, during his lifetime, and after his death
by the President of the said University, on the recommendation of the
Committee on Students Aid. Said appointment shall last for one college
year only, and each such year a new appointment must be made, but, other
things being equal, one who has held the Scholarship satisfactorily for
one year shall have preference for the next year. Said Scholarship shall
be awarded to students of small means, due consideration being given to
those of promise, and regard being had as to character, ability, and energy.
If at any time during the year the holder of said Scholarship shall in
the judgment of Mr. Charles G. Lathrop, or, after his death, in the judg-
ment of said President, be deemed unworthy to hold same by reason of his
failure in college work, unworthy behavior, idleness, or the acquisition
of bad habits, or an account of his want of appreciation of the advantages
of said Scholarship, then the award of the Scholarship to such holder may
be revoked, and a new appointment made by the said Lathrop, or the said
of President, as the case may be.
IV
The said Charles G Lathrop and, after his death, the said President,
on receipt of the income from said Trust property, shall use the same to
pay the living expenses, cost of books, fees and other necessary expenses of
the holder of such Scholarship.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF I have hereunto set my hand and seal this eighth day
of June, A.D. 1900. IN TRIPLICATE
(Sgd.) Jane L. Stanford.
