At the Annual meeting of the Akimni Association of Pennsylvania College, June, 1879, it was ''Resolved, That a Committee be ap- pointed to propose a plan to be presented to the Association for the celebration of the semi-centennial of the College in 1882." The report of the Committee, at the meeting in June, 1880, was adopted, and the committee authorized to carry into effect their plans. Among the suggestions of the committee was the publication of The Penn- sylvania College Book. The chairman of the committee was appointed by the committee General Editor, and empowered to arrange the details of the volume. The object of this publication is to place in a permanent and ac- cessible form the history of our Alma Mater, and the public transac- tions of the Societies which form part of her organization ; to gather together suitable recognitions of the character, ability, and successful and arduous labors of the men to whom we owe the healthful and continuous development of this institution of learning; to record briefly the more important facts in the history, to this date, of the men who have obtained in Pennsylvania College the mental discipline which has enabled them to become, in many instances prominent, and we believe in nearly all instances, useful citizens. The Pennsylvania College Book will fail to accomplish its full purpose unless its perusal stimulates us all to a more correct appre- ciation of our intellectual indebtedness to our Alma Mater, and thus induces us to labor more zealously for her welfare. The Church will see m these pages evidences of the great value Pennsylvania College has been to her, in preparing for the work of the church, in the pulpit and the pew, the men who have been most active in advancing her interests. We express the sentiment of all the friends of the College when we say that we hope and expect the semi- centennial date will not so much mark an epoch of the past, greatly successful as it has been, but an epoch of a future more successful and more fruitful in good work for higher Christian education. \iii TABLE OF CONTENTS.

BY PRESIDENT M. VALENTINE. A NATURAL interest attaches to the beginning and progress of every organization or institution that attains honorable promi- nence or becomes efficient in valuable service. Its present worth invests its origin and all its growth with importance. Enter- prises which quickly die, or continue only in littleness and use- lessness, invite to no historical inquiry, as they merit none. Their disappointed projectors and supporters take no pride in them. They secure no friends whose love and gratitude impels them to make their memorials permanent. But when an institu- tion has done and is doing a creditable and worthy work, and holds a large place in the hearts of hundreds and thousands of earnest friends, when its past is gratifying and its future assuring, the interest is strongly prompted to gather up and dwell upon the facts of its origin and the work it has accomplished. On this principle the history of Pennsylvania College is now called for. It has more than deserved the honor of such a memorial. A half-century of honorable existence and fruitful work, of healthy growth and enlarging usefulness, has created at once the materials of the account and an interest that will welcome it. The Alumni and friends of Pennsylvania College, therefore, take pleasure in marking this semi-centennial date, among other things, by the publication of a history of the institution. The necessarily limited space in the College Book, of which 2 HISTORY this history forms the opening part, requires that it be given without unnecessary lengthening by way of minute details. The interest which connects itself with varied quotations from official records, particularly of statements concerning individuals, and abundant incidents and reminiscences, must be foregone in the interest of a becoming brevity and directness. The central and essential current of the institution's history alone can here be traced. Nor is this limitation to be greatly regretted; because the arrangement for the College Book has provided for the needful broader variety, in special histories of societies, personalia and incidents. I. ITS ORIGIN. Pennsylvania College -wdiS founded in 1832. Six years before, in 1826, the Theological Seminary of the General Synod of the Lutheran Church had been established at Gettysburg. The need of a classical school to prepare young men for theological study was soon felt. To meet the want, such a school was begun under the direction of Rev. D. Jacobs, A. M., in 1827.* In 1829 a scientific department was connected with it under the care of his brother, Rev. M. Jacobs, A. M., and the name of the school was changed to that of the Gettysburg Gyinnasi7im. After the death of Rev. D. Jacobs, in November, 1830, Rev. H. L. Baugher, A. M., was appointed to the charge of the classical department, April, 1 83 1. The number of students and general prosperity of the Gymna- sium encouraged its friends to enlarge the institution and place it on a permanent basis as a College. A charter was therefore obtained from the State, signed by Governor Wolf, April 7, i832.t In accordance with the provisions of this charter, the institution was organized in the following July, under the style and title of " Pennsylvania College of Gettysburg." Its origin was thus marked by a relation very peculiar. Among the educational institutions of our country, there are numerous instances in which the work of a College has led to the organization of a theological school. But the cases are very few, if this does not stand abso- lutely alone, in which the order has been reversed, and a Theo- * June 25. -|- Laws of Pennsylvania, 1831-1832, p. 365. ITS ORIGIN. 3 logical Seminary has led to the founding of a College. However distinctly separate they became in their corporate capacity, the two institutions sprang up on the same spot, the instruction and exercises of the Seminary and the Gymnasiurn being conducted in the same building, till the former moved into its new edifice in the fall of 1832.* But both the Preparing School and the College arose out of the operations of the Seminary, and the leading enterprise and purposes of those who were working in it or with it. The original corporators, named in the charter, and mentioned as "the subscribers to the funds of said institution, by whose private contributions the said funds have been raised and its present edifice purchased," were John B. McPherson, Thomas C. Miller, Thomas J. Cooper, Samuel Fahnestock, Samuel S. Schmucker, Ernest L. Hazelius, David F. Schaeffer, John G. Morris, Benjamin Kurtz, William Heim, Charles P. Krauth, Frederick D. Schaeffer, J. George Schmucker, J. F. Heyer, Jacob Martin, Abraham Reck, William Ernest, Jacob Medtard, Lewis Eichelberger, Michael Meyerheffer, Jonathan Ruthrauff, Jacob Crigler, John F. Macfarlane, Robert G. Harper, and John Herbst. Thes^ persons were constituted a " body politic and corporate," under the title of " The Patrons of Pennsylvania College in Get- tysburg, in the county of Adams." An annual meeting was required, and its perpetual succession in deed and in law was provided for through elections, to be held in the body itself, filling all vacancies occurring from death, resignation, or other cause. In view of their original subscriptions to the funds, a special privilege of the patrons in the advantages of the institution, en- joyed first in the Gymnasium and continued in their acceptance of the College charter, was the right" to gratuitous tuition of their sons through the whole course. These " Patrons" and their successors were authorized to elect, from time to time, from their own number or elsewhere, a Board of twenty-one Trustees. They were to determine the length of time for which these Trustees should hold their office, and to be responsible in law for their acts. The charter, however, makes * Lutheran Obsen>er, October 15, 1832. 4 HISTORY. this Board of Trustees, as a Committee of the Patrons, " able and capable at law and equity," and " liable to all the responsibilities of bodies politic," and puts into its hands all the business and control of the institution, the reception of moneys or other effects by gift, conveyance, will, or any other way, the holding of its property, the management of its funds, the election of Principal and Pro- fessors, and the enacting of ordinances for its government and discipline. The regular term of service of the Trustees was fixed, by standing resolution of the Patrons, at three years, one-third of the number going out of office every year. At the time of the organization of this institution there was no College in the State — nor in the United States — under the auspices of the Lutheran Church. There was a wide field for the work of an institution for the higher education in this con- nection, and the organization of Pennsylvania College was called for by a large need and the most inviting prospect of usefulness. This prospect was such as probably to justify the sanguine greeting given by the editor of the Lutheran Observer — one of the corporators, soon afterward a member of the first Board of Trustees, and a member still at the end of half a century — to the news that a charter was obtained : " We expect in a very short time to see Gettysburg the Cambridge of Pennsylvania, with its academic halls crowded with orderly and diligent students." As was natural under the circumstances and included in its design, the control or management of it was given to a Board of Trus- tees, a majority of whom were Lutherans. But though the institution has been established under the auspices of the Luth- eran Church, no religious condition is connected with the posi- tion of Patron or Trustee, the charter declaring : " At elections for patrons, or trustees, or teachers, or other officers, and in the reception of pupils, no person shall be rejected on account of his conscientious persuasion in matters of religion, provided he shall demean himself in a sober manner, and conform to the rules and regulations of the College." The institution is, there- fore, non-sectarian, as are most American colleges established under church auspices, the denominational relation expressing only the fact that the College has been organized and is carried ORGANIZATION AND EARLY WORK. 5 on under the special patronage and efforts of the Lutheran Church, and for' the purpose of bearing part in the work of the higher Christian education. No restriction is imposed by the charter in any way Hmiting selection of Trustees to residents of the State, and from the first a considerable number have been from beyond its bounds. No control in the management of the institution is in any way exercised by the State, or by any authority outside of the Board of Trustees. II. ORGANIZATION AND EARLY WORK. The formal organization of Pennsylvania College took place July 4, 1832. No more fitting celebration of the Nation's day of freedom could have been planned than the establishment of an institution for the education of the people. It was connected with interesting and impressive ceremonies. The following brief account of them is taken from the Gettysburg Sentinel: "Agreea- bly to previous arrangement, a procession was formed at half- past 10 o'clock at the Academy, under the direction of Gen. T. C. Miller and Col. M. C. Clarkson, marshals of the day, in the following order: i. The Gettysburg Guards; 2. The Strangers and Citizens; 3. The Invited Strangers; 4. The Students of the Gymnasium; 5. The Students of the Seminary; 6. The Teachers and Professors; 7. The Clergy; 8. The Patrons; 9. The Orator of the Day, accompanied by the Officiating Clergyman. In this order the procession moved to the Presbyterian church [then on Washington street near North], and the line being opened, the orator and officiating clergyman passed in, followed by the patrons, etc., in inverted order. An appropriate hymn was sung by the choir, accompanied by instrumental music, after which a fervent prayer was offered up to the Throne of Grace by the Rev. Wm. Paxton, D. D. An address was then delivered by the Hon. Calvin Blythe, of Harrisburg. After another hymn by the choir, the ceremonies were closed with the benediction by the Rev. Dr. Schmucker, of York. The procession then moved to the Court-house, and was dismissed." The address of Judge Blythe was published. It passes finely from the national memories of the day to the importance of edu- 6 , • HISTORY. cation in its vital relations to the maintenance of our free civil institutions, and makes prominent the moral and religious ele- ments that must mark true culture for its right value in these relations. It presents with vigor the fundamental ideas that should underlie our whole system of both public and collegiate education. It concludes : " The institution organized this day, there is every reason to believe, will prove a valuable auxiliary in the great cause of education. Located in a healthy country, in the midst of an active and intelligent people, under the direc- tion of men of approved learning and ability, it may with confi- dence be predicted that it will receive, as it assuredly will deserve, the public patronage." In the afternoon a meeting of the Patrons was held, and the first Board of Trustees was chosen, as follows : Hon. C. Blythe, of Harrisburg ; Hon. A. Thompson, Chambersburg ; Rev. J. G. Morris, Baltimore, Md. ; Rev. J. G. Schmucker, D. D., York; Rev. D. F. Schaeffer, D. D., Frederick, Md.; Rev. J. Baker, D. D., Lancaster ; Rev. A. Reck, Middletown, Md. ; Hon. D. Schaeffer, Petersburg ; Rev. J. F. Heyer, Somerset ; Rev. E. L. Hazelius, D. D., Gettysburg ; Rev. S. S. Schmucker, Gettysburg ; T. C. Miller, Gettysburg ; J. F. Macfarlane, Gettysburg ; R. G. Harper, Gettysburg; J. B. McPherson, Gettysburg; Rev. C. P. Krauth, Philadelphia; Rev. J. Ruthrauff, Hanover; Rev. J. Medtard, Mar- tinsburg, Va. ; Rev. B. Kurtz, Chambersburg ; Rev. E. Keller, Mechanicsburg ; Rev. A. Lochman, Harrisburg. The first meeting of the Trustees was held at the Academy, in the evening of the same day, and the Board was organized by the appointfnent of Hon. C. Blythe as President, Rev. J. G. Morris, Secretary, and J. B. McPherson, Treasurer. They at once pro- ceeded to the election of a Faculty. By resolution, the professors in the Theological Seminary, Drs. Schmucker and Hazelius, were requested to fill professorships in the College until other persons could be elected. Including these with the professors regularly elected, the first Faculty was constituted as follows : S. S. Schmucker, D. D., Prof of Intellectual Philosophy and Moral Science ; E. L. Hazelius, D. D., Prof of the Latin Language and German Literature; Rev. H. L. Baugher, A. M., Prof of the Greek ORGANIZATION AND EARLY WORK. 7 Language and Belles Lettres ; Rev. M. Jacobs, A. M., Prof, of Mathematics, Chemistry, and Natural Philosophy; Rev. J. H. Marsden, A. M., Prof of Mineralogy and Botany. With the Faculty so constituted, Pennsylvania College, accord- ing to order of the Board, went into operation November 7, 1832, in the Academy or Gj^mnasium building on the corner of Wash- ington and High streets. As showing the creditable standard of work the institution proposed for itself, as well as affording opportunity for interesting comparison with the curriculum at later dates, we give the " Course of Instruction" as then adopted and published : S.

Provision was made for the French language, as optional, under ]\Ir. E. T. H. Friederici, who was empiloyed as teacher of the Preparatoiy Department. Fronf the scant}' records left us, it seems that the institution began with three Juniors, eight Sophomores, tweh'e Freshmen, and forty Preparatorians. The first matriculation of students took place December 15, 1832. September 18, 1833, Rev. C. P. Krauth, of Philadelphia, was elected Professor of Intellectual and ?*Ioral Science, and April 13, 1834, unanimoush' appointed President of the College. His inauguration took place at the opening of the next collegiate year, in the following October. The exercises were held in the German church. The Svnod of ORGANIZATION AND EARLY WORK. 9 Philadelphia (Presbyterian), in session in Gettysburg at the time, adjourned and joined in the procession and exercises. Prayer was offered by Dr. Cuyler, of Philadelphia, after which President Krauth was inducted into office, and delivered an appropriate inaugural address. The moderator of the Synod, Dr. Ashbel Green, of Philadelphia, closed the exercises with the benediction. At the time of the first Commencement in 1833, there was no class for graduation. The first graduating exercises took place Wednesday, September 18, 1834. The Baccalaureate discourse, by President Krauth, was delivered in connection with the con- ferring of the Degrees. It appears from the records that the Commencement exercises of the institution were held on Wed- nesday till 1844, when a change was made to Thursday. In the records of the third meeting of the Faculty, November 5, 1832, we find the first arrangement made for the religious ser- vices of the institution on the Lord's day. These were con- ducted in the college chapel every Sunday morning, the Pro- fessors preaching by turns. This arrangement seems to have been continued until the fall of 1836, when the Faculty accepted the invitation from the newly organized Christ's Church, that the Professors and students should worship with that congregation. In connection with this, they acceded also to the request to unite with others, who were expected statedly to officiate, in filling the preaching appointments of the Church. This was the beginning of a service carried on by the clerical members of the Faculty from that time to the present. The fact deserves to be men- tioned in this record, because it exhibits a relation in which the Professors have voluntarily and cheerfully done a large amount of work on behalf of the institution and in the service of religion. The Professors of the Theological Seminary, to which the church charter in 1838 gave the right of the pulpit in the forenoon of every alternate Sabbath, united in this labor with the College Professors. In addition to this preaching. Dr. Baugher sus- tained the relation of Pastor for an aggregate period of about sixteen years — all the pastoral service of the congregation being, after 1839, fulfilled by some member of the Faculties of the two institutions. The advantages to the College of this close relation 10 HISTORY. SO early formed with Christ's Church have been important. As the church was erected with a special view to the needs and accommodation of the institutions, special privileges were natur- ally granted to them. Since 1843 the students have had the free occupancy of the entire western tier of pews, generously set apart by the Church for their use. In addition to this, the charter provides : " The Church shall likewise be at the service of the Faculty and students of the College, if desired by them, on such other days in the week, or the evenings of such other days, as may be appointed for public Commencements, anniver- sary celebrations, and other public exercises of societies con- nected with the institution, and conducted under the responsi- bility of the Faculty." Pennsylvania College was founded without any public grants of money, lands or other property, depending on the personal contributions of its patrons and friends, and the encouragement and aid expected from the Church under whose auspices it was established. Subsequently, however, on application of the Board of Trustees, and chieil}' through the disinterested and earnest exertions of Hon. Thaddeus Ste\-ens, then a representative of Adams county in the State Legislature, with the co-operation of other Iriends of education, an appropriation of §iS,000 was obtained for the institution from the State. The act of appro- priation, bearing the signature of Gov. A\'olf, February 6, 1834, granted the College §3,000 in June, 1834, and ^3,000 annually thereafter for five years — on several conditions : First, that the first 33.000 should be applied exclusivel)' to the purchase of a site and the erection of a building; second, that the Trustees should cause gratuitous instruction to be given to fifteen young men annually (if that number should apply from this Common- wealth), in the elementary branches of an English education, in such manner as the Trustees should deem best calculated to qualify them for teachers of Common Schools; and third, that the Trustees should, on or before the first Monday of the follow- ing June. gi\e security to the Commonwealth, to the satisfaction ot the Governor, to raise and appropriate a like sum to the same object from other sources. The conditions were complied with. ORGANIZATION AND EARLY WORK.. I I By this aid, and under an economical and vigorous manage- ment by the Board, as well as through the careful and thorough educational work of the Faculty, the institution rapidly attained prosperity and an honorable standing among the colleges of the State. Later, additional aid was received from the State under the provisions of an act of the Legislature, approved April 12, 1838.* "To encourage the Arts and Sciences, promote the teaching of useful knowledge, and support the Colleges, Acade- mies and Female Seminaries" within the Commonwealth, an appropriation of $1,000 annually, for ten years, was made to each of the Colleges and Universities, and smaller sums to institutions of inferior grade. This yearly grant was enjoyed by this College, in common with the others of the State, for seven years, the last annual appropriation being reduced one-halt by the act which repealed the law. As to instruction in particular studies, the act of incorporation contains but a single special requirement. This is, that in addi- tion to the customary professorships in other colleges, "there shall be in this institution a German Professorship, the incumbent of which shall, in addition to such other duties as may be as- signed him by the Board, instruct such young men as may resort to the institution for the purpose of becoming qualified to be teachers of those schools in which both German and Fnglish are to be taught." This provision for a German Professorship was at that time something unusual in American colleges. Most of the best colleges of the country, however, now recognize the importance of the study of this language, and have provided for it as of prime value to the scholar of our day. It was included in the arrangements of this institution from the very first, on account of its natural relation to the large German element in the Church under whose auspices it was founded. For, besides the general object contemplated in its organization, the promotion of the great cause of academic and scientific education under pure Christian influences and direction, the founders of Pennsylvania College desired to interest and engage in educational movement *La\vs of Pennsylvania, 1837-1838, p. 333. 12 HlsrOKY. that lar£i-c class of our population which was of Germanic origin, aiui coiuicctcil principalh' \\ith the Lutheran Church. This is ad\ei-te«,l to in the charter, anJ torniei.1 a distinct tcature in the understatuiini;' under which the appropriation was graiited to the institution b\- the State. It was deenied fair and wise b\- the Legislature that such aid And encouragenient to the work o( education should he alVordcd to this tuuucrous And important portion ot' the citizens o( the State. The anus of its t'ounders, both general and more specific, have been, to a very high and gratifying degree, realized. The large number of >'oung men — some statistics of which will be hereatler giN-en — from this and other States, who ha\ e been educated in the College, and the eaiiiest impulse gixen b\- it to the work of education throughout the 1 utheran Church, are exidence both of the wisdom of their purpose .uul the success of their plans. The tribute of a grateful lemembrance is due to the fu--seeing and enterprising men whose counsels and labors founded this institution. It is impossible here to name them all, or indicate their relative share in the work in which they self-sacrificingly took part. Among those most prominentl}- acti\e in it, mention must be made of Dr. S. S. Schmucker, Chaimian of the Faculty of the Theological Seminary; Rev. M. Jacobs, one of the teachers in "the Gymnasium,'' and afterward, till his death. Professor of ^Lithematics and Natural Science in the College; Rev. H. L. Baugher, also a teacher in the Gymnasium, and subsequently Professor in the College, and its President from 1850 to 1868; Dr. E. Hazelius. Professor in the Theological Seminar\-; Rev. John G. Morris, Baltimore, Md.; Re\. C. P. Krauth, Philadelphia, and indeed all the "Patrons" whose names are in the act of incorpor- ation, and already given. The name of Hon. Thaddeus Stevens must also be included in the list of its most prominent and active early friends. He was at that time a citizen of Gettysburg, and took an earnest interest in the College. In the records of the Board for April 15, 1834, we find, for disinterested exertic-»ns in obtaining the appropriation from the State already referred to, a resolution of thanks " to T.

He remembered it in his will, making a bequest of a thousand dollars. Among the portraits in the Linnrtan Hall is one of him, painted in his earlier life, and pre- sented by a friend since his death. After the full organization of the College, the first great ne- cessity was a larger and more suitable building. The Academy on High street was too small to accommodate the enlarged num- ber of students, and furnish rooms for recitation, library, etc.; and the work could be carried on there only until funds could be secured and a proper building erected. This need was in view in making the application to the Legislature for aid. The effort to collect money for this purpose was prosecuted vigorously through the personal exytions of the Faculty and by agents, until at the meeting of the Board, April 23, 1835, the amount secured was such as to justify proceeding to the erection of the College. There were four different sites proposed besides that of the Academy, and considered by the Board — we.st of Carlisle street, where the Preparatory Building stands ; the hill now known as Cemetery Hill ; the elevated ground opposite the National and Citizen cemeteries, on the left of the Baltimore pike ; and a field owned by Mr. Stevens, north of the borough. The site on the Car- lisle road was first chosen. The Committee appointed to make the purchase, however, failing to conclude a contract satisfactory to Mr. McClellan, one of the owners, the Board selected, September 16, 1835, the fourth site mentioned, and purchased of Mr. Stevens six acres at $88 per acre. A plan for the building, prepared by J. C. Trautwein, architect, Philadelphia, was adopted, and a Building Committee appointed, consisting of J. B. McPherson, T. C. Miller, S. S. Schmucker, T. J. Cooper, and D. Gilbert. A contract for the erection of the College was made with Henry Winemiller, of Chambersburg, by whom it was built 1 836-1 837. The operations of the institution were transferred to the new building in the fall of the latter year.

The Collei^e edifice is a chaste specimen of the Doric order of ai'chitecture, consistiuL;- of a centre building- and two wings, with end proiections. The wluile length is 150 feet. The building is four stories high, surmounted by an octagonal cupola 17 feet in diameter and 24 feet high-, with observatory on top.

It contains Recitation RiHMUs, Cdiapel, Halls o\' Literary Sojjieties, Librariies, Reading RotMUs, as well as rooms for the occupancy of students.

The smallness of this sum is surprising, \iewed in the light of the great cost of building in our times. in. rUOC^RKSS-Ml^nTFICWTION OV CHARTER. .■\tter the erection of the College edilice, the Building Commit- tee, under order of the Board, proceeded to ha\e the " Campus," the name gi\ en to the grounds about the institution, somewhat giMiled and le\ eled. h^'om the amount of money spent, and the time occupied in this work, a great deal must have been needed.

That first effort, how- ever, would not have amounted to much, had not the work been afterwards taken hold of by enterprising students. Their com- mendable work in this connection. will be noticed, when we come to give some account of the Linna;an A.s.sociation. The College wells were dug, one between September, 1835, and April, 1836, the other between September, 1838, and April, 1839. That at the janitor's hou.se was made first. The educational work of the institution was carried forward by the Faculty with high aims and self-sacrificing devotion. The Faculty underwent but little change — the original incum- bents of the different chairs continuing their services with a steadiness that contributed greatly to the success of the College. The relation of Drs. Schmucker and Hazel ius was understood to be but temporary. Prof Marsden resigned April 23, 1835. Rev. Wm. M. Reynolds, who had been for some time previ- ously ofiFiciating as Principal of the Preparatory Department was, April, 1834, elected Professor of the Latin Language and Litera- ture. In 1837, Herman Haupt, A. M., was appointed Professor of Civil P2ngineering and Architecture. He resigned in 1839, receiving the thanks of the Board "for his valuable and gratuitous services." In September, 1838, Rev. H. I. Smith, A. M., of Bos- ton, Mass., was called to the Professorship of German Language and Literature and French. He served till 1843, when he re- signed, and soon after became Professor in Columbia College, New York. Provision was also made at this time for instruction in Anatomy and Physiology, by the appointment of D. Gilbert, M. D., as lecturer in that department. On a motion of Mr. Thaddcus Stevens, in 1839, the Board commenced a movement to establish a Laiv Department in the institution. Hon. Daniel Durkee, of York, was elected as the Professor. His removal to Getty.sburg, though not e.s.sential, was represented as desirable. Judge Durkee, however, failed to accept, and the Law Depart- ment never became a reality. M. L. Stoever, A.

A MOPiKKwnoN OF UHE CHARTER took place In 1850, under an act of the Legislature incorporating Franklin and Marshall Col- lege, Lancaster.* In 1787 a College had been founded at that place uiider tlie name of l-'ranklin College, under a Board of Trustees, one-third of whom were to be of the Lutheran Church, one-third of the German Reformed Church, and the remain- ing third t'rom other denominations of Christians. It had been originated and carried on in the interest of higher education, among the citizens of the State " of German birth or extraction." In 1S50 an arrangement was completed b\- which another institu- tion of ihe Reformed Church, Marshall College, was removed to Lancaster, and the interest in F'ranklin College belonging to that Church was united with it, under the name of " Franklin and Marshall College." whilst the interest of the Lutheran Church in it was transferred to Penns\-hania College. The act of the Leg- islature, approved April 19th, 1850, transferring this one-third of the value of tlie real estate of Franklin College to Gett}-sburg, provides that the fund thus paid over shall be permanent!}- in- vested by the Board of Trustees of Penns}-lvania College "for the support of a separate professorship in said institution, to be st}-led ' The Franklin Professorship.' of which the first incumbent shall *Ev.

It also provides "that the Lutheran Trustees of Franklin College shall be added to the existing Trustees of Pennsylvania College, who shall together constitute the Board of Trustees of Pennsylvania College, and shall hereafter perpetuate their own number by a new election when any member vacates his seat by death, resignation, or non- attendance for three successive years," and repeals "so much of the Charter of Pennsylvania College as is inconsistent with the twelfth and fourteenth sections of this act." By the modification thus made, a number of important changes were effected in the organic law of the institution : First, the corporate body, chartered as the " Patrons of Pennsylvania Col- lege," by which the Board of Trustees were elected from time to time, for a limited term of office, ceased ; Second, the Board of Trustees became a self-perpetuating body, filling vacancies in its own ntimber by elections, whenever they occur from the three causes mentioned ; Thii'd, the number of Trustees was increased from twenty-one to thirty-si.x ; Fcnirtli, the right of nominating for the incumbent of the Franklin Professorship was fixed in the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of Pennsylvania. IV. DEVELOPMENT OF THE CURRICULUM— FACULTY. The course of study, as already indicated, was from the first arranged after the best recognized conception and standard of American collegiate education. It was meant to embrace, in well-balanced combination, thorough classical, literary, math- ematical, and scientific instruction. An honorable grade of prep- aration has always been required for entrance, and the work of the different departments has been conducted with a controlling view to accuracy and an energetic development of the mental powers. Though the corps of professors was for some time small, yet by their varied and self-sacrificing labors and great ^ 2 1 8 HISTORY. earnestness in their respective departments, they soon secured for the institution a highly creditable position among the best col- leges of the State and the country. It is interesting to trace in the records of both the Board and the Faculty, in rules adopted for examinations and dropping incapable or unsuccessful students, the frequent evidences of a fixed purpose to make the work thorough and grade it up to a high standard. And hampered as the institution has generally been, by want of funds to secure desirable appliances, it has constantly aimed to keep abreast with every true advancement in collegiate education in the country. A statement has already been given of the several changes in the Faculty, and the additions made till 1845. In April of this year, Rev. W. H. Harrison, a graduate of the class of '43, was appointed Assistant Professor of Languages for a year. Half of his time was devoted to the work of strengthening the Parent P^ducation Society, which was then an important agency in pro- moting ministerial education in our Church. April 18, 1850, Prof Reynolds resigned the chair of Latin Language and Literature, Mental Philosophy and Logic, having accepted a call to the presidency of Capital University, Colum- bus, Ohio. The vacancy was provided for in the fall of that same year by a transfer of the Latin Language and Literature to the charge of Prof Stoever. Prof Stoever's professorship still included History; and Intellectual Science was re-connected with the department of the President, to which it had belonged up to 1846. At the close of the collegiate year in 1850, Dr. Krauth re- signed the presidency of the College, and accepted the professor- ship of Church History and Philology in the Theological Semi- nary. This terminated an administration of sixteen years. It had been marked by great ability, zeal and success. He gave to his work the devotion of high talent, fine scholarship and earnest faithfulness, and contributed greatly to the establishment of pub- lic confidence in the institution. The resolutions adopted by the Board of Trustees, in accepting his resignation, attest the high esteem in which his long and self-sacrificing services were held. Dr. Baugher was, September 19, 1850, unanimously elected as DEVELOPMENT OF THE CURRICULUM — FACULTY. 1 9 Dr. Krauth's .successor, and entered on the duties of his office in the fall of the same year. Having been connected with the insti- tution from its foundation, Dr. Baugher brought with him into the office the ripe fruit of large experience in College work, and a devotion that could not fail to carry it successfully forward. His acceptance of the presidency vacated the professorship of the Greek Language and Literature. The Board of Trustees at once appointed to this professorship Prof F". A. Muhlenberg, of Franklin College, Lancaster, which was about to be dissolved. Prof Muhlenberg took charge of this department at the opening of the following term, October 24, 1850. In February, 1853, he resigned the professorship of the Greek Language and Litera- ture, in order to accept the appointment as "Franklin Professor of Ancient Languages," made by the Lutheran members of the Franklin College Board, in accordance with the terms on which the Lutheran interest in that institution was transferred to Penn- sylvania College. In the Franklin Professorship thus established, Prof Muhlenberg taught with marked ability and success till August, 1867, when he resigned, in order to assume the presi- dency of Muhlenberg College, just organized at Allentown. In 185 1, at the request of the Board of Trustees, preferred through Dr. Baugher, the Synod of Pennsylvania undertook the endowment of a " Professorship of the German Language and Literature" in the institution, the right of nominating the incum- bent to belong forever to the Synod. In 1854 the necessary funds were reported as collected. Rev. W. J. Mann, of Philadel- phia, was nominated and elected to this professorship, but felt it his duty to decline. A year later, in 1855, Dr. C. F. Schaiffer, of Easton, was chosen, and in the spring of 1856 he assumed the duties of the position. Only about one-half of his time, how- ever, was given to the College. In accordance with an arrange- ment developed during the work of securing the endowment, and insisted on by the Synod of Pennsylvania, the professorship was made to do duty in the Theological Seminary. The Pro- fessor himself being strongly inclined to this, the Synod of Penn- sylvania in 1858 desired to know of the Board "on what terms the German Professorship might be released from duties in the 20 HISTORY. College." The College, however, declined to consent to any change which would reduce the amount of German instruction, or make the professorship in the College subordinate, or a mere adjunct to another. The status of the German in the College remained for some years indefinite and uncertain. In i860, however, this was settled by the adoption in the Board of Trus- tees of the following resolution: "That the Faculty of the Col- lege be instructed to introduce the study of the German Lan- guage and Literature as a part of tlic regular College course, special cases excepted, of which the Faculty shall be judge — provided that in cases where the parents or guardians of stu- dents may request in writing an omission of the study of Ger- man, it shall not be made obligatory." By this action the original design of the College in this direction was put in the way of better accomplishment than at any earlier time. Provision had always been made, indeed, for the study of the German to some fair degree; but in constituting it "part of the regular course," it received a new and worthy position; and the institution became one of the first in giving this language the status in American collegiate education which so many other colleges have since accorded it. In September, 1852, the Board appointed H. S. Huber, M. D., of Gettysburg, lecturer on Anatomy and Physiology in the place of Dr. D. Gilbert, who had removed to Philadelphia. No further change took place in the corps of instruction till the resignation of Dr. C. F. Schseffer, September 12, 1864. Dr. Schseffer re- signed in order to assume the duties of a professorship to which he had been called in the Lutheran Theological Seminary which the Synod of Pennsylvania was then organizing in Philadelphia. After his withdrawal, which took place suddenly just before the opening of the first term of 1 864-1 865, the officers of the Synod, in accordance with the desire of the Faculty, made temporary provision for the instruction in German, appointing Mr. G. F. Spieker, then a student in the Theological Seminary, Gettys- burg, as a special Tutor for that purpose. In consequence of the fact that the Synod's nomination. Rev. G. A. Hinterleitner, to the professorship, presented to the Board August 9, 1865, was DEVELOPMENT OF THE CURRICULUM FACULTY. 21 submitted with the understanding that the Professor was not to give instruction in the Theological Seminary, the Board deferred an election until the rights of the Seminary should be decided, and requested a continuance of temporary provision. The officers of Synod failing to make such provision, Mr. Spieker was continued another year under appointment by the institution. August 8, 1866, the Synod having nominated Rev. J. F. Wilken, of Wartburg, Tenn., for the vacant professorship, in place of Mr. Hinterleitner, who had withdrawn his name, the nomination was confirmed by the Board. The Board, in proceeding to ballot, put on record the distinct statement that in doing so it did not " design in any wise to decide upon or affect the claims of the Theological Seminary in said professorship." Since that time, however, the professorship has done no service in the Seminary. In 1864 two new professorships were endowed — the Graeff Professorship of the P2nglish Language and Literature, and the Ockershausen Professorship of the Natural Sciences. By the liberal help thus given to the College by the persons whose names these professorships bear, and by other worthy contribu- tions to its endowment from many friends of the institution, the course of study was considerably enlarged, and additional ad- vantages were Secured to the students. It had long been felt that the proper demands of the belles-lettres branch of instruction could be met only in a special professorship devoted to that department. The awakened interest, too, then manifesting itself in the natural sciences all over the country, made the additional provision in these sciences very opportune. April 19, 1865, Rev. Dr. J. B. Bittinger, of Sewickley, Pa., was elected to the Chair of English. At the same time. Prof Alfred M. Mayer, of Balti- more, was chosen to the new professorship of the Natural Sciences. By the latter appointment, the subjects before included in Dr. Jacobs' department were divided. Dr. Jacobs retaining Mathematics and Astronomy, and Chemistry and Physics forming the department under charge of Prof Mayer. The latter entered upon the duties of his position at the opening of the collegiate year 1865-1866. Dr. Bittinger felt it his duty to decline the professorship to which he had been called, and Rev.

They indicated it as the chair of "the Creek L.anguage and Literature," witli "such other studies as might from time to time be assigned to it by the Hoard." Dr. Muhlenberg tc-rmi- nated his work in the institution with the close of the College year in the next August. At tlu; mec;ting of the Trustees, August 7, 1S67, a nomination for tlie jjrofessorship was receive( the institution out of the " (iettys- bur^ (jynmasium," but was called for by the general aim and work of the Collej.je. It was necessary both for the preparation of candidates for the I'Veshnian class, and as a sclujol to furnish a thorouj^h I'jif^lish education to youuf.; men who, without in- tendinf.^ to enter Cc^lle^e, desired a better trainin^^ for life and business than the common schools and academies furnished. Tile work of the Preparatory I.)epartmcnt has always had an im- portant bearin^f on the prtjsperity of the institutir>n, t;nablin^ it to assert for itself a f^ood standard of (jualification for entrance, as well as to secure larj^er classes; and the history of tlie College would be very one-sided and defective, if it did not present .some account of this Department. To the men who have j^iven their labors and cares to this f)art of the institution, as IVincipals and instructors, is due no small share of the success of our edu- cational work. It is i)ro|josed, thereff>re, to f^ive here a brief account of the facts and list of teachers connected with the Preparatory .School. This dei>artment was, from the first, j)laced under the general care and supervisic^n of the I'"aculty. 'Ihe whole institution was 38 HISTORY. placed under one administrative authority. The first teacher elected by the Board of Trustees was Mr. F. Friederici — ap- pointed September 26, 1832. He proved to be a gentleman of somewhat eccentric genius; and after a year's service, he was, on intimation to him of its desirableness, allowed to resign, with a kind testimonial from the grateful Board to " his extensive acquaintance with the languages and his eminent success in teaching." Mr. Friederici's "success" in that short time was sufficiently positive to fix in the minds of the students some al- most imperishable recollections of his ways. His place was sup- plied by the appointment of Rev. Wm. M. Reynolds, a graduate of Jefferson College, at Canonsburg, who became Principal of the Preparatory Department, and remained in that position, with a shprt interruption, until the appointment of M. L. Stoever, Sep- tember 16, 1 84 1. In the early years of the institution the members of the Faculty took part in the instruction of the students in the Preparatory. As no class was graduated before 1834, there must have been only Sophomore and Freshman classes formed the first year of the College history. The College Professors, therefore, had time to teach in that Department, and the ex- tended schedule of recitations there, as recorded in the Faculty Minutes, shows that there must have been need of such ser- vices. The first help, besides this, afforded to the Principal, of which mention is found, was in the Faculty's appointment (November 16, 1832) of Mr. Ezra Keller — afterward Dr. Keller — who must then have been a Freshman — to teach Arithmetic and Grammar two hours each day. May 29, 1833, Mr. Keller was requested to take "the entire instruction of the English classes in the Preparatory Department, except so far as attended to by Messrs. Baugher and Jacobs." Messrs. D. Hoover and Charles W. Schaeffer were appointed assistant teachers in 1834. Mr. Schaeffer resigned in 1835, when Mr. F. Kurtz Heisly, a graduate of Jefferson College, was appointed Tutor. Mr. Heisly resigned in 1837, and Mr. Emanuel Frey was chosen in his place. The instruction in the department continued to be given by the Principal and one or two Tutors, as the number of THE PREPARATORY DEI'ARTMENT. 39 students required, until the resignation of Prof. Stoever'.s Princi- palship in ii)/, i8^;3-iS4i.

VII. EDUCATIONAL APPLIANCES, APPARATUS, ETC. Library. — In the Gymnasium, "students of any denomina- tion, destined for the ministry of the gospel," had gratuitous access to the library of the Theological Seminary. For the 46 HISTORY. accommodation of others, a separate library, we are told in a circular, was forming. The collection must have been very small, however, for in April, 1834, it is treated as nothing by the Board, and an appropriation of ^500 is made for "the purchase of an incipient library." In the following September, the Faculty report over 700 volumes, the greater part of which were pur- chased with that appropriation. At the same time acknowledg- ment is made of a large donation of very valuable books from Mr. Wm. Gwynn Jones, of Baltimore, and $100 are set apart to be annually expended in -the increase of the Library. As the new College edifice was not yet erected, in 1835 a room for the Library was rented of Prof Jacobs. Much care was exercised in those early years as to the kind of books allowed to be in it, as in 1834 a motion was made in the Board — not by a clergy- man — "to remove certain novels" from it. "After some debate," however, "on motion of Mr. Stevens, the subject was indefinitely postponed." In 1840 the number of volumes was 1,047. Additions were gradually made by purchase and by donations. In 1854 there were 2,356 volumes, at which time, through the efforts of the Faculty and the co-operation of kind friends, the nucleus of a special Library fund was formed, amounting to ^1,000, the inter- est of which was to be used in purchasing books. A special donation of books was received in 1855 from Dr. H. H. Muhlen- berg, of Reading, Pa., consisting of 378 volumes, with a case to contain them. At the same time the Conversations Lexicon, 10 volumes, was received from Mr. Charles A. Morris, of York. About a year later. Dr. H. H. Muhlenberg presented 100 vol- umes more, and Prof F. A. Muhlenberg gave 100 volumes. In 1857 Dr. H. H. Muhlenberg purchased the library of Rev. J. N. Hoffman, deceased, and presented it to the College. By these gifts, and by smaller contributions of many friends, among others Hon. James Buchanan, the Library received numerous works of much value. The invested Library fund was increased to ^1,500 in 1866, by a dividend of fifty per cent, upon the basis of the stock held in the Bank of Gettysburg. By a judicious appropriation of the EDUCATIONAL APPLIANCES, APPARATUS, ETC. 47 proceeds annually for the purchase of the best works directly related to the studies of the College, and by other sources of increase, the Library has been steadily enlarged, and has now become respectable in size and well adapted to its distinctive ser- vice. It numbers at present about 8,200 volumes, and occupies the large room on the third floor of the College, on the north side, corresponding to the chapel on the south. This, however, does not exhibit all the library advantages enjoyed by the stu- dents. Each of the Literary Societies has a library of between six and seven thousand volumes, well selected from the various branches of general literature — a more particular account of which will belong to the sketches of the Societies. All together, the libraries number about 21,000 volumes. Philosophical and Chemical Apparatus. — The apparatus in the department of the physical sciences was, of course, at first quite meager. In the hands of Prof Jacobs, however, who pos- sessed rare skill, as well as industry, in utilizing and extemporiz- ing instruments for illustrative experiments, it was made to do very efficient service. As rapidly as possible, it was increased in amount and advanced in quality. A large and valuable addition was made to it in 1865, and a further increase in 1869. In 1872 another enlargement was made, particularly in the apparatus and appliances for instruction in chemistry, and provision was made for Laboratory work. The special donation of ^1,000 for this purpose by Mr. Samuel Appold, of Baltimore, deserves to be mentioned. Ampler provision has since been gradually made, both in facilities for Laboratory work, and in the various other needful aids to scientific instruction. Each year has witnessed some improvement, but it all looks, nevertheless, to a complete- ness of equipment not yet attained. The philosophical apparatus at present is very respectable. What is possessed is first-class, but there are deficiencies that need to be made up. Progress in the physical sciences has recently been so great as to call for further enlargement of facilities in this direction. Astronomical Apparatus and Observatory. — A small, but very excellent Telescope was presented to the institution in 1854 by Dr. H. H. Muhlenberg. In 1865 Rev. John E. Graeff, of 48 HISTORY. . Philadelphia, secured for the College a superior, achromatic, refracting Telescope, of over nine feet focal length, with an object glass of six and a half inches aperture, the manufacture of Mertz & Son, opticians, of Munich, Germany. This instrument was purchased of the Sharon Observatory, near Philadelphia. It is furnished with five magnifying powers, varying from eighty-five to four hundred and sixty times ; with a complete set of sun- glasses, a prismatic reflector, an annular micrometer, and a ter- restrial eye-piece. The Observatory was built in 1874, and besides the Telescope, is supplied with a fine Transit Instrument, with graduated circle and the necessary attachments, and also with a good Break-Cir- cuit Chronometer, manufactured by T. S. and J. D. Negas, chro- nometer-makers to U. S. Navy, New York. Cabinet. — As early as 1835 we find records referring to the formation of a Mineralogical, Geological, and Natural History Cabinet. In 1844, by resolution of the Board, it was named The Morris Cabinet. The organization of the Linnaean Association in 1844, and the subsequent erection of the Linnsean Hall in 1 846- 1 847, greatly helped to foster interest in the collection and effort to enlarge it. The students collected many valuable speci- mens, and various friends furnished acceptable and useful contri- butions to it. In 1866 the Mineralogical Cabinet of Mr. Seymour, of New York, was purchased for ^2,500 — " an extensive collec- tion, the result of thirty years' industry, containing many of the finest and rarest specimens of minerals in crystalline form to be found in this country." Numerous and valuable additions have been-made at various times since — probably a thousand specimens in the last three years. At present the Mineralogical Cabinet is in every way excellent, and admirably adapted to the purposes of instruction. Few colleges possess a better one. The specimens are typical, and represent not only the main important mineral species, but also many of the rarer ones, exhibiting often in many suites the multiplicity of forms belonging to the same mineral. The Geological Collection contains an excellent suite of speci- mens, representing the lithology of Pennsylvania, being duplicates furnished by the second Geological Survey. The Carboniferous COPIED BY W. H. TIPTON, HENRY LEWIS BAUGHER, Professor 1832-1850; President 1850-1868. GETTYSBURG, PA. DEGREES. 49 era of Pennsylvania is well represented in fossils and lithology. There is not as full a collection in other departments of geology as is desired. In 1867, Miss Elizabeth C. Morris, of Germantown, Pa., who had been for some time deeply interested in botanical study, pre- sented to the institution a large and very valuable Botanical Col- lection. Subsequently, Prof Thos. C. Porter, of Easton, who is well known in this State for his researches, especially in the Cryptogams, gave the College a fine collection of Mosses and Hepatica. The general Herbarium and the Porter Herbarium of Mosses and Hepatica together contain at least 5,400 specimens, representing 5000 species. The whole is well arranged and in good condition, being a full representation of the Atlantic Amer- ican Flora. A Conchological Cabinet, containing some rare and valuable specimens, has been collected by Dr. J. G. Morris, of Baltimore, whose contributions to the different parts of the Museum, and whose personal labor in arranging much of it, from the earliest years of the College to the present, deserve a special acknowl- edgment. In Zoology, again by the generous efforts of Dr. Morris, we have the nuclei of collections in several of the animal sub- kingdoms. Miscellaneous Collections, numismatological, Indian relics, his- torical mementoes, natural curiosities, battle-field memorials, etc., help to make up the aggregate Museum, and not only add to its interest, but frequently serve the purposes of instruction. VIII. DEGREES. Regular Degrees. — To all members of the Graduating Class, in full and regular standing, a diploma is granted conferring the Academic degree of Bachelor of Arts. The degree of Master of Arts, in course, is conferred on Bachelors of three or more years' standing ; but, by resolution of the Board of Trustees, all applicants for this degree must make application to the Faculty, in writing, at least one week before the Annual Commencement. 4 50 HisroKY. The dci^roo of Ixichelor of Science is conferred on students who, with adequate previous attainments, pursue a special scien- tific course, and sustain an examination for the degree. rrovision is made for post-graduate degrees upon completing a prescribed course of study, according to the degree for which the student is a candidate, from the following general depart- ments: INIoral Philosophy and Evidences of Christianity-. ]\Ieta- physics, the Physical Sciences, Mathematics and its Applications, the Ancient Classical Lan^tuages and Literature, French and Ger- man. Political and Social Science. History. Biology. Comparative Philologw Philosoph)- and Letters. A satisfactor\- examination on the prescribed course is required, and also a thesis written to be submitted to a committee of the Faculty for their approval. Honorary Degrees Conferred. — Pennsyl\-ania College has not been lavish with these favors. She has not allowed herself the easy freedom of undiscriminating and excessive granting of honorary titles, that has marked the practice of some colleges and universities of the country, and lowered the dignit}' and value of such distinctions. Some may think she has been un- wisely sparing with these gifts; but her course is justified by the estimate at which their worth is rated. The general standard which the Board c~>f Trustees adopted for itself, in 1859. will be approved as reasonable — that the Gradam Sacnr T/h'oA)^i\e 7)rtY<>m must not be conferred upon a clergvTnan "w^ho has not given evidence satisfoctory to a majority of the Board of exten- sive theological learning, by writings or by his diligent studies." but "must be a man generally known in the communit)* as a scholar, sedulously pursuing theological science, and rising above his brethren around him in scholarh* attainments." Nevertheless, the recipients of hononarj' scholastic degrees of various kinds from the College form quite a long list, beginning in 1835. as follows: 7. jyif Degree of D. D. or S. T. D. 1S35. Rev.

Honors. — In the earlier period of the institution, the Class Honors consisted in the special appointments for the Latin Salu- tatory, English Salutatory, Greek Oration, and Valedictory. These appointments were made on the basis of superior scholar- ship and suitableness. In 1861, in consequence of difficulties in the application and operation of this method, the Board enacted a new rule, viz.. That the Faculty " assign the honors of the institution for scholarship, good conduct, etc., three or more in number, as they may be determined by the system of notation in use, irrespective of the Exercises of Commencement, said honors to be entered upon the records of the institution and to be announced on the Commencement programmes ;" and further, that " in assigning the Valedictory, Greek Speech, Latin and English Salutatories, and German Speech, the Faculty assign in accordance with the special capacities of the members of the class for the particular exercise, irrespective of the honors afore- said." This made the Honors and Appointments distinct things; and if they have sometimes coincided in falling to the same per- son, it has been simply because " special capacity for the particu- lar exercise " threw them together. The following is a list of those who received the honors and appointments from 1834, when the first class was graduated, down to the present time : L. stands for Latin Salutatory, E. for English Salutatory, G. for 54 HISTORY Greek Oration, Ger. for German Oration, P. for Philosophical Oration, and V. for Valedictory. The figures denote First Honor, Second Honor, etc. L.— W. H. Smith. v.— D. G. Barnitz. 1835- L.— M. G. Dale. \'.— Theo. Stork. L. — E. Fre}-. V. — Geo. Diehl. 1838. L. — M. L. Stoever. v.— J. E.

In 1862, Paymaster C. W. Hassler, of the United States Navy, offered a gold medal, to be awarded to the best Latin scholar in the Junior class of 1863. In 1866, he contributed for perma- nent investment the sum of ^250, to purchase annually a gold medal to be awarded to the student of the Junior cla.ss who at the end of the year is the best Latin scholar.

Scholarships. — In 1857, W. G. Thompson, Esq., of Lancaster, established a permanent Scholarship for the purpose of giving the benefit of a collegiate education to the most successful in- digent pupil who should pass through the prescribed course in the High School of Gettysburg. Mr. Daniel W. Hall, of Washington, D. C, in 1863, left to the institution a legacy of ;^3,ooo to endow scholarships for the edu- cation of indigent pious young men for the ministry of the Gos- pel in the Lutheran Church. The Board of Trustees accordingly constituted eight permanent scholarships, based on this gift and an earlier contribution by Mr. Hall, to be used for the purpose designated, and named them the " Hall Scholarships," as a me- morial of the giver. • X. GOVERNMENT, DISCIPLINE, ETC. This subject has a history, but it shall here remain unwritten. Human nature — especially student nature — being what it is, it would indeed be strange if in the course of fifty years of College life, besides the need of constant, thoughtful, and kindly super- 6o HISTORY. vision and helpful direction, there had not been frequent occa- sions for repressive and even exclusive discipline. But these are experiences that, like the admonitions of the sacred privacy of home, are not for the pen of histor\% but to pass into oblivion as soon as the necessities that occasioned them are past and the happier fruits of the correction are secured. When the alumni and former students are found in the honorable activities of man- ful life, rising to distinction in the professions and callings in which they are achieving careers of usefulness in the servdce of God and humanit}^ the " dead past " may well be allowed to entomb all experiences of this sort in unbroken silence, so that there shall be no " reminiscences " of them for either boasting or mortification. The education of the heart and the development of character, in connection with the training of the mind in our higher institu- tions, have always involved some of the most difficult problems in educational work. They make the subject of college govern- ment and order one of great importance. This importance was recognized by this institution from the first, and determined the adoption of the system of supervision and the rules of order and conduct that were regarded as best suited not only to success in study, but to the safety and culture of pure, moral and Christian character and life. It led to the establishment of the kind of government which is usually called " parental," to indicate at once the carefulness of its supervision and the kindliness of its discipline. It has always aimed sedulously to guard the moral purit\' and safet}- of the young men placed in its care, to recover the erring, and strengthen the principle of self-respect and manly Christian self-control. A very^ gratifying success in this respect has marked the histor\^ of Pennsylvania College life, so that there has been comparatively infrequent necessit}^ for the severer forms of discipline, and the general grade of deportment and moral life in the institution has been good. No special change has taken place in the methods, except that under the present presidency, in 1868, the evening visitation of the students' rooms by the Tutor, some time between bell-ringing and ten o'clock, of which the former students have distinct remembrance, was abolished, and the students were placed on their honor to observ^e the hours of RELIGIOUS RELATIONS AND HISTORY. 6l study and presence in the building, under rules of regular per- missions and reporting. The experience of the years since has justified the change. XI. RELIGIOUS RELATIONS AND HISTORY. Pennsylvania College had its origin in Christian faith and Christian aims. The unique fact already rnentioned, that its establishment came through the desires and plans of the Theo- logical Seminary, is itself proof of this, and shows that its founders consecrated its educational service and influence to Christ and His Church. The conception of education which underlies the foundations of the institution is that the young can be rightly trained for the work and responsibilities of life, for their place and duties in both society and the State, only when their intellect is educated under the light and quickening force of Christian truth and principles. It holds that the highest end of the educational process is char- acter, that the true manhood is Christian manhood, and that education fails of its noblest function if carried on in neglect of the moral and spiritual nature, or the truth given for it. It be- lieves that Christianity rightly bears the commission to " teach all nations," and becomes the true educator because it gives, in connection with all other knowledge, the great truths most vital for character. This conception accepts all the truths of nature and science, of human experience and history, as divine, to be studied and used under the special illumination that comes from revelation. It believes that the course of history and the facts of science can be correctly and fully interpreted, in their har- monies and significance, only when the teacher views everything under the explaining light of the great plan of redemption which solves the meaning of the world's design and movement. Chris- tianity gives the key for the explanation of nature, and holds the highest commission to lead the way through the fields of science and philosophy. All through history the impulse and power of Christianity for education have been most strikingly shown. Nearly all the great universities of Christendom are monuments of its educational tendencies and powers. It is the great friend 62 HISTORY. of science, and the best educator of men for their place and work in hfe. The strong words of Daniel Webster most strikingly express the truth : " It has been the duty, as it has been the effort, of the great and good, to sanctify human knowledge, to bring it to the fount and to baptize learning into Christianity, to gather up all its productions," its earliest and its latest, its blos- soms and its fruit, and lay them all upon the altar of religion and virtue." * Founded thus for the purposes of Christian higher education, it was established also under the auspices of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, not in any contracted, narrow or sectarian sense, but as an institution in and through which the Lutheran Church might bear an honorable part in the great work of American College education. The whole organization of the College, therefore, the curriculum, the rules of order, daily re- quirements and Sunday exercises, were determined with refer- ence to this great design of permeating the training of the young in all departments of letters, science and philosophy, with the all-informing truths of religion. The moral and religious elements were from the first made prominent, and kept so. Natural Theolog}', Christian Evidences, and Moral Science, at once took full place in the course of study; and the instruction was, and has been ever kept, directed with a view to personal character as well as mental training. The entire teaching of the institution has been sought to be made conducive to the estab- lishment of the students in the great truths of God, responsi- bility, duty, and all the doctrines and moralit}' of the Gospel. The -institution sees no conflict between religion and science, but recognizes training in both as the true education. Morning and evening prayers, with required attendance of the students, from the first formed, and still form, part of the daily order; with a special Biblical recitation e\'ery Sabbatli — for man\- late years in the Greek Testament — for direct instruction in the doctrines of Christianity and the duties of the Christian life. Attendance upon the public services of the Lord's Day have been insisted on, as * In the Supreme Court, in the Girard Will case. RELIGIOUS RELATIONS AND HISTORY. 63 not only .strcn^rthcnin<,r to the principle of virtue, but as directly bringing the students under the means of grace. Through the entire history of the College, a very large pro- portion of the students have been members of the Church, many of them pursuing their studies with a view to the ministry of the Gospel. In very few colleges, indeed, has the number of church members been relatively so large, or the tone of moral and .spiritual life so healthy and positive. About three-fourths oftho.se in the College proper have been professing Christians. Taking the Preparatory Department into the count, where the students are younger, the proportion has been somewhat less. Out of 663 graduates — including the class of 1882 — 368 have been for the ministry. About 120 others, taking only a partial course, have studied for this service. From the beginning a regular general weekly prayer-meeting has been carried on by the students, and most of the time each class has had a Class Prayer-meeting. These devotional services, attended in greater or less degree, have helped to sustain and quicken the religious influence in the institution. , Under the encouragement of Dr. Baughcr and others, a "Young Men's Christian Asssociation" was formed March 16, 1867. It was organized, as stated in its constitution, "for mutual encouragement and assistance in every good word and work, for united efforts for the .salvation of souls, for the improvement of the .spiritual condition of the students, for obtaining information concerning the progress of our Redeemer's kingdom, and stimu- lating interest and activity in the cause of missions." The or- ganization has been .steadily maintained. It has held monthly meetings, at which addresses are delivered by both active and honorary members, questions of religious interest discussed in es.says and in way of mutual conference, and information is reported from mission fields and other colleges, suited to culti- vate and enlarge interest in the cause of religion. The Associa- tion provides for a public annual discourse, delivered by some minister, on the Lord's-Day evening of the Commencement week. These public discourses, attracting large audiences, have thus far been given by the following gentlemen: 1868, Rev. Dr. 64 HISTORY. C. W. Schaeffer; 1869. Rev. Dr. J. T. Duryea; 1870, Rev. Dr. J Swartz; 1871, Rev. Dr. F. W. Conrad; 1872, Rev. S. B. Barnitz 1873, Rev. S. Domer; 1874, Rev. Dr. Daniel March; 1875, Rev Dr. D. F. Bittle; 1876, Rev. B. F. Alleman; 1877, Rev. Dr. C. A Stork; 1878, George Miiller. Bristol. England; 1879, Rev. W W.Criley; 1880, Rev. Dr. W. W. Patton; 1881, Rev. Dr. Thomas Guard. This Association has done good and serviceable work in the institution ever since its organization. It has stimulated Chris- tian activity, and afforded ways and opportunities for effort. On various occasions, especially in connection with seasons of un- usual religious interest, it has, under the di\ine blessing, contrib- uted largely to the success of efforts to interest the careless and bring them to Christ. The histor}' of the College has been marked by many special seasons of religious awakening and numerous conversions. In a circular issued by the Faculty' in 1849, they say of it already at that time : " It has been blessed with frequent Scriptural revivals of religion." Some of those thus referred to, and others of later date, deserve to be particularly mentioned on account of the large number of students who became Christians in connection with them and through their influence. Worthy of such special record were those enjoyed in 1837, 1841, 1843, 1846, 1850, 1866, and 1875. These occasions were marked by a decided quicken- ing of the religious life of the Christian students, by earnest and faithful preaching of the word in the Church, daily meetings for prayer and fellowship in the College, and personal effort of students among their fellow-students. Sometimes the interest reached nearly all the students, many connecting themselves with the Church, some of them here, some of them at their homes. In the religious awakening of 1875, only two of the students of the College proper, it is said, were left that did not confess the Saviour. Quite a number on this occasion, as well as in the earlier awakenings, consecrated themselves to the work of the ministr}', and are now doing devoted and effective service in the sacred office. But additions to the Church from among the students have FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. 65 not been confined to such occasions. Under the regular means of grace, surrounded by the reh'gious influences of the institu- tion, under the unremitted efforts of the instructors, there have been every year admissions in larger or smaller numbers to the Church. Students have usually formed a good part of the annual classes of catechumens and of those confirmed. It would be more than could be justly expected, that in a period of fifty years and an attendance in the aggregate of over 2500 students, there should be found no cases of deterioration of piety or surrender to depravity and sin. Considering how hard it is, even in the most moral and Christian communities, and in pious homes, to secure the young against evil in them and about them, and tide them over the perilous period of opening manhood, to guard them all safely from inevitable temptations and keep their steps from stumbling, it is not to be wondered at, however much it may be regretted, that some instances of failure should have occurred in this institution, as in all others. But the cases have been veryr few, and against the strong influence and actual order and course of life in the College. Very many have become .Christians during their course. The whole period of the institution has .presented only a few cases of students entering true Christians, and leaving it no longer such. Even in these cases the failure may not have been due to their being here. The moral and spiritual influences have been not only strongly pro- tective, but invigorating to piety, and the whole religious history of the College shows that in a gratifying degree it has been fulfill- ing its purpose as a Christian institution. XII. FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. In these days, when Colleges and Universities are established by munificent gifts or by State appropriations, it is difficult to estimate the faith and courage it required to found an institution like this without endowment. The limited subscriptions of the original "Patrons" formed but a meager and ver)' inadequate fund for so large an enterprise. The proceeds from tuition would, of course, be insufficient. But believing that a College was required by the interests of the Church and of Christian 5 66 HISTORY. education, the brave and public-spirited men who were its found- ers undertook its organization in the confidence that it would receive the needed support. The possession of the Gymnasium, in which the operations of the College were commenced, facil- itated their purpose, obviating much of the expense that in many cases needs to be met before any work can be done. The earnest purpose that began it, however, was not indifferent to the necessity of making provision for carrying it on. At the second meeting of the Board of Trustees, September, 1832, a motion was adopted asking aid from the Legislature of the State. The grant of ^18,000, with terms and conditions, has already been mentioned, as also the raising from private sources of the ^3,000 required in the act of appropriation. The institution was thus enabled to buy ground, erect buildings, and provide in incip- ient degree the needed appliances for instruction. With the tuition and the subscriptions obtained by the exertions of the Faculty, the funds sufficed also to pay the exceedingly meager salaries on which the Professors and Teachers were doing their efficient and self-sacrificing work. The reception of ^1,000 annually for six years and a half, granted by the State to each of the colleges of the Commonwealth, was of very great service in the poverty of the institution. From the first there were constant efforts to collect funds, mainly for the immediate current expenses, and in these efforts the services of the different members of the Faculty were largely employed. They were requested to, and did, utilize their vaca- tions in this way. In 1835 Prof Reynolds was sent out on col- lecting service on his salary as professor. Agents were employed from time to time, as the pressure of need became greater. Fre- quently the current expenses failed to be met, and funds had to be borrowed to provide for their payment. So the institution struggled on, doing a great and good work, but doing it with some experience of the hardness which the Israelites of old felt when they had to make their tale of bricks without straw. In the proceedings of the Board of April 18, 1844, we find the first distinct mention of the plan afterwards adopted, to secure funds for an endowment by means of the sale of Permanent FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. 6/ Scholarships, entithng the holder to the perpetual privilege of free tuition for one student. Reference to something like limited Individual Scholarships appears already in 1834, but the system does not seem to have been carried into active operation until developed in connection with the permanent form. This scheme forms so strange and unfortunate a feature in the financial history of the College, as it did in the case of many other institutions^ that it needs to be noticed with some fullness in this account. The plan for permanent scholarships was adopted on recom- mendation of the Faculty. In, September, 1844, 'the Faculty reported the sale of one at ;$500, on which, however, only the interest was then paid. The single or transient scholarships gave the privilege of free tuition through the entire course in both departments of the institution at first for ^100. In 1846, the price was raised to $150, and the use restricted to the indi- vidual named in the certificate. Subsequently, in 1850, it was reduced again to $100, for which sum the privilege was given "of educating one person through the entire course in Prepara- tory and College, or six years' instruction of different persons placed one at a time in the institution." The permanent scholar- ships also were reduced to $350. At the same time the moneys received from this source were ordered to be invested on good real estate security, the interest alone to be used for the current expenses of the institution. This seems to have been a new departure in the scholarship plan, or rather its real beginning as a scheme of endozvment. It is recorded in the minutes as a "new arrangement," and measures were adopted to make it known, and to carry it out vigorously, through employment of an agent and the earnest exertions of the Faculty. It was in this effort that Rev. A. Babb accepted an appointment as agent, whose difficult, arduous and efficient work is well remembered in many sections of the Church. In 1852, eight permanent and forty single scholarships were reported as secured. A change was at this time again made in the conditions of the latter. When their use was transferred to other persons than members of the same family, the term of tuition was limited to five years. Non-transferable Family Scholarships were also established and 68 HISTORY. offered only to " clergymen of every Christian denomination," for ^loo, with the added provision that none of these Family Scholarships should be available until one hundred should be subscribed and paid for. Although at this time already the report of the Faculty indicates that some doubts of the* wisdom of this scholarship scheme were beginning to be felt, yet as the method had been adopted hy a large number of colleges of the State, and they were pushing their agencies with excited en- thusiasm, both the Faculty and the Board were disposed to persevere. In one institution single scholarships for the regular curriculum were sold as low as $25. and in another, through the entire course in both Preparator}^ School and the College, for the same sum. A proposition to sell them at $25 for the four years' course was made and discussed in our Board. The idea that underlay all this movement was that M'ith an endowment of 350,000 or S 100,000 secured in this way, supply- ing an income for the payment of professors' salaries, the entire work of the institution would be sufficiently provided for, no matter what might be the number of the students. But the idea took no account of the changes that were destined to come in the later development of educational work in our country. Be- sides, the plan was in some cases inadequately guarded, and veryr loosely worked. Disappointment soon came. In this institution, either under a too sanguine faith in its success or by simple over- sight, no adequate provision was adopted against immediate use of the scholarships, or delaying the use till the amount aimed at was reached. The consequence was that they were for the most part -purchased — nine-tenths of them, say the Faculty in 1853 — by those who desired to use tRem immediately. There was nothing to prevent the students on the ground from purchasing scholarships, and many of them did so. Hence the proceeds from tuition began to be cut off before an}- fund was accumulated. While there was but little increase in the whole number of students, the number of paying students was much diminished, threatening the treasur}' with great embarrassment. In 1854, when the plan had been carried on sufficiently long to test its wisdom well, the Facult\' set forth the results as follows : FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. 69 " The original plan was to raise a sum equal to one or two professorships. This, it was thought, could be effected in a few years, and therefore the scholarships were made available at once, contrary to the course adopted by other institutions. The con- sequence which was foreseen by some, and pointed out, was that scholarships were sold for the most part only so far as holders desired to use them ; and therefore about five-sixths of all that have been sold are now occupied. About 72 have been sold, of which 58 qre occupied, and two have been exhausted. The Church, to which the Board naturally looked for co-operation, did not cordially engage in the work. Indeed, only a few con- gregations were in any measure interested in it. This of itself ought to settle the question concerning the value of the plan. The consequence thus far has been a failure; and what must be regarded as a greater calamity, serious embarrassment threatens the College from this source." This arraignment of the system was none too severe; and it is creditable to the candor of the Faculty that, though before favor- ing it, they so promptly go back on their tracks in its condemna- tion. They asked the Board to arrest the sale of transient scholarships, either entirely or at least so far as not to make any more available until the sum of ;^50,ooo should be raised. The response of the Board to this recommendation was the adoption of a resolution: "That an effort be made to secure the sum of ^50,000 by the sale of family scholarships [evidently not the special family scholarships to clergymen, mentioned above], at ^100, such scholarships to be confined to the College course, and not to be transferable; provided that such scholarships shall not become available until at least $50,000 shall be reali/.ed from the sale thereof" Further, " that all action by this Board upon the subject of scholarships inconsistent with this resolution be and is hereby repealed." . ' Whether or not this action was meant and expected to stop the sale of single scholarships, or as a renewed effort to carry the plan through, the result fully justified the wisdom of its adoption. For being no longer available for immediate use or as an expedient to escape the full tuition, the sale of the scholar- /O HISTORY. ships virtually ceased. The crisis of the evil was passed, but the impoverishing effects continued to be felt for a long time, and in some degree continue to this day. For though the experience of the institution with this system had been so disappointing and unhappy, the principle even of the single scholarships was not at once wholly dropped, and the sale of permanent scholarships at insufficient price was continued. In 1857, the Committee on Endowment was again authorized " to sell transient scholarships for ^100 for the College course, not transferable, and to take effect as soon as the sum of ^100,000, by contributions, sale of scholarships, etc," should be secured. Subsequently, in 1858, the single scholarship was again included, for limited and condi- tional sale, in the measures adopted by the Board to raise the needed endowment. Their non-availability for immediate use,- however, naturally prevented their sale, except in cases where the purchaser viewed the purchase as a simple contribution to the endowment fund, with no intention to claim tuition. And in 1859, ^^^ Faculty report it as a gratifying fact that seven of the transient scholarships were then expiring, and that there were no more than ten or twelve remaining, which, would be exhausted in a few years. With the single exception of one of the Family Scholarships to clergymen, issued in 1854, none of these transient scholarships are known to be any longer in existence. The permanent scholarships, of which sixteen were sold prior to 1857, were at this date raised to ^400. In 1864, the price was made ^500. Even this price was far too little. When it is remembered that the tuition is ^50 a year, and the annual inter- est oh even ;^500 is only $^0, it is at once seen what a drawback on the income of the institution the use of these scholarships has become. The last sold at that rate was in 1868. The sale of them has been wholly arrested, except at ^1,000. There are now 43 Permanent Scholarships — three that were sold for ^500 apiece, and one for ;^ 1,000. The average price was ^374.42. As they are nearly all in constant use, and the interest on ^374.42 is but ^22.46, it is apparent how heavy a reduction they cause in the annual income of the College. It would add greatly to the enjoyment of the College's semi-centennial celebration, if some of them should at this time be presented to the institution. FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. /I The Franklin Professorship. — The arrangement, under act of the Legislature dated April 19, 1850, as already narrated, to transfer the Lutheran or one-third interest in Franklin College, Lancaster, Pa., to Gettysburg, was consummated in 1853 by the payment, into the College Treasury, of the sum of ;^ 17, 169.61. This was the founding of the " Franklin Professorship." The terms of its reception gave to the Ministerium of Pennsylvania the right of nominating the Professor. The German Professorship. — By action of the Board, April 24, 1 85 I, the President of the College was authorized to request of the Synod of Pennsylvania the endowment of a " Professor- ship of German Language and Belles-Lettres," the right of nominating the incumbent to belong to the Synod forever. This proposition was favorably considered by the Synod at Allentown shortly after. They, however, changed the title of the proposed chair, so as to make it read, " Professorship of the German Lan- guage and Literature." Measures were promptly adopted to carry this purpose into effect. Rev. B. Keller, of Gettysburg, responded to the Synod's appointment as agent, and in the beginning of November, 185 i, entered upon the work of collect- ing the necessary funds. Though the money had to be gathered in comparatively small sums, yet by his laborious and indefatiga- ble exertions, Mr. Keller in three years brought the work to a successful close. At the meeting of the Synod in Reading, in 1854, its Committee appointed for founding this professorship, reported the amount collected and in the hands of the Synod's treasurer, as ;$ 15,463.28. This endowment, which was subse- quently increased to over $16,000, and still further augmented by the funds collected and used for the purchase of the German Professor's house, was, against the urgent and repeated requests of the College Board, retained in the custodianship of the Synod. The Synod claimed the right thus to hold the fund ; and no propositions, negotiations, or demands, continued almost con- stantly or repeated incessantly through many years, sometimes provoking no small amount of feeling, were successful in bringing the fund into the treasury of the College until quite recently. It seems that the system of scholarships was involved to some 72 HISTORY. considerable degree in the raising of this German Professorship fund. For, in the report of the Faculty to the College Board in 1856, they say in reference to scholarship moneys: "To the above account is to be added sales of scholarships, amounting to ;^2,250, with the interest running at least three years and amount- ing to ^405, now in the hands of the Synod of Pennsylvania, and constituting part of the fund endowing the Professorship of the German Language and Literature in Pennsylvania College. As the scholarships constitute part of a legal claim upon the Col- lege, and have had, and continue to have, incumbents upon them in the College, it is for the Board to decide whether these funds shall remain in the hands of the Synod or be transferred to the Treasurer of this Board and be subject to its control." The steps and terms involved in the transfer of the German Professorship fund into the treasury of the College, terminating a long and unhappy contest, are sufficiently important to be dis- tinctly recited. In 1877, information was received that the feeling on the part of the Synod was becoming favorable to such a transfer. The fund, it was understood, had been diminished by unfortunate investments, and was not sufficiently productive to pay the stipulated salary of the Professor. Its custodianship becoming thus a draft upon the Synodical treasury, it was felt to be inexpedient to continue to hold it. Deeming the indications favorable, the Board, June 28, 1877, appointed a Committee to take the status of the fund into consideration and report. This Committee was able at the next meeting, June 26, 1878, to report the information that the Pennsylvania Synod had recently em- powered its officers to take action in regard to both the German and the Franklin Professorship. The Franklin Professorship became involved in the questions and terms of the negotiations, in consequence of the known desire on the part of the institution to obtain a surrender of the right of nomination. The Com- mittee was enlarged and authorized, in case equal authority was found to be given to the Synodical Committee, to make a final settlement of the difference existing between the two bodies con- cerning these two professorships. The negotiations proved suc- cessful, and at the meeting of the Trustees, June 25; 1879, the FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. 73^ Committee was able to report the following terms of agreement, viz. : " This agreement, made and entered into this day of A. D. 1879, between the German Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of Pennsylvania and the Adjacent States of the one part, and the Trustees of Pennsylvania College of Gettysburg in the County of Adams, of the other part, by their Committee duly constituted, Witncsseih, That whereas negotiations have been pending between the said parties of the first and second part in reference to the settlement of all questions touching and concerning the* German Professorship in Pennsylvania College, at Gettysburg. " Nozu it is hereby agreed between the said parties in reference to said questions as follows, to wit : ''First.

It is understood and agreed between the parties to this agreement that the same shall not be binding upon the said German Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of Pennsylvania and the Adjacent States until the action of this Committee is confirmed by the said German Evangelical Lutheran Ministerium of Penn- sylvania and the Adjacent States at the approaching meeting of said Ministerium at Lebanon, Pa." The Synod at Lebanon confirmed this agreement, and subse- quently the requisite legal papers were signed and passed. Thus in 1880, twenty-six years after it was created, the fund, or so much of it as was embraced in the first specification of the agree- ment, came into the treasury of the College, and the right of nomination and election of incumbent to both the German and Franklin Professorships was surrendered to the institution. The Bethlehem house has since been sold for $ i ,800, and the money invested at 6 per cent, to the credit of the German fund. With the ^10,000 received in good securities, and independently of the Professor's house in Gettysburg, the whole German Professorship fund yielding interest is therefore at present $11,800. To this will be added whatever may be realized from the claim against the Illinois State University. Further Endowment. — A renewed effort — if effort that never ceased may be said to be renewed — to secure funds was organized in 1858. An elaborate plan was adopted by the Board, combin- ing the various forms of collection by taking subscriptions, notes on time with interest till paid, and by sale of scholarships, both transient and permanent. The effort was carried on mainly through the earnest and self-sacrificing labor of the President, with the co-operation of that steadfast friend of the College, Mr. Chas. A. Morris. There was no agent employed. The results secured seem to have been small, as detailed in the Fac- ulty report, September, i860. The subscriptions of all sorts amounted to $14,607. But only $3,537 had been paid in — more than half of this on scholarships. The reSt was largely in sub- scriptions payable in installments, and it is impossible to ascertain how much of it was ever realized. In i860 an addition of $1,000 to the investments is reported, derived mainly from scholarships. FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. 7$ We reach a new period in the history of the endowment in 1864. Up to this time the institution had, independently of the Frankhn and German Professorship Funds, but a very small investment indeed for carrying on its work. In August, 1864, the Treasurer's report showed it to be only $18,457.66; and this included the Library Fund of $1,000, and $672.25 of library investment of the Philomathsean Society. The reader of this account will be struck with the disparity between the efforts made and the results really secured. It must be remembered, however, that these results were larger, more valuable and last- ing, than might at first glance be imagined. The endowment of an institution in the proper sense is wider and more comprehen- sive than the simple investment of an. interest-bearing fund. The true endowment of a College consists in all its assets or posses- sions which have to be secured by money, and which form part of its working resources. Much capital has to be invested in buildings, cabinets, apparatus, etc., which often form the most useful part of its endowment. A remembrance of this will explain the apparent discrepancy between the money given and the sum stated in this showing, at the close of the efforts up to this date — and also as to the same feature in the subsequent history. The records of the institution abound in evidence of the large amount, though appropriated in small sums, required to be invested in these collateral relations. Not to mention any of the appropriations for apparatus and library of earlier date, we note only, as illustrative examples, a grant in 1865 of $1,000, and in 1866 of $1,500 for Philosophical Apparatus, and $2,500 in 1866 for the purchase of the Seymour Cabinet. The erection of the Professors' houses must not be forgotten. These represent a regular rental, and form, therefore, actually productive invest- ments. Any one who visits the College to-day will see in its various buildings, its Geological and Mineralogical Cabinets, its Chemical and Philosophical Apparatus, its Observatory, etc., where no small amount of what the Church and friends of the institution have given has been invested — which investments are among the lasting and essential parts of the institution's capital and means of work. ']6 HISTORY. In 1S64, the war for the Union ha\-ing- been closed, business being acti\'e. many persons having rapidly acquired fortunes, and a generous readiness to gi\e showing itself throughout the coun- try, it was deemed a favorable time to accomplish the object which the College had so long desired and stri\-en after almost in \ain. Under suggestion of the Facult\-, and encouraged by tlie assurances of some whose hearts were meditating liberal things, the Board oi Trustees called a Convention of the- friends of the institution, to be held in llarrisburg, on the 18th of Octo- ber, "to initiate measures for the endowment of the College." The Con\ention was held. After an address on the subject of education b)- Dr. F. W. Conrad, the interests of the institution and the proposed endowment were discussed. This was followed by the announcement of a contribution of S^o.ooo by Rev. John E. GraelT, of Philadelphia, for the endowment of a chair of "English Language and Literature;" of S20.000 by the brothers IMessrs. A. F. and Geo. P. Ockershausen. of New York Cit)-, for endowing a professorship of the Physical Sciences; and a number of other large and generous subscriptions. Fhis was ver}' en- couraging, and gave the movement a strong impetus. Dr. Conrad was appointed, and consented, to carr)- it forward by personal efibrts among the A\ealth)' men of the Church. He entered on the enterprise with his usual great enthusiasm, and worked the movement with much efficiency, and a success before unknown in the history of the College. In April, 1865. he reported to the Board of Trustees tliat. including tliose at tlie Convention, subscriptions had been secured amounting to $85,- 040,, and that the prospects were good for realizing full $100,000. This auspicious indication, however. Mas ne\er realized, and the actual receipts into the treasury failed, by far. to reach the amount indicated in the subscriptions. The whole movement, however, was still the happiest and most successtul in the histor}- of the College, and did much to strengthen and enlarge its work. It became the point of a new departure for the institution, quicken- ing it into a more vigorous and efficient life, with power of increased usefulness for all time to come. After Dr. Conrad withdrew from the ser\ice of collectinc*; — FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT. 7/ entering into a similar service on behalf of the Seminary — the work was further prosecuted through the agency of Rev. J. B. Crist. The effort of Mr. Crist extended over several years, and he labored with great perseverance and faithfulness. But circum- stances were unfavorable, and only a small addition was secured to the funds. The Pf:arson Legacy. — In 1868, the College was made the recipient of a legacy from Davis Pearson, esq., of Philadelphia, the clause of his will providing it reading as follows : " To the Pennsylvania Lutheran College at Gettysburg, Four Hundred Shares of Honeybrook Coal Company Stock, the par value ot which is Twenty Thousand Dollars, to found a Professorship that shall be called ' Pearson Professorship.'" This bequest, in the form of stock, was promptly paid over to the Board of Trustees by the executors of Mr. Pearson's will, with the desire, as they say in communicating the fact of the legacy, as soon as possible to "make available in the College and to humanity this new and generous foundation and aid for the cause of learning." The Board at once and rejoicingly es- tablished the " Pearson Professorship," constituting it for the time as the Professorship of the Greek Language and Literature. It was soon found, however, that by the mutations of the times the stock was unfortunately producing only small or no divi- dends, and had fallen considerably below the par value. The Board exerted its utmost diligence, care, and business tact, helped by the counsel of friends best qualified to advise in such transactions, to make the fund available to the fullness of its intention. But it was impossible to do this, and the Board real- ized from it finally $12,000. This was happily invested in the amount of $13,000. F"rom 1865 to 1869 the Board was occupied with the purpose and endeavor to enlarge the work of the Preparatory Depart- ment. The better condition into which the work of the college proper had been brought by the enlarged endowment, stimulated the desire to increase the patronage of the institution by the erection of a fine building for the preparing school, and a reorgan- ization of the work there. Much of the financial history of the y8 HISTORY. institution for this period is concerned with the raising of funds for the new Preparatory Building. In this effort, Rev. A. McLaugh- lin acted as agent for a short time. Appeals were sent out, but responses did not come in. Dr. S. S. Schmucker, having re- signed the position he had long held as Chairman of the Faculty of the Theological Seminary, consented to give, for a while, his services, made valuable by his experience and influence, in this special effort. Owing to various untoward circumstances, be- yond control, the results fell below the hopes of the College and the needs of the enterprise. Rev. J. F. Probst was appointed and accepted an agency in 1S70, and labored faithfully amid dis- couraging conditions for about two years. Along with the erection of the new Preparatory Hall, the Board was engaged in building the two Professors' houses, ordered in 1867, on the Campus. The failure of successful collections threw the institution into debt, which was further increased by the unfortunate failure of the contractor for the Pre- paratory Hall, resulting in liens, etc., upon the yet unfinished building. The unfortunate debt thus occurring, with the interest on it to be met annually, greatly embarrassed the finances, until, after its gradual reduction, its payment was secured through the generous and wise provision made for it in the legacy of ^20,000 in the will of IMr. Chas. A. Morris, of York. As Mr. Morris had given large contributions before, and as this legacy, by the terms which devoted it to the liquidation of the debt, was excluded from forming any endowment which would be its own memorial, it deserves the honor of conspicuous mention in this histor^^ In 1872 the "J. B. McCrear\^ Gymnasium" was put up at a cost of about $2300 — the funds for which came as a contribution from students and various friends, completed by a gift of ^$1500 from J. B. McCreary, Esq., of Philadelphia. At this time the President of the College was requested by the Board to spend part of his time in efforts among its friends and the churches for increase of funds. Prevalent financial dullness throughout the countr)', however, interfered with the hoped-for success in the work. In connection with this effort for the gen- FINANCIAL HISTORY AND ENDOWMENT, 79 eral fund, the President completed the collections he had been making for the erection of an Astronomical Observatory, which was put up in 1874-75, at a cost of about ^3,406. To invigorate the movement, in 1873 an Endowment Com- mittee of members of the Board was appointed, and a Conven- tion was arranged to be held on the i6th of September at York. The Convention met: addresses, etc., were delivered. But during the Convention the news was telegraphed all over the land of the failure of the banking-house of Jay Cooke & Co., of Philadel- phia — the startling event that marked the beginning of that dis- tressing financial depression which is still so well remembered. The effort, arrested for the time, was nevertheless resumed in 1874 by the President of the College, with the co-operation of some members of the Committee, and resulted in adding about ;^ 1 2,000 to the endowment. In 1877, the East Pennsylvania Synod, acting as Trustee for direction of a legacy of about $7,000 provided in the will of the late Mr. Stroup, of Danville, designated one-third of the amount for the endowment of the College. The condition of the legacy, however, has not yet been such as to make practicable its actual transfer into the College treasury. At the meeting of the Board, June 27, 1877, Prof. Baugher was requested to act as Financial Secretary for one year, and Mr. Harrison, who had just resigned the principalship of the Preparatory Department, was appointed as assistant Financial Secretary; to co-operate in collecting funds. Mr. Harrison con- tinued his work somewhat more than a year. After his resigna- tion, the Financial Secretaryship was filled by the appointment of Rev. M. L. Young, of the class of 1875. Mr. Young's labors have been mainly devoted to visitation of congregations and points less frequently entered or canvassed before, and with a prominent view to interesting young men as well as parents in the matter of education, and thus increasing the patronage of the institution. These recent labors have been of much service in enabling the institution to carry on its work in a period of un- usual need, and will tell in results for the treasury in coming years. Many of the contributions, mostly comparatively small, 8o uisroRv. bointx in the fl-irm of notes not yet paid, it is impossible }'et to state the aetual addition they may i^'iN-e to the endowment. At the elose of this hah" eentury's histoi)'. the endowment, be- sides the accunudated property in ground, buihlings. apparatus, eabinets. ete., is 8110,875.00. This inekides the speeial hbrary fund of 51,300. and the hbrar>- funds of the Fhrenakosmian and ?hih>math;van Societies oi' 51,457.68; also temporary notes, given bv subscribers, to the amount of 513,006. It would be a grateUd task to go through the multiplied records of the institution for the tith" years now closed, and bring into \ iew the names of the ver)' great number of contributors, with the amount gi\en l\\- each, b\- whose help the College has been furnished ^\ith its grounds, buildings, appliances, and endow- ment, and enabled to do its beneficent work and attain its present degree of strength. There has been a goodh' number of gener- ous contributions. IVunsNlvania College, indeed, has had but few to favor it with the muniticent gifts that ha\-e in recent }-ears marked the fortimate experience of various institutions. But with some larger benefictions. it has been ta\-ored with the steady help of friends whose smaller gifts ha\e tallen to its need like the continual drops of rain which cannot be counted, though full of blessing. Such a task, howexer, is impracticable, in so brief an account as this must be. Nor will the worthy contributors desire anv such display of their gifts, seeking as they have done, and do. the higher object of unselfishly serving the great cause of Christian education. Xlll. THE MEDICAL DErARTMENT. T4ie present generation of students and friends of the College are hardly aware of the tact that from 1839 to 1861 the institu- tion included a Medical Department in Philadelphia. This history must necessarily recall this fact, and brietl\- sketch the origin, progress, and close of the work done in this branch of education, and make record of the names of the chief men who bore an honorable part in it. It is to be regretted that the data w hich we ha\-e been able to obtain are exceedingly meager, and suppK- the materials for but a \ery imperfect accomit. It is not know n where the old records are, if indeed records were kept. PHOTOGRAPHED RY W. H. TIPTON, MILTON VALENTINE, President 1868. GETTYSBURG, PA. THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. 8 1 The first indication of a purpose to organize such a department appears in information given to the Board, April 19, 1837, that "a number of medical gentlemen of the city of Philadelphia, who were about establishing a new medical school in that city, desired to connect it with Pennsylvania College.". The subject was inquired into, through a committee, and it was found that the purpose had for the time been given up. It was, however, soon afterward resumed. In September, 1839, ^ communication was received from Drs. S. Colhoun, George McClellan, William Rush, and Samuel G. Morton, desiring, undjr certain conditions, to be allowed to grant medical degrees under sanction of our charter. The consideration of the whole subject led to the adoption of the resolution : " That this Board hereby establish a Medical Department in Penn.sylvania College." A Medical Faculty was at once constituted by the election of the following professors : Samuel G. Morton, M. D., Prof of Anatomy and Physiology. George McClellan, M. D., Prof of Surgery. William Rush, M. D., Prof of the Theory and Practice of Medicine. Samuel Colhoun, M. D., Prof of Materia Medica and Phar- macy. Samuel McClellan, M. D., Prof of Obstetrics and Diseases of Women and Children. These Professors were, by the Board, constituted a Committee to fill up the requisite full Faculty. Two more members were thus added, viz. : Walter R. Johnson, A. M., Prof of Chemistry and Natural Philosophy. James McClintock, M. D., Prof of Practical Anatomy. A legislative act, however, was needed to authorize the insti- tution to confer medical degrees, and we find the following, approved by Governor Porter, March 6, 1840: " Whereas, the Trustees of Pennsylvania College, at Gettys- burg, in this State, have established a Medical Faculty in the city of Philadelphia, consisting of the following persons : Geo. Mc- 6 82 HISTORY. Clcllan, Samuel G. Morton, A\'illiam Rush, Samuel Colhoun, Samuel INIcClellan, ^^'alter R.

MISCELLANKA. 9I When the Regiment was, after a few days, made up, it was put under command of Col. Jentiin<^s, and II. W. McKnight was made Adjutant of the Re^dnient. Lieut. L. M. Shiter and D. H. Yount were transferred to the Si^mal Corps ; Scrgt. G. W. Fred- erick, T. L. Seij), G. M. Helt/.hoover, and J. I). Schindel were de- tailed as clerks to Maj. Gen. Couch; and W. II. Ciotwald and A. J. Riley were detailed as clerks to Col. Beaver, commandant of Camp Curtin. This hastily-gathered regiment was ordered to Gettysburg. Of course no one as yet dreamed that this would prove the point of the meeting of the two great armies ; but being on the State border, there were general military reasons for stationing a force here. They reached Gettysburg, after some delay by a railroad accident about four miles from town, on PViday, June 26, a week before the battle. At iO>^ A. M. of that day, by order of Maj. Ilaller, Col. Jennings with his regiment was sent forward on the Chambersburg turnpike, as some Confederate force seemed to be approaching this side of the mountains. Dr. M.Jacobs, in his history of the battle, says of this movement : "Advancing to the distance of about three miles westward, our little band encamped, and threw out their pickets. About 3 P. M. the Rebels in force made their appearance, and captured nearly all their pickets, 40 in number. Col. Jennings, who had, on several occasions, shown himself to be an officer as skillful as he is cool and brave, seeing the trap into which he had been let!, immediately upon sight of the enemy divided the regiment into three squads, in order to de- ceive them with the appearance of a large body of infantry. The deception proved so far successful that the Rebels did not press them, fearing that an attack might prove more serious than a mere skirmish. Jennings' band, however, hastily retreated eastward over the fields and by country roads, occasionally skirmishing with the enemy's cavalry,* which was sent in jnirsuit of them; and after losing 120 more of their number near Hunterstown, and zigzagging very frequently, being often within hearing distance of their pursuers, they reached Harrisburg on Sunday, the 28th of *Gcn. Doubleday, in his " Chancellorviile and C;cttysl)urg," refers to this skirmish as the only serious resistance that Lee's army encountered before the battle. 92 HISTORY. June, much fatigued, having marched fifty-four out of sixty con- secutive hours." After this they remained on duty at Fort Washington, opposite Harrisburg, till the 30th of July, when their term of service ended. In the Board of Trustees, the following August 12, we find the following resolution : " That this Board have heard with proud satisfaction of the heroic conduct of those students of the College who rushed so promptly to the defence of their country during the late rebel invasion, and that their course is hereby heartily approved." After the first day's fight, and the retreat of our army to the south-east of the town, the College came into the possession of the enemy, and was used by them as a hospital. The incident of Gen. Lee's ascent to the cupola for observations, on July 3, is well known to the citizens of Gettysburg, though attempts have been made to call it in question. It is, however, abundantly established by the positive testimony of a number of witnesses, some of whom are still living. The College was filled with the wounded and those waiting on them — probably not less than 500. Many were placed in the Library, and in the halls of the Societies, as well as in the recitation rooms, chapel, and student rooms. Many blood-soaked volumes in the Library still remind of the use to which it was put. Surgeons were plying their work of amputation and dressing in the public halls and on the porches. For four weeks after the defeat and repulse of the enemy, the building was kept thus by the Government as a hospital. Many of the wounded died, and their bodies were buried on the col- leee grounds — most, if not all of which were afterward removed. Of course, though wanton destruction seems not to have been at all committed, the building was much defaced, the furniture de- stroyed, the fences, etc., swept away. The Commencement ex- ercises for the year were omitted. A regular programme, how- ever, was issued. The work of thorough cleansing and repair was begun as soon as possible, and b}- the time for the opening of the Fall Session, September 24. the College was ready for the reception of the students. August ii, 1864, Dr. Baugher, from the Committee to secure indemnity for the damage to the Col- MISCELLANEA. 93 lege, reported to the Board that $625 had been received as rent from the United States Government, and been invested as part of the permanent fund — of course, to replace the expenditure in the repairs. The Commencement exercises of 1864 (Aug. 12), were inter- fered with by another threatened invasion, which culminated in the battle of Monocacy. But two of the graduating class — Beltz- hoover and Richards — were present ; and the Baccalaureate was delivered after their orations to a meager audience. It will not be out of the way to note here an incident or two connected with an earlier period of the war. At the very out- break of the war, about the 21st of April, 1861, when Baltimore was held by those who resisted the Union troops, the report reached Gettysburg one evening that the enemy were approach- ing. The greatest consternation prevailed. The students who were spending their vacation at Gettysburg immediately volun- teered, and with others picketed the roads leading to the town. The morning relieved all apprehensions. In the spring of 1861, a military company was formed by the students : Tutor J. F. McCreary, Captain. Mason Weidman, First Lieutenant. H. W. Roth, Second Lieutenant. T. D. Renfrew, Orderly Sergeant. It drilled regularly in the field back of the College, and occa- sionally in the square in town, where it was greatly complimented for its skill in military evolutions. It participated in the review of the militia of the county in the summer of 1 86 1, by the Brig- adier-General of the district. It added to the manual a drill in leap-frog, to the astonishment and delight of all military critics, and the despair of all rivals. 9. Resident Officer, Proctor, etc. — At the desire of the Board, the President, Dr. Krauth, resided in the College from the time of its erection till his resignation in 1850, having personal supervision of its order, with the aid of the Tutors, who also lodged in the building. At the beginning of Dr. Baugher's pres- idency, Prof Stcever served as resident Professor for about two 94 HISTORY. years. Dr. Baugher then — though his home was at that time at a considerable distance from the College — assumed the duties of this relation, a relation that has since been sustained by the President down to the present time. The service of the Tutors as officers of the building continued until 1873, when the work of the Preparatory Department required the residence of the Tutors there. This introduced the appointment of Proctors for the College. The list of Proctors from that date is as follows : D. T. Koser, A. B., 1 873-1 874. J. L. A. Burrell, A. B., 1874-1875. J. B. P'ocht, A. B., 1 875-1 876. M. L. Young, A. B., 1 876-1 878. H. Max. Lentz, A. B., 1 878-1 880. M. F. Troxell, A. B., 1 880-1 882. THE BEGINNINGS OF THE COLLEGE. BY B. M. SCHMUCKER, D. D. The earliest efforts to secure collegiate training for students in preparation for the Lutheran ministry were made in connection with what is now the well developed University of Pennsylvania. From the beginning, eminent Lutherans have been found among its professors, and even now there are nearly as many in the Faculty of Science and Arts as in any Lutheran College. When Dickinson College was established in 1783, an effort was made to unite Lutheran interests with it. Revs. Nicholas Kurtz, Pres- ident, Emanuel Schulze, Secretary of the Ministerium, and Dr. Henry E. Muhlenberg, were made Trustees, and the Board applied to the Ministerium in 1784 for its co-operation and con- tributions. The effort failed of result, and was soon abandoned. Franklin College, established 1787 in the interest of the Luth- erans and Reformed, although several efforts were made to infuse life into it, failed to be of much service until the attempted union was abandoned, and its funds were divided and given to distinctive institutions. The movements which resulted in the establishment of Penn- sylvania College arose out of the necessities of the Theological Seminary opened at Gettysburg Sept. 5, 1826. There was no classical and scientific school at Gettysburg which could furnish even the most moderate preparatory training for its students, and there were few such schools within the territory from which they came. The Directors of the Seminary, deeply sensible of the wants of the students and of the whole Lutheran population they rep- resented, at their second meeting, May 16, 1827, resolved to establish a preparatory school, and appointed Prof * S. S. Schmucker, then sole Seminary Professor, and Rev. J. Herbst, to select a teacher and open the school. The teacher chosen was David Jacobs, A. M., then a student in the Seminary. The school was opened June 25, 1827, in the Adams County (95) 96 HISTORY. Academy. The Academ}- had been erected by means of an appropriation of $2,000 made b}- the Legislature in 1810, and contained four large rooms, two of which were used by the Seqj- inary. In 1829 a Scientific Department was added, and INIichael Jacobs, A. M., was placed in charge. The course of study in the " Gettysburg Acadenn- " was arranged for five }-ears, begin- ning with the study of the Latin and Greek languages, its third year being nearly parallel with the Freshman year of the College course. In September, 1829, the Adams county Academy was sold by the sheriff, and purchased by Rev. S. S. Schmucker for $1,150, the amount of its incumbrances. An agreement was made by the purchaser that it should be used for educational purposes, and not sold for other uses without gi\'ing to the citizens an opportunity of redeeming it at cost. Thus no other bid was made. Prof Schmucker proposed to enlarge the interest in the Institution, and engage the influence of many Lutheran clergy- men, by forming "An Association for the establishment of a Class- ical and Scientific Department in subser\-ience to the objects of the Theological Seminaiy at Gettysburg, and for the purchase of the Adams County Acadeni}-." Articles to this effect were drawn up — the original stock to be Si, 100. each share $50, five Trustees to manage its affairs, the Professors and Directors of the Theological Seminar}^ to be a School Committee, Avho should appoint all teachers, prescribe the course of study, direct disci- pline, but in an}- case of need the Seminary Professors could act alone. The children of original stockholders were to be taught gratuitously. The institution passed under the care of these stockholders, and was named " The Gett_\-sburg Gymnasium." The stockholders were all Lutheran clerg\-men, and their names should not be forgotten : S. S. Schmucker, Jno. Herbst, H. G. Stecher, J. G. Schmucker. C. F. He}-er, Jno. Ruthrauflf, Jac. Crig- ler, Eman. Keller. Jacob Martin, J. W. Heim, Benj. Kurtz, David F. Schaefter, Jno. G. Morris, Abr. Reck, Dr. Fr. Schaeffer, Mich. Meyerhoeffer. Jacob Medtart, Lew. Eichelberger, and at a later date, C. Phil. Krauth, W. G. Ernst, Dan. Gottwald, and Chas F. Schaeffer. The first meeting of the stockholders was held Mav .ra Kel- ler, of Md., and O. O. McClean, of Pa. The rest of the students with Prof Jacobs withdrew, and organized the Philomath^ean Society. Prof Marsden presided over the Phrenakosmians. The result of the meeting was the appointment of a committee, consi.sting of Messrs. Jenkins, Barnitz, and Bacon,* to draft a Constitution, with instructions to report in two weeks. Among the founders were no less than four who subsequently became College Presidents, to which was added before the expiration of the year a fifth, in Dr. Theophilus Stork. Two weeks later, Friday evening, February i8th, at 6]4 o'clock, the second meeting was held, at which the Con.stitution was adopted, and the following officers were elected : J. C. Hope, Archon ; J. Hoover, P^parch ; D. G. Barnitz, Grammateus. The initiation fee was fixed at fifty cents. Fines ranged from six and a fourth to fifty cents. P>iday evening, at 6.30 in winter and 7 o'clock in summer, was designated as the hour for meeting. A written application for active membership was necessary, which had to be laid over for a week before action could be .taken. Performances were required of the members every three weeks. The Archon was required to read an essay on taking the chair, and to make an original oration on leaving it. The term of an administration was fixed at six regular meetings. At the same meeting, Messrs. Babb, Hoover and Fggers were * Mr. Bacon's name must have been included upon a presumption that he would unite at once with the Society. lie deferred this, however, until July 29th, 1831. I02 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. appointed a committee to confer with a similar committee of the Philomathajan Society (Springer, Oswald. Sr., and Oswald, Jr.,) concerning- Articles of Confederation between the two societies. These articles were adopted IMarch 4th. Each society pledged itself to admit no one as a member until he had been six weeks a member of tlie institution, \\liene\-er the number of members in either societ\- would stand in the proportion of two to one, the door of tlie larger body was to be closed to all applicants for membership, until the difference was half made up. Honorary membership in tlie one societ}- precluded the same relation to tlie otlier. with the exception of members of the Faculty, who were eligible to simultaneous membership in both bodies. Other articles specify measures wliereb}- each societ}- was to aid tlie other in enforcing secrec}- upon its members. The}- remained in force only until 1833. when the}- were annulled b}- the Philoma- thseans. TheFaculty in 1835 passed an or dinance defining the relations of the two societies, which was appro\-ed b}- the Phrena- kosmians in these words : " That while we disclaim all right on the part of the Faculty of this College to legislate for our societ}-. yet considering that the laws drafted b}- them will tend to promote peace and harmony between the two societies, we incorporate them in our Consti- tution." Vers- soon, too, the first Constitution was found to be unsatis- tactory. and accordingl}-. Jul}- 29th, 1831, a committee consisting of Messrs. Hope. Hoover, Harkey. Keller and Davis, reported a revision, which was adopted. It reduced the number of officers to two. an Arclion and a Grammateus. November I5tli, 1832, Messrs. Bo}-er, Bittle and Stork reported a new Constitution, which was destined to have a still shorter term of life, as February ist, 1833. still anotlier Constitution, prepared by [Messrs. Bacon, Dale and ^IcClean, was adopted after some amendments. Februar}- 9th. 1853, another Constitution, reported bv a com- mittee of which L. R. Baugher was chairman, was adopted, which gave place to another. P^ebruar}- 5th. 1862. prepared by a com- mittee of which C. V. S. Le\-\-was chairman. THE PHRENAKOSMIAN SOCIETY. IO3 PLACE AND TIME OF MEETING. The meetings were held originally in the recitation-rooms of the old Academy Building on High Street. After the present building was occupied, a room on the north side of the second floor was occupied for two years. August 2d, 1839, the present hall was dedicated, with prayer by Dr. Baugher and an address by President Krauth. Friday evening was for some years the time designated by the Constitution. In 1840, the present custom of meeting on Wednes- day afternoons was adopted. HONORARY MEMBERS. February 25th, 1831, " it was resolved that Mr. M. Jacobs and Rev. J. Marsden be appointed honorary members for life." April 15th, 183 1, " Profs. Schmucker and Hazelius, together with Rev. H. L. Baugher, were admitted" to the same rank, and thus a long series began, in which Phrena sought to excel Philo in the num- ber of prominent men enrolled. Another class of honorary members was established in Sep- tember, 1 83 1, by a resolution to include all members of the Society in good standing, after their departure from the Institution., LIBRARY. The Library was founded by a resolution of April 15th, 1831, " Harper's Library" being purchased as the nucleus. At various times during the early years of the society, earnest efforts were made by the members during the vacations, to obtain volumes. As a stimulus to exertion, valuable prizes were offered to those securing the largest number. The small room assigned to the Library after the removal of the Institution to the present build- ing, was enlarged, frescoed and refitted in 1859. The hall was at the same time frescoed. In 1861-1862 the books were re- arranged, and kept in the places they still occupy by the adoption of the steel-plate label. The committee in charge attempted also to prepare minute catalogues to facilitate reference; but the work was too great, and the plan fell through under their successors, who did not understand the plan originally intended. Gradually, as the result of eftbrts covering twenty-five years or I04 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. more, the soeiety has accumulated a fund, invested with the Treasurer of the College, the interest of which is spent in the purchase of books. A standing committee has charge of eftbrts for its increase. October 30th, 1867, Mr. Manges moved that a committee be appointed to consider the expediency of providing a reading- room. The project met the approval of the Society, and the reading-room was opened by the beginning of the next session. The periodicals subscribed for are designated by a \'ote of the Society. A number are furnished gratuitously. SOCIETY DESIGNATIONS. February' i8th, 1833, it was "resolved that we wear a small blue badge at our celebration." February 2d, 1842, " Mr. Harri- son mo\^ed that hereafter we Avear as a badge a blue ribbon." This was a few weeks later changed to pink, but in 1843 the blue again prevailed. About 1854 a plain gold ]\Ialtese cross, with pen and sword crossed, and an inscription of the initials of the society motto, K. T. (?., and date 1 831, surrounded by a wreath, was adopted as the society pin. The design was changed somewhat a ifew years later, being reduced in size, the center forming a ground of blue enamel. In 1 861 an engraved envelope was procured, which for awhile AA'^s generall}' used for the correspondence of active Phrenakos- mians. PUBLIC EXERCISES. Anniversary Exercises were first held in 1832, although the first record in the Minutes is February 22d, 1833. The plan adopted provided for addresses from two honorary and one active member. Owing to the declination of one of the honorar}^ members elected, there were but two speakers, Hon. James Cooper and Mr. D. G. Barnitz. The time was changed to the Friday before Februar}* 22d, the second Friday in March, April 1st, and perhaps to other dates. For over twent}- }-ears they were almost entireh- omitted, but since 1868 have been held every alternate year, on February 22d. In September, 1855 THE PHRENAKOSMIAN SOCIETY. IO5 (V/ednesday morning of Commencement Week), a celebration was held of similar character. The performances now consist of original speeches. In April, 1833, at the close of the winter session, the first con- test with the Philomathaean Society took place, participated in by a speaker, essayist, and debater from both bodies. These con- tests were held regularly until 1849. Since then they have been omitted, except in 1868, when a contest was held in Agricultural Hall, on December 22d. After the occupation of the new hall, it was resolved to cele- brate the anniversary of its dedication, and in 1840, Mr. P. Wil- lard, of the Seminary, was elected the first orator. The first public address before the two Societies was delivered July 4th, 1838, by Rev. C. G. McLean, of Gettysburg, the second in 1838, by James C. Biddle, Esq., of Philadelphia. The time was afterwards changed to the Wednesday before Commence- ment. The two Societies have frequently united in the arrange- ments. Occasionally each has had its own speaker on the same day, explicable generally by some failure the preceding year. The custom prevalent for the last seventeen years is for the Societies to alternate, so that each has regularly a biennial address. The Phrenakosmian Society entered into a joint arrangement with the Philomathaiian Society, whereby courses of popular lec- tures were delivered in Gettysburg during the winters of 1867—8, and 1869-70. In June, 1876, Gen. J. Watts DePeyster, of New York, one of the most interested and valuable honorary members, offered the society a costly gold Phrenakosmian badge set with diamonds, to be awarded to the member who would compose the best oration on the Battle of Gettysburg. J. Bion Scott of 'jy was the success- ful competitor, and delivered the oration in Christ Church, 1877. LITERARY LEAGUE. During the winter of 1862-63 the Society became a member of a league of College Literary Societies, that had its center in the University of Pennsylvania. Interest in it soon decreased, and little is read of it in the minutes. I06 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. PUBLICATIONS. The society has published two catalogues, one in 1846 and another in 1853. Were one to be issued now, it would record 1062 names of those who are or have been active members. PRESIDENTS. 1 83 1. — I. J. C. Hope. 2. L. G. Eggers. 3. J. C. Hope. 4. J B. Davis. 5. S. W.

ORGANIZATION. iMoro than a \car before the eharter of Penns^-lvania College was granted b>- the Legishiture of the State, the Philomathitan Society haxi its organization, in the " Gettysburg" Gymnasium." on the corner of \\'ashington and High streets. Gett\"sburg. Pa. The students of the institution assembled in the west room of die second ston-, on the 4th of Februar)-. A. D. 1S31. to form literary societies ^\■hose generous ri\alr\" would stimulate the members to mutual intellectual and moral impro\ement. It was agreed to di\-ide the whole ninnber of students into two equal parts, in the order in -which their names stood enrolled, each division to form an association. The latter di\ision then witli- drew to the " East Room." second stor)-, becoming the founders of the Philomathaian Society, witli Prof. J\I. Jacobs as chairman. With the permission of tlie Professors of Theology, the meetings continued to be held in the room dex'oted to theological instruc- tion, the corner-stone of the Theological Seminar)* not being laid until the following ]\Ia)'. A Constitution and a name were adopted, but the latter was not at fii-st settled in its orthography, for the ditterent secretaries give " Philomathian.'" " Philomatheon" and " Philomathean" as the name before the present Philomatha;an becmne confirmed. The signification of the name, " lovers of learning." implies tlie object of the organization, " to create and cherish a taste for learning, and to promote sentiments of mutual regard and friend- ship;" or. as afterwards modified, "to cultivate and difTuse among its members liberal principles, and to promote the great objects of social, moral, and intellectual improvement." The Constitution provides for tlie election of all officers, for tlie admission and the dismissal of members, for fines and penal- ties, for meetings and work, for the formation and use of a librar)' ; and it emphasizes the requirement of each member to hold inviolable his duty to preserve a proper secrecy of tlie affairs of the societ\'.

Tabler, Abraham B. Shuman, Daniel Miller, Samuel Russell, John Ulrich, J'^-ancis Sprinj^er, George Schmucker, Wil- liam A. Wadsworth, Peter Sahm, William Menni-^-, Solomon Ritz, Walter J. Sloan, and William Metzger. One other founder would have appeared with the above, mak- in<^ seventeen names to the ei<^htcen of the other society, as equal a division as could have been made; but as he persistently refused to attend the meetini^s, he was declared by the society " dis- missed." Of these ori<^inal members but two became t^raduates of the CoIlei,rc, Abraham B. Shuman and Rev. Wm. A. W^ads worth ; and three are living, a half century after the organization. Rev. W'm. Mennig, Rev. W. J. Sloan, and Rev. Dr. J<"rancis Springer. Three received the honorary degree of Master of Arts from Alma Mater in later years. Rev. Daniel Miller, J^Van- cis Springer, D. D., and Rev. John Ulrich. The first to pass the trying ordeal of the initiatory rites, as at first adopted in receiv- ing new members, were Wm. W. McClellan, of Baltimore, and Lewis Routzahn, of Frederick, Md. Then, as recorded in their own signatures, on a single page of the original book of the constitution, come sucJi names of the living as Samuel Sprecher, D. D., LL. D., James Macfarlane, Ph. D., C. Porterfield Krauth, D. D., LL. D., David A. Buehler, esq., (ieorge Diehl, D D., Wm. M. Paxton, D. D., and others, whose names are familiar as far as the College is known ; but the list of the deceased on the same page far outnumbers that of the living, and contains names not unknown to literature and the professions. HONORARY MEMI?ERSHn\ Besides the active members, it was early determined that a class of honorary members should be elected, and the Professors of the Theological Department of the institution were first pro- po.sed to be thus admitted. However, it was found that the Con- stitution had no article providing for the recognition or introduc- tion of such a class, and already we meet with one of the various revisions to which the Constitution has been subjected in the I 14 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. history of the society. Drs. Schmucker and Hazelius had, there- fore, to be withdrawn from nomination until the way of admission was prepared. Before the expiration of a year, however, full compensation was made for the delay in admitting the first of the honorar}' members ; for we find not only the Professors of the several departments enrolled, but apparently all the students of theology, and a number of the prominent citizens of Gettysburg. Thirty-one were elected at one time after this, among whom ap- pear the names of Rev. Drs. Kurtz, Morris, Schaeffer of Frederick, Schaeffer of Carlisle, Lochman, and others, and with them such national names as Clay, Webster, Jackson, and Chief Justice Mar- shall. The list has grown to be many hundreds, and includes representative men of the professions and various walks of life. A Latin formula was adopted in 1843 for notifying honorary members of election, but it was little used. ■ MUTUAL REGULATIONS OF THE SOCIETIES. After the societies had settled down to their literaiy work, some agreement in the election of active and honorary members was deemed desirable, and "Articles of Confederacy," as they were called, were prepared. These mutual regulations prohibited either society from admitting any member until he had been in the institution for six weeks. Afterwards, under the College char- ter, admission was allowed immediately after matriculation. To prevent either society from too far outnumbering the other, a limit to membership was fixed at two to one. A society having attained this limit was obliged to close its doors " until the weaker had received as man}- members as half the difference between the societies." This arrangement became the source of considerable contention whenever a resort to it became imminent, and man}^ were the evasions and subterfuges to escape its application; so that as early as 1833 there was an attempt to " make anew the articles of confederation," which had grown to be unsatisfactory to both societies. This could not have been successful, as, on the 25th of Februar}^, 1835, the Facult}- of the College interposed their kindly offices, defining the limit of age for admission, proper subjects for election, and allowable excess in membership. After THE PHILOMATH/KAN SOCIETY. II5 various modifications of the limit of excess, in 1836 tlic Faculty declared "any admissions causing an excess greater than one- third to be irregular," and required the Philomatha,'an Society to rescind their action in introducing a student in contravention of this regulation. The society memorialized the Board of Trustees of the College on the subject, but the rule remained unchanged. Again, in 1846, a new set of mutual regulations was adopted, in which the societies voluntarily arranged all matters pertaining to membership, active and honorary, public celebrations, and other joint interests; but, after a lapse of about ten years, they fell into neglect and became a dead letter on the statute-books of both parties. The same person was not eligible to honorary membership in both Societies, except the Professors in the Institution. ADMIS.SIONS AND DISMISSALS. If the ceremonies of initiation did seem formidable to the ma- triculates, the number entering proves that it did not deter many, for thirteen new names were enrolled the first year, almost doub- ling the original number ; the following year added twenty-two to the growing list, and an average of twenty-two to twenty-three accessions annually has been maintained to the present period. To every honorably dismissed member who left the College without the institution's diploma, a certificate was given during the earlier years of the society, which testimonial was an evi- dence of good character at the time of his departure. A medal for this purpose was once approved, but never executed. The diploma of the society, an evidence of honorable dismission to a graduate, implied good character as well as the completion of the prescribed course of collegiate study, and could have been claimed by an average of seven annually in the past history of the society. When, however, any member wished to sever his connection with the society without just cause, or neglected duty and disregarded the authority and penalties of the society, a certain sternness even characterized the latter in its dealing with the offender. The conversion of the society into a court, and the trials of the cases presented for discipline, will recall to Il6 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. many a member the excited interest and the protracted sessions occasioned while the jury, the society, was reaching its verdict. EARLY INCIDENTS. One of the first peciiHarities was the appointment of a " Room- keeper," taken in alphabetical order, to make all arrangements necessary for holding the next meeting. He seems to have been keeper of the door, introducing any new or honorary member, but, in connection with this more dignified function, he was also " hewer of wood and drawer of water," polisher of lamps, and factotum in general. This office was abandoned in the new col- lege building, when a janitor became necessary on account of the increased work in hall, library and reading-room, and when the funds of the society allowed a consideration for services required. The meetings were first held on Friday evening, and, as lamps were a necessity, with the order for their purchase was joined that of a "jug," or "bottle," for the use of the society. Now this bottle is evidently not the decanter held in bad repute, nor is the jug the famous "little brown jug," celebrated by" the stu- dents in later years in their rollicking glee; for the society was strongly in favor of total abstinence, as the votes on all temper- ance debates proved. As an illustration of the small beginnings of a library, there is an account of the purchase of a " suitable desk, or covert, for the use of the Secretar}', librar}', lamps," etc. Some later Secretar}- has changed the v of covert into b, making it " cobert," having doubtless in mind the old family cupboard at home. From the day when a single desk or closet would accommodate not onl}- the librar}-, but the articles of the Secretary and the Janitor be- sides, to the present, when even the present librar}^ room has be- come too cramped to display all the \'olumes to ad\-antage, an earnest of what may be expected in another half centur}" is ex- hibited. Another illustration of small beginnings was the original initiation fee of fift}- cents, which rose to two dollars and a half when the college obtained its charter, and not long after to five dollars, at which figure it has since remained. The first original declamation, by one of the still surviving THE PIIILOMATH/EAN SOCIETY. II7 founders, by permission of the society, was in the German lan- guage. From the first the debate took high rank, and seemed to claim the highest interest of the members. The subjects chosen often bore directly upon their personal relations, and the first was upon their call or right to existence as a society. Then the question of social visiting, the granting of diplomas for par- tial or special courses of study, and other like topics, were dis- cussed, as well as the questions of public interest in their day. ANNIVERSARIES AND PUBLIC CONTE.STS. The first anniversary celebration was held I'ebruary 17, 1832, and the speeches were made by two of the founders.^ At the first these exercises were held in the Gymnasium building, and invitations were sent to such persons as were supposed to appre- ciate literary entertainments. It may seem somewhat primitive at the present day to learn that " a few verses" were sung between the speeches, instead of the classical instrumental music furnished at later entertainments. Another novelty was the " privilege given to those present of making any remarks to society that might be thought proper." Afterwards the exercises were held in the German church, until 1835, when they v/ere transferred for a couple of years to the Presbyterian church, in consequence of objection being made to the introduction of instrumental music into the church. After 1836 the public exercises were held in Christ (College) Church, then completed. In connection with the Spring Examinations, by request of the Professors, each society appointed an essayist, an orator, and a debater, as performers at the closing exercises of the session. The exercises were to be original, and each society was to "chal- lenge" the other alternately to select the subject of debate. Thus originated the annual " contests," which grew^ in interest from year to year until 1849, when a dispute with the church officers brought all public exercises of the societies to a close for several years. The customary fees for the sexton and other incidentals were asked for in advance, by a regulation of the church officers, in consequence of the difficulty of collecting them after the interest of the occasion had passed and the officers of the societies Il8 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. had been changed. This action being misapprehended as a charge for the use of the church, which was free to exercises under the direction of the Faculty, or as a reflection upon the integrity of the societies, was resisted. Not satisfied with the explanation that the sum assessed merely covered the expenses incident to the opening of the church, the societies memorialized the Board of Trustees on the question, who replied that the demand was not unreasonable ; and thus ended the dispute and the contests at the same time. At the time of the earlier Anniversaries, an Honorary Member was elected to deliver an address. From 1836 to 1853 an address was deli\'ered each year before the societies jointly. From this time there have been annual and biennial addresses, the societies usually alternating in the choice. Below are given the speakers on these various occasions. REMOVAL OF THE SOCIETV. The quarters at first chosen continued to be used by the societ}' until the present College building was erected. The fourth story, in which the hall and library were to be situated, was not finished during the first year's occupancy of the College, and the society was compelled to conduct its exercises in the second story, under many disadvantages. In consequence of this a movement was made to re-occup\' the room in the old Academy building, or seek temporary shelter elsewhere. The Faculty urged the societ}' to remain in the College edifice during the summer of 1838, until the completion of the fourth story; and afterwards, in 1840. gave \\'ednesda)' afternoon, instead of Friday night, as the time of holding the regular sessions. The hall at the east end of the fourth story, assigned to the Philomathaeans, was neatly carpeted and papered ; bronze busts of Washington and Franklin adorned the President's stand ; and other necessary and suitable furniture was supplied. In the spirit of improvement and ri\'alr\-, however, in the }'ear 185 1, the papering gave wa}^ to frescoing and the plain carpet to Brussels tapestr}^ Again, in 1868, a complete renovation of the hall was made, but this was rendered necessary to a certain extent by the THE PHILOMATHyKAN SOCIETY. I I9 damage which had been done, after the battle of Gettysburg, by the wounded of General Lee's army, many of whom lodged in the hall and injured the walls with blood and other stains. THE LIBRARY AND LIBRARY EUNI). What books were first placed in the Library cannot now be told, but some volumes must have been gathered at the very organization, as the books were given out at the close of each regular meeting, and fines imposed for not returning them in the allotted time. All money remaining, after defraying necessary expenses, was to be appropriated to the library, and on January 27, 1832, is recorded the first purchase of books, " Buffon's Nat- ural History." Members pledged themselves to gather books during vacations, and subscription papers, prepared by the society itself, were used for that purpose. Several thousand volumes in this way were brought together, and more than $100 annually expended from the revenues of the treasury for books of standard value. From 1853 to 1865 a permanent library fund of $\,QOO was secured by the exertions of active and honorary members, which is deposited with the College Treasurer, and yielding interest to be expended yearly in choice books. Besides this first thousand dollars, a portion of a second thou.sand has been raised and added to the former. Rev. S. S. Henry was for a time the agent of the society in com- pleting the original fund. The original book-shelves of the Academy yielded, in 1838, to the librar>^-room assigned by the institution in the new College building. In 1853 application was made for additional accom- modations, and soon a room was added, doubling the space, which was still further increased in 1880 by the addition of another room eastward. This is handsomely furnished, and nearly filled with the 6,500 volumes now in catalogue. READING ROOM. In addition to the books of the Library, the current literature of the day was a desideratum to thc^ Society, and in 1861 a Philo. Reading-room was established on the first story, north-east cor- ner, of the College building. The room is well furnished and 120 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. supplied with prominent daily papers, monthly magazines, and other periodicals of \-aIue, to \\hich the members ha\-e access at all times except stud}- hours. THE " FHILO-UXION." As a matter of histor}", the connection of this society, between 185 J and 1835, with an organization or union of the different literary societies of \arious colleges bearing the prae-nomen of Philo, and known as the " Philo-Union," must not be omitted. It originated at Shelby College, Ken., and enrolled Philo. Societies of more than a score of colleges, extending from New Phigland to the West. iMembership in any one of these societies secured admission to all the others, and a general plan of simultaneous anni\-orsaries was proposed. The fraternal relations of the bro- therhood were to be cultivated and the general interests to be promoted by a periodical established at some central institution ; but the dithculties of practical co-operation and the excessive labor of correspondence made the Union of short duration, and a second generation of students scarcely learned of its existence. .\FPLICATIOX FOR A CHARTER. At se\-eral periods in the histor}- of the society, the subject of obtaining a Charter from the County Court, or the State Legis- lature, was full}- discussed. After a portion of tlie ^1,000 fund had been collected, it w-as thought necessar}^ to have a charter, in order to secure mone}'s loaned. Legal ad\-ice was taken on the subject and the Facult}- notified of the application. The}^ thought tliat " the incoiporation of either of the literary societies might pro\-e detrimental to the Interests of the College, producing un- pleasant conflict in the institution." Later, when the fund for the librar}- was full}- secured, the desire to become a corporate body ag-ain found expression ; but the doubt whether a chartered bod}- could exist within a chartered corporation, a " wheel within a wheel," as it was called, induced the societ}- to abandon the ap- plication. BADGES AND OTHER PARAPHERNALIA. In adopting distinguishing badges for public occasions, the Philomatlia^ans chose the white ribbon. Various forms from THE rillLOMA'l'ir.-ICAN SOCIETV. 121 time to time prevailed, now the rosette, circular or oval, then the plain ribbon. At another time the name " Philomathacan" was stamped on the satin, and all members were required to wear the emblem. The Marshal, who conducts the procession, wears a white sash, or regalia, with a corresponding " baton." In addition to these decorations a badi^e-pin was adopted in 1854, in the form of a scroll with the word " Philo" engraved upon it, and the year of organization, " ie selection of members. F. Klinefelter writes, January 22, 1862: "Within the last six months enough candi- dates have been black-balled to make a good-sized chapter." Great caution has lost the chapter some good men, yet the strictest care was necessary to keep the ranks filled with the best material. The war interfered with the chapter's work — correspondence with sister chapters was interrupted and some of the members entered the army. February 9, 1863, there were in the army, of Xi"s number, a major, three captains, an assistant surgeon and two privates, so that the Deltas of Pennsyhania College were well represented among those defending the Union. But, despite adverse circumstances, the chapter flourished; in '6t,, besides graduates in Seminary and town and the tutor in College, there were'* eleven members from the College classes. The resident graduates ha\"e always manifested a deep interest in the chapter, and its uniform high character is due in no slight degree to their presence and cooperation. For a number of years the chapter had no hall, but met in College rooms or at the houses of members li\-ing" in town. In 1865 a hall was rented and furnished; at the dedication, Nov. 7th, J. Harvey White and J. A. Beeber delivered addresses, and G. P. Rowe read an essay. This hall was not retained more than three XI CHAPTER OF PHI GAMMA DELTA. 1 3/ years. The hall in which the chapter now meets was dedicated June 28, '76, on which occasion P. C. Croll dehvered the address of welcome, J. S. Lewars responded, and W. L. Seabrook made the dedicatory address. There was some difficulty in determining the character of the literary exercises. At first the only regular performance was the reading of an essay; prominent among the early literary recrea- tions were the " Pipe P'ancies " of M. H. Richards, which deserv- edly achieved a great popularity. Changes were made from time to time until a satisfactory system was perfected, and now the literary exercises are a prominent feature of the chapter's work, embracing, also, opportunities for improvement in directions not afforded by the regular College course. There are 122 names on the list of graduate and active mem- bers ; one is a College president, thirty arc ministers of the Go.spel, fifteen attorneys-at-law, thirteen physicians, seven have served as professors in various colleges, and eleven as tutors in Alma Mater; twelve are deceased, four of whom — George, McMillan, Friday and A. Y. Shindel — met tragic ends. The first was a suicide, the second was burnt in a train of cars while on his way to Gettysburg, the third was murdered, and the fourth, one of the noblest and most promising of our number, was drowned while bravely attempting to save a sinking comrade. Sixty-four of the members are graduates of the College. Of these, thirty-five received College honors ; nine were valedicto- rians and twelve salutatorians ; nine were awarded first honor; eleven have taken the Freshman prize, seven the Hassler Latin Medal, and five the Graeff English prize. Xi has been instrumental in establishing five other chapters ; the first of these was Beta Deuteron, at Roanoke College ; the second, Epsilon Deuteron, at Muhlenberg College, and the third. Phi, at the University of Maryland ; the other chapters have been instituted through the efforts of W. E. Stabler and H. L. Stabler.

P. Mikesell, '64; Rev. T. C. Blll- heimer, '65; Prof. P. M. Bikle and Rev. H. L. Zeigeiifuss, '66. The initiation ceremonies were performed by four or five mem- bers of Omicron Chapter, located at Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa. To S. P. Mikesell presumably belongs the honor of having started the idea of petitioning for a Sigma Chi charter. At the time of the founding of the chapter, there were three other Greek letter societies at Pennsylvania College. Phi Kappa Psi, founded in 1855, Phi Gamma Delta in 1858, and Zeta Psi in 1861. On its establishment, Theta found itself confronted by these three rivals. No whit dismayed, the charter members went to work, and on the anniversary of the organizing of the chapter' April 3d, 1864, nine men answered to roll-call. This anniversary of its birthday was celebrated in a becoming manner, and found the chapter in good condition, fully acknowledged and respected, if not loved, by its rivals. From that time to the present the course of the chapter has been one of the usual kind ; no start- ling occurrences have broken the calm monotony of its life. It has had its ups and downs, its successes and defeats ; learning, and we hope faithfully, the wholesome lessons of experience. Seldom has the number of active members risen above ten or twelve: at one time during the life of Theta (in the first session of 1869-70,) the chapter was represented by one member — A. S. Kemp, '71. He stuck by the chapter, and other members returning after a brief absence, soon had Theta in working order once more. Of other similar experiences we need not speak, preferring to let the past be past; only saying that in h\\\. fnu, very few instances, has Theta been compelled to have recourse to that most painful necessity — expulsion. Early in the history of the chapter, the need of a hall for meet- ing purposes was sadly felt. Several times was the idea broached, and several attempts were made to secure a suitable room, all of which proved unsuccessful. It remained for a later generation of Sigma Chis to perform this obvious duty. Meanwhile the meet- ings were held at various rooms in town and College. It was not until 1877 that the present hall, occupied by Theta, was secured and furnished. T. C. Linn, Salisbury, N. C, class of '81, was the 140 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. first member initiated in this hall, on March 23d, 1877. On Jan- uary 31st, 1874, a proposition was made by M. B. Hartzell, '74, (Sigma Chi) to take into full membership the members of the Theta Chapter of the Upsilon Beta Fraternity. A word as to this society. The founding and existence of this particular chap- ter is involved in doubt. We endeavored to secure data as to the founding of the fraternity, but were unable to do so. It, at one time, possessed chapters elsewhere in Pennsylvania, and in other states, but these were gradually absorbed and passed from sight. The Pennsylvania College chapter, as far as we could discover, had initiated but eighteen men, and at the time of absorption by Sigma Chi, was composed of but eight active members. The before-mentioned proposition, of uniting the two Theta Chapters of Sigma Chi and Upsilon Beta, after some de- bate, was accepted, and February 3d, 1874, witnessed the initi- ation of these men into Sigm.a Chi. It is but just to them to say that they took up the work eagerly, and soon became as active as any full-fledged Sigma Chis. This action created no little comment, of course, but we believe the step to have been a good one. On May 24, 1877, the Annual State Convention of the Penn- sylvania chapters, was held at Gettysburg, under the auspices of Theta, and was attended by representatives from the various chapters in the State. The Thirteenth Biennial Convention of the fraternity, held in Washington, D. C, in November, 1880, decided on the establish- ment of a bi-monthly magazine, to be the official organ of the fraternit}-, and gave the editing of the journal to Theta chapter. Some surprise was expressed at this action of the convention, as Theta is by no means the oldest, and does not consider itself the most influential chapter. However, the Avork was undertaken, with the assurance that the chapter would be supported by the fraternity. The result shows how the promise has been kept. C. R. Trowbridge, '82, was elected editor-in-chief, and W. L. McPherson, '83, business manager. Theta's delegate to the thirteenth convention was Jno. Fahnestock, '79. A. S. Kemp, '71, and Dr. G. N. Acker, '72, were chosen President and \''ice- PHI DELTA THETA. I4I President, respectively. At the convention of '78, held in Indian- apolis, Ind., A. S. Kemp was Theta's delegate, and was chosen Assistant Recording Secretary. At other conventions a delegate from Theta has generally been present, but few having been missed. April 3d of the present year was Theta's nineteenth birthday. The past has been a happy one, and the future is still as full of possibilities for pleasure and success. Since its establishment, Theta has initiated eighty-nine men, many of whom are prosper- ing, and filling places of honor and trust. Of these eighty-nine, the ministry claims fourteen ; law possibly as many, if not more ; medicine some dozen or so; while the rest are scattered far and wide over the States, engaged in the various pursuits of life. To them all, we can only say " God speed," and hope they may be as true knights in the battle of life, as they were of the " white cross." We glance down our roll, and find the black mark, signifying dead, opposite only a few of our names — William Sturgis, '68, of Fort Wayne, Ind.; Henry Woodward, '71, Reading, Pa.; David A. Horner, '76, Gettysburg, Pa. All of them were young men, comparatively, and just entering on what promised to be a happy and successful life, but they were called away from their work. PHI DELTA THETA. BY REV. HOLMES DYSINGER. The society of Pennsylvania College, known by the title of the " Phi Delta Theta Fraternity," is one of the chapters of a secret organization of the same name, located at fifty of the best Col- leges in the United States. The original chapter was organized in "Miami University," Oxford, Ohio, 1848. Previous to the civil war it extended mainly toward the South and West; but during the continuance of that strife, the Southern chapters were destroyed, and many of the West in a state of decline. Since that time, however, most of these chapters have been revived or re- newed, and many new ones have been organized, reaching as far to the East as the "University of Vermont." 14^ COLLEGE SOCIETIES. The lull title of the chapter located at Penas}-lvania College is the " Pennsylvania Beta of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity." It was organized May 5th. 1875, with a membership of ten. Among its charter members were Revs. S. E. Smith, O. H. Meleher, J. C. ■ Jacoby. H. ]\Iax Lentz, Albert Bell, and Mr. C. J. Reddig. The earl)" progress of the chapter was slo\\-, and much retarded b}" en\-ious foes without and faithless friends within, by the inex- perience and inacti\it}- of its members, and by other circum- stances which pre\"ent rapid growth and prominence among long-established and strong ri\-als. But all these difficulties were overcome in a comparati\-ely short time by a strict adherence to the principles of the Order ; and its condition now compares favorabl}- in ex'ery wa)" with any of the much older societies of the same class. The aim of the fraternit}* is the moral, intellectual and social cultivation of its members ; and for the accomplishment of these ends they are bound to secrecN' on the ground of individual and organic protection and interest. The demands made of its members are such as are calculated to develop and foster good, and repress and restrain bad purposes and conduct; and the exclusion of such as do not comply with these requirements, has been producti\"e of good not on!}' to the members as indi\iduals, but to the chapter as a whole, lea\-ing it purer and stronger. The \\hole number that has been mitiated into the Fraternit\" is forty-fi\"e. Of these there are now nineteen active members. Plight have alread}- entered the acti\-e ministr}', and there are • fourteen more in preparation, of ^^•hom se\-en are in the Luth- eran Theological Seminary, Gettysburg, Pa. Of the rest, there is one ph\-sician, and three more are preparing for the same pro- fession ; three propose stud}'ing law, and three are engaged in mercantile pursuits, thirteen being as }'et undecided concerning their profession.

The meetings of the fraternity are regularly held in a hall rented and furnished for that purpose. F2ver since the organization of the Pennsylvania Beta, its mem- bers have exerted an important influence on the fraternity at large, and have taken an active part in all its work. It has sent delegates to all the National Conventions of the fraternity since its organization, of which C. J. Reddig, '"jy, was chosen President at Woo-ster, Ohio, 1878. On retiring from the presidency at the convention held in Indianapolis, 1880, he was chosen Treasurer of the fraternity at large, which position he still holds. The official organ of the fraternity, The Scroll, has been pub- lished in Gettysburg since the fall of 1879, under the manage- ment of M. F". Troxell, who was elected Editor and Manager by the National Convention of the fraternity held in Indianapolis, 1880. He is assisted by H. H. W'eber, '81, and under its present management it has doubled its circulation, and exerts a wide- spread and beneficial influence on the whole body. The influence of the fraternity on its members is the same in kind as is ever exerted by men upon one another, when banded together for the accomplishment of some good, through right 144 COLLEGE SOCIETIES. means. The efforts they put fortli to attain the ends contem- plated in their " Bond," ah\'a}'s widen their horizon, elevate their purposes, ennoble their lives, and lift them to higher planes of usefulness and activity. Hence the experience of all its mem- bers has been, that their connection with Phi Delta Theta has given them a keener appreciation of, and higher aspiration after the True, the Beautiful and the Good. In addition to the above, three other Greek Letter Societies have existed in Pennsylvania College. The Zeta Psi from i86i to -about 1867 or '68. The Chi Phi of the Princeton Order 1867- 72. These became extinct from various causes. The Upsilon Beta was absorbed by the Sigma Chi. and is referred to under that title. FORMER INSTRUCTORS. DAVID JACOBS. BY I'ROF. 11. K. JACOBS, I). D. David Jacoljs, tlie first teacher in the Gettysburg Gymnasium, was born near Waynesboro', Franklin County (Jacobs' Church), November 22d, 1805. His father, Henry, and grandfather, Martin, were devoted members of the Lutheran Church. At an early age he was left an orphan. He is said to have been in his youth of a very mild and gentle disposition, diffident and retiring, who loved to withdraw himself from his companions, and spend his time in study and reflection. From the very beginning he manifested great thoroughness as a scholar, and was aUvays continuing a side course of .study in addition to those which were regularly prescribed. He was equally attentive to his religious duties, and even before his College days was known as a young man of unobtrusive but deep piety. Under the instruction of Rev. J. Ruthrauff, Sr., he felt himself called to prepare for the ministry, and, with the advice of Dr. Benjamin Kurtz, then pastor at Hagerstown, Md., began his preparation at the Hagerstown Academy, June 15th, 1822. So great was his diligence that within nine days he had committed thoroughly to memory a by no means brief Latin Gram- mar, still in possession of his relatives. In October, 1823, after only a year's prepa- ration, he entered the Junior class of Jefferson College, Canonsburg, Pa., and while there was so distinguished as a linguist, as to supply the place of his Professor of Latin and Greek during his occasional absences. He graduated in 1825, and began the study of Theology at first privately at Hagerstown under Dr. Kurtz, and after- wards when the Theological Seminary at Gettysburg was founded, with its first cla.ss, his name being second on the roll of students. When it was determined to start an Academy as a preparing school for the Seminary, he was requested to assume its charge, and began the exercises of the Gettysburg Gymnasium, June 25th, 1827, with two pupils in attendance. He was distinguished as a thorough teacher, a rigid dis- ciplinarian, and a kind and faithful friend of his pupils, amoffg whom he seems to have been universally beloved. In 1829 he was licensed to preach by the West Pennsylvania Synod, but, owing to the pressure of work upon him, and his constitu- tional diffidence, seldom officiated. That his labors were very arduous is attested not only by the number of hours he spent in instruction, but by the character of his prep- aration for his classes, as is manifest from the annotations with which his text-books abound. His health soon began to yield to the strain, and although net seriously ill, he left Gettysburg .September loth, 1830, on a trip to the South for its recovery, from which he never returned. After traversing North and South Carolina and Virginia on horseback, and visiting among the Lutheran churches scattered throughout those states, he was prostrated on his return trip, by fever at Shepherdstown, Va., where he died November 4th, 1830, when not quite twenty-five years old. His remains rest with those of his fathers in the graveyard of Jacobs' Church. 10 (, 145 ) 146 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. CHARLES PHILIP KRAUTH. BY D. A. BUEHLER, ESQ. Charles Philip Kniulh. the lirst Presitleat of Pennsylvania College, was born in Montgomery county, Pa., J\Iay 7th, 1797. His father, Charles J., was a native of Liermanv, and came to this country in the capacity of teacher and church organist. His mother, Catharine, was a native of Pennsylvania, and a member of the Lutheran church. His parents removed to York, then to Baltimore, and subsequently to Lynch- burg, Va., whei'e both died, the one in 1821, the other in 1823. The son enjoyed no special educational advantages aside from his father's instruction and that obtained at schools in the neighborhood of which he lixed ; but being gifted with superior natural talents, he diligently iinproved his opportunities, and made up their deficiency by unwearying study, forming the habits of accuracy and thoroughness which marked his more mature life and laid the foundations of literary success and commanding influence. He early developed a taste for linguistic studies, in the prosecution of which, while yet a youth, he attained a reputable measure of intellectual culture. Having selected medicine as his profession, he began its study at eighteen years of age under Dr. SeUlen, of Norfolk, ^'a., and attended a course of lectures at the University of Maryland. Ha\ing been brought under special religious influences about that time, he promptly changed his purpose, and determined to consecrate himself to the Christian ministrj-. He began his theological studies undei" Di"- D- F. Schaefler, of Frederick, Md., and completed them under Rev. Abram Reck, of Win- chester, Va., assisting the latter meanwhile in his laborious pastoral duties. He was licensed to preach the gospel by the Synod of Pennsylvania at Baltimore, June 7, 1 819. His first pastoral charge embraced the churches of Martinsburg and Shep- herdstown, Va., where he was eminently successful. The Lutheran Intelligeucer of March, 1S26, gives an interesting account of a remai^kable religious awakening in the charge which, gradual in its beginning, "gathered strength as it proceeded,'" extend- ing through a period of two years. It was at a District Conference held in the church at Martinsburg, whilst Dr. Krauth was pastor, that the enterprise of establishing a Theological Seminary, in connection with the General Synod, originated, and the first funds towards that object were contributed. He presided at the formation of the Synod of Maryland and Virginia in 1S26, and was elected a member of the first Board of Directors of the Rew Seminary. In 1827 Dr. Krauth accepted a call to the newly-organized St. Matthew's English Lutheran Church in Philadelphia, where he not only found a congenial field of labor, but soon won recognition as a faithful pastor and eloquent preacher. His pulpit abil- ities attracted large audiences, and the new enterprise rapidly developed into a strong and influential church. • In 1833, when Dr. Hazelius resigned his Professoi'ship in the Theological Sem- inarj- at Gettysburg, the attention of the Board of Directors was directed to Dr. Krauth, whose reputation as a scholar and theologian was by this time fully recog- nized, and he was chosen Professor of Biblical and Oriental Literature. He gave part of his time to instruction in Pennsylvania College, which had been incorporated the previous year, and the succeeding year (1834) he was unanimously elected Presi- CHARLES IMIIl.II' KKAUTH. I47 (lent of tlie College, being inducted into the latter office at tlie beginning of the winter term. The duties of this responsible ]K)sition he faitlifully ancl continuously discharged, v\ ilh marked acceptance, also giving instruction from time to time in the Seminary, until the fall of 1850, when he resigned the Presidency of the College in order to devote himself wholly to the Professorship in tlic Seminary, to which he had again been unanimously elected by the Hoard of Directors. 'J'his position he held until his death. May 30, 1876. Thirty-three years of his professional life were thu.s devoted to the institutions at Gettysburg, nearly e(iually divided between the College and Seminary. For live years, during his connection with the Seminary, he also met the additional responsibilities of pastor of the College church. Dr. Krautli was a man of great and varied learning — a profound scholar in tlic true sense of the term. He was gifted with a singularly retentive memory, in which were treasured the results of reading and study, covering the whole range of classical and theological literature. He read Latin, (Jreek and (German, with almost the same facility as his vernacular, whereby he familiarized himself with the older ma.sters, while keeping thoroughly abreast the current advance in all al congrega- tion at Mt. Jackson also invited him to become its pastor, and became and has remained Lutheran. He was ordained at Frederick, !Md., September 5, 1S21, by the Synod of Maryland and Yirginia, of which Dr. D. Kurtz was President and D. F. Schceffer, Secretary. In this retired countr)- charge he remained until 1S26. There SAMUEL S. SCHMUCKER. I 55 were seventy communicants when he look charge, and although Rev. Kueblcr became pastor of Armcntroul's and Reder's in 1822, there were two iiundrcd in tlie other congregations when lie left. During this period he was much occupied with the general interests of the churcli. He wrote : " When I left Princeton there .were three pia dcsideria which were very near my heart, for the welfare of our Church : a translation of some one eminent sys- tem of Lutheran Dogmatics, a Theological Seminary, and a College for the Lutheran Church." lie set himself to work to do what in him lay to meet these wants. At Princeton already he selected Mosheim's Elementa Theologiae Dogmatics, which selection was warmly commended by his father and by his intimate friend, F. C. Schaeffer, of New York. Dr. Kiithe, of Allstaedt, near Jena, urged him to take Storr and Malt, and I)i-. Moses Stuart, of Andover, strongly urged him to do so. He so decided, and translated, re-arranged, enlarged and pul;lished Storr and Flatt's IJiblical Theology. The work of preparation of .students for the ministry he began in 1822, and during those years had six students, among whom was his old York pupil, John G. Morris. The Seminary and College would soon come into being. In 1821 a committee was ajipointed by the .Synod of Maryland and Virginia "to compose a discipline to be introduced into the congregations connected with the Synod," and this committee made him Secretary and charged him with its prepara- tion. March 5, 1822, he submitted to the committee at Winchester, Va.,"The Formula for the Government and Discipline of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Maryland and Virginia." It was adopted liy the Synod in 1822, submitted to and ap- proved by the General Synod, 1823, revi^ied and eidarged under his care in 1827 by the Synod of West Pennsylvania, adopted as enlarged by the (jeneral Synod, October 26, 1827, printed in the English Hymn Hook 1829, and became the ground jilan of the organization of the great body of congregations within the (ieneral Synod, and has endured till now. In 1827 he was directed to j^repare the Constitution for Synods, which, adop/ted in 1829, completes the Formula. This little Formula was probaldy the most important, influential and enduring work of his life. In the General Synod and its work he took an active part from his entrance into the ministry to the close of his life. Though not a delegate to the body until its third meeting in 1823, he was present in 1819, 1820 and 1821. When in 1823 the Ministerium of Pennsylvania withdrew and the existence of the General Synod was imperiled, he was very active in the measures taken to prolong its life, and became prominent in the group of younger ministers whose energies were aroused to meet the demands of that decisive period. In 1823, through the Synod, he proposed to the (General Synod a Standing Committee of Foreign Correspondence, and submitted a survey of the Lutheran Church in various countries in Eurojie. He wrote the Pastoral Address in 1825-1829. He and Rev. C. P. Krauth prepared the English Hymn Book, and he edited the English Catechism. The energies of his whole life were devoted pre-eminently to the preparation of candidates for the ministry. This was, from his entrance into the ministry, the work to which he believed himself to be called. He began with one student in 1822, and soon others gathered round him in the secluded village of New Market. He was invited to Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, (jeorgetown, Middletown, and to a general agency (jf the American Bible .Society, and declined all prcjposals. When 156 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. in 1S2S the General Synod decided to establish a Theological Seminary, he was at once and by common consent elected as the first Professor. If the Pennsylvania Ministerium had not withdrawn, and "the needed Seminary had been established under its auspices, Dr. Geissenhainer, Endress, or Lochman would have been chosen; but these were out of the question now. The Professor elect submitted the Statutes, and was charged with the preparation of the Constitution of the Seminary and with much preliminary work. On the 5th of September, 1S26, the Seminary \\as opened at Gettysburg, to which place the Professor had removed. His work in the Seminary is so fully known and so fresh in the memory of all the churches that it need not be described. For four years he was sole Professor, and for most of his life one of but two. The largest part of the early endowment was secured by him in the vacations. The valuable library ^^•as gathered chiefly by Dr. B. Kurtz and himself. Day and night, at home and on journeys, year in and year out, the Seminary was continually in his thoughts. From 1826 to 1846, when he went for a few months to Europe, he had never rested. One generation of students after another had come, received careful instruction, been objects of anxious solicitude, and gone out into the work of the Church. Over four hundred ministers went out from the Seminary in his time ; and a very large proportion of them had been moulded and taken shape under his handling. More than any other man, he determined the position and influenced the activities of the ministry of the Synods which are connected with Gettysburg. After nearly forty years of labor in the Seminary, he resigned his Professorship in 1864. His share in the establishment of Pennsylvania College has been described in a sketch of its early history which appears in this volume. His interest in the College ceased only with his life. In 1848 he was largely instrumental in securing the trans- fer of the Franklin Professorship ; and as a Trustee, from its incorporation to the time of his death, was always interested, active, and had enlarged views of its needs and possibilities. The Doctorate of Divinity was conferred on him in 1S30 by Rutgers College, and I believe by some other college. After the Theological Seminary and the questions connected with its position and prosperity, the subject which lay nearest his heart was that of C/irisfian union. In 1838 already he published an Appeal to the American Churches, with a plan for Catholic union. He engaged in an extended correspondence with prominent men of all denominations on this subject. He went with much delight to the organiza- tion of the Evangelical Alliance in 1846. When all other toils were ended for him, his last task was to revise his plan, collect his testimonies, and publish his " True Unity of Christ's Church," as a preparation for an American meeting of the Alliance which he hoped to witness. He had through all his life a warm interest in, and a large Catholic toleration for, all within the limits of Evangelical Christianity. These views enabled him to secure much aid for the Seminary and College from others than Lutherans, as about $15,000 of the endowment he obtained for the Seminary was from such sources; and the American Education Society aided in the support of the students in the early years. He displayed much activity as an author, having published forty-four works, most of which were Synodical and Occasional Discourses. Many of them are contro- ERNEST L. HAZELIUS. 157 versial, in maintenance of his theological position and of that of the General Synod as he understood it. His Popular Theology, which grew out of his work in the Semi- nary, must have met a want, as it passed through eight editions. His Psychology reached a third edition. The Definite Platform, prepared by him and Dr. B. Kurtz, was the mo.st unacceptable of his publications, though it was an honest expression of his own convictions. His attempts to produce Liturgies were the most unsuccessful of his literary endeavors; the whole cast of his mind, his aversion to a liturgical service, his rejection of all right of past usage to influence the present, sj^ecially un- fitting him for such work. As a preacher he was ever very careful in his preparation ; his sermons were de- vout, earnest, instructive, and he was ever gladly heard. In the history of the pulpit at Christ's Church there have been many admirable preachers : perhaps none of them was habitually more acceptable and profitable than he. In all the great moral movements of his generation he took an active interest. He was an early and earnest advocate of the cause of temperance, the sad end of several of his most loved associates in the ministry having been a solemn warning. His anti-slavery views were clearly defined, and not concealed even when they gave offence, and he carried them out to his own pecuniary loss. He gave much time to the claims of the orphan in connection with Frey's legacy. He was generously charitable to the needy, with hearty sympathy as well as material help. On the 26th of July, 1873, he fell asleep gently, without any protracted suffering, with calm trust in Chri.st the Redeemer. In Gettystnirg, where he passed nearly half a century, where the work of his life was wrought, where he had so large a part in the establishment of Seminary, College and Church, the remembrance of him will not soon be let die. ERNEST L. HAZELIUS. KY PROF. C. A. HAY, D. D. This early Professor of our College was born at Neusalz, in the province of .Silesia, Prussia, September 6, 1777. His father was a Swedish Lutheran, and his mother a Moravian. He was educated at Neusalz, Kleinwelke and Harljy, studying theology at Niesky, a Moravian institution, and was licensed by the authorities of that church to preach the gospel. In 1800, he received an appointment as classical teacher for the Mo- ravian Seminary at Nazareth, in Pennsylvania. In this institution he laljorefl eight years with great efficiency, having during that period been appointed head teacher and Professor of TheoIogy,in the theological department. Differing, however, from his brethren in their views of church government and discipline, and influenced also by other considerations. Rev. Hazelius severed his connection with the Seminary and returned to the church of his ancestors, bearing with him the highest testimonials of his ability as a teacher and his character as a man and a Christian. In 1809, he gave instruction for a short time in a private classical school, and then became pastor of the united congregations of New Germantown, German Valley, and Spruce Run, conducting also a classical school at New Germantown. In 1815, the institution at Hartwick went into operation, and he was selected as 158 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. Professor of Christian Theology and Principal of the Classical Department. He served this institution for fifteen years, acting also as pastor of the village church. In 1830, he became Professor of Biblical and Oriental Literature and of German Language in the Theological Seminary at Gettysburg, Pa., aiding also in the Classical Department of the Gymnasium connected with it; but resigned this position in 1833 to take charge of the Theological Seminary of the Synod of South Carolina, com- mencing his labors there January i, 1834, in which employment he died February 20, 1853. He received the Doctorate simultaneously from Union and Columbia Colleges in New York in 1S24. He was invited to a professorship in Lafayette College, and also in Princeton College. He was a most accurate classical scholar, and very suc- cessful as a teacher. His published writings are a Life of Lvither, Life of Stilling, Augsburg Confession with Annotations, Materials for Catechisation on Passages of Scripture, History of the Lutheran Church in America. He v.as also for some time editor of the Evangelical Magazine, published at Gettysburg. His personal appearance was striking. He was of middle size, and, whether his body was at rest or in motion, there A\as alwavs an inclination of the head so con- siderable as to suggest the idea of a natural deformity. His portrait, now in the Missionary Hall of the Theological Seminary at Gettysburg, painted at the expense of the students of that institution before he left for South Carolina, is not considered as good a likeness as the mezzotint engraving by Sartain from which the photograph in this volume was taken. MICHAEL JACOBS. BY PROF. C. .\. II.AY, D. D.* Michael Jacobs was born in Franklin county, Pa., January iSth, iSoS, of parents of Alsatian descent, and received his early intellectual training in the country schools of his neighborhood. In the fall of 1823 he entered the preparator)' department of Jefierson College, Canonsburg, Pa., and completed his course in that institution widiout the least stain upon his record, being graduated in 1S2S with the second honor of his class and the valedictory. Shortly afterwards he visited Gettysburg, where his brother David had begun the Gettysburg Gymnasium, and was already suffering from overwork as a consequence of being the sole teacher. In conference with Dr. Schmucker and his brother, he promised to take charge of the mathematical and scientific instruction of the school ; but, as he had already engaged to teach in a boarding school at Bel Air, Md., he could not enter upon his work until the following spring. In April, 1829, he accordingly moved to Gettysburg, and when, in 1S32, the Gettysburg Gymnasium became Penn- sylvania College, he was elected Professor of Mathematics and the Natural Sciences. He read theology privately, and in the fall of 1832 was licensed by the West Penn- sylvania Synod. The degree of D. D. was conferred upon him in 1858, almost simultaneously, by ^Yittenberg College, Springfield, O., and his Alma Mater. In 1833 he was married to Miss Julia M. Eyster of Harrisburg, His labors in the Col- * Credit is hereby given for matter taken from the sketch in Dr. JNIorris' " Fifty Years in the Lutheran Ministry," by H. E. J. MICHAEL JACOB?. 159 lege were very arduous. Three professors have occupied the field which he had to cultivate alone. The resources of the College were so limited that, in order to do justice to his department, he was compelled to construct the most of the chemical and philosophical apparatus that he used, and portions of this apparatus were so well made that they are in use to-day in the class-room. He filled his regular appoint- ments as preacher in the College church. He was repeatedly President and Treasurer of his Synod, and for a time he was Secretary of the General Synod. He was editor of the second volume of the Linnrean Record and Journal. In 1865 his department was divided, and he remained Professor of Mathematics alone. In 1866 he withdrew entirely from the work of instruction. For some years his health had gradually been declining. He continued a student until the last, and was engaged in a course of scientific reading until w ithin a few days of his death, which occurred on July 22d, 1871. Among the strongly marked characteristics of Dr. Jacobs, we note the following : 1. His quickness of perception. He seemed almost by intuition to grasp at once any subject to which he gave attention. This was most strikinglyillustrated in his favorite department of mathematics, often to the no small vexation of the less gifted and more sluggish minds that he was painfully laboring to inspire with a love for his darling science. Indeed, this very gift became sometimes a cross to him, as it fairly tortured him to find how slow his pupils were to grasp what seemed to him clear as a sunbeam. This trait made him minutely thorough and accurate in all the branches of his wide department, and constituted him a close and discriminating observer, not only of the phenomena of nature, but also of human conduct and character. 2. His soundness of judgment. This is a quality often lacking in men richly en- dowed with intellectual gifts, but in Dr. Jacobs it was so strongly marked as to single him out as a good adviser even in the most ordinary affairs of life, and particularly in matters pertaining to his line of study. This trait was specially noticeable in his contribution to the then just formultting science of meteorology of which he was one of the early students. The observations of Prof. Jacobs rank high, and his conclu- sions in reference to the methods and means necessary for the forecasting of weather changes have stood the test of more recent investigations, and in a large measure antici- pated them. It is greatly to be regretted that the results of these researches were not placed in permanent form. Several papers were published in the Linnsean Record and yournal, and one which attracted much attention in the Records of the Ameri- can Association for the Advancement of Science. Not long ago the Weather Bureau authorities at Washington made inquiry for the lectures of Prof. Jacobs, desiring to print them as an evidence of the value of early inquiry into meteorology by Americans. 3. His excessive modesty. True merit is always modest, but in Dr. Jacobs this amounted to bashfulness, and operated often to his disadvantage, hindering him from that recognition of his talents and acquirements to which he was so justly entitled. 4. His self-sacrificing devotion to what he was convinced was his duty. It is not too much to say that he " counted not his life dear unto himself" that he might fulfill the task to which he had devoted it, viz.: to serve the Church in the sphere to which his Heavenly Father had assigned him. Indeed, the thought will obtrude itself upon us that that precious and most useful life might have been longer spared to us had he somewhat restrained his zeal and relaxed his excessive labors. l60 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. 5. His outspoken frankness and sincerity-. Himself the farthest removed from all double-dealing or hypocrisy, he could hardly restrain his indignation when these traits betrayed themselves in others, nor did his native mildness of disposition then prevent him from administering deserved rebuke. 6. His true love of nature. He was in harmony with her evenwhere. The stones and the flowers were his familiar friends ; the ver}- clouds seemed to reveal their secrets to him. His Father made them all, and in and through them he loved his Father all the more. 7. His sincere attachment to the Lutheran Church. And this not merely, as in the case of many others, to her name and to her Protestant principles in general, but to her doctrines and life. With no taste for controversy, he was always firm and consistent in maintaining his ground as a sound and orthodox Lutheran. 8. His warmly affectionate pulpit st}-le. His native and unconquerable timidit)' operated, as elsewhere so also in the pulpit, to his disadvantage. But he never failed to exhibit an earnest and even yearning desire to instrucf his hearers and to persuade them to embrace, the truth and come into living communion with God. Those accus- tomed to hear him, speak of the impressive character of his discourses and their stimulating influence. He joined heartily with his colleagues in the Faculty, during the seasons of special religious interest in the earlier years of the College, when, under their faithful searching sermons and affectionate appeals, so many of the students were hopefully converted. Doubtless there are mam- now in the ranks of our ministr}-, and in other spheres of honorable Christian usefulness, whom he was instrumental in winning to Christ. He possessed in an eminent degree the elements of a good teacher. He was greatlv devoted to the work. He comprehended with unusual facility and fulness the branch^ he taught. Though these ran in different lines of thought, he was equally at home in each of them, whether it was Higher Mathematics, Chemistr}-, Natural Philosophy, Mineralog}-, Geolog)\ ISIeteorolog}-. o« Botany. He kept fully abreast of the advances in each department, and carried with him to the class-room a vast amount of information on each subject, which, as occasion required, he freely com- municated. He sought to stimulate inquir}^ and awaken interest in the mind of his pupUs. He would simplify- and clear away knottj' points, and often give original and easier solutions of mathematical problems, for tlie purpose of encouraging the student. It was not enough that a lesson was well recited, but he saw to it that it was under- stood. The many pupils under his charge duiing the thiny-seven years of his Pro- fessorship bear testimony to his special fitness as a teacher. J. H. MARSDEN. This member of the early Faculty was bom September 25, 1S03, near New Oxford, Adams Count}-, Pa. His preparatorj- education was obtained in the old Gettjsburg Academy, under Dr. ^IcConaughy, and after spending one year in Dickinson College, he graduated at Jefferson College in 1825. Having pursued a three-year course in the Theological Seminar}- of Virginia, Alexandria, D. C, he entered, after a year spent in teaching, the Ministr}- of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in September, 1829. A dav or two after, Mr. Marsden engaged in a school for young ladies at Gettysburg, WILLIAM MORTON REYNOLDS. l6l which was afterwards chartered as the Gettysburg Female Seminary. On the death of I'rof. David Jacobs, Prof. Marsden was urged by Prof. M. Jacobs and Dr. Schmucker to assist in the Gymnasium; he consented, and on the chartering of the College be- came one of the Faculty, having charge of Mineralogy and Botany, and continued in this position till 1836. During this time Prof. Marsden retained his connection with the Female Seminary. In 1839 he was compelled by reason of failing health to seek more active employment. He therefore removed to York Springs, and de- voted himself to the service of the Episcopal Church in that and neighboring places. During his residence in Gettysburg he had served the same church. Finding that his health required constant bodily activity. Prof. Marsden completed the medical .studies he had previou.sly engaged in, and graduated at Jefferson Medical College in 1847, Since that date he has been actively and successfully engaged in the practice of med^ icine at York Springs. Dr. Marsden has written extensively for the medical journals, and has published a Hand-book of Practical Midwifery, pp. 320. K. s. B. WILLIAM MORTON REYNOLDS. BY PROF. H. E. JACOBS, 1). I). Wm. M. Reynolds, the seventh son of George Reynolds, a captain in the Revolu- tionary war, and a relative of the distinguished Sir Joshua Reynolds, was born in Fayette county. Pa., along the Youghiogheny river, March 4th, 1812. In early child- hood he removed with his father to Hagerstown, Md. After the death of his father, he was under the care of Mr. George Shryock, one of the founders of the General Synod. Under the direction of Dr. Benjamin Kurtz, he entered the Theological Seminary at Gettysburg in 1828, where he graduated in 1830. Feeling the la:k of a complete classical course, he entered the Junior class of Jefferson College, Canons- burg, Pa., the same year, and was ^aduated in 1832. After teaching for a year in a classical school in New Jersey, he became in 1833 Principal of the Preparatory Department of Pennsylvania College, to which the duties of Professor of Latin were soon added. In 1835 he was for a brief period Financial Agent of the College. In the same year he was licensed by the West Pennsylvania Synod, having previously received from its president ad interim license. His connection with the College was temporarily interrupted during the scholastic year of 1 835-6, when he was pastor of the Lutheran church at Deerfield, near Allo- waystown, N. J. He was ordained by the Ministerium of Pennsylvania in 1836. He was recalled to his former post the same year, and continued to serve the College until he became President of Capital University, Columbus, O., in 1850. Here he continued for three years. Then, until 1857, he was successively Principal of a Female Seminary at Easton, Pa., and the classical school at AUentown, whence Muhlenberg College sprang. From 1857 to i860, he was President of Illinois State University, Springfield, 111., after which he became Principal of a Female Seminary in Chicago. In 1864 he took orders in the Protestant Episcopal church, and before his death served two parishes, one at Warsaw, 111., and the other at Harlem, a suburb of Chicago. He died at his home at Oak Park, September 5th, 1876. Dr. Reynolds was distinguished as a man of wide and varied scholarship. He was especially proficient in the languages, having accpured in addition to the classical, II 1 62 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. a number of modern languages, German, Dutch, Swedish. Icelandic, Italian, etc. His researches into the early histon- of the Lutheran Church in America are a per- manent memorial of the thoroughness of his methods. He \Yas an accomplished h}Tnnologist, and devoted himself with great zeal to the rendering into Enghsh of the inimitable master-pieces of German hymnody. A number of his versions have been lai^ely adopted, and are found in collections of various churches. He was a man of unwearied energy, as his numerous publications show. While at Gettysbui^, he started in 1840 the " Evangelical Magazine," was editor of " Linnsean Record and Toumal," Vol. i, and in 1849, founded the "Evangelical Review," of which until 1862 he was co-editor and a ver\- frequent contributor. He pubhshed in 1846, for the use of his students, an edition of ■• The Captives" of Plautus. The transla- rion from the Swedish of Acrelius" History of New Sweden, is the most important of his works. He was the chief editor of the Hymn Book of the General Synod, in use prior to the Book of Worship, as well as a prominent member of the Liturgi- cal Committee. In 1842, he was the acknowledged leader of the movement in which a number of English-speaking ministers left the >[!'-i!sreri'.!rp '^f' Fe''-~^ Iv-h'-t and founded the East Pennsylvania Synod.

James Cooper (^afterwards United States Senator), on an occasion when they were present, and finished the argument which the mem- bers of the Society had begiin. His resignation, in 1835, was prompted by the fear that his zeal in this direction was operating against the College, in alienating the Southern patronage. He received the degree of D. D. in 1S50 from Jefferson College. He was married in Tuae, 1838, to Miss Anna M. Swan, of Gettysburg, who still sorrives. His last visit to Gettysburg was made in June, 1S73, when he preached once more in the College church. HERMAN HAUPT.

DAVID GILBERT & H. I. SCHMIDT. 163 Pennsylvania College conferred the degree of A. M. on Prof. Ilaupt in 1839, and he served a.s member and Secretary of the Board of Visitors to the U. S. Military Academy, 1861. Mr. Haupt has a high reputation for aljility and skill among civil engineers, as is shown by the several positions he has occupied. K. .s. h. DAVID GILBERT. liV J. M. KKAUTll, y.St). Dr. David tJilbert was born in Adams county. Pa., July 27, 1803, and died in Philadelphia, Pa., on the 28th of July, 1868. After an academical education, he entered Jefferson College, at Canonsburg, Pa., and graduated in 1825. Upon the completion of his college course he read medicine with Dr. John Paxton, of Gettys- burg, and attended lectures at the Jefferson Medical College, Philadelphia. After receiving his degree he located at Northumberland, Pa., where he successfully prac- ticed his profession until 1832, when he removed to Gettysburg, lie resided there until 1851, when he removed to Philadelphia. Shortly afterwards (iov. Bigler appointed him Physician of the Port. In 1844, he was elected Profe.ssor of the Principles and Practice of Surgery in the Pennsylvania Medical College, and subse- C|uently Professor of Obstetrics and the Diseases of Women and Chiklren in the same institution. For a long time he was prominently and actively identified with the interests of Pennsylvania College, having been elected a member of the Board of Trustees in 1834, and served until 1865. He was Secretary of the Hoard from 1835 ""til 1852. He was also a Director of the Theological Seminary, and for many years Treasurer of the General Synod of the Lutheran Church. Dr. Gilbert was admirably fitted by nature and education to lill and magnify the office of the good physician. With great urbanity and dignity, a most pleasing address, full of that rare gift of cheer which brings sunshine wherever its possessor goes, he reached a deservedly high position socially and professionally. To him more than any one was due the establishment and succe.ss of the Medical Department of Pennsylvania College. On his removal to Philadelphia he .soon took that high rank to which his rare ([ualities entitled him, and both as professor and practitioner he .stood at the very summit of his profession. He discharged the duties of every trust assumed l)y him with conscientious fidelity, and died lamented by all who ever knew him. H. I. SCHMIDT. Prof. Schmidt, whom the early students well remember, Vi'as born December 21, 1806, at Nazareth, Pa. His father was a highly distinguished physician, whose pro- found and elegant scholarship gave an early impulse and direction to the successful studies of his son. The preparatory education of Prof. Schmidt was received in the justly celebrated Pijedagogium or Academy at his native place. His theological training was received at the Moravian Seminary, located in the same place. He became a Candidatus Theologite in 1826. Teaching for several years in the academy was expected of the graduates of the Seminary. Mr. Schmidt complied with this custom. In 1829 he severed his connection with the Moravian Church, and was 164 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. licensed by the Ministerium of Xew York in the same year. From 1S31 to 1S33 he served Lutheran congregations in Bergen county, X. J- From 1S33 to 1S36 he was Assistant Professor in Hartwick Seminary. He then resigned his professorship to obey a call of the New York ^linisterium, to serve a newly-established Lutheran church in Boston, Mass. Prof. Schmidt became connected with Pennsylvania College in 1S3S, as Professor of German and French Languages and Literature, and in 1839 became German Professor in the Theological Seminary. Here Prof. Schmidt passed what he describes " as nearly- five of the happiest y^ears of my life." 0\\ ing to the financial embarrassments of the College, Prof. Schmidt resigned in 1S43 to become pastor of the church at Palatine, X. J- In 1S45 he accepted the Principalship of Hart- wick Seminary. In 1S48 he became Professor of German Language and Literature in Columbia College, New York. After precisely thirty-three years of verj- acceptable service, he was compelled by reason of a long-continued peculiar nervous affection to resign his position. Since November i, iSSo, he has been Prof. Emeritus in Colum- bia College, and occasionally preaching in Lutheran pulpits in Xew York and vicin- itv. Pennsylvania College conferred on Prof. Schmidt, in 1839, the degree of A. M., and in 1S50 the degree of D. D. The pubUcations of Dr. Schmidt have been very- numerous and of high merit. Many- articles occur in the earlier numbers of the Ez'angelical JRez-iiiv, as also in other magazines and periodicals. In 1842, Prof. Schmidt published in Harper's Family Librar\- a " History of Education." In 1S52, " The Scriptural Character of the Lutheran Doctrine of the Lord's Supper," pp. 1S6. In 1S61, a " Course of Ancient Geography," pp. 32S. A former pupil of Dr. Schmidt furnishes us the following estimate of him as a teacher. " His most striking traits were accuracy of grammatical analysis, refinement and gentleness of manner, and a keen sensitiveness as to the proprieties of intercourse between the Professor and the student. Thoroughly familiar with the German and French languages, and wielding the pen of a master in English style, those who were privileged to enjoys his instructions could implicitly yield themselves to his guidance, and had to charge it to the account of their own indolence or dullness if they did not make steady and rapid progress." E. s. B. MARTIN LUTHER STOEVER. BY CHARLES \V. SCHAEFFER, D. D. " Some men achieve greatness, others have greatness thrust upon them." Yet, it might be possible for both conditions to be realized in one and the same pei-son. A man of noble, generous nature, a stranger to the selfish aims of personal ambition, will devote his strength and life to the benevolent service of liis race ; and as the natural result, his name will come to occupy a prominence amongst the great and the good, which he himself, perhaps, would never have anticipated, and be surrounded with a lustre that might prove to be dazzling to his own modesty. This greatness is thrust upon him, for it comes in defiance of his own unselfishness ; and yet he has himself achieved it, for its moving cause is within and not without him. It is the result of his own labor, the ripened fruit of his own virtue, not the bhnd offering of partial friendship, nor the obsequious homage of irrational admiration. MARTIN LUTHER STOEVER. . 1 65 Such cases, whenever they do occur, ouglit to be set down among the very highest types of greatness. They may not he marked by the adventurous courage of the sokher, nor by the extraordinary sagacity of the statesman, nor by the brilliant, in- tellectual force that distinguishes the poet or the philosopher; but they have all the elements of moral greatness, that high degree that can be attained only by those who come to know and to discharge the great duties of life, and what they ought to do in this present world. To the many familiar frienrls of the late Prof. M. L. Stoever, of Pennsylvania College, it might naturally occur that his own life was an interesting and truthful illustration of the case supposed. Brilliant conceptions, startling schemes, enterprises distinguished for f|uaint originality rather than practical utility, cannot be claimed as furnishing material for an honest 'record of his life. But, the moral greatness of a good man who filled a position that abounded in extraordinary opportunities of use- fulness, and filled it well, will be sure to enliven all the pages of any history of him that might be written, with a brightness that would be cheerfully recognized, at once, by all who knew him, and upon which even strangers might look with approbation. The positive limits of the present article will necessarily confine it to a general statement of the more prominent facts of his life, and forbid what might otherwise prove to be an in.structive exhibition of those principles, of which his life as a man, as an educator, and as a Christian, was so fine an illustration. Prof. Stoever was born in Germantown, Pa., February 17, 1820. Consecrated to the Lord in his infancy, the training t)f his childhood and his youth was continuously guided by his mother, a woman of unfeigned faith, in the direction of the ministry of the gospel. It was with this high object alone in view, that he went to Getty.slmrg in 1833; where, having prosecuted the prescribed course of study in Pennsylvania College, he was graduated with high honor, having the Latin Salutatory in 1838. From that day, the demands made upon liim as a teacher of generous youth were'so pressing and constant as to break up all his early plans, so fondly cherished, and to constrain him at last, to his own deep regret, to abandon the hope of ever serving his generation in the ministry of the Word. It may be claimed that it was not his own choice, but the dispensation of Divine Providence, that turned him aside from one noble profession upon which he had set his heart, to another for which he seemed to be specially gifted, and in the prosecution of which his life abounded in such excellent and enduring fruit. Like as in the case of Dr. Chalmers, ujion abandoning the pastoral relation and becoming a Professor of Theology, the argu- ment may be the same : " I hope to l)ecome still more useful in the ministry, which you say I have abandoned ; for now I expect, by the ble.ssing of the Lord, to educate many ministers, and to train them in mind and heart, for the preaching of the Word." So the number is not small, of watchmen now upon the walls of Zion who, among their fondest recollections, will ever cherish the happy impressions made upon them by the well-defined personality of Prof. Stoever — his genial nature, his purity of heart, the sincerity of his faith, the warmth of his friendship, his scholarly devotion and accuracy, and his success in inspiring his pupils with the love of what- soever things are just, and honest, and of good report. Beginning with the time of his graduation, in 1838, he advanced by rapid steps, through the headship of a Classical Academy in Maryland, and of the Preparatory l66 • FORMER INSTRUCTORS. School at Gettysburg, until in 1S45 ^">^ "'^^ elected Professor of History in Pennsyl- vania College ; and after several enlargements of his duties, was finally chosen Pro- fessor of the Latin Language and Literature, and of Political Economy, in 1855. Correct ideas of discipline and felicity in the administration of it "are of prime im- portance in the character of a teacher ; and the high claims of Prof. Stoever in this department may be gathered from the fact, that after the retirement of President Krauth, the duties of presiding officer devolved upon him for many months, and the administration of discipline was successfully disposed of, not in the harshness of un- reasoning rigor, but by the subduing and controlling influence of patience, sound judgment and wise discrimination. Though, as already intimated, he was a stranger to the selfish aims of personal ambition, nevertheless his success as an educator spread his fame abroad, whilst the literary honors conferred upon him by institutions of learning, and the prominent positions in their service offered to his acceptance, were such as might well have sat- isfied a spirit even of towering aspirations. The honorary degree Ph. D. was con- ferred upon him by Hamilton College, X. Y., in 1S66; and in 1S69 he received the degree LL. D. from Union College. X. Y. The presidency of Girard College, Philadelphia, was offered to him in 1862 ; in 1869 he was elected Professor of Latin in Muhlenberg College ; and at divers times he was strongly pressed to assume the charge of several well-organized female seminaries in the West. These honors he gracefully acknowledged, but respectfully declined, for the reason that the same Providence which had bound him so long to Pennsylvania College, and with such good results, did not appear to indicate it as his duty to withdraw from the service of his Alma ^Slater. A sad evidence that he departed to his rest in the midst of his usefulness, and with his fine capacities in full vigor, may be observed in the fact that whilst his mortal remains were as yet awaiting interment, a letter reached his house addressed to him by Bishop Clarkson of the Episcopal church, one of his former pupils, announcing with great cordiality his election as President of the University then recently founded at Lincoln, Xebraska. His literary labors, though not greatly diversified, were extended ; and his services as a journalist and a biographer afford many illustrations of intelligent enterprise, of patient investigation, and of a clear perception of character. He was connected with the Evangelical Quarterly Rei.'ie'cV from its beginning in 1849, and was its sole Editor from 1857 until the time of his death. He had an article in ever)' number; and the Church will ever remember with gratitude his faithful record of the lives of good naen who, after an earnest ministry, entered into their rest, and whose names and memories have been rescued from oblivion by his industrious and ready pen. He has been called, and deservedly, " The Plutarch of the Lutheran Church ;" for in the variety of his subjects, in the patience of his investigations, in the heartiness of his work, and in the artistic harmony of his details, he seems to have followed, though it may be involuntarily, the high example of that illustrious father of biog- raphy. He ever lived a theologian in spirit, and his official services in the Church were constant, varied, and always important. His Secretaryship of the General Synod, which continued for years, as also his Treasurership of the Education Society, were invariably marked by that love of order, that systematic precision, which had been, JOHN GEORGE MORRIS. 16/ even from his youth, so distinct a feature of his character. As a representative of Lutheranism in the presence of other evangehcal bodies, and in social intercourse with Christian men of other name, his bearing was such as to be, at once, creditable to himself, and honorable to the Church that he loved. Among the attractions of Gettysburg, which are partly natural, as of old, and partly historic, of more recent times, we have no hesitation in according a lofty position to its hospitality. Of this hospitality Prof. Stoever was a noble representative. He dis- pensed it, of course, not with obtrusive display, but with the refinement of a gentle- man, with the sincerity of a Christian, with a delicacy that always put his guests at ease, and with a heartiness that seemed to show that the use of hospitality was a very delight to himself. Men whose names are prominent in the world of letters, theology, science, ecclesiastical dignitaries, eminent professors, Christian men, whose reputation is world-wide, have often met and been refreshed at his generous board, and enjoyed repose beneath his hospitable roof. They may forget the viands and the order of courses that attended these fine occasions ; but their recollection of the genial Pro- fessor and of his pleasant family, their remembrance of "the feast of reason and the flow of soul," that accompanied them, will not soon pass away. He was an active member of the United States Christian Commission during the war of the Rebellion. His support of the Government was hearty and unwavering, whilst his sympathy for sick and wounded soldiers was often costly to himself, and always deep, patient, and unbounded. To his service as Professor in Pennsylvania College, he ever delighted to add the labors of an Alumnus ; and in originating and prosecuting the endowment of the Alumni Professorship, his influence was always prominent and untiring. Professor Stoever's death, li'ce his life, was peaceful and quiet. He came to Phil- adelphia after the arduous labors of a trying session to find rest among his friends, but only two days before his death was it thought necessary to seek the aid of a physician. During the early morning of the day on which he died, he roused and said to his wife and son : " The hour of my departure is at hand." Immediately he fell into a sleep, from which he awoke to receive that " crown of righteousness, which the Lord the righteous Judge shall give unto all that love his appearing." He died surrounded by his own family and friends, among them his aged mother, whom he so dearly loved ; and his body was laid quietly to rest in the churchyard of Trinity Lutheran church, Germantown. His grave is marked by a stone with this simple inscription : "Martin Luther Stoever. Born February 17, 1820. Died July 22, 1870. For thirty-one years an instructor in Pennsylvania College. ' He giveth his beloved sleep.' " JOHN GEORGE MORRIS. The subject of this sketch was born in York, Pa., in 1803; graduated from Dick- inson College 1823; studied theology at Princeton and Gettysburg Seminaries, and was licensed as a member of the first class of the latter institution, in 1826. Dr. Morris has gained deserved distinction as a clergyman, scientist, historian, and bibli- ophile, combining with these meritorious work as author and teacher. As a clergyman he was founder and pastor of Fifst church, Baltimore, from 1827 to i860. Served Third church, Baltimore, as supply for some years, and is at present serving the church at Lutherville. Dr. Morris is a forcible and impressive preacher. 1 68 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. As a scientist. Dr. Morris has devoted himself specially to entomology and micro- scopy. He is well and favorably known among American and foreign scientists, particularly through his researches in entomology. As an historian he has devoted himself to the study of the development of the Lutheran Church in America, and the origin of Protestantism in Germany, in the labors of Luther and the growth of the Church he established. As a bibliophiler Dr. Morris has collected a valuable library in the departments of his study, possessing many rare works. He was appointed Librarian and Superintendent of Peabody In- stitute, Baltimore, in i860, and projected the plan of conducting the Library^ and during his three years' service directed the expenditure of $50,000 for books, laying the foundation of one of the finest reference libraries in the country. As a teacher, Dr. Morris has delivered courses of lectures on Natural History in Pennsylvania College from 1834. These lectures have had great popularity, and stimulated much good work. He has given for a number of years instruction in the Theological Seminary in pulpit elocution, and the relation of science and religion ; he has also given instructions in Lutherville Seminary, and has been in demand as a lecturer for many years at various places. Dr. Morris has always been a friend and promoter of thorough education. Since the granting of the charter, except an in- terval of ten years, he has been a Trustee of Pennsylvania College. AYith his brother, C. A. Morris, he founded Lutherville Female Seminary. He has been a Director of the Theological Seminaiy at Gettysburg. Many honors have been well bestowed on Dr. Morris. The D. D. was given by Pennsylvania College in 1839, and the LL. D. in . He has been a lecturer be- fore the Smithsonian Institute, is a member of the Royal Ante-Columbian Society of Northern Antiquaries, Copenhagen; of Die Naturhistorische Gesellschaft zu Nurnberg, Bavaria ; of the Royal Historical Society, London ; for twenty years an active member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and Chairman of the Entomological Sub-section of the same ; also member of many other American Societies ; Secretary of General Synod in 1839; President, of same, 1843; originator and President of First Lutheran Church Diet, Philadelphia, 1877. As an author, Dr. Morris has published a number of valuable works in departments of theolog)% science, history, and bibliography ; the formal volumes number over twenty titles, besides many addresses, review and magazine articles, and scientific papers. He was the founder of the Lutheran Obsei-ver in 1831, and one of its most esteemed contributors during the time since his editorial connection ceased in 1833; We have space to mention but a few of these publications : " Catechumen's and Communicant's Companion," 1831, pp. 250. "Popular Exposition of the Gospels for Families," etc., 2 vols., 1840. "Catharine de Bora," 1856, pp. 127. "Quaint Sayings and Doings Concerning Luther," 1859, pp. 284. "Day in Augsburg."

SCHAEFFER. 169 FREDERICK AUGUSTUS MUHLENBERG. F. A. Muhlenberg was born August 25, 1818, in Lancaster, Pa. His father, F. A. Muhlenberg, was a prominent physician, and his mother was the granddaughter of Rev. J. II. Schauni, one of the early Lutheran clergymen in America. After receiving preparatory studies in home schools, he entered the Sophomore class in Pennsylvania College in 1833, and subsequently entered Jefferson College, where he graduated in 1836. While Prof. Muhlenberg entered the ministry in 1854, having spent 1837-8 in Princeton Theological Seminary, he has devoted himself to teaching, for which work he has rare qualifications, as the hundreds of young men who have been under his care will all testify. Careful and thorough in drill, never failing to awaken the interest, if not the enthusiasm of his pupils; .strict and kind, requiring the best work of which the pupil is capable, and helpful and encouraging in every way in which the pupil may stand in need ; prompt to punish a vice, just and tender in treating a failing. The several positions lield by Prof. Muhlenljerg are as follows: Professor in Franklin College, 1838 to 1 850; Professor of Greek in Penn.sylvania College, 1850 to 1867; President of Muhlenberg College, 1867 to 1876; Professor of Greek in the University of Pennsylvania since 1876. Prof. Muhlenberg has occupied various positions of trust in the Church. His pub- lications are numerous contributions to the Reviews and other church periodicals; he has also been a membar of the editorial staff of the Lutheran. In 1867 Pennsyl- vania College conferred on him the degree of D. D. Prof. Muhlenberg was married August 8, 1848, to Miss Catharine Anna Muhlen- berg, of Reading, Pa. E. s. li. CHARLES F. SCHAEFFER. 1!Y li. M. SCIIMUfKER, I). D. Charles Frederick Schaeffer was born .September 3, 1807, at Germantown, Penna., where his father was pa.stor of St. Michael's Church. His parents were Rev. Dr. Frederick D. Schaeffer and Rosina his wife, born Rosenmiller. He was baptized at St. Michael's, September 14, 1807, and confirmed in Zion's Church, Philadelphia. His early training was received in the parochial school of Zion's Church, Philadel- phia, where his father became pastor in 1812. The chief language of the school was German, and here he began to obtain the accurate acquaintance with that language which was so fully recognized in after years. His collegiate studies were pursued at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was graduated in July, 1827, Dr. Fred. Beasley being then Provost. Here he formed the habits of diligent study and minutely accurate scholar.ship, which characterized him through life, and became an absolute intellectual necessity to him. His attachment to the Alma Mater who nourished him, and his brothers, was strong and enduring. His theological studies were pursued privately, under the direction, in part, of his father, but chiefly of the pastor adjunctus, Rev. Chas. R. Demme. He was admitted to the office of the ministry, June 17, 1829, l)y licensure by the I/O FORMER INSTRUCTORS. Synod of Maryland. He spent some months assisting his brother Christian in New York. His first pastoral care was of the Carlisle, Pa., charge of four congregations- Carlisle, Frankford, Chuixhtown, and Sulphur Springs — where he was elected October 20, 1830, and remained in charge until 1834, when, August 24, he resigned, and in November removed to Hagerstown. He was received by the Synod of West Penn- sylvania, and ordained October 12, 1831. While at Carlisle he was married, August 27, 1832, by Dr. E. L. Hazelius, to Susanna, daughter of Dr. J. G. Schmucker, of York. He remained at Hagerstown, until May, 1840. At the close of 1839, he was invited to become the successor of Rev. Wm. Schmidt, as sole Professor of the Theological Seminary, Columbus, O., which had been begun in 1830 at Canton, and removed, 1831, to Columbus. He accepted, and not only had sole charge of the entire course of theological instruction in German and English, but was also pastor of the town congregation. The work was very arduous, but also delightful, the whole cast and habitudes of his mind specially fitting him to be a the- ological instructor. He continued here until 1843, when, on account of difficulties with German pastors and interests, he accepted a call to the congregation at Lancaster, O., and lemoved November 21, 1843. He removed to Red Hook, Dutchess county, N. Y., December 23, 1845. While at Red Hook, the honorary degree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred on him by Pennsylvania College. In April, 1851, he became pastor of St. John's church, Easton, Pa., and preached in English and German in this laborious charge for five years, until called to Gettysburg. In 1 85 1, the Trustees of Pennsylvania College propos^ed to the Ministerium of Pennsylvania to found a Professorship of the German Language and Literature, and to retain the perpetual nomination of the incumbent. The proposition was accepted, and steps taken to secure the money. In 1854, Rev. Dr. Mann was nominated, but declined; in 1855, the Ministerium nominated Dr. C. F. Schaeffer, and after some difficulties with reference to labors to be performed in the Seminary were arranged, he accepted and removed to Gettysburg in April, 1856, and entered on his duties at the opening of the summer session. He was specially well fitted to discharge the duties of his position, whether in the College or the Seminary. The Ministerium which founded the Professorship laid most stress on his work in the Seminary, and he devoted himself to it with much dil- igence and proved very efficient. In Pennsylvania College he gave a new impetus to the study of the German. He was an enthusiastic lover of the language and its literature, and enthusiasm is conta- gious. He established a literary society in which the German language alone was used. He induced the Ministerium in 1857 to request that the German language be no longer an optional study, but a part of the regular course, and in i860 this change was made by the Board. He commanded in an eminent degree the respect .and affection of his pupils, by his attainments, by his enthusiasm, by his courtesy, and by his whole character and life ; and even his little peculiarities, so interesting to students, were amiable. While at Gettysburg he collected about $3,000 for the purchase of a residence for the Professor. In 1S64 he was removed by the Ministerium to Philadelphia, and made Chairman of the Faculty of the Theological Seminary established by it. This was to him the most attractive position and occupation of his life, his whole time being given to a ALFRED MARSHALL MAYER. I/I limited portion of the course of theological instruction. In tliis pcsition of great influence, toiling faithfully and successfully, having the love and veneration of the students and the perfect confidence of the churches, he continued until the day of life waned, and at last closed gently, November 23, 1879. He was connected with the following Synods: Synod of Maryland, June, 1829- October, 1831, and October, 1834-40; Synod of West Pennsylvania, October, 1831- October, 1834; AVestern District Synod of Ohio, 1840-44; Synod of Miami, 1844 -September, 1846; Ministerium of New York, September, 1846-June, 185 1 ; Min- i.sterium of Pennsylvania, June, 1851-November 23, 1879. As a preacher, Dr. Schaeffer held a very high place. His preparation for the pul- pit was always very thorough and systematic. His sermons were rich and instructive in matter, clothed in language of classical purity, and delivered with quiet grace and earnest dignity. He devoted much attention to homiletics. He was a diligent exe- getical student of the Scriptures in the original, and his sermons were full of the results of such careful biblical study. As a pastor, he was in the visitation of the afflicted, faithful, sympathetic and con- solatory ; in regular systematic visitation he was most exact. He was a born teacher. All the peculiarities of his mind, and all the habits of his life, united to make him excel in this office. The minute accuracy, even in the least matters, which his nature required, made him both exact and exacting as a teacher. The enthusiasm with which he entered into every study communicated itself to his students. His convictions of truth were attained only after exhaustive examination, but were then very ab.solute. A large part of his influence on students and in the Synod and Church was due to this sure conviction. His personal Christian character was marked by much serious earnestness, devout- ness, conscientiousness and consistency. His humility and low estimate of himself and his labors were touching. All the ever recurring evidences of the honor and esteem of the Church could not evercome it. After a long and toilsome life, he lay down to rest with a lowlier sense than ever of his own unworthiness, but with a complete trust in a crucified Redeemer. ALFRED MARSHALL MAYER. Prof. Mayer was the first incumbent of the special chair of Natural Science in Pennsylvania College. He was born in Baltimore, November 3, 1836. At sixteen he left St. Mary's College, Baltimore, to enter the workshop and draughting-room of a mechanical engineer. Here he remained two years, and afterward spent the same length of time in an analytical chemical laboratory. He has occupied the chair of Physics in connection with Chemistry or Astronomy, in the following institutions : University of Maryland, 1856-8; Westminster College, Missouri, 1859-61 ; Penn- sylvania College, 1865-7; Lehigh University, 1867-70, and Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, N. J., since 1871. The years 1863-4 were spent in Paris, engaged in the study of mathematics and physics. Pennsylvania College conferred on him the Ph. D., 1867.' Prof. Mayer as a teacher stimulates inquiry, and spares no pains to present the subject under discussion in a clear and distinct manner. As an experimenter he has few equals, thoroughly comprehending the value of experimen- 172 FORMER INSTRUCTORS. tation ; appreciating the necessity of exact work, and having a full grasp of the bear- ing of the several departments of physics, he illustrates each topic in a very lucid and striking manner. ' As an investigator Prof. Mayer has done a very great deal of excellent work. Not confining himself to any special department of physics, his papers cover a wide range of subjects, and in many instances very valuable results have been obtained. His researches in magnetism, heat, and acoustics, are specially important. Prof. Mayer is a member of many scientific societies at home and abroad, and has had many well-merited honors shown him by his associates in scientific work. E. S. B. EDSALL FERRIER. Edsall Ferrier was born in 1831, at Warwick, N. Y. He graduated with the first honor of his class from Lafayette College, in 1854. After pursuing a theological course in Princeton Seminary, he entered the ministry of the Presbyterian Church. Some years were spent in pastoral labor in New York. His Alma Mater calling for his services, he returned as Tutor and Adjunct Professor of Mathematics. Resigning this post, he became Professor of English Language and Literature in Washington and Jefferson College. The Graefif Professorship of English Language and Literature having been estab- lished in Pennsylvania College, in 1866 Prof. Ferrier became the first incumbent, and continued his connection with the institution till 1872. During the last four years— 1868 to 1872 — he also occupied the position of Vice-President. After resigning his professorship. Prof. Ferrier engaged in pastoral and literary labors. He is still, serving the same charge at Mauch Chunk, residing in Easton, Pa. Lafayette College conferred on him the degree of D. D., in 1881. As a teacher. Prof. Ferrier shows decided skill in presenting clearly and accurately the facts and principles of his department. Conservative in teaching new theories, he is thoroughly familiar with the most advanced and freshest discussion. As a critic. Prof. Ferrier is specially apt. While calling attention to all errors in fact or expres sion, he gives full credit for every merit. E. S. B. JOHN FREDERICK WILKEN. BY REV. PROF. A. M.A.RTIN. Prof..,Wilken was born at Osselse, near Heidelsheim, in Hanover, May the 17, 1810. He studied at the University of Goettingen, and after graduation became family tutor at the Court of the King of Hanover. March 25, 1846, he was ordained to the ministry, and offered his services to an "Association for Preaching Among the Germans in Foreign Lands," and came to the United States. He began his work in East Tennessee, and organized a congregation in Wartburg. Here he labored to the beginning of the civil war in 1861, with very gratifying success. But being forced by the effects of the war to leave his field of labor, he came North, and in 1866 accepted the call to the Professorship of the German Language and Literature in Pennsyvania College. He stayed, however, only two years, and then accepted a call of a congregation in Honesdale, Pa. But in 1872 he yielded to the solicitations ADAM MARTIN & GEORGE FREDERICK SPIEKER. 1 73 of his family and friends, to resign a too laborious field, and because he was unwilling to retire altogether from the work of his life, he accepted a call of the small congregation at Narrowsburg, N. Y. Here he died May 30, 1876. ADAM MARTIN. Adam Martin was born in Biedershausen, near Zweibruecken in the Palatinate, Bavaria. In his early boyhood he came to this country to live with an uncle at Utica, N. Y. After a little over a year's experience in the land of his adoption, he went to Hartwick Seminary, N. Y., to prepare for college. He was graduated at Hamilton College, in the state of New York, in 1858. After studying theology at Hartwick Seminary, he was called to the pastorate of St. Mark's Lutheran Church of Middleburgh, Schoharie Co., N. Y., and in September, 1861, was ordained by the New York Ministerium of the Lutheran Church, at its meeting in Rochester, N. Y. In' the fall of 1865, he was called to the presidency of a new institution then being established by the Wisconsin Synod at Watertown, Wis., and chartered under the title of " Northwestern University." In less than three years this young college was in good organization, having buildings to accommodate over one hundred students, and a very eligible location, besides secured subscriptions of an endowment of over seventy thousand dollars, while the field had not been half canvassed. But by the determination of Synod to change the character of the institution. Prof. Martin felt constrained to resign his position, and in the Spring of 1869 he was nominated by the Ministerium of Pennsylvania to the Professorship of the German Language and Literature in Pennsylvania College. The Board of Trustees confirming this nomina- tion, he accepted the call, and in September of the same year entered on his duties in that position, in which he continues to the present time. GEORGE FREDERICK SPIEKER. BY PROF. H. E. JACOBS, D. D. Mr. Spieker was born in Howard county, Md., November 17, 1844. Graduated with Valedictory at Baltimore High School (now " City College") 1863. Entered Theological Seminary at Gettysburg, the fall of the same year. When Dr. Schaefifer was called to Philadelphia, he filled the German Professorship for two years, the first year by appointment of Ministerium of Pennsylvania, and the second, by appointment of College Board. He was graduated at Philadelphia Seminary in 1867, whence he was called to the Professorship of the German Language and Literature in the Nor- mal School, and pastor of the Lutheran church at Kutztown. The former position he filled for but one year, but still retains his first pastorate. He co-operated in translation of Hutter's Compend of Lutheran Theology, and has published several German tracts. A translation of WiWenhahn's Luther will soon be published. He has also prepared for the press the Lectures on Dogmatic Theology of Dr. C. F. Schaeffer, and has in preparation an original popular life of Luther. DAUGHTERS OF PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE. No institution stands isolated. As the influence of a mother is seen in her chil- dren, so the influence of one literary institution is seen in the establishment and characteristics of other literary institutions. Nearly all the English Lutheran Col- leges in the United States owe to a large degree their existence and their value as educational institutions to men educated at Pennsylvania College. Hence a complete - statement of the work done through the parent institution requires brief notice -of these her daughters. In six instances a member of the Faculty presents the status of his own institution. In other cases, repeated inquiry having brought no response, we do the best possible. Pennsylvania College at this, the golden anniversary of her wedding to higher Christian education^ wishes God's blessings upon her daughters, and hopes that she and they may be useful in the world, that facilities for doing better work may be afforded to each, and that all may be faithful and successful in the future, surpassing the past of which we are not ashamed. WITTENBERG COLLEGE. T?Y PROF. H. R. GEIGER, PH. D. This institution is in connection with that branch of the Evangelical Lutheran Church represented by the "General Synod of the United States," and originated in tlie religious and educational wants of the Lutheran Church in the West. Having in view this twofold object, the members of the English Synod of Ohio, November, 1842, Resolved, " That in reliance on the Triune Jehovah, and alone for his honor and glory, we do now establish a Literary and Theological Institution." This action of the English Synod was, in the following year, endorsed by similar action in the Miami Synod ; but as this was a great work for the small synods, it was nearlyi two years before any measure was taken to elect professors and open the school for the reception of pupils. Ezra Keller, D. D., a graduate of Pennsylvania College, class of '35, was chosen the first President of the new College. Dr. Keller opened the Grammar School of the Institution November 3, 1845, i"^ the lecture room of the English Lutheran Church of Springfield, O. The attendance on the first day of the session was eight students, and a Faculty of one professor and two tutors. The number of students was increased to 70 before the close of the first year, and to 143 during the second year. Three years of steady progress passed without any unusual occurrence in the history of the institution ; but the fourth year opened with an event which filled the hearts of the friends of the infant college with deep anxiety and profound sadness. After a brief illness, the summons of death (174) WITTENBERG COLLEGE. 1/5 came to the first President of the Institution, in the midnight hours of December 29, 1848. He was called away from his most arduous labors and in the prime of his life; he died in the 37th year of his age. In the first session of the school, Mr. Joseph Welty, of Tuscarawas county, O., and Mr. P. G. Sauerwein ('42 of Pennsylvania College), of Baltimore, Md., were associated with Dr. Keller as teachers in Mathe- matics and Languages. Upon their withdrawal in the spring of 1846, H. R. Geiger and Michael Diehl, both graduates of Pennsylvania College, were chosen professors in the institution. After the death of Dr. Keller, Rev. Samuel Sprecher, then pastor of the First English Lutheran church at Chambersburg, Pa., was elected to the presi- dency. He was publicly inducted to the chair of Christian Theology in the Seminary, and installed as President of the College, August 14th, 1849. I" '^^ y^^^" 1850, Isaac Sprecher ('51 of Penn'a College) and a nephew of Dr. Sprecher, became connected with the institution, at first as Principal of the Preparatory Department, and later as Professor of Ancient Languages, which he resigned at the close of the collegiate year of 1877. To Dr. Sprecher,* Profs. Diehl and Isaac Sprecher, teachers long identified with Wittenberg College, the Lutheran Church and the patrons of the College at Springfield and elsewhere, owe a debt of gratitude for their devotion to the cause of higher education, and to the general interest and welfare of Wittenberg College, through its darkest hours and its long years of struggle and weakness. In failing health, Prof. Diehl resigned the Chair of Ancient Languages in 1868, to which he had been chosen in 1846. After the lapse of scarcely a year he was borne to his burial, honored, beloved, and lamented by all who knew him. From 1873 ""^il 1880, J. H. W. Stuckenberg, a graduate of the class of 1859, was associated with Dr. Sprecher in the Theological Department. Upon the resignation of Dr. Stuckenberg, Rev. S. A. Ort, class of 1863, was chosen to the thus vacated chair of Sacred Philology. Among those associated with the Faculty of the College, during the history of the institution, we find the names of Rev. J. G. Harris, F. W. Conrad, D. D., present Editor of the Lutheran Obseii'er, Professor of Sacred Rhetoric and Pastoral The- ology from 1849 'o 1854; in 1855 Rev. A. Essick was Professor of Natural Sciences; and Joel Swartz, D. D., was Professor of Church History, Homiletics, and Pastoral Theology, 1865-7. Rev. S. A. Ort was, for a few years Assistant Professor of Mathematics, and upon his resignation in 1874, Rev. .S. F. Breckenridge, class of i860, was chosen Professor of Mathematics. In June, 1874, after a quarter of a century of arduous and successful labor at the head of the institution. Dr. Sprecher resigned its presidency in order to devote his time more fully to the writing of theo- logical works, long contemplated by himself, constantly urged by his friends, and long also a felt want in that branch of the Lutheran church in which he is, beyond question, the most profound theologian and eminent teacher. Upon the resignation of Dr. Sprecher, Rev. J. B. Helwig, of the class of 1861, pastor of the First English Lutheran church of Dayton, O., was elected to the presidency of the College. The present Faculty are : J. B. Helwig, D. D., President, and Profes.sor of Moral Science and Political Economy. Samuel Sprecher, D. D., LL. D., Professor of Systematic Theology. S. A. Ort, D. D., Professor of Sacred Philology and Mental Philo-sophy, since 1880. H. R. Geiger, A. M., Ph. D., Professor of Natural Sciences, since 1846. * Prof. Geiger's name should be included here. — Editor. .176 DAUGHTERS OF PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE. B. F. Prince, A. AL, Professor of Greek and History (including service as Princi- pal of Preparatorj) since 1866. S. F. Breckenridge, A. M., Professor of Alathematics and Logic, since 1874. G. H. Young, A. M., Principal of the Preparatory Department, since 1S74. W. S. Hoskinson, A. M., Tutor. H. C. Stuckenberg, A. M., Teacher of German. The average number of students in the various departments of the Institution, beginning with the second year of its history, is about no. Last year's catalogue numbers iSi. In 1874, the College was opened to females : since that time at least 60 young ladies have availed themselves of its advantages. Two have graduated from the College, and thi'ee of the College classes have now one or more females pursuing the regular collegiate course. There are two Literary Societies connected with the Institution, the Excelsior and the Philosophian. Their libraries, with that of the College, contain eight thousand volumes. The Cabinets contain many fine min- eral and geological specimens. The Philosophical apparatus is sufficient to illustrate all the general facts and laws of Physics. The Chemical Laboratory is well fitted for all necessary experiments and analytical work. Wittenberg College was founded in prayer and religious consecration, and from its origin until the present time, religious services have been steadily maintained in the Institution. The present endowment of the Institution, in available funds, is one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. The real estate of the College, in buildings and grounds, is valued at about fifty thousand dollars. While students have been in attendance from all parts of the country, Wittenberg College has drawn her endowment contributions and students, principally from Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Kentucky. ROANOKE COLLEGE. BY PROF. S. C. WELLS, PH. D. The establishment of Pennsylvania College and its success produced a marked effect in pi-omoting the cause of higher education in the Lutheran Church. To its influence can be directly traced the establishment of many other institutions — univer- sities, colleges and high schools — which have since cooperated with it in filling the ranks of the ministry, in inspiring more intelligent vie\\'S of -the history, doctrines and status of the Church, and in promoting the cause of sound education in general in the States in which they have been planted. Among these, the first fruits of the parent institution, it is our part to sketch the establishment and history of Roanoke College, Virginia. In 1842 Rev. D. F. Bittle, an alumnus of Pennsylvania College, during his mins- trj- in Augusta county ,^^a., united with Rev. C. C. Baughman, another alumnus, in the establishiiient of " Virginia College Institute," Augusta county, with a view to fur- nish better facilities for higher education within the bounds of the Virginia Synods. This was at fii^st a private enterprise, but was adopted by those synods in 1843. The Institute enjoyed a moderate success, and through the active agency of Dr. Bittle in soliciting aid and cooperation for it in the Shenandoah valley, much ROANOKE COLLEGE. I 77 good was accomplished. But the location was an undesirable one, and in 1847 *^ was moved to Salem, Virginia, in the beautiful and fertile valley enclosed by the Blue Ridge and Allegheny mountains. Here so much vigor was developed, and so much encouragement was felt in its prospects, that a college charter was applied for and obtained at the session of Virginia Legislature 1852-3. In September of the latter year the College was organized with Dr. D. F. Bittle, President, and S. C. Wells, Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy, as representatives of the alumni of Pennsylvania College. This representation has been increased and con- tinued from time to time by the election of Rev. D. H. Bittle, D. D., to the chair of Ancient Languages; Rev. J. B. Davis, D. D., to that of Natural Sciences, and Rev. T. W. Dosh, D. D., to its presidency in 1877 — making to the present day an unin- terrupted succession of Pennsylvania College alumni as workers within its halls, The scope of instruction, method and general arrangements have been naturally very similar to those of Pennsylvania College. This was the case more particularly during its earlier years. The general attendance in college has been from seventy to one hundred and eighty students, the number for the last few years being very uni- formly about a mean of the limits given. As results of its work, it has graduated one hundred and eighty-six students and given the benefit of its courses of study, more or less partially, to a large number of them. Of its alumni, about one-third have entered the ministry of our own and other churches. This number has been increased by many who have taken partial courses, giving the College representatives among a large number of the younger and more active members of the Lutheran Church in Virginia and adjacent states. Its alumni are also, and have been, represented in its own faculty. Theological Seminary, Newberry, North Carolina, and Drury College, Mo., Staunton, Wythe- ville, Marion, Burkettsville, Lutherville Female College and Seminary, as al.so in other educational works, in the professions. State and National Councils, and in the intelligent service of State and Church in other departments. Roanoke College, therefore, from considerations of origin, traditions, its alumni representatives, its common work, sends heartiest greetings to Pennsylvania College on the interesting occasion of its semi-centennial, with best wishes for its continued prosperity and success.

This Institution grew out of a classical school connected with the Theological Seminary at Lexington, S. C. The Institution began operation at Newberry, S. C, in i860, organization having been effected in 1858, after over ten years discussion. T. Stork, D. D., ('35 Pennsylvania College) was President, and J. A. Brown, D. D., ('42 Pennsylvania College) was the first Professor of Ancient Languages. The civil war shortly after caused the disbanding of the school. Work was resumed after the close of the war, and in 1868 the Institution was removed to Walhalla, returning, how- ever, to Newberry in 1876. J. P. Smeltzer, D. D., ('46 Pennsylvania College) was President from 1861-77. C. A. Stork, D. D., and Rev. J. F. Probst, former students of Pennsylvania College, have been Professors in the Institution. In 1880-81 the Faculty consisted of five Professors and Principal of preparatory department, forty-four College students and sixty-eight preparatorians, with an alumni since 1869 of thirty, two of whom are in the Faculty of their Alma Mater. E. s. B. NORTH CAROLINA COLLEGE. BY REV. PROF. P. U. BIKI.E. North Carolina College, Blount Pleasant, N. C, is an outgrowth of the Western Carolina Male Academy, which was in successful operation, under the Principalship of W. Gerhart, D. D., '41, from 1854 to 1S58. In the latter year it was chartered as a College, and gave promise of a successful future. A financial agent was put in the field, who secured enough money by December, i860, to pay for two new buildings and a residence for the President, besides $20,000 as the beginning of an endowment fund. -The opening of the civil war put an end to all efforts to increase this fund, and, in the summer of 1861, the College was closed. D. H. Bittle, D. D., '43, was President from 1858 to i86i, and associated with him were Professors L. A. Bikle, D. D., and Rev. G. F. Schaefter, both of '57, the former being elected in 1859, and the latter in i860. Half of the endowment fund was invested in Confederate bonds, and half in North Carolina bonds. The former, of course, vanished with the Con- federacy, and the latter were greatly reduced in value. Whether the institution has ever received the principal or any interest from the State, we do not know. In 1866, L. A. Bikle, D. D., was re-elected by the Trustees, and, with the excep- tion of two or three years, has ever since been in connection with the institution, either as one of its professors or its President. Rev. P. M. Bikle, '66, was Professor of Latin and Greek during the collegiate year 1 869-' 70. The other professors were drawn from other colleges. The highest. number of students for any year has been 132; it now has about So. We estimate that 700 students have been on its rolls from the beginning, but not more than 40 of these have been graduated. It has four good buildings, is healthfully located, and has done a good work ; its debt is only $700, but it is virtually without endowment, and nine miles distant from the nearest railroad station.

Entered Pre- paratory 1845. Graduated aged 21 years. Philomathaean. March, 1853, began his connection with the Pennsylvania Railroad as clerk in Superintendent's oflrce at Altoona, Pa. May, 1S55, became Assistant General Ticket Agent, Harrisburg, Pa. Afterward located in Philadelphia, filling a responsible position, serving as General Ticket Agent from 1872 till his death. The estimate placed on his services is in- dicated in the statement made in the official notice of his death : " In his ofiftcial rela- tions he was conscientious and faithful in the discharge of his duties, and possessed the confidence and esteem of his associates." Both by word and deed, Mr. Stecher proved himself a staunch, true and tried friend of Pennsylvania College. At the time of his death he was a member of the Committee of Arrangements for the Semi-Centennial, and was an earnest and enthu- siastic friend and advocate of every suitable means for promoting the honor and suc- cess of Alma Mater. Ever ready to do the under-graduates kindly favors, they will continue to cherish his name and memory as the friend and helper of those seeking a higher education. All will regret that " Reminiscences of a College Life," by Tele- phone, in the Pennsylvania College Monthly, were cut short so suddenly and perma- nently, and that his ready pen was not permitted to add other paragraphs of wit and hymor to the recollections of life in Pennsylvania College for this volume. At the time of his death Mr. Stecher was a member and trustee of St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Ardmore, from which place he was buried, February 19, 1880. His funeral was attended by a large number of railroad employees and officials, who bore him regretfully and tenderly to his quiet resting-place beneath the shades of the beautiful and hallowed Mount Moriah.

Editor at Butler, Pa. J3 NON-GRADUATE FORMER STUDENTS. In this portion of the Record of Former Students we have been compelled, in order to secure space, to use the following abbreviations : The years during which each student has been in attendance on the institution are given immediately after the name of the place of birth, or of residence at the time of entrance. The first date is that of the beginning of the collegiate year during which the individual entered the institution ; the second date is that of the close of the collegiate year during which he left. The letter or letters following indicate the class or department in which he. was reciting at the time of leaving. Thus " 39— 43 Soph." written fully would appear " Entered during the collegiate year 1S39-1840, and left during the collegiate year 1S42-1843, while a member of the Sophomore class." The exact time or term of entrance or withdrawal is known in very few cases ; the lai-ger number, particularly of those in attendance on the college classes, entered at the beginning of and withdrew at the close of a collegiate year. In the special list of those who were only in connection with the Preparatory Department, no class designation has been given. The class or department entered by the student on his first connection with the institution is easily determined from the data given. Two sets of dates given signify an absence during the period covered by the dates omitted: thus, 38-40, 41-3, show an absence during the year 1S40-1841. The last locality mentioned, unless otherwise designated, is in most cases the present residence, in the other cases the last known residence. A. B.. M. D , LL. B., placed before the name of another institution, signifies grad- uation with such degree in the institution mentioned and at the date given. Adm. signifies admitted. B. or b. " born, generally with date of birth. p. or d. " death, or died at the date given. Delta " member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. Ent. '■ entered. F. " member of the Freshman Class, f. - " from.

D1S.A.STER and defeat had once more overwhelmed the Army of the Potomac, and, from the bloody field of far-off Chancellorville, the Union forces had recoiled dis- heartened and dismayed. On the contrary, the Confederate Army of Northern Vir- ginia, under the command of General Lee, flushed with victory, after a brief respite, surged through the mountain passes, and, entering the Shenandoah Valley, over- powered Milroy at Winchester, and on the 15th of June, 1863, pushed its advanced avalry across the Potomac. It was the sting of this Parthian dart that awakened the oyal people of the great North to a realizing sense of a sharply -impending peril. On that day (June 15th), President Lincoln called upon the Governors of the loyal States for 50,000 volunteers to assist in repelling this threatened invasion. This was supplemented by General Order No. 43, issued by Gov. Curtin, calling upon the people of Pennsylvania to arm for the emergency, and promising transportation to Harrisburg to such organizations as should offer their services. Due notice thereof reached Gettysburg by noon of the ensuing day (June i6th), and the demands and dangers of the hour were warmly discussed by the students of Pennsylvania College, as, after their noonday meal, they congregated, as their custom was, in front of Buehler's book-store. The quiet, peaceful, uneventful current of student-life had met with a rude shock. It was like awaking from a dream of fancied security to the full measure of a threatening public danger. Brave words, nobly spoken, were added fuel to the patriotic fire smouldering in each loyal heart. The time for decisive action had come. It matters not how, nor can the writer now recall, whose was the moving spirit around which crystallized into a living force the deep feelings of the hour. It is enough to say that a call for volunteers was posted in Buehler's book-store ; that student^after student appended his name to that roll of honor, until within the short space of a few hours, fifty-seven students (of whom four were from the Seminary) had enrolled their names, and thus made a formal tender of their services to the Governor of the State for the then existing emergency. The complete roll will be found in President Valentine's article, in this volume. It is proper to say here that Rev. W. E. Parson, of Washington, D. C, states that this movement had its inception at an informal gathering in front of Horner's drug- store — a statement not disputed, for it is not impossible that the same brave, patriotic purpose may have flashed through half a dozen minds at the same time. It was the magnetic, unifying influence of a common impulse in the face of a common danger. It is just possible that, as the lights and shadows of well-nigh a score of years have toyed with the fitful memories of the busy actors in that early drama', this matter will (420) SKETCH OF CO. " A," 26tH REGT., PEXXA. MILITIA. 42 I remain forever in dispute; but the writer's mind is firmly fixed that the statement, as first given, is correct. The die had been cast, and the Rubicon of patriotic purpose had been crossed '. In a body the .signers to the roll marched to the College, and made known their deter- mination. Dr. Baugher, then President, addressed the embrjotic heroes, counseling discretion, and advising an immediate return to their collegiate duties. Placed in a paternal capacity over them, he could not well do otherwise, brave and patriotic though he was; and it is a fair presumption that his own heart, wrung as it had been, but a short twelve-month before, by the death of a dear son at the battle of Shiloh, felt all the more keenly the grave responsibility that would rest upon him, if, in this emergency, he should lightly consent to yield his better judgment to the demands of a loft)' patriotism. No man could ever doubt Dr. Baugher's loyalty. It was unques- tioned and unquestionable I Wise though his counsel may have been, yet no human agency could have stayed the ardor of the .students. The command of the Company was tendered to Prof. F. A. Muhlenberg, who declined for the reason that its acceptance would interfere with the discharge of his official duties at the College. The Company was then drawn up in front of Linnaean Hall. Officers were elected and the organization completed, when its services were offered to Gov. Curtin, accepted, and transportation ordered for the ensuing day. The students dispersed, each to make his preparations for the eventful morrow. EacTi was treading upon the ragged edge of a near future, deeply shadowed by un- certainty and doubt. That the Rebel army was on its onward march, that its ad- vance had cro.ssed the Potomac— these were stublxirn facts. The shades of evening gathered around scenes which, ere they should return, would echo with the tread of contending hosts, the roar of cannon, and the sharp rattle of mu.sketn,'. Wednesday morning, June 17th, came, but with it there was no abatement of the war fever. The Company gathered in the Diamond was briefly, but pertinently, addressed by Prof. Muhlenberg, who endeavored to impress upon each and all the demands of an enlightened patriotism. He counseled to a faithful discharge of ever>- dut}-, that they might prove an honor to the State, to Pennsylvania College, and to themselves. With his parting injunction ringing in their ears, the boys are off for Harrisburg. About six miles from Gettysburg, near Gulden's Station, occurred the first mishap; going at the rate of fifteen miles an hour, the cars ran off the track, and the rough jolting of iron wheels over wooden sleepers shakes the patriotism out of a few faint hearts, and hastens their return to peaceful Gettysburg. But again on the way, with- out further accident, the Company reaches Harrisburg, is promptly sent to Camp Curtin, and finds the whole camp in an uproar. Thousands of men are unwilling to be mustered in under the conditions named— to be sworn into the U. S. .ser\-ice and to ser\e for " the emergency ;" the former condition placing those so enlisted under the control of the U. S. Government for use wherever they might be needed — the latter, " emergency," being a term of doubtful interpretation. The College Company, impelled by the one overma-stering desire to serve their country, waived all condi- tions, and were at once sworn into the service of the United States. The patriotic example so bravely and cheerfully set, exercised a powerful influence upon other organizations in inducing them to pursue the same course. The prompt action of 422 SKETCH OF CO. " A," 26tH REGT., PENNA. MILITIA. the College Company led to the concession of the post of honor to them in the first regiment organized under the " emergency'" call. It became Co. "A," 26th Regt., Pa. Mil, After being mustered into the service, the company was assigned quarters in some tents already pitched, near the railroad. Government rations were also furnished them, and rare was the culinary skill displayed by many of the students. Night came at last ! and A\'ho of that brave company will ever forget the first night in Camp Curtin ? The wild pranks of " boys let loose from school," the practical jokes, the college songs, the loud laughter, the genial uproar of hearty good-fel- lowship, lasting long into the night. And some will perchance recall the coarse song and coarser jest of neighbors less refined. But "silence came," at last, " to heal the blows of sound." By many the weary night was spent in the vain endeavor to find the soft side of a boai^d, of all things in the world unlike a bed of down ; others, worn out by the fatigue of the day, wooed refreshing sleep, to be broken only by the rushing trains as they bore fresh defenders to the capital of the impei-illed State. After midnight came the fierce crash of heaven's artillery, the vivid lightning, and the descending torrent, and Company "A" had its first brief lesson of war's dis- comforts, in aching limbs and well-soaked clothing. The morning of June i8th dawned bright and clear, and with the break of day the College boys emerged from their tents, in vain essaying to make themselves com- fortable and presentable after a miserable night. What futile efforts to make " natty" toilets, perishing in their inception ! On this day some additional members of Com- pany "A" were mustered into the service. The monotony of the next few days of camp life was relieved by the drawing of uniforms and the arming of the company. Then also the hearts of the boys were gladdened by visits from warm friends. The drawing of uniforms was a sight never to be forgotten. Every man drew a prize — as unlike what he would have as could be. How those suits did fit! How the useless effort was made to crowd a No. 13 foot into a No. 6 shoe ; and how the biggest man in the company in vain essayed to get his huge proportions into the smallest suit ! How the long, lank, thin student paraded before his armed comrades in the short, stumpy suit made for a man 5 feet 4 inches tall ! But by dint of a lively system of exchange, the absurdities of dress were rectified. Each day now witnessed repeated drills in the manual of arms, and a patient striv- ing after discipline. Rev. Chas. A. Hay, of Harrisburg, visited the boys in camp, furnished each with a Testament, and invited them to attend service in his church on the ensuing Sabbath, June 21st, which they did. On Tuesday evening, June 23d, it was announced that a forward movement was in- tended on the ensuing day. Rations and ammunition were distributed in such a man- ner and such quantity as to indicate beyond question that earnest, dangerous work was apprehended. The morning of June 24th found the boys ready for the march. The cars were taken at Harrisburg, and the regiment sped on its way aci'oss the river, southward along the Susquehanna, toward Gettysburg, now well known to every one to be its destination. At Hanover Junction the train was divided into two sections, and pressed forward without incident until within six miles of Gettysburg, near Swift Run, SKETCH OF CO. " A," 26tH REGT., PEXNA. MILITIA. 423 when the forward section ran over an unromantic cow, the result being that the loco- motive was thrown off the track. This stopped any further advance for the day. The Regiment disembarked from the cars, and camped in a woods on the north side of the railroad. During the next day the Regiment was busily engaged in drilling in a cleared field to the south of the railway. Rumors of the approach of the Rebel forces reached us, and in the evening there was a call for one hundred picked men, ten from each company, to go as scouts towards the mountains beyond Gettysburg, and there harass such Rebel detachments as might be moving down their eastern slopes. The storm of the ensuing night put a stop to this projected movement, the scouting party getting no farther than Gettysburg, where it rested for the night. With the morning of Friday, June 26th, came fresh orders to advance, and break- ing up our camp in the woods, in the midst of a pouring rain, we took the cars for Gettysburg, reaching there about 9 a. m., and being joined by the scouting party of the night before. Here the good citizens of Gettysburg pro\'ided us most bountifully with hot coffee, pies, sandwiches, etc. Language cannot do justice to the kind word* and kinder deeds of its hospitable inhabitants. As soon as the regiment reached Gettysburg, Col. Jennings, commanding the force, called upon Major Haller, who, by virtue of his commission in the regular army, was the ranking officer, for instructions. Not- withstanding the remonstrance of Col. Jennings, who was well aware, from reliable information previously furnished, that the Rebels were steadily advancing. Major Haller ordered the 26th Regt. to move out the Chambersburg pike to Marsh Creek, thus thrusting a body of raw and comparatively undisciplined troops into the very jaws of the advancing Confederates. The order was obeyed. Through Gettysburg, with steady, martial tread, moved this solitary Regiment — one man against a score of Rebel veterans. Out the pike for three miles, meeting refu- gees at every step, through a drizzling rain, it marched ; then its course was deflected sharply to the north of the pike, across an open field for a few hundred yards, into a thick woods, where it was ordered to stack arms and pitch its tents. Scarcely had the word passed along the line, when the boys of Co. " A" fell to work — some pitch- ing their shelter-tents, others scattering through the woods in search of dry leaves, brush, and newly-made shingles, of which latter an abundance was to be found. As soon as the camp was formed a lieutenant with twenty men. Privates Henry and Hill being taken from Co. " A," were sent forward beyond Marsh Creek to act as pickets, and to give to the Regiment early warning of the approach of any hostile force. This precaution being taken. Col. Jennings and Adjutant McKnight started for Gettysburg to receive further orders, but were soon overtaken by Major Bell, of the Independent .Scouts, who, addressing the Colonel, exclaimed with much emphasis: " Colonel, the Rebels are in force within three-fourths of a mile of your regiment, and are coming rapidly." There was no need to go to Gettysburg ! The supreme ne- cessity was to save the regiment from capture. With hot haste the Colonel and Ad- jutant retraced their steps, and the command, "Fall in! fall in!" went sharply along the line of tents. There was something in the tone of command that brooked no delay, and within a few moments tents were down and arms taken, and the regi- ment on its march to the north and east through woodland and forest. The regiment 424 SKETCH OF CO. " A," 26tH REGT., PENNA. MILITIA. could not have been camped in the woods more than half an hour before the alarm was given. (The author of this sketch distinctly remembers that having left his messmates to pitch the tent, he wandered westward through the woods in search of some of some of those coveted shingles — and how, upon coming back within a brief period, he found the camp silent and deserted, with here and there a musket or a discarded haversack. The truth flashed. through his mind as an intuition, and hastily grasping a musket, he stood not upon the order of his going, but went at once after the retreating regiment, now out of sight. Thanks to a good pair of legs and a wholesome dread of Lil:)by, he overtook the regiment.) The safety of the regiment depended solely upon the celerity with which it moved. Fearing that the Rebels might be advancing on the Mummasburg road as well as on the Chambersburg pike, Col. Jennings, private Baugher acting as guide, rapidly led the regiment beyond it, and striking the Hunterstown road, followed it until at Bailey's Hill the advance of the Rebel cavalry came in sight and commenced firing upon the regiment. The Colonel ordered the regiment to move off to the right of the road into an open field and take position behind a worm-fence, there to receive the charge of the cavalry, if they were inclined to attack, and to return their fire. After a brief skirmish, in which neither party sustained any loss in killed or wounded, the Rebels retired. From an eye-witness, E. L. Rowe, esq., of Emmitts- burg, it has been satisfactorily ascertained that the regiment fired too high, their bul- lets passing over the heads of the Rebels, but whistling in unpleasant proximity to those of our comrades who had been taken prisoners. He further states that the advancing Rebel cavalry were dressed in blue overcoats, and were at first mistaken for Union troops This skirmish impressed the colonel with the necessity of using every endeavor to get beyond the Rebel advance. Leaving the fence along which we had been sta- tioned, we retreated rapidly, avoiding the public highways, lest we should fall in with the Rebel cavalry. About nightfall we rested in a woods and called the roll, and found that many of Co. "A." were missing. Prone upon the ground, and caiitioned to absolute silence, we could hear the Rebel scouts as they passed along an adjacent road, no doubt in searchf of the escaping regiment. As the shadows of the night deepened, we resumed our weary tramp. About ten o'clock at night we crossed the Big Conewago on a foot log, Co. "A" in the advance. Whilst the regiment was crossing the clattering hoofs of approaching horses were heard, and it was feared the Rebel cavalry had overtaken us. In the panic that momentarily ensued, some of Co. "A"^ were thrown from the foot-log into the stream. Co. "A" formed along the farther side of the stream to meet the supposed enemy, and for their coolness re- ceived the commendation of Lieutenant-Colonel Jenkins. In the excitement the two rear companies became separated from the rest of the regiment, and crossed the stream lower down. Later in the night was heard the advance of marching men, and then the stern challenge, "Halt: who comes there?" "Friends," replied the colonel. The voice of the colonel was recognized by the challenger, (Lieut. Hinkle with the two companies,) and where just before there had been doubt, dismay, and an ominous crashing of inoffensive rails, order was restored and the march resumed. This episode nettled our brave colonel, and led him to use language certainly more forcible than polite. SKETCH OF CO. " A," 26tH REGT., PENNA. MILITIA. 425 About midnight the regiment halted along a worm-fence in an open field for an hour. From this point we could distinctly hear the sound of a Rebel bugle, borne to us through the oppressive stillness of that summer night. Scouts were sent out to ascertain our position, and whether it would be safe to advance. With their return and an injunction to absolute silence, as the enemy was known to be near at hand, the regiment moved forward, and rested for an hour by the roadside at 3 a. m., Saturday morning, June 27th. To every weary soldier that sleep on the damp ground came like the "sleep of the just." Dawn found the regiment pushing forward across fields and through woodland, until, near Petersburg, it camped for a few hours for needed rest and food. The time was not idly spent, for the guns that had been rendered un- serviceable by the heavy rains of the day fcefore, were carefully cleaned for deadly use. It was cool preparation for hot work. The wearj' troops, refreshed by kindly hands, in the afternoon resumed their march for Harrishurg. Near Dill.sburg word came that the enemy were advancing, and would probably meet us there. The regi- ment was promptly formed across the public road in two lines of battle, the front rank of each kneeling, with bayonets fixed, to receive the expected cavalry charge. The alann was false, and, with company front, we passed through Dillsburg, to halt half a mile beyond in an advantageous position on a high hill. This movement was observed by the Rebel advance from a distance, and the position occupied by them a few hours afterwards. That night the regiment encamped on the farther .shore of V'ellow Breeches Creek for a few hours. Company "A" being thrown out as pickets. Before day we were again on the march, with skirmishers in advance of the regiment. Here an alarm was cau.sed by a few random shots, fired at some belated swain on horseback, who at the command, " Halt ! " failed to do so. Darkness still around us, we passed through Siddonstown. The gray of a quiet Sabbath morning found us in Lisbon, much to the surprise of its inhabitants. At noon we reached New Cum- berland, within sight of Harri.sburg, and ere the evening shades had gathered, we were safely camped behind the frowning guns of Fort Washington. Here we were located upon the side of a hill, at an incline of about 45 degrees, passing the night without shelter, and sleeping only on what we had saved in our wear)' flight. The morning proved that we had illustrated the law of gravity by sliding down an in- clined plane to near its base. As for the rest, the career of Company " A" was uneventful. The night that the Carlisle Barracks were burned it did picket duty along the river, towards New Cum- berland, to intercept and hold at bay any hostile force that might attempt, in the darkness, to destroy the Harrishurg bridge. Subsequently it guarded the railroad near Bridgeport, picked up Rebel stragglers, and ultimately the regiment was sent down the Cumberland Valley as far as Greencastle. Each and all of Company "A" can readily recall that hot midsummer march from Shippensburg to Chambersburg ; the big spring at the camp beyond the latter place; the camp at Greencastle ; the daily drill and dress parade ; the return ; the few days sport at Bridgeport; the muster-out — and " The Emergency" was a thing of the dead — but unforgotten — past. To his comrades of Company " A," and all others who have kindly furnished fact and incident for the preparation of this sketch, the writer desires to return his cordial thanks. He can only regret that the limit fixed for this article prevents the Intro- 426 SKETCH OF CO. " A," 26tH REGT., PENNA. MILITIA. duction of many incidents of an interesting character, affecting individual members of Company "A." Tlie experience of Privates Ziegenfuss, Henry, Hill, Fegley ("Birdie"), Rowe ("Shorty"), Morrison, and others, as prisoners; the phmge-bath of Corporal Pritchard; the tricks of the boys ; the story of the conscripted team ; the open-handed libei-ality of the good citizens of Petersburg, Dillsburg, Lisbon, and New Cumberland, to troops suffering for want of rations ; all these would form a volume, and a volume we do not write. Let some other hand, with facile touch, gather these scattered strands of the narrative, and mould them into " thoughts that breathe and words that burn," MEMORABILIA. I HAVK chosen this title as sufficiently loose to embrace all, and sufficiently signifi- cant to define all the contributions that might be offered for this part of tlic College book. Though less has come into my hands than would be necessary to set forth distinctly and adequately those days of old, in which the foundations of our Alma Afah'?- wtrt laid, it is pleasant to record that the memories of the older Alumni seem to have been especially stimulated, and thus the very recollections, that must soon have been hushed, will now continue to speak to the younger Alumni, the coming Alumni, for many years to come; and the younger men, after time shall have en- riclicd and experience chastened their memories, will have their opportunity when some future anniversary of the College shall again call for contributions to her " Memorabilia." As to the order of the documents, I have chosen the chronological. It is the simplest. I have allowed the contributors to speak for themselves. This seemed the most satisfactory. By adopting this method, each contributor becomes a colal^orer, sharing both in the honors and in the responsibilities of these reminiscences. So far as I have exercised the privilege of abridgment and the duty of excision, it has Ijcen in the interest of unity, and for the ]3reservatif)n of the history of the College rather than the biograjjhy of the individual. I hope my ])urpose, if not its execution, will meet the favorable judgment of all. I have given large room to names and dates. These are of the essence of history, and ]-)ossess a power of .stimulating the recollections, as well as of rectifying them, that no quasi-historical work even can afford to neglect. Contributions of this kind are necessarily fragmentary, and exposed to errors of time, particularly in the sequence of events. The fragmentariness of one narrator will often be complemented by the fragments of another ; and when one has deranged dates, another will set him right. Here and there I have allowed myself the editorial prerogative of adding a few notes, a few prefatory remarks, and — excepting Dr. Mil- ler's paper — I have put titles to the contents of some of the paragraphs. The hand- ling of these records has warmed my heart towards the College. Her white walls now rise before me pure and stately as the Parthenon. If these pages are read in the sjiirit in which they have been written, I am persuaded they will reli.sh so well, that your only demand will be — Oliver Twist's — more ! and the poor editor, like the poor steward, can only look surprised and grieved, and say — Benevolent readers ! the Metnorabilia are before you. Sezijickley, Pa., April 14^ 1882. J. B. Bittingkr. (427) 428 MEMORABILIA. EARLY HISTORY OF PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE. " The nucleus from which Pennsylvania College has grown was the ' Gettysburg Academy,' which was incorporated by the Legislature by the act of March 19th, 1810 (see Pamphlet Laws of 1809-10, page 136). The law appointed eight trustees, and their successors were to be elected by the people of the county. The state ap- propriated two thousand dollars (^2,000) to this academy, of which ^1,000 was to be applied to the erection of a building, and $1,000 put to interest to assist in compensat- ing a teacher. As only five of the eight trustees signed the draft for the money, a supplemental act was procured March 31, 181 2, to remedy the irregularity, and another sujDplement dated March 24th, 1817, repealed the clause requiring $1,000 to be kept on interest to support the teacher. Gettysburg must have been a small vil- lage in those days. The first county buildings were erected in 1803 (see act accept- ing them dated March 26, 1804), the county having been formed in 1800. " I can find no law incorporating the ' Gettysburg Gymnasium,' and I think it never was incorporated as such; but I understood from my father that the Academy became in debt, and its property was sold by the sheriff. The county records will show this, if it was so. It was purchased by individuals, who contributed the necessary funds, and who organized a classical school called the ' Gettysburg Gymnasium,' which was first taught by David Jacobs, afterwards by him and Michael Jacobs, and after David Jacobs' death H. L. Baugher took his, place. "J. Macfarlane." The subsequent growth of the Gymnasium into Pennsylvania College is re- counted elsewhere by President Valentine and Dr. Schmucker. In the following papers of Brown, Hay, Suman, and Miller, we are introduced into the interior' workings of the institution. There were " commons" in those early days. The custom had come down from medieval times, when learning and religion and poverty went very frequently in company. A common table was cheaper than a private table. It could be combined with abstemiousness and piety ; and it is spirit- ually edifying to look at the long benches and narrow tables in the old refectories of Europe, and think how they united spare diet with high thinking and humble piety ; but we doubt whether poverty and piety ever showed better in those brave days of old, than they have often shown in less conspicuous places in our days — as witness the picture sketched of the sainted Harrison, by his "chum." There were many such mar- tyrs in those days, as Hai-key's Recollections also attest. The College was poor, the Professors were poor, and most of the students were poor. Well do I recall the meagre furniture and threadbaix wardrobes of that time. The "gay clothing" of a few of the boys often put to shame the wearers of " the vile raiment." In that day there were only two gold watches in all Pennsylvania College. Well might such impecuniousness breed thoughts of rebellion at the charge of 12^-^ cents extra for " the cleaning of the rooms." It is pleasant to think, though hard to believe, that when this impost was taken from the rooms, and added to the table, the generousness of the diet proportionately increased. It is pleasant to add that the $i.Sy)4 pei' week included washing and mending ; and well do I remember making personal appeals, and not in vain, to Mother Aughinbaugh for additional buttons, and for the greater permanency of those already in position. " Darning" was also done, if it was not " nominated in the bond." MEMORABILIA. 429 EXTRACTS FROM A PAPER BY JAS. A. BROWN, WYTHEVILLE, VA. " I entered the preparatory department of Pennsylvania College in the year 1835, when the old Academy building was still occupied. It stood on the outskirts of the town of Gettysburg, and had but little appearance of a college. It contained but four rooms, all of which were daily occupied. There was no boarding department and no provision made for boarders, except that candidates for the ministry were al- lowed to board in the Seminary building, located half a mile distant. No one unac- quainted with the facts would suppose that the institution which has the reputation which Pennsylvania College has secured, had its origin in that humble building. And yet at that time this was the only school of importance in the Lutheran Church of this country. Wittenberg, Roanoke, Selinsgrove, Carthage, etc., were not yet in existence. " The number of students at this time was a,bout one hundred. The Faculty con- sisted of Dr. Krauth, Profs. Baugher and Jacobs in the College proper, whilst Profs. Reynolds and Heisly had charge of the Preparatory Department. A better set of men could not have been found in the Lutheran Church, and perhaps a more compe- tent Faculty could not have been found in the state of Pennsylvania. Each one seemed to be the right man in the right place — Christian gentlemen in the highest sense of the term, beloved by the students, and revered and respected by the whole community. And, with the exception of Prof. Heisly, who withdrew in conse- quence of impaired health, and was soon after called to his reward, all labored to- gether in harmony and with great success for years in advancing the interests of the institution, and the cause of education in general. Prof. Reynolds retired for a while soon after I entered the school, but in a few months returned again to his post, and I well remember the kindly greeting which he received, each student grasping him by the hand as he entered the school-room. His defection from the church of his fathers in later years is greatly to be regretted, and detracted much from his former popularity ; yet we must do him the justice to say that a more high-toned gentleman, a more popular teacher, or a kinder heart, did not perhaps exist in the institution. PORTRAITS OF THE ORIGINAL FACULTY.— PRESIDENT KRAUTH. " I do not suppose it comes within our province, in this sketch, to eulogize those noble men, the first Faculty of Pennsylvania College, yet the recollection of their greatness and goodness is so vivid that I cannot refrain from expressing my great ad- miration of their character. ******■?:-*:- * " One of the most prominent features in the character of President Krauth was his gentleness and leniency toward the students. Amid all their faults and violations of law he seemed ever to carry with him that "charity that thinketh no evil." Al- ways placing the most favorable construction upon every irregularity or failure to discharge duty, it seemed hard for him to utter a word of reproof, and when com- pelled to do so, it was done with such mildness and gentleness as to melt the hardest heart. His own son has more than once told me that the most pungent reproof he could receive for some of his waywardness was a simple look from his father, and ' Charles !' That was enough. And when occasionally some of us were detained in the class-room to answer for some violation of the rules of the College, his soft, gen- 430 MEMORABILIA. tie words, and those large, pierciiig eyes, \\ould liumble us at once, and make us feel guilty. On one occasion several of us M-ere called to account for absence from our rooms after the nine o'clock hour Sabbath evening. The first one replied that he had merely accompanied a lady friend to her home from church, and returned as soon as he conveniently could. The Doctor put on a pleasant smile, and said, 'Well, young gentlemen, I suppose you all have about the same excuse. I would suggest that if you/lesire to see your lady friends home from church on Sabbath evening, you should have a general permission for absence on these occasions.' ' Well, Doctor,'' said one, ' we now respectfully ask for a general permission to be absent from our rooms on Sabbath evening.' ' Veiy well ; you can have it, certainly.' "It was rarely necessary for him to command attention in the lecture room or in the pulpit. His preaching was so pungent, gospel truth was presented with such elo- quence and power, that he seldom failed to have the attention of his hearers. I think I never saw him disturbed in church but once. He simply made a short pause. ' I hear whispering in the gallery. . Be silent.' That was all, and that was sufficient. The congregation was shocked as if a voice had come from the clouds. There was no more whispering that night. THK KIKST REVIVAL IN PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE. " I think it was in 1837, about the time \\e entered the new College building, that there was a remarkable work of grace in Clettysburg, mostly among the students, though many of the citizens were also interested. Day and night the meetings were continued for about two weeks. Of course the students were not allowed to be absent from their recitations without permission. Some of those who were not much concerned made this a pretext for not attending the services. If they could not go to preaching without permission, they would not go at all. This came to Dr. Krauth's ears. At the hour of morning prayer in the College Chapel, he took occa- tiou to refer lo it. Said he : ' I undei-stand that some of you decline going to the religious services now being held in the church, because you are required to obtain permission for absence from your recitations. This, it seems to me, is a very strange pretext. You have no hesitation in asking permission to go elsewhere, to attend other meetings and other entertainments, and you know it is always granted when considered proper ; and why should you hesitate now, when this wonderful work of grace is progressing, and when your immortal interests are at stake ? But this shall be a pretext no longer.' And raising his voice, he continued with much emotion, ' I will jjo longer require you to ask permissioir. Go and seek an interest in Jesus ! Go and seek the salvation of your precious souls ! Go and prostrate yourselves at the foot of the cross, and cry for mercy in Jesus' name, and may the God of mercy go with you !' It was a powerful appeal. All felt the force of it, and many were brought to Christ; and probably in the great resurrection morning it will be seen that the result of those services had much to do in forming the character of the Lutheran Church in after years in this country. SOME NEW MEASURES. ■' It may not be out of place to say that the professors and the other ministers who participated in the exercises were not over fastidious about means and measures. There was an altar for prayer. Seats were set apart for inquirers, and there were sometimes MEMORABILIA. 43 1 as many as fifty penitents in tliose seats for instruetion ami prayer. I need searcely say that Dr. Kraiith was all alive (lurin<^ this glorious work. One incident connected with it is so indelibly impressed upon my mind that I shall relate it. One morning after the regular services had closed, and the congregation was retiring, a lady was seen standing in the aisle weeping bitterly. She seemed loth to leave the church. Dr. Krauth approacheil her, and after addressing a few words to her he said, ' Let us kneel down and pray.' And O ! what a prayer that was ! It reminded me of the remark that some one made about Luther, 'that he sometimes prayed as if he would do violence to Heaven.' The portion of the congregation that yet remained wan bathed in tears, and that lady, we trust, was made a new creature in Christ Jesus. During the remainder of the session a marked solemnity pervaded the institution and the town. The students continued to hold prayer-meetings in their rooms long after the meetings closed, and those services were commonly very interesting. In one of these meetings there was an unusual amount of weeping. It was late at night. Dr. Krauth had retired. It was thought advisable to wake him up. He dressed himself hurriedly and came into the room. When he heard the penitents crying for mercy, his heart was full. He addressed us with all the tenderness and affection of a father speaking to his own children, gave us the instruction and advice which we needed, offered up a most fervent prayer, commended us to God, and retired. No one could fail to feel the effect of his words, so appropriate and so comforting. 1 could now name several who professed faith in Christ at these private prayer-meetings, and who became prominent in the Church in after years. It will also be remembered by many, no doubt, that at the ensuing Commencement there were several members of the grad- uating class who were not professors of religion, which fact weighed so heavily upon Dr. Krauth that it was with much difficulty that he could pronounce his Haccalau- reate address. He wept almost during its entire delivery. " Dr. Krauth possessed naturally a very cheerful disposition, and when in company it could easily be seen that there was a streak of fun about him. He seemed to realize that "'A little nonsense now and then, Is relished by the best of men.' " It was not an uncommon thing for him to have a little innocent merriment at the expense of some one else. For instance : The West Pennsylvania Synod once met in a village not a great way from Gettysburg. A number of students were present. Several of us were quartered with Dr. Krauth and a German minister who was somewhat eccentric. On Sunday they were both to preach. The Doctor was to hold forth in the morning and the other man in the evening. ' Doctor,' said the German, ' we should have an understanding aljout our subjects. What is your text ? ' ' Well, I don't know,' said Dr. K. ' What is yours ?' ' I am going to u.se the words, " And Felix trembled." ' 'That is the very text I intend using,' said the Doctor; ' I can always preach upon that without any preparation.' ' Now, Doctor, that won't do. That is the only sermon I have with me, and I must use it.' The Doctor's manner showed that he had no thought of using that text, but he saw that the German was in a dilemma, and he enjoyed it. 43- MEMORAHir.IA. A oinirsK OK riiK prokkssor ov i;krman.

Don't you see how low and stooped that one is? Well, that is I.,au-baek. And see what a large, broad back that one has. That is All-back. Then the other one is Anspach.' I can still hear the Doctor's hearty guttural laugh at this ingenious dis- tinction of Prof. S. •* One of the students overheard a little private conxersalion w itli a merchant from w liom the Doctor purchased liis lamp oil. ."^aiil Mr. S.. • Doctor. I have a small account against you of which you perhaps are not aware.' ' No sir. no sir,' said the Doctor. 'I make no accounts with anyone; 1 pay as I go." "It is only a small account for oil." ' No. sir ; T always sent you the money.' ' Well, but Doctor, the price oi the oil is 6\ cts. a quart, and you sometimes sent only six cents, and during several years it has amounted to five cents.' The Doctor found himself fairly caught, and with a signitieant grin, paid the tivc cents. " In our class in Hebrew there was a very eccentric Scotchman, a man of very good sense, but remarkably slow in his progress in the Hebrew language. On one occasion when it came to his turn to read, he seemed quite at a loss. He held the book tirst in one position then in another, turned his head from side to side, twisted his mouth into all sorts of shapes, until Dr. K. became impatient. He said : ' Mr. W., remember this goes backwards.' ' Faith and indeed, doctor, it won't go at all,' said he. " It is well known that Dr. K. was remarkably gifted as an extemporaneous speaker. In his pulpit performances he would often base his sermon on Sabbath evening upon some te.Kt or subject suggested by the sermon of the morning. It was often observed that duritig the sermon on Sabbath morning, when the Doctor's turn was to preach at night, he was restless in his seat, moving from side to side, fumbling on his chain with his fingers, etc. It was not uncommon to hear a student remark, • I know what Dr. K.'s subject will be to night.' , .VN'OTHER GLIMI'SK OK TROF. SCHMIDT. " The Professors commonly preached in regular rotation. But occasionally there was a misunderstanding about the arrangement. In that case Dr. K. was almost always brought into requisition. On the other hand. Prof, S. never would attempt to preach without his manuscript. He was so scrupulous that it was said that even his announcements were written down and read. On one occasion the otliciating minister was late coming in. Prof. S. was the only preacher present. There was danger of disappointment. He had no sermon with him, and what was to be done ? He took his hat and left for home, but fortunately met the preacher who was to officiate, and returned. But Dr. K. was not of that sort. He seemed to be always prepared, and ready for any emergency, and I suppose no one ever heard him make a failure. 1 shall be ipardoned for adding one or two features to Mr. Brown's sketcli of this somewhat notable man. He was a most courtly man in his bearing. Erect in per- MEMORABILIA. 433 son, dignified in deportment, scrupulous in dress, well-brushed clerical black, his buttoned swallow-tail coat adding to his military look, unimpeachable linen, the white, broad cravat, supporting a high standing collar, always tied in the same man- ner, though no one ever saw the ends, or could divine where they were — his cane carefully carried under his arm, never used for walking — who that ever saw Prof. Schmidt could ever forget him, in his stately march to or from the College. He was as precise in his pronunciation as he was in his dress, and the slovenly way in which the French nasals and the German umlauts were rendered made his class-room life a burden to his critical spirit. During his connection with the College he published a work on ' Pedagogics." Authorship was less common then than now. He stood alone in this honor, and we all looked with awe at ' the man of one book.' PROF. BAUGHER. " Dr. Baugher, though a great, good man, was entirely of a different make-up. Whilst he was kind and affable, and much beloved by the students, yet he was stern and rigid both in and out of the recitation room, and every student was expected to meet the requirements of the Institution, or abide the penalty. Aware of this char- acteristic, we were commonly more careful in our preparations for his department than any other. Notwithstanding all this, the students revered him for his goodness, and loved him for his conscientiousness. There never was a regular rebellion in Pennsylvania College during my connection with it, but on one occasion there was a regular tiff in the Junior class in Dr. B.'s department. It was claimed that his remarks to the class were uncalled for and insulting. They refused to return to their recitations, and the matter threatened to be serious. After some days the Doctor called them to his room, acknowledged that he had perhaps been too hasty in his remarks, apologized as humbly as a child, and all was forgiven and forgotten." " Dr. B. was not what the world would call an eloquent preacher. He cared little for rounded periods and smooth sentences. But he had power in the pulpit — such power as few men possess. He seemed to feel himself the force of the truths he pre- sented, and no one could fail to be impressed by his words. He was stern in his reproofs, but at the same time they were tempered with kindness. He was once preaching in the chapel of the old building. He saw a young man laughing and annoying the one by his side. He paused a moment, and said, 'Jacob D., walk out of this room.' And as the young man was passing out, he added, " I pray that vou may not thus be turned out of heaven.' Tears came in his eyes as he spoke, and it was some time before he could resume his discourse." EZR.A KELLER. " One of the most prominent students of Pennsylvania College, when I became a member of it, was Ezra Keller, of precious memory-. I soon learned to look up to him as a father, and it was evident from his grave demeanor and dignified bearing, that he was not only respected, but revered by all. He took no part in athletics or college sports of any kind. His very presence seemed to be a check to levitv- and mirth. No one dared to approach him with undue familiarit}-. Perhaps few men that have been connected with Pennsylvania College ever developed better traits of head and heart than Mr. Keller, and no one exerted a greater influence for good amongst the students in his day than he. It was very common for young men to 28 434 MEMORABILIA. group together after dinner and engage in conversation until the hour for study. But Mr. K.' would invariably pass them by and make for his room. Sometimes they would become rather loud and noisy, when he would approach them gravely, admin- ister a kind rebuke, which all would receive in good part, and again return to his room. I never knew him to be absent from a College recitation but once, and that was when a stranger came into his room on one occasion on some agency, when Mr. K. was about starting to his class-room. He found that the man was a Roman Cath- olic, and they got into a controversy which was so sharp that Mr. K. forgot his reci- tation. ' But his excuse was readily received. His ardent piety, his industry, and his stability of cliaracter, gave unmistakable evidence that he ^^■ould make his mark in this world. And he did. * - i<- * * * * * THE FIRST DUEL, .A.ND THE L.'^ST. " Two youngsters had a tift". One of the parties was a green country chap. The other one and his friends took advantage of this, and concluded to have some sport. A challenge to mortal combat was given in due form, and accepted. The parties and their friends repaired to the field of conflict for satisfaction. All the preliminaries being arranged, a young man who professed to be a mutual friend, and who was thoroughly in the secret, approached the countryman and said in much solemnity : ' Mr. S., in the event that this unfortunate affair should terminate in your death, where do you wish your remains to be taken?' This question moved the poor fellow. He was unable to reply for a few monients, but at length said, ' Take me to Berks ! ' The parties now took their position, and when the word was given, fired ! But no blood was spilled — no brains were lost. A reconciliation took, place, and both parties returned home covered all over with glory ! The matter was about to be reported to the Faculty, but it leaked out that the rascally seconds had loaded the pistols with tow instead of bullets, and the matter was passed over. * * -x- -s- " Some of our best and most prominent students were quite careless in their habits of dress, nor did it at all disturb them that they were poor and had not always a de- cent change of garments. One of this class is no\\' one of the leading men of our church. On one occasion he was chosen as one of the performers at a literary con- test. All knew he could prepare a creditable production, but as the representative of a literary society he must also present a respectable appearance on the stage. He had nothing of his own fit to wear for such an occasion ; and it was with much difii- culty tlTat he could be induced to wear clothes that were borrowed for him. Soon after, the young man entered College ; it was found that he was a youth of great promise, and notwithstanding his poverty and shabby appeai^ance, he was respected by all. One evening Dr. Schmucker sent for him, he obeyed the summons with some degree of trepidation, he was not conscious of having transgressed, yet he did not know what awaited him. After the usual salutation, his fears were magnified when the Doctor deliberately rose from his seat and began to lay off his coat. ' What does this mean? If it is to be a free fight, I must make the best of it.' But his worst apprehensions subsided when the doctor told him the coat was rather small, and requested him to try it on. The young man said that after all he rather liked such an episode, as it gave him an idea, for the first time in his life, how a man did feel in a fine coat. MEMORABILIA. 435 RECITATION ANECDOTES. " Prof. K. was examining a class on mental philosophy. Reference was made to the influence which different occupations would exert upon the mind. Hea.sked the question, ' What kind of a mind do you suppose a man would have who did nothing but sharpen pins all his life?' The reply was, ' I think it would be pretty sharp.' " An amu.sing incident once occurred in the department of Dr. Gilbert, lecturer on Anatomy and Physiology. These lectures were principally objective. On this occa- sion the subject of his lecture was the bone that terminates the lower end of the spinal column. It has some little resemblance to the lower jawbone, having a num- ber of foramina, which the uninitiated might suppose were the receptacles of veritable teeth. When the Doctor was about closing his lecture he told us that a backwoods minister once came into his office and .seemed much interested in examining the bones that were lying around. At length he got hold of this bone, and after a careful and minute inspection of it he seemed puzzled, and inquired what it was. " That," said Dr. G., 'is the OS coccygis.' 'Ah! yes,' said the preacher, and placing it under his chin, he continued, ' I suppo.se it is applied in this way.' ' Now, young gentle- men,' said the Doctor, ' I hope that our future preachers will know enough about anat- omy so as to apply this bone to the other end of the spinal column, where it properly belongs.' THE TWO IJTERARV .SOCIETIES; THE CONTEST OK 1838. "Our literary society exercises were commonly occasions of much interest and ex- citement. Of course each strove for the mastery. Ever)' new arrival was carefully watched, posted and caressed, and generally had a hard time until one or the other society got him into its clutches. The annual poblic contest was a great event with the students, as well as with the citizens. I do not know whether the same programme is still in vogue or not. But in the times of which I write, about two months before the time set apart for the exercise, a challenge was given by one of the societies in due form, and the subject for debate was agreed upon. An election was held for reader, speaker, and debater. The best talents of the parties were brought into requisition, and preparations were carefully made. ********* " Many, no doubt still remember the contest of 1838. It was regarded as the most spirited one that had occurred up to that date. The debaters were both men of rare calibre, and were considered the best speakers of the institution ; and withal high- toned gentlemen, neither of whom was capable of an intentional wrong. But there was an ingenious piece of strategy used by one of them. According to the rules of the societies, Mr. A. had the opening address. In view of this fact his antagonist, Mr. K., whose hand -writing was well known, and who was suspected of being the representative of the other society, wrote on small strips of paper the headings of a number of arguments which might be used on his side of the question in the debate, and dropped them careles.sly in the College Campus. These were picked up and carried to Mr. A., and of course he prepared himself to anticipate the arguments of his opponent. He made a flaming .speech. His friends were jubilant, and supposed he had completely demolished his antagonist ; and whilst Mr. K's friends trembled for the result, he was quite calm and composed, and to the astonishment of everybody did not use a single argument that Mr. A. had anticipated and fought so bravely. 436 MEMORABILIA. No one who was present can forget how triumphantly Mr. K. turned upon his oppo- nent, and suiting his gesture to the remark, " Has not the gentleman's argument, like Hudibras' gun, " ' Whether aimed at duck or plover," Shot far and wide and knocked its owner over ?' " JOTTINGS BY PROF. C. A. HAY, GETTYSBURG, PA. Before the erection of the College building, the students boarded and lodged with private families in town, and there was no possibility of the exercise of nocturnal discipline. The wildest pranks were then quite common, such as hoisting carts and wagons astride the comb of the roof of the old market-house, that then stood alongside of the old Court House in the public square ; building a worm-fence around' the Court House, and penning within it a dozen or more of the cows of the town; tearing out the benches of the chapel in the old Academy on High street, where recitations were held; and putting together a huge broad-wheeled wagon in the chapel, and loading it with brick. When the College building was ready for occupancy, the Faculty assembled in the room now occupied by the President, and awaited the coming of the students to draw lots for the choice of rooms. Instead of going out, however, for that purpose, they gathered in the old market-house and organized a formal rebellion. Old Mr. Aughinbaugh, the steward, at whose table all were then required to board, demanded ^1.75 per week for board, and 12^ cents for cleaning the rooms. No objection was made to the price of boarding; but the extra 12^ cents seemed to be extortion, imposition, an outrage, etc. A committee was sent to the Faculty to protest against this high-handed measure. They were graciously received, and presently returned to the rebellious assemblage in the market-house, with the news that the Faculty had raised the price of boarding to $1.87 )4t with no extra charge for the cleaning of the rooms. That made it all right ; and the spick and span new building was soon swarming and reverberating with its delighted occupants. A REMINISCENCE BY J. J. SUMAN. SHOWING HOW TWO INCIPIENT BISHOPS EARLY PRACTICED THAT HOSPITALITY WHICH BELONGS TO THE EPISCOPAL OFFICE. I went to Gettysburg in 1838 or 1839, and, like most of the students of my class, had to g.et along the best I could on the pittance that was allowed us. W. H. Har- rison, myself, and some others, rented a house in the town, and went to keeping bachelors' «hall. We used to live on the fat of the land. We would buy from an old lady who lived near, about a gallon and a half of saur-kraut, put in it about a pint of lard, then cook it, and eat it for breakfast, dinner, and supper, until it was gone ! Did you know brother Yearick, of the Reformed Church? While we were living thus, he made his appearance at Gettysburg. He was a total stranger there, and in the generosity of our souls — for we were large-hearted, if we were small-pursed — we ofi'ered him our hospitalities, until he could do better. He accepted them, and we fed him on satir-kraut morning, noon, and night, until he almost died. Harrison and I took turn and turn about, he cooking one week, and I the next. MEMORABILIA. ' 437 It was Harrison's week for cooking. As was our custom, on Saturday we would bake corn-bread enough to last all the week. He had baked a lot of Johnny-cakeS, stood them around the cupboard as long as there was room, and the balance he piled up, one on top of the other. Next day, Sunday, we went to church, came across an old friend from Frederick, and invited him home with us. He, supposing we lived at the top of the pile, accepted the invitation. After we were in the house awhile, Harrison said, " Well, I suppose we must have some dinner." He went to the cup- board, got out the pile of Johnnies, commenced pulling them apart, for you must know, being hot when put in, they stick together, and the skin came off. He put them on the stove, on a tin plate, to warm. Our company kept eying him all the time, stretching up his neck as the cakes were spread out, looking to see what else was coming, and when ive were nearly ready to dine, he said, " Well, I reckon I must go." We, to carry on the joke, tried to persuade him to stay— told him he was perfectly welcome. But he said they would expect him where he stopped, and a dozen other excuses. We couldn't keep him with such fare before his eyes, for any consideration. And I don't wonder — do you ? We never saw that poor fellow again — he gave our house a wide berth. THE SALT OF THE EARTH, AND OTHER SALTS. You knew Harrison, didn't you? Well he was one of the best souls that ever lived. He and I always roomed together. After the above incident, we had a room furnished us at the Seminary. Poor fellow I he was very much subject to the sick- headache. He thought nothing would do him good in this condition but Glauber's salts. One day being sick, his accustomed medicine was resorted to. He put in a glass tumbler what I thought was a big dose. He went to get some water to mix it, when there was none in the room. He took the pitcher, went down to the pump, and while he was gone for water, I mischievously put in as much more. When he came back he looked at it and said : " S., that looks to be a big dose." " Oh, Will, I reckon not.' In a moment he became deathly sick — in fact, fainted. I was terri- bly frightened, and not until it was all over did I tell him what I had done. His only rebuke was, " Well S !" FROM NOTES BY EPHRAIM MILLER, SMICKSBURG, PA. .K LAZY STUDENT. In our days Dr. Baugher was Professor of Latin, etc. Himself a diligent and thorough scholar, he could not endure negligence or indolence in a student, and knew how to avail himself of an opportunity to administer a keen reproof. 'One of the class, who could have stood at its head but for his want of application, one day while we were reading the Jugurtha of Sallust, had read a passage which included the fol- lowing : "Nam Jugurtha, ut erat impigro atque acri ingenio," etc. After having stumbled through a sort of translation. Prof. B. asked him for the derivation of the word " impigro." The student, rolling his eyes upward, as if searching for an answer in vacancy, finally replied, " Don't know, sir." It was the Professor's opportunity. With a keen glance of his dark eye, and a biting stress of voice, all the more so for its quietness, he answered, " In, not, and/4''''''> lazy." 438 MEMORABILIA. A " CORKSCREW." One of the class when reciting in Paley's Natural Theology, was called on to describe the "intestinal canal"' of the "sea-fox," which the author speaks of as a " straight intestine," in which there "is a winding, corkscrew, spiral passage," etc. The winding passage seemed to be a labyrinth in which conceptions and memory became sadly confused, and the hapless student had only one recollection. After considerable hesitation, and a desperate -effort to twist himself out of the intricacies of the subject, all he could say was, "Well — it — has a — corkscrew," with a sort of gasp, as if afraid of being wrong in some way. The Professor caught the comical feature of the student's answer and manner, and with a humorous twist in his voice inquired, "Well, Mr. , and what does it want with a corkscrew ?" Answer — some audible smiling in the class, which the Professor did not repress. A JUNIOR REBELLION. One of the professors was credited with a good deal of impatience when recita- tions undulated so much as to make the student's head swim in his efforts to stee straight through. On one occasion he had assigned about double the number of pages in " Cavallo" for a lesson. The students could prepare only about half of it or a little more. Aware of the unusual length of the lesson, the Professor began about the middle of it ; and of course it w'as not long till the class was at the " end of the string." This nettled him, and he soon dismissed them, with the remark that if they could nor recite better the next time they should not come at all. Next morning most of the class were absent, but one who was a considerable oddity, a German, with abundance of talent for languages, but scaixely anything else, remained outside in the corridor, afraid to stay away altogether, and yet unwill- ing to go in. The Professor heard him pacing back and forth at the door, and sent for him to come in. As he entered the Professor asked, " Why did you not come m, Mr. ?" " Vy, you told us if ve didn't know our lessons better, ve shouldn't come." Professor: "Yes, but you know I didn't mean that." Student: "Veil, I didn't know vot you meant ; I only knew vot you sedt ; and I took you at your Yort." There was another rebellion that many will recall, " and the students all mur- mured against the steward and said: what shall we eat?" This was because the boiled ham was very strong-smelling — the butter was very strong also. It was agreed that we would consume the butter by putting it liberally on our plates and pouring molasses over it. The meat we put on our forks — two -pronged iron forks — thrust them under the table, where they were found on the following Saturday when the tables-were turned up in order to give the dining-room its weekly scrubbing. The ham improved — the backbone of . that rebellion wms broken. REV. SIDNEY L. HARKEY'S RECOLLECTIONS OF PENNSYLVANIA COLLEGE. I WENT to Gettysburg in the fall of 1S44, and entered the Freshman class in Penn- sylvania College. I was without money, and the Beneficiary Education Society would receive no more students on its funds, being heavily in debt. To the noble MEMORABILIA. 439 generosity of Prof. II. L. Baugher, Sen., at that time Prof, of Greek, I am indebted for my continuance in the Institution. He took me to his hou.se, and boarded me gratuitously for one whole year, and treated me as one of his own family. This he proposed to do during my whole course ; but after the first year I boarded myself, clubbing with several others, at a cost of 60 cents per week. In this ab.stemious living I injured my health for life. I was one of the victims of the terrible fever that raged in the winter of 1846-7, during which time_ George .\lbert and Wm. A. Renshaw, and others, died. I knew nothing of those deaths until I was able to walk on the street, having been confined in a house in town for eight weeks. After I could walk, I went out in the 'street and met George J. Martz, whose head was shaved as clean as his face, and he frightened me by his looks, and still more by telling me who had died. I fell against the wall and wept, most of all for George Albert, whom I loved perhaps more than any other. I went a little farther and called at a private house to see Milton Valentine, who was very low. WTien I saw him I well nigh fainted. His face and nose were covered with dried, black blood, his mouth open, tongue black, flesh wa.sted away, unable to speak. 'It must have been almost a miracle that he was restored. Some humorous incidents occurred during this sickness in the Seminary. Two students roomed on the fourth story in the Seminary, near together, and one of them being delirious, and having no watcher, got up in his night-clothes and slipped over into the other room, and without saying a word, sat down in the rocking-chair by the stove, and did not move for several hours. The other waked up and turned over, w hen he beheld this white object and took it to be an angel come to take his soul away to the eternal world. When the watchman came in, the poor .student was covered with cold perspiration and almost unconscious I This epidemic was the cause of my leaving College in the Junior year. I was one' of the founders of the "Naiidel and Haydn Association,'" sometimes leading the vocal department and .sometimes playing the violincello. Dr. C. P. Krauth, sen., was President of College, and sometimes was quite terrible to the boys, though mostly very mild. Once a lot of us were in the room of John A. Lynch and Reuben A. Fink, reading over our Greek lesson, when suddenly Dr Krauth stood in the door, having been attracted by some unusual noise made Vjy some intruders. Some of the boys crept under the bed, and .some attempted to creep out between the Doctor's legs and under his arms, which he had spread out wide to keep all in. Two were caught by the coat-collars and .shaken until their heads danced like popinjays upon their shoulders. Some of us sat still and took a reprimand. REVIVALS IN COLLEGE AND A FEW OTHER FACTS. P,Y THE EDITOR. I wish that the reminiscences of these religious movements, or " excitements," if any one prefers to call them by that name, might be somewhat minutely set down, while the actors in them, and the subjects of them, are .still living. I am satisfied in my own mind, that few phenomena have been more influential in determining the lives and characters of the young men then in college, than those so- called revivals. A wave of religious excitement was at that time moving over Eng- land as well as over the United States. The "Oxford Tracts" then had their 440 MEMORABILIA. counterpart in this country, and Puseyism, The Anxious Bench, Mercersburg The- ology, and Revivalism, were all of them merely so many ebbs and flows of the same restless sea — it has not quieted down yet into a calm. THE SUMMER OF 1839. The religious feeling during this session was very deep. Even at this far remove I can feel its solemnity. Perhaps I was more open to such impressions then, for I had just come to College from a course of catechetical instruction, under the pious labors of the Rev. Jacob Albert, of Hanover; had been confirmed and admitted to my first communion. My heart had grown thoughtful and tender, and I was no doubt sensitive to religious influences. There was one incident which greatly intensified the religious sentiment then per- vading the institution : that was the sudden death of young Key, of Baltimore. He died in the College building, and it seemed a voice from the grave calling to repentance. Many religious meetings were held — Sprayer-meetings especially. I do not now recall any additional preaching services, but "morning and evening prayers," which, in colleges, are usually perfunctory and never very devout, were at that time deeply serious, and often painful in their solemnity. The younger students were gathered into small prayer-meeting groups. They met in each other's rooms, or, perhaps, more often, in the rooms of the older Christian students. Henry Ziegler's room was one of these "places where prayer was wont to be made." Gottleib Bassler's room was also an oratory. So, too, Harrison's and Suman's room or rooms, for I do not recall who of these roomed together, but I distinctly recall that the rooms of all of these brethren were on tlie fourth floor back. The only larger prayer-meetings held 'were on Sunday evenings. These were conducted by the theological students. The names most deeply impressed on my memory as active in revival work at that time, are those of Passavant, Hay, Harris, Ziegler, Bassler, Harrison and Suman — and later, John E. Graeff, Fred. Barnitz, and Benedict. THE WINTER OF 1842-3.' This was a revival season pretty wide-spread. I was out of College during the winter term, and therefore am unable to give any details. I only remember that, on my making a visit to Gettysburg at the time of the contest between the two literary societies of the College (February of 1843), I observed the deep religious feeling which pervaded the community and the College. It was during this revival that Robert Clarkson and his brother Joseph, Luther Albert, the son of my old pastor, and others, whose names have escaped me, became interested in religion. I shall never forget the eloquent address made by some of the young men — especially by the present Bishop of Nebraska — on that occasion. THE SPRING OF 1844. The religious impulse of the previous year — perhaps of the preceding years — was carried over, and its momentum increased. The day of prayer for colleges was looked forward to with fear and dread. All the devotional exercises of the college reflected the excitement that was coming. The preaching was serious, whoever did it; but of Prof. Baugher's, the acting pastor of the college church, this was particu- MEMORABILIA. 44I larly true. Always earnest, always pungent, he was now perfervid in his pulpit min- istrations. Before the spring communion, the Revs. Harkey and Conrad were invited to hold a series of meetings. They were simply preaching meetings. I never heard of an inquiry meeting conducted by them, or even a prayer-meeting. This work, so far as it was done, was in the hands of those zealous men, some of whose names have al- ready been mentioned. The sermons were preached in the college church, mornings and evenings. They continued for several weeks. The first of the series was by the Rev. Mr. Harkey, then settled in Frederick. The entry in my diary is as follows: "Rev. Harkey. March 18, 1844. Luke xviii. 1-8. The first sermon of a protracted meeting. Showed the special obligations which rest on Christians in the commencement of such a series of meetings." This was on Monday evening. On Tuesday morning he followed with a sermon on " Consecration" — Rom. xii. i ; and in the evening with one on " Faith." On Wednesday morning, the Rev. F. W. Conrad, of Hagerstown, preached on " Backsliding," and on Friday evening on " Madness." Eccl. ix. 3. Thursday and Saturday the pulpit was occupied by Rev. Mr. Harkey. The Preparatory Sermon was on " Christian Fellowship." I John i. 3. The Lord's Supper was celebrated on Sunday morning, March 24; the theme was " The Plan of Salvation." i Tim. iii. 16. In the evening, " Resisting the Spirit." Mr. Conrad seems to have gone home after Friday night, leaving the work to Mr. Harkey. His public work closed with two sermons on Monday. In the forenoon on " N'eglect of Salvation." Heb. ii. 3. At night on " Death — Natural, Spiritual, and Eternal." I took notes of all these fifteen sermons. The subjects were all practical, vital, and were treated with great seriousness, and some of them with very great power. The preaching was direct and personal, and the appeals and the exhortations tender •and importunate. I do not recall any " scenes;" there was no " anxious bench," and there was no confusion. They kept good hours, and maintained orderly deport- ment. Looking back at those revivals, after forty years, I recall nothing in the manner of conducting them that is unpleasant. Possibly those who were older may have seen things of which they disapproved. I am glad to say that the deepest impression left on my mind was the importance, solemnity, and nearness of eternal things. Some of my best resolutions date from that time. Some of my tenderest friendships are rested there, and among the names of those who were most zealous for " these things," there are many whose after-life and labors have been an ornament and a blessing to the church of Christ. The interest did not stop with the personal labors of Harkey and Conrad. The meetings continued, also the extra preaching services in the College church. Col. Lemenosky, a converted soldier, carried on this work for some time in April, but I find no records of any other names. I know not what has been the religious history of our Alma Alatcr in other years ; but on those which I have written, and of wliich I was a part, this is my judgment : " Whoso is wise, and will observe these things, even they shall understand the loving-kindness of the Lord." Ps. cvii. 43, 442 MEMORABILIA. I entered the Preparatory Department of Pennsylvania College in the spring of 1839. The two rooms on the first floor, in the east end of the building, were used as recitation rooms. Mr. Geo. Diehl (now Doctor) "presided over" the right-hand room, Tutor Schock (J. L.) had charge of the left-hand room. In this latter room we met for morning and evening prayers, roll-call and declamation. I see yet the mot- ley crowd of hastily and half-dressed boys rushing pell-mell to be in time to answer to their names — nearly half the roll runs through my mind as I think of those days, and with equal distinctness I recall the different ways in which " the boys" answered to their names; the timid " here," sometimes abridged to "yer," or flattened out to "hyer;" now and then the English " yes" would come up, and occasionally the Latin " present." Then the Scriptures and prayer — brief interval of quiet, to be broken by the noisy, hurried e.xit for breakfast, or for the completion of the unfin- ished toilets. In those days the majority of the students boarded in commons — a few favored ones had the freedom of the town. Mr. Peter Aughinbaugh was steward, and the dining-room was on the first floor, under the portico. Two lines of tables extended the length of the room. At the head of each table sat one of the tutors, to ask the blessing, preserve order and carve. The students stood while grace was being said. Instead of chairs, we sat on long benches, and it sometimes happened, in our zeal to be seated, or in some superfluity of naughtiiiess, that one of those benches would be overturned with a great crash, to the delight of the boys and the confusion of the tutor, or the principal of the Preparatory Department. Sed paido inajora caiiamiis : These ground-floor rooms were used also for gen- eral study. I think, however, they were only thus used by students not rooming in the building — and possibly for the younger members of the Preparatory. " The town boys," I know, were kept "in durance vile." I well remember the cheery, chubby face of the present Bishop of Nebraska and his brother "Joe," now " starred" in the catalogue. I could not well forget that these rooms were both for recitation and general study — for having entered late in the term, I recited at such times as were convenient for the teacher. Here I said my Latin Grammar to Tutor Diehl, and here I wrestled with the Greek Reader. I was once quite audibly smiled upon by that room, for crowding " Penelope" into three syllables — Pen-e-lope. But as I and some others were obliged to put in our recitations at odd times, perhaps we put them in sometimes rather oddly. My classmate, Gather, must have had his troubles too in Latin and Greek, for he declareiJ to Tutor Diehl that committing the Latin declensions was " like pulling teeth," and as for getting a Greek paradigm — "he'd as soon climb a shell-bark tree backwards." This comparison smacks more of the Illinois than of the Ilissus, and James Gather was a true westerner. The other recitation rooms were Prof. Reynolds' (Latin) over Mr. Diehl's, and Prof. Jacobs' (mathematics) over Tutor Shock's. The Ghapel, which was used by the College students for prayer, roll-call and declamation, was Prof. Baugher's (Greek) recitation room. Prof. Schmidt (German, French and History) had the right-hand room as you enter the building from the front portico — and across the - broad hall was the President's (Krauth) room. There the Theological stu- dents recited Hebrew ; the Seniors, Mental Philosophy and Natural Theology. MEMORABILIA. 443 There too the facuhy met — and into that dread abode were summoned the delin- quents. The room across the narrow hall from the faculty room, was our " Read- ing room." The President's family, at that time, occupied a suite of four rooms on the second floor, we.st end. In those large parlors the Commencement parties were given. The President's dining room was on the ground floor opposite the foot of the west stair- way. The rest of the ground floor was given over to the kitchen, store rooms, and the steward's family. The tutors also occupied rooms in the College building — the front rooms at each end of the third-story hall. Prof. Reynolds occupied a house a few doors below Buehler's drug store. Prof. Jacobs' house stood on the corner of Washington and Middle streets. Prof. Schmidt, holding a professorship in the Theological Seminary, occupied the house west of the Seminary building. Prof. Baugher lived in his own house on Mt. Airey. Buehler's drug store was the Faculty "club-room" in those days. There Dr. Schmucker and President Krauth especially crossed swords in high debate, assisted occasionally by others. In warm weather the good President did not disdain to wear his gown — not academic, but of light color and slight texture — into the village ; and that airy style of garment, more comfortable than classic, was adopted by many of the students. The societies use the same rooms now as then — sed iniitatits ab illo. Their libra- ries were near by — the College Library was across the hall from the Chapel. The College campus as we now see it was not yet. The front yard was bare as your hand, the back yard was the general wood-yard. I think it was in '44 that the campus was set out m trees. Benedict (F.), now of Bedford, Pa., was a leading spirit in those improvements, and in honor of him, I named the road leading from the Portico to Washington street — the only path then laid down — Via Benedicta — a name which, I believe, it still retains. Our campus, in those days, was the field back of the present Preparatory building. There we played some "corner-ball" and much "long-ball," till "town-ball" drove those rustic games out of fashion. Base-\yaX^ was not yet known to the curric- ulum, nor did the college course embrace rowing and the other modern improvements. The good boy came with his " Bible," but left his "bull-dog" at home. Nor were pistols necessary to teach young ideas how to shoot. I suppose the time of such ignorance is winked at now, but where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be otherwise. THE CLASS OF 1852. BY JOHN W. HASSLER, NEW HOLLAND, PA. The class of 1852 was, from its entrance, an unfortunate class. Small in numbers when it entered (don't know the exact number, nor who they were), it remained a small class throughout its course, and was graduated as the smallest class of the insti- tution for a number of years prior to it, while the institution has never since grad- uated so small a class. I don't remember its original members, but I think all its graduated members entered with it in the Freshman year, excepting perhaps Kregelo and Scherer. I believe none of the graduate members, except myself, prepared in the Preparatory Department of Pennsylvania College. 444 MEMORABILIA. It was with this class that the Junior Exhibitions of the Commencements of Penn- sylvania College were begun, and the class of 1852 had the honor of being the pioneers in the Junior Exhibition business. But there were no prizes or any of that sort of thing when we were students, and quite as well perhaps, for very likely some of us would have been disappointed. The subjects of some of our Junior speeches were: Mr. Spang, "The Hopes of Italy," Mr. Waggenseller, "Mens Conscia Recti;" my own, " Struggles for Swiss Liberty." We had the usual amount of fun and jollity during our College course, but I doubt whether students then were as " fast" as they are now. It belongs to the honor of our class of 1852 to have given the name to, and perhaps immortalized, the little stream known then, perhaps still, as the Tihei-, which runs between College and the town. It grew out of an unfortunate trick played upon Mr. Peter Aughinbaugh, then janitor of the College, in which a fine calf of his was the victim, and the victimizers were chiefly members of our class, who promptly and generously paid Mr. A. for his loss. The whole transaction induced Mr. Spang, who either was, or became, familiar with the facts, to write a poem on it, in which the Tiber was immortalized. A REMINISCENCE OF 1868; OR, A HOT SPELL, AND WHAT CAME OF IT. BY DR. CHAS. E. SADTLER. Fourth of July occurred in the midst of a hot spell of weather ; for a week past the recitations had dragged in a spiritless way, and outside of the recitation-rooms the usual good order had given way to anarchy. On the afternoon of the 3d, some one started singing patriotic songs in the College building. This seemed to strike the fancy of the crowd, and soon the whole popula- tion of the building gathered in the hall of the third floor, most of them in rocking- chairs, forming a double row up and down the hall. The fun waxed fast and furi- ous; never before had such a rousing choi'us been assembled in the old college walls. The tutors walked the halls in despair, or if they sought refuge in their rooms, were recalled by volleys of fire-crackers. Finally, the din having aroused the neighbor- hood, a message came from the President peremptorily ordering a rest. This was immediately obeyed, and whistling of the same tunes substituted, and though the neighbors profited by the change, the tutors did not. The whistling being in turn sup- pressed, violent rocking of the chairs and animated discussion took its place, and so on all the evening, until the poor tutors felt life to be a burden. At about II o'clock p. m., when some semblance of order had been restored, and the tutors had retired to their rooms, the sudden cessation of all sounds led them to investigate. The College was deserted ; not a soul was to be found, and in suspense they awaited the Explanation of this new feature. In the meantime a sorry-looking lot of scarecrows, a regular Guy Fawkes procession, had filed in silence through town. Each clad in his most ragged and disreputable-looking garments, they Avended their way out to the battle-field, having taken a notion to greet the approach- ing 4th in the National Cemetery, the good people of town being in a state of bewil- derment as to the meaning of this peculiar ceremony. On the arrival of the crowd at the Cemetery, they seemed to feel the sacred char- acter of the place, and the burlesque celebi-ation was, by common consent, changed MEMORABILIA. 445 to more becoming exercises ; the short remaining time before midnight was improved by appropriate remarks from some of the older students, and at 12 o'clock the old anthem, " My Country 'Tis of Thee," was feelingly sung by the assembled crowd, aild the march home begun. Again the spectres filed silently through town, and as a final vent to their spirits, after gathering quietly on the College porch, broke for their rooms on a run, yelling like Indians. The Board of Trustees, at the annual meeting following, changed the Scholastic year to its present limits. Among the war reminiscences, it may be of interest to record that owing to the frequent presence of dangerous characters about Gettysburg, and especially after a serious conflagration, it was deemed expedient to have the town protected by an armed patrol at night. The able-bodied men were enrolled, and each one was re- quired to take his turn as guard, among them the College Professors. Drs. Jacobs and Muhlenberg were always, when on duty, in company. The nights generally passed without any noteworthy incident ; but on one occasion York street was aroused by the vigorous pursuit of a notoriously desperate man whom these professorial guards found prowling in the darkness, and who soon, finding that their arms were bent on execution if resistance were made, was promptly arrested. The current report concerning two other members of the Faculty was, that on one occasion their lot fell on a rainy night, and that one carried the umbrella while the other carried the rifle. H. E. J.
