The Diary of George Templeton Strong, Edited by Allan Nevins and Milton Halsey Thomas
November 9. Much engaged of late with Bidwell and William Curtis Noyes, trying to secure them as lecturers in our Columbia College Law School. Effort not desperate but rather promising, though Noyes is a director or trustee of the New York University on Washington Square., which has started a law school of its own with Judge Clerke and Peter Y. Cutler for its teachers.
