"When, on the night before he went out to France as an officer in The King's, Father and Mother asked him what memorial he wished if he were killed, he told them he would like to have a scholarship founded in his memory at Harvard. He wanted it controlled, if possible, by William G. Wendell [Burton's Harvard classmate and Fly brother] and me. He wanted Wendell to represent The Fly and me to represent The Society of St. John the Evangelist...He wished the scholarship to be primarily available for members of my monastic order and members of The Fly. Wendell and I were to arrange that, and I suppose to appoint our successors from members of The Fly and The Society of St. John. Caspar wanted his memorial to be at Harvard, and he said that what he valued most at Harvard were 'Spence's work and The Fly.'"
