 To THE Board of Trustees of the Theological Seminary of 
 THE Protestant Episcopal Church in the Diocese of Ohio. 
 
 Gentlemen : 
 
 Having been appointed a committee to prepare for publieation a 
 statement of donations made to our Diocesan Institutions, tlie fol- 
 lowing is respectfully submitted. S. A. Bronson. * 
 
 To the Donors of the Theological Seminary and Kenyon 
 College. 
 
 Dear Friends : 
 
 As you have generously parted with the fruits of your toil, and 
 many of you have denied self, and abridged personal comforts to 
 advance an institution devoted to religion and learning, which you 
 are perhaps never to see, it is supposable that you may sometimes 
 inquire what has been done with those gifts? Has good been 
 effected ; is their value still preserved to bless coming ages ; or have 
 they been unwisely wasted or lavishly squandered for the personal 
 gratification of individuals ? Has the purpose of so frequent appeals 
 for funds been legitimate, and to supply reasonable wants, or to rem- 
 edy the effects of bad management ? Has the Institution arisen to 
 any thing that promises to be a credit to its founders and a blessing 
 to the Church? Have not the funds contributed been vastly out of 
 proportion to the results ? 
 
 The following view will, it is hoped, return aa adequate reply to 
 these and all questions that may be asked. Most will probably find 
 that less has been given, less lost by mistake and bad management, 
 and that the present position of the Institution, as to appliances and 
 
 * t ray request two others, the Rt. Rev. G. T. Bedell, D. D,, andPres't. Lorin 
 
 Andrews, LL. D., were added to the Committee, to -vThoin the whole has been 
 submitted for revision. 
 
fa<3ilities for instruction, and its prospect of growth and perma- 
 nency, are better, than is supposed! A friend was asked, not long 
 since, after viewing the buildings, making acquaintance with the 
 officers, and visiting them at their houses, " How much had been 
 given to these Institutions?" His answer was, more than double 
 the actual amount. If such impressions are common, it is time they 
 were corrected by a statement of facts. 
 
 This report, however, was suggested by a desire to offer a token 
 of gratitude to the Donors. Probably no institutions, of the im- 
 portance and extent of these, have ever been built up by the gifts 
 of so many, or nourished by so many praying hearts. May 
 Heaven's richest blessings crown them all, is the prayer of him who 
 writes this, and of the Board which he represents. 
 
 The first move ever made by Episcopalians, in Ohio, to apply to 
 Eastern Churches for aid to our Western frontier, was in a sugges- 
 tion of Bishop Chase, in his address to the Convention of the 
 Diocese, in 1821. After noticing the destitution of Ohio, and the 
 hopelessness of any supply, without special effort, Bishop C. urged 
 three points for the consideration of the Convention : 
 
 1. The formation of a Diocesan Missionary Society. 
 
 2. That an address be presented to Eastern Bishops and Churches, 
 asking pecuniary aid. 
 
 3. The appointment of a day of fasting and prayer. 
 
 In accordance with these suggestions, a Society was formed, of 
 which the Bishop was President ; the Rev. R. Searle, Vice-Presi- 
 dent ; Rev. Samuel Johnston, Recording Secretary ; Rev. P. Chase, 
 Jr., Corresponding Secretary ; and B. Grardiner, Esq., Treasurer. 
 The last Friday in August was set apart as a day of fasting and 
 prayer, and the Rev. P. Chase, Jr., was appointed an agent to apply 
 to Eastern Churches for aid. 
 
 The result of this application was the collection of $2,911 09. 
 This sum, for a number of years, afforded important aid in the sup- 
 port of missionaries throughout the wide wilderness of Ohio. 
 
 From this movement, and its results, two facts were ascertained 
 by the Church in Ohio : 
 
 1. That foreign aid could be had bj asking. 
 
 2. That money to support missionaries would be of but little use 
 unless men could be found. 
 
 31eanwhile, Bishop Chase's address to the Ohio Convention 
 
reached England. In the British Critic, for May, 1822, appeared 
 the following notice of the Journal of the Ohio Convention, writ- 
 ten by the Rev. Thomas Hartwell Home : 
 
 " Bishop Chase traveled, in the course of the year 1820, on horse- 
 back (which is the only way of visiting infiint settlements of that 
 country), a distance of 1271 miles/' Other remarks followed (bring- 
 ing the condition and wants of Ohio very fully before the British 
 public), founded particularly upon the appeal of the Church in Ohio 
 for missionary assistance. 
 
 Bishop-Chase says : " It was these representations in the British 
 Critic, noticed by his son in an American newspaper, and reported 
 by him to his father, which kindled hope in their almost despairing 
 minds, and led to a determination to visit a country where their 
 wants in the Western wilderness were thus known and pitied." It 
 was then determined that as money did not succeed in bringing mis- 
 sionaries to the West, an institution of learning must be provided 
 for their education. 
 
 Accordingly, in the year 1823, the Rev. Philander Chase, Jr., wa^ 
 appointed Agent, to visit England and apply for further aid. He 
 was authorized to draw upon the funds of the Missionary Society of 
 Ohio for his salary and expenses. But the health of this promis- 
 ing young man so rapidly failed, that he was unable to proceed. 
 
 Now it was that Bishop Chase himself determined to go to Eng- 
 land ; and accordingly started, August 4, 1823. He was favored 
 by the Hon. Henry Clay with a letter of introduction to the Bight 
 Hon. Admiral Lord Gambiei'. These two statesmen had met as 
 commissioners at the treaty of Ghent, in 1815, and by means of 
 their acquaintance Bishop Chase was at once introduced to some of 
 the most prominent and influential men in England. After the way 
 was prepared, and the object of his visit fully understood, he pro- 
 ceeded to execute a conditional deed of his farm at Worthington, 
 valued by him at $5000, to trustees in England, viz : Lords Kcnyon 
 and Gambler, the Rev. Geo. Gaskin, B. D., and Henry Hoare, Esq., 
 as afoundation for a Theological Seminary. Upon this farm the 
 Seminary was to be built, unless some other place should be offorcdj 
 which the Hon. Henry Clay should esteem equally valuable. Should 
 such a place be offered this deed was to be void. 
 
 The above-named Trustees then issued the following : " Appeal 
 
in Behalf of the Dioces'^ of Ohio, ifi the Wesferjt Territory of thf: 
 United States ; " 
 
 "The Episcopal Church of the United States of America derives 
 its origin from this country. Ten dioceses have been formed, nine 
 of vrhieh are in the Atlantic States, east of the Allegany Mount- 
 ains. Portions of two of these dioceses, those of Philadelphia and 
 Viraiuia. reach across the mountains, as they are co-extensive with 
 the respective States of Pennsylvania and Virginia ; but the diocese 
 of Ohio is the only diocese yet formed beyond those mountains in 
 the TTestern Territory of the States. 
 
 •• The pressing want of clergymen in this diocese has led the Kt, 
 Kev. Prelate, who has the care of its scattered parishes, to visit this 
 country, that he may procure that aid which is necessary to preserve 
 this infant Church from perishing, and which he had no hopes of 
 procuring elsewhere. 
 
 •' The Hon. Henry Clay. Speaker of the House of Eepresentative^ 
 •of the United States, himself an inhabitant of the State of Ken- 
 tucky, in the Western Territory, and perfectly acquainted with the 
 destitute condition of that Territory, in respect of Christian minis- 
 ters and sacred ordinances, addressed a letter to the Right Hon. 
 Admiral Lord Gambier, requesting his lordship's assistance in pro- 
 moting the object of Bishop Chase's visit to this country. 
 
 •• Lord G-ambier having introduced the subject to some of his 
 friends well acquainted with the constifu.tiou and proceedings of 
 the American Episcopal Church, they entered into a full examina- 
 tion of the claims of the Diocese of Ohio on Christian benevolence, 
 ■and the expediency of rendering the aid requested. The result 
 has been their full conviction that the spiritual wants of that dio- 
 cese call for special provision and assistance, and that appropriate 
 .and adequate provision for the supply of such wants requires the 
 establishment of an institution on the spot, in which natives of the 
 country may be prepared for the ministry at an expense within 
 their reach, and in habits suited to the sphere of their labors ; and 
 they are satisfied that this important object is not likely to be ac- 
 complished without liberal aid from this country.'" 
 
 Here the -Appeal '''' proceeds to state the grounds of their con- 
 victions, which it is not necessary here to repeat, and in conclusion 
 ■savs ,■ 
 
7 
 
 " The powerful appeal which these facts make to the benevolent 
 heart will not, as the friends of Bishop Chase are persuaded, be 
 made in vain. Adequate aid, furnished at this juncture, will con- 
 solidate and extend the efficiency of the American Church, by con- 
 tributing to supply with suitable ministers that vast mass of popu- 
 lation which is continually emigrating westward; while without 
 such aid the Church itself, established by such a course of self- 
 denying and unwearied toil, will dwindle and perish, and the popu 
 lation be given up to the unmitigated consequences of a famine of 
 the Divine ordinances." 
 
 " A subscription has therefore been opened in furtherance of the 
 object stated in this appeal. Henry Hoare, Esq., Banker, of Fleet 
 Street, is treasurer of the fund, the proceeds of which will be vested 
 in government securities till the same shall be drawn for by the 
 proper authorities in the Diocese of Ohio." 
 
 The evidence of the special object for which this fund was raised, 
 is fourid in Bishop Chase's "/^/ca for the Went' He says, p. 4 : 
 " No sooner was this appeal made to them (the English), than they 
 met and answered it with a liberal hand. ' Take,' said they, ' our 
 proportion in full to accomplish your great and benevolent design ] 
 but in so doing, our wishes are appropriate and just, that what we 
 give he regarded as a fund to he laid out in lands, or otherwise, for 
 (he permanent henefit of this and future generations.' " 
 
 The result will show that those wishes have been strictly com- 
 plied with. The money was first laid out in land, and w^as so kept 
 till, in the judgment of the Trustees, it would be " otherwise " more 
 productive. Now the land has been sold, and the fund entire in- 
 vested mainly in bond and mortgage.

 It is supposed that the sum of £100, given by Lady Rosse for 
 the specitic purpose of aiding in the erection of a College Chapel, is 
 included in the i!400 credited to her in the above list. Possibly, 
 it is not. At any rate, the connnenioration of this gift, by naming 
 the building after her — llos^ Chapel — was no wore than a jusi 
 tribute to her Christian generosity. She gave, at the same time, 
 anotlior £100 to aid the weak jiarishes of th;it day in building 
 . churches. 
 
 Thus far is the account published by the London Trustees, May 
 -2, 1824. It is not to be understood, however, as being the account 
 rendered upon their tiual settlement with Bishop Chase, as it is less 
 than half the amount collected in England. The full account can 
 not be found in this country. Should any friend in England fall in 
 with it, he will confer a favor by indicating where, and how, it may 
 be obtained, that the names of all the donors may be remembered. 
 This loss makes Bishop Chase's accounts none the less satisfactory, 
 as his statement, often published in this country, that the whole 
 amount was rising 830,000 was approved, at least by the silence of 
 the English Trustees. 
 
 The names, however, of several of the other donors, will appear 
 from the following extracts from Bishop Chase's correspondence and 
 addresses, after bis return to this country: 
 
 '• When Bishop Chase arrived in England, a train of providences 
 prepared the way for his favorable reception, and the interesting 
 claims of religion and learning, in Ohio, were taken hold of by men 
 who stand highest among the examples of Christian benevolence in 
 England. Among these were Lords Gambier, Kenyon, and Bex- 
 ley, and k'^ir Thomas Acland, among the nobility, and Dr. Gaskin^ 
 Mr. Pratt, Mr. Marriott, and others, some of the most distinguished 
 of the clergy and gentry. An appeal, addressed to the British pub- 
 lic, was prepared by the editors of the Christian Oh&erver, and Ckrit- 
 tian Guanlidv, by several of the officers of the Society for Promoting 
 Christian Knowledge, and of the Church Missionary Society ; an 
 appeal which eventuated in raising at least §30,000." — Committee 
 of the Oh io Oni vrji lion . 
 
 Most interesting letters (the originals of which, neatly bound in 
 a volume, have lately been presented to the library of the Institu- 
 tion by Rev. Dudley Chase) were addressed to Bishop Chase, from 
 a daughter of the celebrated Jones, of Nayland, Admiral Lord 
 
t 
 
 15 
 
 Gambier, Lord Kenyon, the Bishop of London, the Archbishop of 
 Canterbury, and Lord Bexley. 
 
 The following is from the daughter of a highly respectable 
 clergyman. At the time this was written she was only fourteen 
 years of age, and so great was her interest, that by her industry she 
 had raised nearly $35 toward the object, and says to Bishop Chase : 
 " May I beg of you to give my affectionate love to your children, 
 and tell them how little deserving I feel myself of their love, and 
 of my most honorable title of Mary Ohio. I wish it were in my 
 power to prove myself better entitled to one and the other ; but I 
 believe I shall easily gain credence when I say, that to repay to 
 Ohio one iota of those blessings which I have received from her, 
 would be a real happiness to me. ^ * I will thank you for 
 your great kindness to me, who can only wish you well, and can 
 plead your cause in no other way than by sometimes whispering, 
 ' there is a rose in the West, whose head is drooping for want of 
 watering, and her stem bending for want of propping.' " 
 
 One of the contributors that should by no means be forgotten, 
 was Mrs. Hannah More, who took a deep interest in Bishop Chase's 
 plans, and herself subscribed £50. 
 
 Bishop Chase, in his address to the Convention in 1824, says of 
 the English people, in reference to the Ohio Seminary : " Never 
 was benevolence more disinterested ; never was zeal more active. 
 The task of solicitation being assumed by the most respectable 
 characters, the rich feasts of intellectual intercourse and Christian 
 courteousness were every-where spread before me." 
 
 One occurrence, or rather series of occurrences, seems stranger 
 than fiction. One day, long before Bishop Chase thought of ever 
 going to England, having been at work on his farm at Worthing- 
 ton, at the close of the day he penned a letter to Dr. Jarvis, in an- 
 swer to one of inquiry respecting the condition of the Church in 
 the West. This letter became a little stained with blood from a 
 crack in the Bishop's hand, for which he apologized, by saying he 
 had just come in from work. Dr. Jarvis, in answer to inquiries 
 from one of the Scottish Bishops respecting the condition of the 
 Church in this country, sent Bishop Cliase's letter just as he had 
 received it. The daughter of this Bishop (DuflF. McFarlane) was 
 then in England, at the death-bed of John Bowdlcr, Esq., when she 
 received a letter from her father, inclosing that sent by Dr. Jarvis, 
 
16 
 
 from Bishop Chase. She read the letter to the dying man, and was 
 directed by him to take from his drawer a purse containing ten 
 guineas, and by the first convenient opportunity send it to Bishop 
 Chase. When in after years Bishop Chase was in England, Duff. 
 McFarlane invited him to breakfast one morning, after which she 
 astonished him by showing him his own letter to Dr. Jarvis, and 
 handing over the ten guineas. 
 
 Bishop Chase, being on an agency for the Church, refused to 
 receive any private gifts, and appropriated it for the purchase of 
 communion plate for Rosse Chapel, which was afterward con- 
 sumed in Bishop Chase's house in Michigan. 
 
 By the contributions of some friends a set of plate for the ad- 
 ministration of the communion in private was also purchased for 
 the use of the Bishop of Ohio. 
 
 In 1825, Bishop C. says : " with respect to our affairs in England, 
 it becomes my duty to state that, besides the permanent fund, now 
 rising five thousand guineas, there remained, at the last advices, a 
 large collection of books still in London, given by different most 
 benevolent individuals ; also, the stereotype plates for our Prayer- 
 Book, and a separate fund for a most complete set of printing 
 types, to carry into effect an essential part of our plan. Of the 
 books given in England, already arrived in America, some, together 
 with 112 pairs of blankets, a large pair of globes (given by Miss 
 Ann Rust), and a set of mathematical instruments, are on the way 
 from New York hither. 
 
 In 1826, mention is made in Bishop Chase's address as follows : 
 " It will be remembered that this complete and ample set of type, 
 together with £100 sterling, to purchase a printing press in this 
 country, is the avails of a most munificent subscription, separate 
 from that of the fund, which subscription was originated and circu- 
 lated among the ladies of the nobility of England by that most ex- 
 cellent person, Lady Acland, of Devonshire. ^ ^ I am happy 
 to add that, by a letter received yesterday from my worthy and 
 most esteemed friend, Gr. W. Marriott, Esq., of London, it appears 
 that this fountain of benevolence is not yet dried up. In his letter 
 dated March 5th, he observes, 'there is a surplus of £50 from the 
 printing press subscription. This Sir Thomas Acland begs me to 
 dispose of.' " 
 
 Intelligence had also been received that an organ for the chapel 
 
17 
 
 had been completed, and five hundred and forty-six volumes added 
 to the library. 
 
 In 1827, it is further stated : " In England, too, the fountain is 
 by no means exhausted. A box of books, worth several hundred 
 dollars — including Walton's Polj^glot Bible, and many of the 
 Fathers and standard books- — was sent us during the last winter, as 
 the gift of the Eight Hon. Lord Kenyon and the Rev. Dr. Ward, 
 of Great Horenly ; and I am lately informed that Mrs. Walker, 
 daughter of the late excellent William Jones, of Nayland, has 
 caused to be prepared, in London, a most valuable telescope for the 
 use of the students of Kenyon College." 
 
 In 1830, appears Bishop Chase's final notice of the English 
 benefactions, as follows : " A plain statement of facts which have 
 taken place since the Rev. Mr. West went to England, if I recol- 
 lect aright, is this : I received from Lord Kenyon, to be considered 
 as the legacy of his daughter, the late Hon. Margaret Langham, 
 £500 ; also, in a draft from Thomas Bates, Esq., £100 ; also, from 
 G. W. Marriott, Esq., of London, as the avails of Mr. West's col- 
 lection, £400— making in all £1,000." 
 
 Such are the pleasing evidences of the kind interest which the 
 English Church took in the founding of the Theological Seminary 
 of the Diocese of Ohio, and Kenyon College. 
 
 Efforts made for the Seminary and College in the 
 United States, by Bishop Chase. 
 
 It will be proper next, to consider the efforts made by Bishop 
 Chase, in behalf of these institutions, in his own country. His first 
 step, after returning from England, was to fix upon a site for the 
 Seminary and College. His conditional deed of donation left him 
 at liberty to seek another location, if Henry Clay should approve. 
 Mrs. Betsey Reed, of Putnam, 0., had made a liberal offer of 1,000 
 acres of land on Elm Creek, twelve miles north of Columbus. 
 This was first adopted, and something was done toward a beginning 
 upon it. 
 
 Meanwhile Bishop Chase had his attention called, by Daniel S. 
 Norton, P]sq., and Henry B. Curtis, Esq., of Mount Vernon, to a tract 
 of land, 8,000 acres, in Knox county, lying five miles east of the 
 
18 
 
 county-seat. The land was ovrned by William Hogg, Esq., of 
 Brownsville. Penn., and appeared to Bishop C. so well adapted to 
 his purpose, that he immediately made a contract for it at S3 per 
 acre, subject to the approval of the Trustees and Henry Clay. After 
 mature deliberation, it was decided to approve the purchase, and 
 locate the Seminary where it now is. 3Ir. Hogg generously con- 
 sented to donate one-fourth of the price of the land, S6.000, and 
 upon the receipt of $18,000, conveyed the title to the Trustees of 
 the Theological Seminary of the Diocese of Ohio. Then com- 
 menced the struggles which have resulted in the establishment of 
 the present institutions — the Theological Seminary of the Diocese 
 of Ohio, and Kenyon College. 
 
 The following is an extract from an •• Appeal in helialf of Re- 
 ligion and Learning in Ohio.''' published by Bishop Chase, and dated 
 Xov. 21, 1826. After noticing the results of his appeal to English 
 friends, he says : 
 
 '•TTith a heart deeply penetrated by grateful emotions for such 
 unexampled benevolence from a foreign fountain, the undersigned 
 would turn with reasonable confidence, and with great respect, to 
 his own countrymen; and while he does so, he offers an anxious 
 prayer to God, that he may find favor in their sight. 
 
 ■' He earnestly desires them to consider, that the steps taken by 
 the undersigned have been approved by the Christian world, and by 
 his own community in Ohio in particular : that the Convention of 
 Ohio having framed a constitution, and appointed trustees of the 
 intended institution in conformity to acknowledged principles, the 
 civil legislature has established the same as a corporate body ; that 
 a tract of land of great intrinsic worth, especially as a future sure 
 and increasing revenue to the College, has been purchased at a very 
 reduced price, and the Seminary and College permanently fixed 
 thereon ; and that for the payment of this land, consisting of 8,000 
 acres, the funds collected in England have, in a good measure, been 
 pledged. 
 
 ''The result of all this is the imperious necesaity of o'htaining 
 means to erect the requisite buildings. That this necessity may 
 appear undisputed, let the greatness of the undertaking, and the 
 smallness of the means hitherto obtained, (however munificent in 
 themselves,) be compared, and how conspicuous will be the dis- 
 parity ! What college was ever reared with only $30,000 ? If we 
 
19 
 
 saw our building now erected, and if the funds obtained in England 
 were noiv at interest, the whole would constitute but a beginning — 
 but the foundation of so great a work. What, then, must be the 
 solicitude of every true Christian and lover of his country, for th« 
 fate of this benevolent work, when he is told that the buildings are 
 scarcely commenced^ and the funds, according to the designs of the 
 donors, are invested more fov permanent than for present use? Was 
 it unreasonable, when the undersigned stipulated with the benefac- 
 tors in England, that if they would contribute toward the perma- 
 nent fund, his own country, America^ would furnish means for the 
 buildings? . To refuse such a condition, would have been a stain on 
 his native land. The honor, therefore, of the American name, 
 unites with the goodness of the cause, in sustaining the fervent 
 hope and humble trust that this stipulation will be fulfilled. The 
 Ohio Seminary will succeed. Americans will do something to erect 
 the buildings, when their religious brethren in England have done 
 so much for its permanent support. -^ >'f •:^ ^ 
 
 €rod save our country from ignorance and sin, through Jesus Christ 
 Gur Lord. Philander Chase." 
 
 " P. S. Such benevolent persons as find it in their hearts to 
 contribute, are requested to send their benefactions to either of the 
 following gentlemen : 
 
 Leonard Kip, Esq., President of the North River Bank. 
 
 William Jones, Esq., Philadelphia. 
 
 Com. Tingey, Washington, 
 
 Joseph McNeil, Esq., New Orleans. 
 
 Charles Sigourney, Esq., Hartford. 
 
 E. A. Newton, Esq., Boston.'' 
 To the above appeal there was, as will hereafter appear, a gener- 
 'Ous response. 
 
 This p?ca was made in 1826. In 1828, we find Bishop Chase 
 •entreating Congress for a grant of a township of land. In this he 
 was disappointed. A bill passed the Senate, but in the House was 
 crowded out by a press of business. Though foiled in this, he did 
 wot despair. In trying times Bishop Chase was never without an 
 expedient. When there was no opposition nor difficulty, he might 
 be at a loss what to do, and how to expend his mighty energies ; 
 but when wind and current were against him, he commonly found 
 in them the very elements of success. 
 
20 
 
 At this time he published his ^^ Star in the West; or, Kenyon 
 College in the Year of our Lord, 1828." 
 
 After giving a history of his application to Congress and its fail- 
 ure, and recounting the pressing necessities of the College, Bishop 
 Chase says: A sniall sum only is ashed of every friend of every name 
 and class. ^ ^ Whoever reads this is, therefore, most respect- 
 fully and earnestly entreated to send one dollar in aid of the 
 present struggles of Kenyon College." What the precise efifcct of 
 this plea was, it is impossible novf to say. It is said that the dol- 
 lars came to Gambler as leaves fall in Autumn, but there is no 
 distinction made in the account rendered, between the results of 
 this and of the former appeal. 
 
 In the year 1829, Bishop Chase rendered the following account 
 of all the donations he had received in this country; and as at the 
 close he appeals to the donors themselves, to inform him if any 
 thing was omitted, and then published it to the world, it affords the 
 best evidence the case admits of, that all the funds contributed were 
 accounted for :

 By the exertions of a Reverend brxitlier in the City of Phila- 
 delphia,^ the late appeal made by me has resulted in several dona- 
 tions, amounting to $400 actually received. By advices from that 
 brother of late date, I understand that 8100 additional may be 
 expected soon, and a still further sum of SlOO promised at a longer 
 period. For this whole sum we are to be indebted to the congrega- 
 tion of St. Andrew's Church, $200 of which is from a society of 
 ladies, the result of their own work. 
 
 N. B. If in the multiplicity of cares, the Bishop has omitted to 
 insert the name of any donor, (in which the Seminary would be the 
 loser,) or any donation has been twice acknowledged, by being 
 included in any aggregate sum, and also set down separately in the 
 above list, (in which case the Bishop would be loser,) it is earnestly 
 requested that such mistake be immediately communicated for cor- 
 rection. — Bishop Chase's Pamphlet, 1829. 
 
 St. George's Church Scholarship. 
 In addition to the above, it should be stated, that St. George's 
 €hurch paid into the treasury of the Institution, 81,000, in consid- 
 eration of which, that Church was forever to have the privilege of 
 keeping, at Kenyon, a student for the ministry, at the charge of the 
 Institution for board, tuition, washing, fuel, and lights, during the 
 forty weeks of term time. This could have been done at that time, 
 when the charges for these items in College were only 870, but it 
 would be a hard bargain if enforced now, when these bills are more 
 than doubled. 
 
 MiLNOR Professorship. 
 Respecting this professorship very little can be ascertained. Dr. 
 Tyng writes that he knows nothing of its origin. From statements 
 
 * Rev, B, Allen, 
 
31 
 
 made incidentally by Bishop Ciiase, at different times, it appears 
 that Arthur Tappan, of New York, originated the movement by 
 offering $1,000, provided $10,000 should be subscribed. Bishop 
 Chase contributed $1,000 ; but who made up the balance, can not 
 now be ascertained. There were some failures of subscription, and 
 Bishop Chase's gift was absorbed in the treasury ; so that when 
 Bishop Chase resigned, the fund in the hands of the New York 
 trustees was considerably less than $10,000. This has since been 
 made up by St. George's Church contributing $2,500. 
 
 This fund is under the entire control of trustees appointed by the 
 vestry of St. Gleorge's Church, the interest of which, according to 
 the conditions of the subscription, was forever to be applied to the 
 support of the " Milnor Professor of Systematic Divinity in the 
 Theological Seminary of the Diocese of Ohio." 
 
 The nomination of the incumbent was to be made by the Bector 
 of St. George's Church during the life of Dr. Milnor, and ten years 
 afterward. 
 
 Those who have given these funds will here very naturally inquire 
 how they have been expended. In this respect, very little was at 
 the option of Bishop Chase. In building an institution of learning 
 amid a dense forest, the first thing to be done would be to hire 
 workmen and build shanties for them to live in. In the absence of 
 markets, and amid a very sparse squatter population, lands must be 
 cleared and grounds tilled to afford workmen the means of living. 
 As nothing in the way of building could be done without lumber, 
 and this could not be had in sufficient quantities at any reasonable 
 price, mills must be erected for its manufacture. For this, too, heavy 
 ox teams, and all the costly appliances of hauling saw-logs and 
 lumber must be provided. A flouring mill was also needed to fur- 
 nish material for the staff of life. Thus, in almost every particular 
 after Gambier was chosen, it was necessary to begin with the very 
 elements of civilization. 
 
 But the Institution must soon be in operation, that funds might 
 be coming in, and a right influence going out ; and yet the first 
 buildings for the use of students must, from the brief time allowed, 
 nearly all be temporary. To erect such, would be the dictate of 
 
32 
 
 prudence and sound judgment; but in this case it was necessity, 
 which knows no law. Nearly all the buildings that Bishop Chase 
 erected, at an expense nearly equal to the amount of what was col- 
 lected in this country, were temporary, and have since entirely 
 disappeared. The whole amount collected by Bishop Chase, in the 
 United States, was about S18,000, and the cost of buildings that 
 were temporary, of cleiiring and fencing farms, and farming stock 
 and implements, was put down by him, in 1830, at $17,217. 
 
 The balance of the $30,000 obtained in Europe, after paying for 
 the land, was also invested in building, and a considerable debt 
 incurred besides, which was afterward paid by the sale of lands. 
 But Bishop Chase's works were not all temporary. The central 
 part of the building, known as Kenyon College, 110 feet by 40, 
 with walls of stone four feet in thickness at the base, was built by 
 him, and will stand while time shall last, a fitting monument of 
 such a man as Bishop Chase. The foundation, also, of Rosse Chapel 
 was laid by him, and above $3,000 expended upon it ; but upon a 
 plan entirely different from the one afterward adopted, when it was 
 built with funds solicited by Bishop McIIvaine. 
 
 The Institution was thus brought in debt, which was afterward 
 liquidated by a sale of the north half of the original purchase. A 
 circumstance ought to be mentioned here, to elicit information. 
 Bishop Chase says, in his defense, page fifteen : " Seventeen lots and 
 out-lots are bargained away and paid for;" but what particular lots 
 they were, and who purchased them, has not been ascertained. The 
 sum of $1,310, received on this account, was acknowledged by 
 Bishop Chase. No deeds were ever given, and the money must 
 have been intended rather as a donation than as the price of a pur- 
 chase, else the trustees would have been asked to refund. 
 
 The following communication of Philander Chase Freeman, Esq., 
 and found in the " Statistics of the Philomathesian Society^'' p. 27, 
 gives a vivid idea of what Grambier was at the time here referred to : 
 
 "When I first entered Kenyon, then located at Worthington, 
 Ohio was in its infancy, and its inhabitants not much advanced in 
 knowledge or even civilization. My first years at Kenyon were 
 spent in a log cabin for my study. I went to Gambler before the 
 College was erected, and before any improvements were made on the 
 College Hill. The first night I spent on the College Hill, was in a 
 cabin of boughs, covered with English blankets, the donation of 
 
33 
 
 Englisli liberality, while the foundations of Kenyon College were 
 being laid. In the winter of 1827, I was engaged in teaching the 
 first rudiments of the English language to original settlers, in a log 
 cabin, situated about forty rods north-west of the College building, 
 on the banks of ' Owl creek,' alias Yernon river. I spent three 
 months of the winter of 1828, in Perry township, teaching the good 
 people's children. My terms of tuition were $2,00 per scholar for 
 three months, payable in corn at ten cents per bushel, and wheat at 
 twenty-five cents per bushel. I had a school of eighty scholars and 
 upward. My recompense in corn and wheat all went to Kenyon to 
 pay for my board and tuition. The College was not completed to 
 receive inhabitants till about three months before I received my 
 degree ; consequently, during all my college course, I lived in tem- 
 porary buildings, except three months." 
 
 Bishop Chase's Defense, 
 
 After Bishop Chase returned from England, one Gr. M. West 
 insinuated himself into the good graces of Lords Kenyon and 
 Gambler, and came to this country upon their recommendation, for 
 the purpose of receiving Holy Orders. Soon after his ordination, 
 West, under the title of Chaplain to the Bishop of Ohio, went to 
 England, to superintend the further collection of funds for Kenyon 
 College. After his return to this country in 1830, it not only ap- 
 peared that he was entirely unworthy of confidence himself, but he 
 originated the most grievous charges against Bishop Chase. This, 
 though painful, was most opportune. The dollars from "friends," 
 in answer to the Bishop's earnest appeal, began to be few and far 
 between. Kenyon still needed funds, and unless some untoward 
 event had occurred. Bishop Chase even would have been at a loss 
 what to do. But now he so completely vindicated himself and his 
 acts, in a pamphlet addressed to Dr. Mil nor, that many of his 
 "friends" thought it time to send him another "t/o?/a?'." Accord- 
 ingly, the following sums were received during the years 1830 and 
 1831.

 Thus closes the record of Bishop Chase's labors, and their results, 
 in founding a Theological Seminary and College, lie probably 
 had no superior in all the qualities necessary to originate such an 
 institution. The versatility of his manners was such, that he could 
 adapt himself readily to any condition of society. Whether he 
 were in the log cabin of Ohio, where the whole family slept, ate. 
 cooked, received guests and lodged them, in the same apartment, or 
 in the magnificent halls of Lord Kcnyon, surrounded with the 
 refinement of the old world, Bishop Chase was equally at home, 
 and capable of winning golden opinions. Add to this an energy 
 that never flagged, a will that never succumbed, and a physical 
 system that never tired, and we have such a character as is seldom 
 produced, but which was precisely adapted to the great work that 
 he accomplished. Bishop Chase was equally remarkable for indus- 
 try and endurance. Daylight seldom found him in bed, and he 
 
37 
 
 seemed as fond of working or traveling in tlie rain, as thougli 
 water were his native element. He would preach at Perry, fifteen 
 miles from Gambier, and as soon as daylight peeped in the East on 
 Monday morning, take his bridle himself, go to the field, catch Cin- 
 cinnatus, mount and be off to set his head-men at work in Gambier. 
 Bishop Chase began a work for the Church in Ohio, and in truth 
 for the whole West, such as no other man then living would have 
 attempted, or probably could have accomplished. 
 
 Bishop McIlvaine's Appeal for Funds in 1833. 
 
 In 1832 Bishop Mcllvaine undertook the care of the Diocese and 
 Seminary. The first step necessary to put the Institution in a 
 working condition, was to provide the means of erecting buildings. 
 All except the" one college edifice, 110 by 40, and the kitchen 
 part of one professors's residence, were temporary structures, and 
 have since entirely disappeared. After Bishop Chase left, and 
 before Bishop Mcllvaine came, something had been done in the 
 way of building, but nothing to provide means, except the sale of 
 lands; and the avails of these were needed to pay debts. In truth, 
 as yet, only the foundation of the Seminary was laid. The super- 
 structure must be reared. For this Bishop Mcllvaine made an 
 appeal to his friends, and the friends of the Church, in the East. 
 The following is the result : 
 
 Subscriptions to the Theological Seminary of the Dio- 
 cese OF Ohio, to aid in the Erection op New Buildings, 
 obtained by the Bt. Rev. C. P. McIlvaine, D. D., in 1833.

 A Temporary Professorship in the Theological 
 Seminary. 
 
 While the preceding collections were in progress, another import- 
 ant object was accomplished, mainly in New York and Brooklyn : 
 viz., to provide for a five year's Professorship in the Theological 
 Seminary. It was by this means that, in connection with the Mil- 
 nor Professorship, the organization of the Theological Seminary 
 was first completed. Till now the Rev. Dr. Sparrow, sustained in 
 part by the Milnor Professorship, devoted his time mainly to aca- 
 demical instruction. In 1833, however, classes were organized in 
 the Seminary, and regular recitations begun. The Rev. Dr. Spar- 
 row being Milnor Professor of Systematic Divinity, and the Rev. 
 Dr. Muenscher Professor of Biblical Literature.

 Subscription for Building a House, at G-ambier, for the 
 Bishop of the Diocese. 
 
 At Bishop Chase's settlement with the Trustees, in 1829, the sum 
 of S3, 037 was found to be due to him. Of this sum he gave 82,000 
 to the Institution, 81,000 of which was on condition that it be 
 applied toward building a house for the Bishop of the Diocese, upon 
 a site to be designated by himself. The site was not designated, 
 and the building not erected. 
 
 Upon the consecration of Bishop McIlvaiDe, an unsuccessful 
 effort was made in the diocese to raise funds for this purpose, and 
 although only the following sums were obtained, a house was erected 
 for the Bishop, by the Institution :

 Collection in Ohio by Bev. Dr. Sparrow, in 1839. 
 
 It is well known that buildings commonly cost more than is an- 
 ticipated. So it was at Grambier. When the buildings were com- 
 pleted, for which funds had been solicited in 1833, there was a debt 
 of some $16,000, and there seemed no way to meet it, unless the 
 Church in Ohio could be persuaded to do its share of the work. 
 This, the Trustees determined to attempt. The Bev. Dr. Sparrow 
 was requested to undertake the agency; and, considering the pe- 
 cuniary depression of the times, and the partial application made, 
 the effort was successful. 
 
 The whole sum subscribed was 87.348 82, of which 8605 25 was 
 cash, and the balance in notes of hand, which have been paid only 
 in part, and some after years of delay. 
 
 The names of those prompt men who paid cash are not now to be 
 found. The following is an account of the notes, so far as they 
 appear to have been paid :

 A Second Effusion of English Benevolence. 
 
 In the year 1835, Bishop Mcllvaine made a visit to England; 
 and, as was quite natural when there, sought the society of those 
 clergy of the English Church with whom he more particularly 
 sympathized. It was the practice, at that time, of some of the Lon- 
 don clergy, to the number of about one hundred, to meet statedly 
 at Islington, for the purpose of clerical conference and communion, 
 and for social prayer. E,ev. Daniel Wilson, then recently made 
 Bishop of Calcutta, and the Bev. Thomas Hartwell Home, were 
 among the number. 
 
 To this meeting Bishop Mcllvaine was invited; and when there, was 
 asked to give an account of the condition and prospects of religion in 
 his own country and Diocese. In doing so, our Bishop spoke of the 
 " vastly greater increase of population than of clergy ; and how many 
 of the inhabitants of those destitute regions are emigrants from Eng- 
 land, accustomed once to the green pastures of our parent Church." 
 After alluding to the tide of immigration by which this wonderful 
 growth has been effected, as still flowing and still swelling, and 
 stating that such is the extent of new land to be occupied, and such 
 
44 
 
 the fertility of the soil in general, that population may continue for 
 a long time to flow on at its present ratio of increase, without a 
 check from deficiency of room, or of maintenance. He urg^d it 
 as an interesting and affecting consideration to Christians of Great 
 Britain, that a very large part of this living stream is directly from 
 among themselves. " Not only is the Popery of those regions 
 transplanted, in a great measure, by settlers from the United King- 
 dom, but among the hundreds of thousands for whom the ministry 
 is to be supplied, ^ * Protestant Englishmen and Protestant 
 Irishmen, with their families, are every-where seen, sometimes in 
 colonies almost by themselves, at other times mixed up with people 
 from other countries ; but every-where entreating him most earnestly 
 to send them the ministry, with the ordinances to which they were 
 once accustomed." This was listened to by the assembled clergy 
 with profound attention. 
 
 Then the Lord Bishop of Calcutta asked our Bishop what he 
 would have them do, or rather what they could do for him and his 
 Diocese? Though our Bishop had not intended to appeal to the 
 liberality of the British public, yet when thus generously pressed, 
 he suggested the need of a building expressly for theological stu- 
 dents. 
 
 Accordingly, a plan, with minute working drafts and a papier 
 mache model, was gotten up by Mr. Henry Roberts, a London Archi- 
 tect ; after which plan Baxley Hall has been erected at Gambier, 
 with funds obtained chiefly in England; a building, the beauty of 
 which has not been surpassed by any of like dimensions in Ohio.

 N. B. — The name of the one through whom a donation is made, is not in all 
 cases put down, and small sums, anonymous, have, in some cases, been grouped 
 ■together. 
 
 The reader will notice with pleasure how much of the collecting 
 for benevolent objects is done in England by voluntary agents, 
 occupying prominent positions in society. 
 
 In addition to the above, Bishop Mcllvaine, in his address to tho 
 Convention, in 1835, mentioned the receipt of 1,902 volumes for

50 
 
 the Library, from friends in England. The veneraBle Mrs. Has-- 
 nah More, at the close of life, remembered Ohio, and bequeathed to- 
 Sir Thomas Acland £200, in trust for its Bishop ; the particular 
 object to be designated by her executor. It was designated as the* 
 foundation for a scholarship in the Theological Seminary, the inter- 
 est being always applicable to the support of a student in that^ 
 department. 
 
 This visit of Bishop McIIvaine resulted in the following pleasing 
 interchange of sentiment between the members of the English Uni- 
 versities and those of our own Seminary and College : 
 
 To THE Right Reverend Charles P. McIlyaine, D. D., Bishop of Ohio,. 
 
 AND PkESIDKNT OF KeNYON CoELESE, IN THE UNITED StATES 01 AMERICA. 
 
 Eight Eevej-end Sir — The undersigned, Bachelors and Undergraduates 
 of the University of Oxford, have learned with cordial sympathy the objects' 
 of your mission to this country. 
 
 Ourselves participators in the blessings of an University, founded by the 
 liberality and piety &f our common ancestors, we can not but take a deep 
 interest in the progress of an institution which, under circumstances of 
 greater difficulty, is entering in a distant land on the same course of religious- 
 and useful learning. 
 
 Nor is it forgotten by us, that Kenyon College, no less than our own vener- 
 able University, is intimately connected with the Protestant Episcopal Church. 
 We rejoice to know, that its religious instruction is superintended by a Brancb 
 of the Church of Christ, which we esteem it a privilege to greet as the daugh- 
 ter of our Apostolical Establishment. And we reflect with the kindest feel- 
 ings of Christian fellowship, that in one faith, one language, and one form of 
 expression, our brother Students in Ohio and ourselves daily warship the 
 God of our Fathers. 
 
 With such sentiments we are anxious to offer to you, sir, and the members of 
 Kenyon College, the assurance of a sympathy, which we trust will not be 
 unacceptable to them, by contributing toward the erection of the proposed 
 Theological College. 
 
 In requesting you to be the channel through which we may convey these- 
 feelings, we desire to join with them an expression of the regret and esteem 
 with which we regard your own character as a Theologian and a Christian 
 Bishop. Earnestly do we pray, that it may please God to give you a prosper- 
 ous journey to your native land; and long to preserve the blessings of youf 
 oversight to His Church, where amid the increasing labors of your Diocese, 
 and the arduous struggle that is prepared for the Members of the College over 
 which you preside, we venture to hope that You and They will sometimes 
 
51 
 
 remember with pleasure, that "we have wished you good luck, ye that are of 
 the House of the Lord." 
 
 We have the honor to remain, Right Reverend Sir, with every sentiment 
 of esteem and respect, your attached and faithful Servants.

 And two hundred and eighty-six others. Members and Undergraduates 
 of eighteen different Colleges. 
 
 Trinity College, Cambridge, May 25, 1835. 
 My Dear Friend — On your leaving England to return to your arduous 
 duties in Ohio, there are many here who wish to express to you the deep 
 interest they feel in your welfare, and in the prosperity of your College and 
 Diocese. We desire particularly to cherish the feelings of our entire oneness 
 with those churches in the United States, which the Lord has intrusted to your 
 oversight; and we would assure them, through you, of our affectionate sym- 
 pathy and regard. We are attached to them, not merely as Christians who 
 love and serve the same Lord and Saviour; but as Brethren, descended from 
 the same ancestors, who speak the same language, adopt the same articles and 
 ritual, and acknowledge the same orders. 
 
 We thank God, also, for his abundant mercy vouchsafed to them of late in 
 the OTitpouving of Plis Holy Spirit; for the revival among them of sound and 
 fervent piety ; and for their zealous and devoted efforts in the cause of missions. 
 
 We earnestly pray that these great blessings may long be experienced bj 
 them ; and that stimulated by their example, and seeking in the same spirit, 
 we may ourselves in due season be visited by the same mercies — that our col- 
 leges may become seminaries at once of sound learning and religious educa- 
 tion; and that our beloved Church may be yet, more than ever, a blessing and 
 a praise in our land. 
 
 Retaining as we do the most affectionate remembrance of your late visit to 
 our University, and accompanying you with our best wishes in all your labors 
 for the Lord, we can not but request your prayers in i-eturn, that the Lord of 
 the Harvest may bless the good seed which He permitted you to sow here; 
 and that m«ny laborers may be sent out from the midst of us into the wide 
 harvest of the world. 
 
 Thus may our respective countries be one in blessings — in labors — and in 
 love, — and animated, henceforth, with the only rivalry of holy zeal for the 
 glory of our common Lord, may we provoke one another to love and to good 
 works, and put forth our united energies to the spreading of the knowledge of 
 the Redeemer's love. 
 
 Believe me, my dear friend, ever yours*, very affectionately in Christian 
 bonds, 
 
 WILLIAM CARUS. 
 To the Right Rev. Bi*. McIlvaink.

 We beg to express io Bishop Mcllvaine our concurrence in the sentiments 
 of the foregoing letter. 
 
 Signed, C. SIMEON, M. A., of King's College, 
 
 CHARLES TERRY. M. A., Fellow and Assistant 
 Tutor of Trinity College, 
 And eighty-seven others, Members and Undergraduates of thirteen 
 different Colleges. 
 
 The following is tlie answer of tlie Students of Kenyon Col- 
 lege to the Uniyersity of Oxford — that to Cambridge being to the 
 same effect. 
 
 To Messes. George Trevor, J. E. Giles, ajjd Others, Bachelors and 
 Undergraduates of the Uniyersity of Oxford. 
 Gentlemen — The undersigned, Students in Theology, and Undergraduates 
 of Kenyon College, have received through our President, the Rt. Rev. Bp. 
 Mcllvaine, the expression of your affectionate dispositions toward us, and the 
 Institutions of ■which we are members. 
 
 Rightly have you judged that such a token of your sympathy would not be 
 unacceptable. Standing as we do, almost on the western limit of civilization 
 in North America, -it would be strange indeed did we not receive with the 
 most kindlj feelings a salutation so fraternal, sent across the broad AtlantiCj 
 from the Bachelors and Undergraduates of your venerable University. 
 
 We bear in mind that while our Alma Mater is but of yesterday, yours is, 
 in antiquity, second only to one other, and yields in no other particular to 
 any ; and that while you number your thousands of fellow-students, we can 
 not even count our hundreds. But together with this thought, your commu- 
 nication suggests and cherishes in our hearts the hope that, in time to come, 
 men will regard our present small beginnings, as we now look back to the 
 state of things at Oxford, when your predecessors, in the days of Alfred, began 
 their labors. 
 
 We are led also, by your salutation, to recognize and feel the importance 
 of our position. As Oxford, once small and feeble, has long been a blessing 
 to the ends of the earth, why may it not be believed, that Kenyon is called to 
 the same high destiny; and through the smiles of God upon the encour- 
 agement and aid of our British friends, and upon our own vigorous exer- 
 tions, will yet fulfil it. The world is before us all, as the wide and inviting 
 field of benevolent exertion ; and it is our desire, as being one with you in 
 origin, language, literature, and religion — having "one Lord, one faith, one 
 "baptism " — to be one also in all the great eflbrts of Christian enterprise. And 
 should Kenyon become, in the Providence of God, a source of blessing, in any 
 measure, to this continent, it will be no small gratification to her sons, that 
 multitudes from the very country which so generously helped to lay her 
 foundations and erect her walls, VvHl be partakers in the benefit, and thus 
 enjoy some of the privileges of learning and religion, the loss of which is so 
 
53 
 
 keenly felt by tlie intelligent British emigrants. We are bound, also, to say, 
 that to the exercise of such feelings we are incited, in addition to the consid- 
 erations mentioned, by your affectionate sympathy, and that of many others, 
 with our Rt. Rev. President, during his recent anxious mission to Great 
 Britain. From his own lips, publicly and privately, we have heard of the 
 many kind offices toward hisi on the part of our English brethren, and of 
 their earnet desires for his success ; and have felt it all as if it had been per- 
 sonal to ourselves. 
 
 Allow us then, gentlemen, to conclude this note with the expression of our 
 best wishes for your individual happiness, and with the utterance of a fervent 
 prayer, that amid the changes which are multiplying so rapidly throughout 
 the world, a desecrating foot may never be allowed to enter your learned 
 retreats ; but that Oxford may ever stand unimpaired in her resources, and 
 undiminished in her glory, the patroness of literature, and the champion of all 
 Scriptural truth and order, uniting with her deep erudition the same spirit of 
 brotherly kindness and charity which breathes in your communication to 
 Kehyon College. 
 
 We aiXj Gentlemen, with sincere respect, 
 
 Your Friends and Brethren. 
 
 The Crisis of 1842. 
 
 The sum contributed in England, $12,370, after defraying the 
 Bishop's expenses, was to be sacredly applied to the building of 
 Bexley Hall. It afforded, therefore, no relief from an oppressive 
 debt. The collection in Ohio, by Dr. Sparrow, was only enough to 
 discharge pressing claims, and keep down interest for a short time. 
 
 Still, had usual prosperity attended the Institution, its credit 
 might have been sustained some time longer. But about the year 
 1840, several untoward events occurred. There was a gradual fall- 
 ing off of students from the South, and from the pecuniary depres- 
 sion of the times, and other causes, not enough presented themselves 
 from the North and West to fill their places. Receipts from tuition 
 were therefore very much diminished, while salaries and other 
 expenses renuiined nearly the same as before. 
 
 Some revenue had been realized from the land, of which about 
 1,500 acres were under improvement; but there wore so many 
 drawbacks and losses, that in a scries of years the actual amount 
 Was small. 
 
 In 1840 a change was made with a view of realizing a profit from 
 grazing and raising cattle and sheep. But after expensive stock 
 
54 
 
 had been purcliased, a dry season cut off the means of keeping it, 
 and it Tvas necessary to sell, at a great loss, to save life. There 
 were those Avho blamed this experiment; but perhaps they vrould 
 not have done so, if it had been attempted at a time vrhen stock 
 was rising, instead of falling, and vrhen feed was plenty, instead of 
 scarce. At such a time it might have cleared off the whole debt; 
 but as it was. the profits went the wrong war. 
 
 Disastrous as this attempt was, it is perhaps well that it was tried, 
 and equallj well that it failed. As it is. the Trustees of Kenyon 
 College, having tried in every way that appeared feasible, for twenty 
 years, to make their farm sustain the Institution, and found it con- 
 stantly sinking in debt, at length (some ten years since), came to 
 the conclusion, that a religious corporation can not conduct a farm 
 to advantage. 
 
 From the operation of the above causes, the year 1S42 was the 
 most gloomy one in the whole history of the Institution. The debt 
 of Prime. Ward it King, then nearly S20.000. was pressing for 
 liquidation. The land was mortgaged to secure it; and as financial 
 affairs were then, the whole domain would scarcely more than have 
 paid the debt. 
 
 It seemed a most inauspicious time to appeal to the public for 
 aid, but it was determined to try; this being the only resource for 
 saving the property of the Institution. In this emergency, our 
 good Bishop put on the harness, and girded himself for the work 
 of begging. An appeal, called •'• An Earnest TForcf," was issued, the 
 gtyle and purport of which, as well as the purpose for which aid was 
 asked, may be learned from the following extract : ^' The -i.OOO acres 
 of land making the endowment, in the center of which the build- 
 ings stand, the rents of which are depended on for support, <^ ^ 
 are considered worth in common times from SO to 100.000 dollars. 
 The buildings owned by the Institution, thereupon, are estimated 
 as worth at least 75.000 dollars. The latter, of course, are of no use 
 for the payment of debt. They are worth nothing but for a college. 
 We must keep them or perish. The landed endowment is all that 
 could be used for the payment of debt. Suppose it sold ? It must 
 all be sold to raise money enough in these times to meet the case; 
 or. at the very best, so large a part (and that the most valuable) 
 must be sold, as entirely to ruin the endowment.'" — An Farne&i 
 Word, p. 4. 
 
^ 
 
 The Rev. Mr. Lounsbiiry was employed as aa agent to present 
 'the cause in Ohio, and he and the Eev. Mr. Clark to assist Bishop 
 MeTlvaine at the East. 
 
 The application to raise money to save the endowm^ent of th€ 
 Theological Seminary of Ohio and Kenyon College succeeded well, 
 as the following subscription lists will show. This successful effort 
 3ias rightly conferred on Bishop Mcllvaine the title of Second 
 Founder of the Institution — a work really more trying than had 
 ever yet been undertaken for Kenyon College.

 Donation of Rev. E. Lounsbury. 25 
 J. W. Allen, Cleveland, 0....'. 10 
 From different persons to pay 
 interest 1246 
 
 This last item, together T^-itli the donations of Dr. Hooe and his 
 sister, Mrs. Stuart, of Ya.. amounting in all to 83,456 75, were not 
 included in Bishop Mcllvaiue's account in 1843, because, though 
 these sums belong to the results of the same effort, the money was 
 not received by him, and had not been realized at the time. 
 
 The net result of this effort, including S130 from Ohio, was the 
 sum of S29.516.60. 
 
 After the final report of Bishop Mcllvaine, of the results of this 
 collection, the following resolutions were passed by the Board of 
 Trustees, being appended to a report of a committee, which concludes 
 thus : 
 
 " The widow's mite and the rich man's gift have each been cheer- 
 . fally thrown into the treasury, and the donors have thus, we trust, 
 
61 
 
 lent to tlie Lord that wliich lie will repay them. The Bishop's 
 account of his stewardship is full and satisfactory. He went forth 
 literally without money and without scrip, but his trust was in the 
 Lord, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift. The result 
 has been already stated, and it only remains for the committee to 
 submit the following resolutions : 
 
 "1. Eewlved. That the Board does, and will ever cherish, a most 
 grateful recollection af the generous kindness of our eastern breth- 
 ren and friends, who, in our hour of need, have so largely helped 
 the great interests of Christian education in this Diocese ; and the 
 Secretary is hereby directed to preserve and file, among the archives 
 of the Theological Seminary at Gambler, the statement book and 
 vouchers now communicated by the Bishop, exhibiting the sources 
 from whence the generous aid was received, and the uses made of it. 
 
 " 2. Resolved further, That our Kt .Rev. Bishop Mcllvaine has 
 most ably and faithfully discharged the laborious and highly-import- 
 ant trust thus devolved upon him. And this Board have heard 
 with inexpressible pleasure, from other reliable sources at the East, 
 that this arduous duty was performed, not only v/ith signal ability, 
 but with a Christian spirit and aeal which, under, his Master's direc- 
 tion, made many new friends for the vast interests under his 
 charge. 
 
 "3. Resolved further, That this Board hereby assure the Bishop 
 that they entertain a most grateful sense of the valuable and import- 
 ant services which he has rendered, not only to the Theological 
 Seminary, and to the College, but to the great interests of the 
 Church in this Diocese. And while the Bishop declines all pecu- 
 niary remuneration, nothing having been retained therefor beyond 
 his mere personal expenses, the Trustees do insist, and hereby most- 
 respectfully beg him to retain and keep, for his own use, the small 
 balance, (|207 IG,) which, as before stated, he has reported as unex- 
 pended and subject to order, and for that purpose the Secretary is 
 hereby directed to make out and deliver to the Bishop, in the name 
 and behalf of this Board, the proper receipt and voucher. All 
 which is respectfully submitted."

 Of the above subscription, the sums marked * were subscriptions 
 for which scrip was issued, entitling the bearer to an equivalent in 
 tuition, or, after five years, to demand the money. Hence $3,150 
 of the above was a loan, and has since been accounted for, leaving 
 the Ohio donation of 1843, $5,785.39, which, added to the sum 
 obtained at the East, makes the whole result of the effort of 1843, 
 $35,302; and deducting $302 for expense of collecting $8,911.39 
 in Ohio, leaves it $35,000. So much was obtained from a benevo- 
 lent public to save the endowment of these Institutions. 
 
 Scholarship Fund, obtained in 1850, by Rev. J. Muen- 
 
 SCHER, D. D. 
 
 In the year 1850, a subscription was taken up in Ohio, amount- 
 ing to $11,924, called a " Subscription to Scholarship Fund," It 
 was intended by this effort to found a professorship by the sale of 
 scholarships. The condition was that the subscriber on paying 
 $200 should receive a certificate entitling the holder to tuition in 
 any department of the Institution. Upon this subscription was 
 collected the sum of $5,600, and certificates therefor have been 
 issued. This is, in effect, a loan, on which interest is payable in 
 tuition. 
 
 A few subscribers, having paid in part, compromised by surren- 
 dering their claim to scholarships, and thus obtained a release 
 5 
 
66 
 
 from payment of the balance. "What was paid, therefore, should be 
 considered as donations. These sums are as follows :

 Library and AppARAxrs. 
 
 The Catalogue of the Theological Seminary and College, for 
 1860, makes the following statement respecting Libraries: 
 
 The Libraries to which the students have access are as follows, 
 viz : 
 
 1. The Library of the Seminary and College, containing 6,500 
 volumes. 
 
 2. That of the Philomathesian Society, containing 3,527 volumes. 
 
 3. That of the Nu Pi Kappa Society, containing 3,357 volumes. 
 
 The Libraries of the Societies have been accumulated and 
 mainly given by the students themse-ves. To name the donors 
 would require a catalogue of a greater part of all the students that 
 have ever been connected with the Institution. 
 
 Of the donors to the Library of the Seminary it will be prac- 
 ticable here to name only a few. 
 
 Through Bishops Chase and Mcllvaine, extensive and valuable 
 collections of books were received from England. 
 
 P. G. Stuveysant, of ISTew York, besides liberal subscriptions 
 otherwise, gave $1,000 in money to increase the library. 
 
 Charles D. Betts, of New York, left, for charitable purposes, in 
 the hands of Dr. Anthon, the sum of $1,000. This sum was given 
 by him, the interest of which is to be applied, under ,the direction 
 of the Faculty, to the purchase of Theological books. 
 
 Rollin Sandford, Esq., and Messrs. Carter & Brothers, of N. Y., 
 have more recently presented some eighty volumes each, of valu- 
 able books. 
 
 It will not be practicable here to name all the valuable gifts that 
 have been made to aid the scientific departments of the College. 
 
m 
 
 th addilion to the gifts received from England, already mentioned, 
 C. L. Boalt, Esq., of Norwalk, in 1849, gave $100, and Kev. C. 0. 
 Pinckney, of South Carolina, gave $200 to fit np a laboratory. 
 These gifts were very opportune, and received with special thank- 
 fulness, because they came when few were disposed to give. 
 
 Since then, a choice portable cabinet of utensils for testing min- 
 erals has been received from Rev. S. A. Bronson, and a telescope 
 and transit instrument from Rev. Peter Neff, jr. These instruments 
 presented to the Observatory were, an Achromatic Telescope, seven 
 and a half inches diameter, eight and a half feet focal length, 
 mounted equatorially, furnished with clock movement and various 
 ^ye-pieces. It is now mounted under the revolving dome, in the 
 tower of " Ascension Hall." Also, a Transit instrument, made by 
 E. & a. W. Blunt, of New York. The Telescope (two inches 
 aperture, and about two feet focal length) is a very accurate and 
 finely-made instrument. 
 
 As the above gifts are specific, and were appropriated by the 
 donors, and are now in a shape in which their value can not be 
 measured by money, they will not hereafter be embraced in allusion 
 to general receipts into the treasury. 
 
 A Second Crisis. 
 
 From 1840 to 1850, the whole Institution was very much de- 
 pressed. It possessed a large amount of property, but it was mainly 
 in land. Its value was not less than $100,000, as has been proven 
 by subsequent sales ; and though every expedient had been tried to 
 make it productive, the most that could be realized from it was 
 about $1,500 per annum. Of this sum, $900 per annum were re- 
 quired to pay interest, and $500 for taxes. Bents were accruing to 
 the Amount of about $1,200 yearly, on -dwellings owned by the 
 Institution. But on buildings that had stood fifteen or twenty 
 ^ears, a large part of the rents would be required iu repairs. 
 
 In a financial condition so depressed, with Professors the fewest 
 possible, and those on half pay, very tardily received, it is no won- 
 der that students were few, and that the streams of benevolence 
 that had so often watered Kenyon, were nearly dried up. The 
 present writer, in asking for aid at one time, was told in effect, 
 "You have a plenty of land, use that." I'hc hint was taken, and 
 
m 
 
 the matter of a sale urged as the only possible liope of relief. 
 This measure was first recommended by the Faculty, and then, after 
 mature deliberation, by the Convention of Ohio ; and very soon 
 after 1850, nearly half of the land was sold. 
 
 Now a brighter day dawned upon Kenyon. The debt was paid 
 off, credit restored, and the officers were promptly paid } so that the 
 best talents the country afforded could now be commanded for 
 Kenyon College. President Andrews was soon after appointed, 
 who has no superior in ability to conduct an institution of learning^ 
 and so to adapt it to the wants of the country, as to command and 
 deserve an extensive patronage. 
 
 Fears have sometimes been expressed, that the College is over- 
 shadowing the Theological Seminary. But present results prove 
 conclusively, that the life of the College and Preparatory School is 
 the life of the Theological Seminary. Through these there ever 
 has, and probably ever will, come the main supply of candidates for 
 tjie ministry, and, consequently, of students for the Seminary. The 
 interests of both are identical, and what aids one will benefit the 
 other. 
 
 From the very time of a change of the property of the Sem- 
 inary, from an unproductive to a productive form, confidence and 
 kind feeling toward it have been increasing. 
 
 Dr. Muenscher had little difficulty in selling scholarships to the- 
 amount of nearly $12,000. This was, doubtless, a judicious move, 
 as it aided in bringing in students when they were most needed. 
 
 The year 1851 brought another favorable token. The Rev. G-. T. 
 Brooke, D. D., was appointed agent to solicit funds for a new Pro- 
 fessorship. He entered upon his work, and had proceeded so far 
 as to obtain the following donations : 
 
 Rev. E. H. Canfield, D. D., New York. $100 
 
 Hon. D. K. Este, Cincinnati , 100 
 
 R. H. Marshall, Esq lOO 
 
 W. W. Corcoran, Esq., Washington City 100' 
 
 A lady, Frederick, Md.., „.. 100 
 
 Christ Church, Baltimore , , ,. 100 
 
 Mr. Bash, " 100 
 
 Mr. Carrol, " 25 
 
 At this point the agent was most unexpectedly arrested in Mb 
 course, and an end was put to his further solicitations. Here was 
 a " new thing under the sun," at least for Kenyon. In the Theo- 
 
logical Seminary at Alexandria, (a noble rival to that in Ohio, in 
 the cause of Evangelical truth,) was a gentle and somewhat retiring 
 young man, himself a student, by the name of Archibald Morri- 
 son. This young man encountered the agent with a spirit which 
 our persevering friend. Dr. Brooke, was unprepared to resist, and in 
 a very unobtrusive way, gave the whole sum of $10,000, and thus 
 founded the Grmoold Professorship in the Theological Seminary of 
 the Diocese of Ohio. 
 
 The impulse now given to the Seminary, of which the above was 
 both an evidence and a cause, made it necessary to provide addi- 
 tional rooms for Theological students. This want was met by the 
 •effort to complete the remaining*half of Bexley Hall. The follow- 
 i^ig list will show whence the funds for this purpose were derived :

 This sum, last mentioned, was given some time before the rest, 
 to fit up a room for a very worthy colored student, who has lately 
 taken orders. 
 
 The following sums have also been given, at various times, to 
 furnish rooms in Bexley Hall ; th« room being named from the 
 source whence its furniture was supplied.

 In the course of this gratifying progress, there was an equally 
 increasing demand for funds; and as this demand increased more

 rapidly tlian tlie supply, extraordinary efforts were made by tlie 
 Trustees themselves to make up the deficiency. The following

 Convention, in order to make the income meet the expenses of the 
 Institution. 
 
 Donations for this purpose were often made at meetings of the

 AscExsiox Hall. a:^;d Xev7 Prolessokships. 
 About the year 1S55. it became evident that increased accommo- 
 dations would soon be needed for College students. This was 
 deemed a just ground of applications for friendly aid from abroad. 
 With the demand for more room, also arose a demand for an 
 increase of Professors. To obtain such aid. and meet these demands-. 
 Bishop Mellvaine issued the following 
 
 SlATEaiNT AND APPEAL IX BzHALP OF KeXTON CoLXEGE. 
 
 Bishop McIlvaixe solicits the kind attention of his friends, and all wha 
 desire the extension of our Church in the "West, to the following respectful 
 appeal and statement. It is in behalf of Kenyon College, situated at Gam- 
 bier, Ohio, under Trustees appointed by tb* Convention of that Diocese, and 
 devoted to the promotion of Christian Education, and more especially to that 
 of candidates for the ministry, in the Episcopal Chtirch. For convenience- 
 sake, we here speak of the College and connected Theological Seminary, both 
 of them at Gambler, and essentially united under the same Trustees and incor- 
 poration, under the one name of Kenyon College; because, although the cor- 
 porate name is '-Theological Seminary of the Diocese of Ohio," the other is the 
 name most familiar to the public. 
 
 It is not tedeliver this institution from debt, that aid is now sought. Theiie. 
 
71 
 
 is no ^ebt. But there is an unprecedented prosperity, and hence arises the 
 present necessity. The present accommodations are so occupied with students, 
 that there is room for only a very few more. The number of undergraduates is 
 between one hundred and forty and one hundred and fifty. It is a remarka- 
 ble and cheering fact, that of that number seventy-seven are communicants, 
 forty of whom are preparing to enter, when they graduate, on theological 
 study for the ministry, while there is reason to expect that of the remainder, 
 many will make up their minds in the same direction. In these times of need 
 as to laborers in God's vineyard, how encouraging and important these facts. 
 
 Never before has Kenyon College been the object of so much attention, 
 East and West, as an institution to be relied on by the members of our Church 
 for the education of their sons. Never has there been so strong and wide a 
 feeling, among clergy and laity, that Kenyon College, however local and dio- 
 cesan as to its control, is national, as to its importance, and the usefulness to 
 be expected from it, and the interest that should center upon it. In truth, 
 the importance of that institution to the whole Church is measured only by 
 that of having an evangelical ministry of our Church extended far and wide 
 over all the States and Territories of the West. And hence the feeling is 
 becoming very strong, that there is no object, connected with our duty as a 
 Church, which should more engage the regard and liberal gifts of our people 
 than the strengthening and enlargement of the facilities of Kenyon College, to 
 place it on such a footing, as to adequate number of professors, accommoda- 
 tions for students, and the various means and conveniences for instruction, in 
 all branches, that it may fully occupy the place to which it is called in the 
 providence of God, that it may meet, satisfy, and retain, instead of disappoint- 
 ing and causing to react, the present incoming of public favor and expec- 
 tation. 
 
 Then, what does Kenyon College need ? We answer. Means of enlargement. 
 In what? 
 
 First. In the number of its professorships. 
 
 It needs endowment for two professorships — one in the Theological Depart- 
 ment; the other in the Undergraduate Course. It takes all the increase of 
 income which the Trustees have been able to make, to meet the great increase 
 which a few years have made in the cost of living, and consequently in the 
 cost of supporting the instruction of the Institution on its old footing, as to the 
 number of professors, etc. It has no income beyond its annual expenses. 
 Enlargement, however demanded, is out of the question, Avithout assistance. 
 We ask, therefore, for aid at the hands of our brethren, in the endowment of 
 two professorships, at a salary of $1,000 each, which, at 7 per cent., requires 
 for each the sum of $15,000. 
 
 Secondly. Enlargement in buildings. 
 
 Wc need an additional building for the accommodation of more students. 
 Scarcely any increase of students can now be received, while much is now 
 promised, and much more is confidently expected. 
 
72 
 
 We need another building for all the public purposes of the College, con- 
 taining a suitable chapel for daily morning and evening prayers (the present 
 place for such a purpose being unsuitable in the extreme) ; containing, also, 
 accommodations for a chemical laboratory, for a philosophical cabinet and 
 lectures, and rooms for all recitations and lectures. At present these objects 
 are provided for most inconveniently and defectively, to the great detriment 
 of the reputation of the Institution, and contraction of its usefulness. 
 
 Thirdly. Enlargement as to means of instruction. 
 
 Suitable apparatus for instruction in Chemistry, in Natural Philosophy, and 
 other departments of physical science, is absolutely needed. 
 
 Fourthly. The means of providing residences for two professors. 
 
 All these objects, on a moderate Estimate, will require from §65,000 to 
 $70,000 — an amount not great compared with the magnitude and permanence 
 of the end to be attained — not great compared with what is readily raised by 
 our brethren of other Christian churches in this country, for the seminaries 
 and colleges under their control. 
 
 Without multiplying words, the undersigned respectfully seeks of his 
 brethren of the laity the means of accomplishing the objects above specified. 
 What better thing can be done for our Church extension, and our great work 
 of thereby promoting the advancement of the Gospel, by means of the labors 
 of an educated and faithful ministry ? What better can be done by the 
 East for the vast outspreading of the West, and its rapid growth of popula- 
 tion ; what better for the glory of God and the good of man ? The under- 
 signed is the more bold to ask this aid, because in having given himself (and 
 for many years under most heavy burdens of difficulty and anxiety,) to the 
 same cause, he has not omitted to take a larger share of its service than he 
 asks now of any of his brethren. Those who are so kind as to be ready to 
 help, can transmit to the undersigned, at Cincinnati, by mail, or can make 
 their Kector their agent for that purpose — making their own terms of pay- 
 ment, provided that the time, as to individual subscriptions, be not over three 
 
 years from date.

 Cash subscriptions paid 137 50 
 
 Of the last above, to this date, July 1, 1S60, the sum of S4407.- 
 84 has been paid. 
 
 When the above subscriptions had progressed thus far, another 
 most agreeable surprise occurred. 
 
 Mr. J. D. Wolfe and "wife, and Mrs. Spencer, the sister of Mrs. 
 W.j of West Chester, N. Y., whose names the reader of this will find 
 oft repeated in this record, and whose venerable father, just before 
 his decease, gave $6000 to the Bishop of Ohio, for the benefit of 
 aged and infirm clergymen, in this diocese, unitedly founded a pro- 
 fessorship in Kenyon College, giving, together, $16,000. This was 
 accordingly named by the Trustees, the Lorillard & Wolfe Profes- 
 sorship. 
 
 Nearly at the same time with these expressions of good will, the 
 benevolent John Johns, of Baltimore County, M. D., departed this 
 life. His name, too, was often on the subscription lists for Kenyon 
 College, and in his will, through the special good offices of the late 
 lamented Dr. Johns, he made the generous bequest to the Institu- 
 tion of $15,000. This came not as a result, but among the results of 
 the "Statement and Appeal" issued November, 1856. 
 
 They will, therefore, sum up as follows : 
 
 Donation to St. George's Hall S 3,282 50 
 
 Ascension Hall Subscription 10,252 00 
 
 Toward a New York Professorship 6,666 00 
 
 Toward Bedell Professorship, collected 1860 4,407 00 
 
 The Lorillard & Wolfe Professorship 15,000 00 
 
 The Johns' Legacy 15,000 00 
 
 $54,607 50 
 
 All the above Professorship subscriptions are not yet collected, 
 but enough has been realized to enable the Institution to establish 
 two professorships, and proceed with Ascension Hall so far that we 
 have assurances it will be completed by the Church of the Ascen- 
 sion, N. Y. 
 
 The Strong Scholarship Fund. 
 
 The Eev. E. A. Strong has, by permission of the Trustees, solic- 
 ited scholarships of §200 each, for the exclusive benefit of young 
 
75 
 
 men studying for the ministry. The sum of $8,331 has heeni 
 received in this way, which, when it shall reach a certain amount^ 
 is to be regarded as a foundation for a professorship. This, and the 
 Muenscher scholarship funds, together, amount to $13,931. These,. 
 it is to be remembered, are not donations, but loans, on which a 
 high interest is paid in the shape of tuition.

 In reference to the above, the donors will of right ask what prop- 
 erty and assets does the Institution now possess, to show that these 
 funds have been judiciously expended. To this it may be said, in 
 answer : 
 
 1. Temporary buildings and improvements, that cost, at differeut 
 times, upwards of $17,000, have long since passed away. They 
 have been used up for the purposes intended, and have doubtless 
 been worth, to the Church and the world, all they cost. Much also 
 has been expended in the repairs of buildings in the course of 30 
 years, that can not now be included in their present value. Should 
 it be estimated, therefore, that $20,000 have been absorbed in this 
 
76 
 
 way, and the statement be allowed the benefit of this deductioOj it 
 would be but fair and just. But this is not necessary. 
 
 2. Abundant assets in real estate and vested funds remain on 
 hand to more than equal in value every dollar that has been given 
 to the Institution. 
 
 The following statement, carefully prepared by a committee ap- 
 pointed for the purpose, is an estimate of the present value of the 
 property of the Board : 
 
 Kenyon College ^ 35,000 00 
 
 RosseChapel 13,335 00 
 
 Bexley Hall 17,195 00

 $282,980 00 • 
 Deduct Donations, 235,047 45 
 
 Balance $ 47,932 55 
 
 One person, to whom the public are especially indebted for the 
 safe keeping and accumulation of the funds of Kenyon College, 
 ought here to be especially noted, viz : the Rev. Dr. "Wing. Dur- 
 ing the greater part of the time, for thirty years, in addition to the 
 duties of a Professorship in the Seminary, he has been general and 
 financial agent, and book-keeper. Through him, at different 
 times, have been sold more than 7,000 acres of land, and not much 
 less than 1100,000 have been expended in buildings under his di- 
 rection. The management of the whole concern has, in fact, rested 
 on his shoulders, and it is but just that in this Report the Trustees 
 should emphatically say, " Well done, good and faithful servant." 
 
 In conclusion, let it be said, in behalf of the Trustees, Officers 
 and Students, who have, during a third of a century past, been con- 
 nected with our Diocesan Institution at Gambler, in the name of 
 the many souls that have here been born again, and are now rejoic- 
 ing in Heaven : in the name of the • many churches whose pulpits 
 have been filled with Gospel preachers from this Institution : in the 
 
77 
 
 Bame of tlie millions yet to inhabit the valley of the Ohio, who 
 shall look up to Kenyon as the Camhridge or Oxford of the West^ 
 in tones of warmest thanks, may Heaven's richest blessing rest upoB 
 every donor. Honor to the poor man, woman or child, that has 
 given a dime, as well as the rich who have given their thousands. 
 The donor to this Institution who has given, or shall give or be- 
 queath, for its advancement, what Grod has blessed him with here, 
 but which he can not carry with him, will have built a monument 
 more durable than marble or brass, a monument that will make his 
 name loved as well as admired. 
 
 N. B. In the course of thirty years many subscription-lists 
 have been lost, and while the amounts were carefully retained on 
 the books, at Gambler, the names of the donors have been lost 
 sight of. If this Statement shall fall into the hands of any who 
 can supply any instances of this kind, the Trustees will be grateful 
 fo^r the information. 
 
AN EXTRACT 
 
 ■f ROM l^HE WESTERN EPISCOPALIAN, OCT. 4, i860. 
 
 The Theological Department has sent forth ninety-one Ministers of the 
 Gospel, during the twenty-five years since its organization. 
 
 Two hundred and seventy-six young men have graduated from Kenyon Col- 
 lege during the thirty-three .years since its foundation, of whom ninety have 
 become Ministers of the Gospel. 
 
 It may safely be said that not less than one hundred and fifty who hate 
 been students in these Institutions, have entered the ministry. Such a 
 work have they done for the Church, though yet in their infancy, and hereto^ 
 fore struggling with the difficulties incident to a new enterprise in a new 
 •country. But Kenyon College has done more than educate pious young men, 
 who have become students in her various classes. By the blessing of God, 
 many who commenced th«ir course of pupilage here, unconcerned about the 
 things of eternity, have gone forth into the world faithful, devoted Christiaii 
 men ; some to preach the Gospel of Christ in this or foreign lands ; and others 
 to labor for the same good cause as earnest, zealous laymen. During the last 
 six years, ninety-seven students have graduated from Kenyon College ; of 
 these, sixty-seven were communicants ; thirty-two have entered upon the 
 work of the ministry, er are candidates for orders, and thirty-six, by the con- 
 Verting power of the Holy Spirit, as we trust, were brought into the Church 
 here. During the same time, including those who have not graduated, fifty- 
 nine students have become communicants while connected with the InstitU'- 
 tion. 
 
 At the present writing, there are one hundred and ninety-four students in 
 all the departments of the Institution, of whom ninety-four are communi- 
 cants, and seventy are studying with a view to the ministry in our Church. 
 
 The facts presented above speak for themselves, and show that God has 
 blessed these Institutions by the converting influences of the Holy Spirit; 
 
79 
 
 and that He continues to own and sanctify the msans employed to develop the 
 minds and cultivate the hearts of the youth here assembled. 
 
 The young Christian here enjoys many privileges to promote the growth'of 
 grace in his own heart, and many opportunities to labor for the cause of 
 Christ. He is beyond the reach of many of the seductive influences of 
 "worldly amusements and fashionable vices ; he resides in a community made 
 up almost entirely of members of our Church ; he has the association and 
 sympathy of about one hundred young Christians, who, like himself, are stu- 
 dents in the Institution; he is required to attend the full Morning and Even- 
 ing Service, and liear two evangelical sermons each Sunday in Rosse Chapel ; 
 he is invited to unite in the Service and listen to a Lecture each Thursday 
 evening ; on each Tuesday evening the officers and students cf the Theologi- 
 cal Seminary hold a Social Prayer Meeting in Bexley Hall ; the officers and 
 students of the College meet for the same purpose in Ascension Hall, and the 
 officers and students of the Grammar School, in Milnor Hall ; and in addi- 
 tion to these, each class in College has its own Prayer Meeting on Friday 
 evening.
