One of the reports of the Joint Committee on the Memorial of the Regents of the University of Maryland which found that university was not entitled to property solicited from the Legislature, as the school was a public institution and subject at all times by the state. The report includes a list of people who were Regents in 1825. The report is signed by Otho Scott, John McPherson, and Wm. Matthews.

"We have examined with some attention, the documents shown to us, and the statements of the parties; have heard the arguments of their counsel, and considered the questions of law, to which our attention has been directed, and after a patient investigation, we entertain an undoubting conviction that the memorialists have no shadow of claim to the property they solicit the Legislature to place under their control; but on the contrary, we feel assured that the property belongs to the State, upon the principle of justice and equity."--Page 3.
