Dear Mr. President:

I respectfully tender my resignation as of August 31,2005.
It has been a great privilege to serve the country as a member of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System. I am grateful to President Clinton and the
Senate for the confidence they showed in me in providing me with this opportunity.

I have had a most rewarding experience as a member of the Board of
Governors. I have valued the opportunity to work with Chairman Greenspan, the
other Governors, the Presidents of the Reserve Banks, and the extraordinary Board
staff.
During my time here I believe we have accomplished much. We have met
several difficult monetary challenges, and several diverse regulatory challenges. The
Federal Reserve was already an outstanding agency, and it has been very satisfying
to work to keep it abreast of economic and financial developments.
It has been an experience I will treasure always.
Sincerely,
