 'Hail to our Brotherhood ! 
 Bright is our Brotherhood ! 
 
 Noble its aim ! 
 Byes beaming earnestly, 
 Hearts linked in unity, 
 And immortality 
 
 Guarding its name !" 
 
PREFATORY NOTE 
 
 "Friends in fair and stormy weather, 
 
 Friends no ill can part, 
 Linked in love we grow together, 
 
 Ever friends at heart. 
 
 "And the chain that stretches longer, 
 
 Over land and sea. 
 Binding faster, clasping stronger, 
 
 Is our A K E. " 
 
 In the spirit of these lines our Fraternity was 
 founded and has grown. In that spirit I have col- 
 lected upon the following pages some of the facts and 
 figures that form the framework of the history of 
 Theta Chapter of Delta Kappa Epsilon for the past 
 sixty years, and have supplemented them with brief 
 biographical sketches of its members. Fortunately the 
 little volume goes into the hands of kindly critics, for 
 it has many imperfections. The task of preparing it 
 has been a labor of love, in which many alumni and 
 undergraduate members have promptly and kindly 
 answered the frequent calls I have made upon them, 
 but the exactions of daily newspaper work have not 
 allowed me the time I would gladly have spent upon it, 
 and the subject itself is one with which it is difficult to 
 
deal successfully. The real history of our Fraternity 
 is engraved upon the hearts of its individual members, 
 and woven with bright colors into the fabric of their 
 lives ; it is not something that can be written upon 
 paper. For each man the history is different; for all 
 it is perfect and precious and something to be cherished 
 while memory counts over its richest treasures. 
 
 There are only a few things which the historian may 
 deal with and dAvell upon, and I hope that as these 
 appear upon the following pages they will be of interest 
 to all my fellow members — the ''Delta Kaps" of an 
 earlier generation whose heads, but not whose hearts, 
 the frosts of years have, touched, and the ''Dekes" of 
 later times in whose possession still remains that won- 
 derful thing called youth. I hope that this volume 
 may strengthen the bonds of our brotherhood ; that 
 its story of the early years, and the life record of our 
 members may be an inspiration to those who are to 
 follow us, and that it may bear a message of love and 
 loyalty from Theta to the sister Chapters of our great 
 Fraternity.

THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON 
 
 1844—1904 
 
 THETA CHAPTER of the Delta Kappa 
 Epsilon Fraternity was established at Bow- 
 doin College in the Fall of 1844. The story 
 of its founding begins in a correspondence 
 between John S. H. Fogg, Bowdoin, '46, 
 and Elisha B. Shapleigh, Yale, '46. Both of these 
 young men were natives of Eliot, Maine, and had 
 together prepared for college in the old academy of 
 that town. The latter, when a Junior at Yale, became 
 one of the fifteen members of his class who founded 
 the Delta Kappa Epsilon Fraternity in June, 1844. 
 That he should write all about this imiportant event 
 to his friend Fogg, at Bowdoin, was the most natural 
 thing in the world ; and that the latter, with his little 
 circle of closest friends, should catch the spirit of the 
 movement, followed as naturally. The letters which 
 passed between them have not been preserved, but we 
 know that there w^as such a correspondence and that 
 as its result, Shapleigh and one of his associates, 
 Edward G. Bartlett, whose home was in Portsmouth, 
 
12 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 N. H., arranged for an early visit to Fogg at Bruns- 
 wick. 
 
 This visit was made in the first week of September, 
 1844. Bowdoin was then the victim of a summer 
 term, with the end — and the Commence- 
 Two MEN ment, too — coming in September ; and 
 
 FRon YALE, the Yale men seized a time when vaca- 
 tion at their own institution coincided 
 with term time at Bowdoin, to come to Brunswick in 
 furtherance of the matter which Shapleigh and Fogg 
 had already discussed by letter. They travelled from 
 Portsmouth to Brunswick by team, taking two days 
 for the trip. On the first day they came as far as 
 Portland, stopping for dinner at a famous old half-way 
 hostelry, and passing through Kennebunk, Old 
 Orchard and other little hamlets, long since grown 
 into famous summer resorts. On the next day they 
 completed their journey, and with the arrival on Bow- 
 doin's campus of these two Yale men, filled with the 
 mystery and importance of their errand, and wearing 
 upon their waistcoats a Fraternity pin for the first time 
 seen in Brunswick, began the tangible history of 
 Theta Chapter of A K E. 
 
 The object of this visit was not long to be kept a 
 secret in the little College comm.unity. Prof. Packard, 
 who was Shapleigh's cousin, received the young men 
 with decided coolness, for the Faculty did not look with 
 approval upon a new secret Fraternity — or upon the 
 two recently established in the College, for that mat- 
 ter — and was carried so far by his feeling that he 
 
TWO MEN FROM YALE. 1 3 
 
 refused Bartlett an invitation to a party he was about 
 to give. Upon this, Shapleigh also declined to attend, 
 and the two spent the evening in consultation with 
 some of the proposed charter members. It cannot 
 now be told where this consultation, and those which 
 followed it in the next few days and evenings, were 
 held. It is possible they were at the home of William 
 F. Jackson, '46, since it Avas there that the formal 
 organizaton of the Chapter was effected, two months 
 later. The record of those preliminary m.eetings was 
 never written, and the hands that could have written 
 it have long since crumbled to dust. It is certain that 
 the two Yale Juniors had a good time, and departed 
 for their homes most favorably impressed with the 
 Bowdoin men. A letter written by Bartlett, forty 
 years later, bears witness to these facts, though there 
 is no need of such evidence in view of the promptness 
 with which the charter was granted when it was peti- 
 tioned for, after the vacation. 
 
 Although Theta Chapter of the Delta Kappa Epsilon 
 
 Fraternity had its origin in the visit of Shapleigh and 
 
 Bartlett to Brunswick during the 
 
 Commencement season of 1844, it 
 
 INSTITUTION dates its actual existence as an organ- 
 
 OF ized body from Wednesday evening, 
 
 THETA CHAPTER. November 6, 1844. It is true that 
 
 November i, 1844, is the date upon the 
 
 faded parchment charter w^hich has 
 
 had a place of honor in the Chapter hall all these sixty 
 
 years, yet November 6 was the date when the eleven 
 
 charter members met for organization and were initi- 
 
14 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 ated by Thomas D. Sherwood, the delegate from the 
 Mother Chapter, Phi, at Yale, who came to Brunswick 
 for that purpose. 
 
 After the vacation was over and the Bowdoin stu- 
 dents had settled down to the work of another college 
 year, Fogg wrote to his friend Shapleigh at Yale, 
 The reply is still sacredly preserved in the archives of 
 Iheta Chapter. It is dated October 17, 1844, and 
 says : 'T received your letter of the 14th, yesterday, and 
 last evening laid it before the Society. Our secretary 
 will inform you of our proceedings." Written upon 
 the same sheet is a long letter from the secretary, 
 Edward G. Bartlett, which refers to the letter received 
 from Fogg as one whose object "appeared to be to 
 ascertain whether or not you could obtain a Chapter of 
 the A K E Society, Yale College." It goes on to 
 express the willingness of the Yale Chapter to grant 
 such a new Chapter, provided the petitioners at Bow- 
 doin become an organized body, pledging themselves to 
 be true to the secrets of A K E and to do all in their 
 power to advance its interests. The writer also 
 inquires particularly as to "the prospects of perpetuat- 
 ing such a Society at Bowdoin, as we should be unwil- 
 ling to have any Branch of A K E . expire inglori- 
 ously." He then adds. "If you should conclude to 
 become a part of us, and we feel assured that you will, 
 we cordially invite any one of your number you may 
 choose to send, to visit us and be regularly initiated," 
 etc. 
 
 This letter, being an official one on behalf of the Phi 
 Chapter, is in a somewhat formal style and has no

 reference to the visit of the writer to Bowdoin, two 
 months earher. From its contents it is certain that it 
 was the first communication received at Bowdoin from 
 Yale relative to the establishment of a Chapter of 
 A K E, if we except the personal letters which had 
 passed between Shapleigh and Fogg, previous to the 
 former's visit to Brunswick. The letter m.akes it 
 equally plain that the establishment of a Chapter at 
 Bowdoin was favorably considered by the Mother 
 Chapter on the evening of Wednesday, October i6, 
 1844, when the letter of Fogg to Shapleigh, written 
 October 14, was laid before it and discussed, with its 
 request given the personal endorsement of Shapleigh 
 and Bartlett. 
 
 The answer to this letter must have been both 
 prompt and satisfactory, for under date of October 30 
 another letter w^as sent from Yale to Bowdoin. This 
 was addressed to F. L. Knight, '46, and was signed by 
 A. Everett Stetson. It stated that the request for a 
 Chapter of A K E at Bowdoin had been granted and 
 that T. D. Sherwood had been delegated to go to 
 Brunswick, the following week to install the Chapter. 
 Mr. Shervvood arrived in due time, and on Wednes- 
 day evening, November 6, 1844, he met the prospective 
 members at the room of W. F. Jackson, '46, and 
 initiated them into A K E. That the initiation cere- 
 monies of today differ in some of their details from 
 those performed on that memorable evening, need 
 hardly be stated. 
 
 The eleven charter members of the Chapter were 
 Lewis Goodrich and William Gates Dunlap of the

 class of 1845, ^^^ Levi Loring Bradbury, Thornton 
 Cutts Emery, Charles Henry Emerson, John Samuel 
 Hill Fogg, Stephen Abbott Holt, William Francis 
 Jackson, Francis Lafayette Knight, James Brown 
 Thornton, and George Barnard Upham of the class of 
 1846. The Chapter was organized with the choice of 
 Goodrich, president ; Dunlap, vice president ; Fogg, 
 secretary; Jackson, corresponding secretary, and 
 Emery, treasurer ; while Dunlap and Knight were 
 chosen to deliver the oration and poem at the next elec- 
 tion of officers. A tax of $1.50 was assessed on each 
 member as an initiation fee. It was voted that it be 
 left with the Yale Chapter to name the new Chapter, 
 and it was not until August of the following year that 
 it was notified that it was to be known as the Theta 
 Chapter. At that first meeting it was also voted that 
 instead of the word ''YALE" under the scroll on the 
 pin, — or ''badge" as it was then called, — there be 
 inscribed the letters "BOWD." This odd abbrevia- 
 tion of the name of the College actually appeared upon 
 the pins until 1851 and then for twenty years or more 
 they bore the full word "BOWDOIN." Jackson, 
 Knight and Upham were chosen a committee to secure 
 pins for the members and also to engage a suitable 
 room as a meeting place. 
 
 The eleven charter members of the Chapter, two 
 
 Seniors and nine Juniors, were beyond ques- 
 CHARTER tion among the strongest men of the College 
 MEMBERS, at that time. They came of good families, 
 
 were sound scholars and were active in 
 •undergraduate affairs. The early records and corre- 
 
THE CHARTER MEMBERS. 1 7 
 
 spondence show how earnestly and loyally they devoted 
 themselves to the welfare of the Fraternity, and with 
 what thoroughness and care they laid the firm founda- 
 tion upon which have been built sixty years of unin- 
 terrupted progress and prosperity. There were 
 obstacles to overcome, but nothing daunted them. 
 They were made of sturdy stuff, those Dekes of old, 
 and the heritage of their invincible spirit has been an 
 inspiration to the generations that have followed them. 
 
 Lewis Goodrich, who was older than any of his asso- 
 ciates, was the head of the new Chapter, and his name 
 is the only one which appears upon the charter, the 
 others being grouped as his ''associates." In later 
 years he gave his two sons to A K E, both being 
 members of the Sigma Chapter at Amherst. He spent 
 his life in the Congregational ministry. Shortly 
 before his death, which occurred in 1898, he wrote to 
 the Chapter and sent it his picture which now hangs in 
 the Chapter hall. The other charter member from 
 the Senior class, William Gates Dunlap, was a mem- 
 ber of the famous Dunlap family of Brunswick. After 
 graduation he engaged in trade in Hawaii. He died in 
 Olympia, Washington, in 1862. 
 
 Three others of the charter members also died in the 
 far West. They were Bradbury, a lawyer, who died 
 in Montgomery, Texas, in i860, being the first of the 
 charter members to die ; Emery, who was the only one 
 of the eleven who did not remain to graduate, who died 
 in California; and Emerson, a Congregational clergy- 
 man, who died in Seattle, Washington, in 1902. The 
 last named was the last survivor of the charter mem- 
 
l8 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 bers, and for fifty-eight years he maintained the warm- 
 est interest in the Chapter and the Fraternity in general. 
 He wrote frequently to the Chapter and kept closely in 
 touch with its affairs. Only a few months before his 
 death, being then eighty-four years of age, he wrote a 
 long letter to the Chapter, congratulating it upon its 
 beautiful new house and expressing his regret that he 
 would never see it. The photograph of himself which 
 he sent at that time is a treasured relic in the house. 
 
 Three became physicians, Jackson, Fogg and 
 Upham, and all enjoyed long years of usefulness 
 among men. Jackson died in Boston in 1879; Fogg 
 in Boston in 1893 ; and Upham in Yonkers, N. Y., in 
 1889. Upham was the only one of the charter mem- 
 bers who was not a native of Maine. Fogg was really 
 the leader in the establishment of the Chapter, for it 
 "was through his acquaintance with Shapleigh of Yale 
 that the suggestion of a Chapter of A K E at Bow- 
 doin was first made, and he opened the correspondence 
 which brought about the desired result. He was also 
 one of the delegates, Jackson being the other, sent to 
 organize and initiate the Chapter at Waterville, and he 
 was prominent in the correspondence which resulted in 
 the establishment of Sigma Chapter at Amherst. His 
 interest in the Fraternity was unabated to the end. 
 His son was a member of the Alpha Chapter at Har- 
 vard in the class of '73. In the closing years of his 
 life, when he was helpless with paralysis, he found 
 diversion in making one of the best collections of auto- 
 graphs in America. This collection, valued at $25,000, 
 he bequeathed to the Maine Historical Society. Like 
 
THE FIRST YEAR. I9 
 
 his friend Shapleigh, he represented one of Ehot's best 
 old families, and for his benefactions his native tov/n 
 will always hold him in grateful remembrance. 
 
 The remaining three, like Goodrich and Emerson, 
 did faithful service in the Christian ministry. Knight, 
 who ranked highest in scholarship among the eleven, 
 died in Washington, D. C, in 1876; Holt, who gave up 
 the ministry and became a prosperous merchant, died 
 in Boston in 1895 ; and Thornton at Scarboro in 1888, 
 being the only one of the eleven to end his days in 
 the State where ten of them were born. It is worth 
 noting that it was for Holt's use that Elijah Kellogg, 
 then a young pastor at Harpswell and a warm personal 
 friend of Holt, wrote his immortal declamation 
 ''Regulus to the Carthaginians." This was declaimed 
 by Holt at the Junior Prize Speaking, August 25, 1845, 
 winning the jEirst prize. 
 
 The first meeting of Theta Chapter, November 6, 
 1844, was held, as has been said, in the room of W. F. 
 Jackson, '46. This room was at the home of 
 THE ^^^ parents in Brunswick. The two subse- 
 FiRST quent meetings which were held that term 
 YEAR, were also held here, and then the Chapter met 
 in the hall, or ''room" as it is always called in 
 the records, which the committee had secured for the 
 purpose. This room w^as engaged of "Mr. Cushing" 
 so the records state, but its location cannot now be 
 learned. It was occupied only until August, 1846, 
 when a larger hall, with commodious anterooms, on 
 the third floor of the old Dunlap Block on Maine 
 Street, a building since replaced by the new Dunlap 
 
20 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Block, was engaged for the same rental, $20 per 
 annum. This continued to be the meeting place of the 
 chapter for twenty years. The room first engaged was 
 fitted up at an expense of $28.03, o^ which $17 was 
 paid for chairs, $6.75 for a stove, $2.50 for lamps, 33 
 cents for a mat, 20 cents for a ''lamp feeder," and 95 
 cents for postage. Later the luxury of a desk was 
 added, ''similar to that in Odd Fellows' hall." 
 
 The meeting place of the Chapter in those early 
 years was kept a profound secret from the world in 
 general and from the other Fraternities in the College 
 in particular, and the members were accustomed to go 
 to it singly and by devious routes on the evenings when 
 meetings were held. In the early years the meetings 
 were held once in two weeks on Monday evenings, 
 though special meetings were often called as circum- 
 stances demanded. The regard in which attendance 
 at meetings was held is shown by the fact that for 
 many years a fine of 25 cents was imposed for each 
 absence for which a good excuse was not presented, 
 and the names of absent members were recorded in 
 the minutes of each meeting. 
 
 Theta Chapter began its existence with a member- 
 ship of eleven, but this was quickly increased. At tne 
 same meeting when the Chapter was organized, 
 November 6, 1844, three members of the class of '47, 
 then Sophomores, were elected to membership, Jona- 
 than Greenleaf Eveleth, Samuel Wesley Hatch and 
 Charles Henry Wheeler; and at the second meeting, 
 November 11, Napoleon Bonapart Ward, of the same 
 class, was added to the number. These four students 
 
THE FIRST YEAR. 21 
 
 were initiated on the following evening, November 12 ; 
 or, in the words of the record, ''having taken the 
 afhrmation of secrecy, received the right hand of fel- 
 lowship from the Fraternity and signed the constitu- 
 tion, were constituted brethren by our mystic band." 
 This first initiation took place in the room of Jackson 
 where the earlier meetings had been held. It was the 
 last regular meeting held there, though special meet- 
 ings wiic occasionally held there through the f ^1 'ow- 
 ing year. 
 
 No members were added during the following 
 Winter months, but, April 7, 1845, Anson Gancello 
 Stmchfield, '47, was initiated. Early in the Summer 
 term, July 14, six more members were admitted. 
 They were Isaac Stevens Metcalf, '47, and Isaac 
 Winslow Case, Edmund Hayes, Samuel Fisher 
 Humphrey, Lafayette Grover, and Eliphalet Franklin 
 Packard, all from the class of '48. This raised the 
 membership of the Chapter to twenty-two, but as the 
 constitution then provided that the number of members 
 in a Chapter should at no time exceed eighteen and 
 should ordinarily be only fifteen, the Chapter had 
 passed a by-law, June 16, with the somewhat remark- 
 able provision that no person should be regarded as a 
 "constitutional member" until the last term of Sopho- 
 more year. This resulted in a peculiar state of affairs 
 within the Chapter which was relieved, however, when 
 the Mother Chapter in October, 1845, agreed to a 
 change in the constitution making the limit twenty-two 
 members instead of eighteen. At the first Convention 
 of the Fraternity, held at Yale, December 23, 1846, the 
 
2.2 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 clause limiting the membership of a Chapter was 
 stricken from the constitution. 
 
 With the membership of Theta at twenty-two when 
 the end of the first college year was reached, it sus- 
 tained its first loss in the graduation of Goodrich and 
 Dunlap and the withdrawal of Emery from College on 
 account of ill health. 
 
 There is an interesting story connected with the 
 manner in which the existence of Theta of A K E 
 was first made known to the other students 
 STORY ^^ Bowdoin. It was the purpose of the 
 
 OF founders to keep the existence of the Chap- 
 
 THE PINS, ter a secret until the beginning of the Spring 
 term when they proposed to appear in public 
 for the first time wearing their pins. A vote to this 
 effect was passed at the first meeting. But the secret 
 came out in the most unexpected manner through the 
 ordering of the pins from the New Haven jewellers 
 who had made those for Phi Chapter at Yale. The 
 letter was sent to Dury & Peck, booksellers, instead of 
 to Brown & Kirby, jewellers, the mistake being that of 
 Sherwood who gave the Bowdoin men the wrong 
 address. Dury & Peck could not understand its con- 
 tents, but seeing that it concerned jewellry they took 
 it to Brown & Kirby who occupied a neighboring store. 
 This firm, finding Sherwood's name in it, sent it to his 
 room in the Yale yard to get more information on the 
 mysterious commission which it contained. 
 
 Sherwood happened to be out, but his roommate was 
 in, and that young man was a member of Psi Upsilon. 
 The open letter was left there to await Sherwood's 
 
STORY OF THE PINS. 23 
 
 return, and the roommate, forgetting certain ethical 
 principles with which, as a Yale Junior, he was pre- 
 sumably acquainted, proceeded to read it. It is easy to 
 imagine his amazement at its contents. The new 
 society, which, though less than six months old, was 
 proving a worthy rival of the two older societies at 
 Yale, had become more than a local affair and had 
 entered the world of intercollegiate Greek-letter Fra- 
 ternities by establishing a Chapter at Bowdoin ! Pos- 
 sibly, as this intelligence dawned upon him, there 
 flashed across his mind visions of the coming years 
 with A K E the greatest and strongest of them all, 
 standing the acknowledged head of college Fraterni- 
 ties. But whatever else he thought of, he did not 
 think to tell Sherwood that he had read the letter, and 
 he lost no time in informing his Psi Upsilon brethren 
 of his startling discovery. They in turn hurried a 
 letter off to Kappa Chapter of Psi Upsilon at Bow- 
 doin, and this communication is understood to have 
 been the first intimation to others at the College that 
 A K E was in existence at Bowdoin, though it had 
 certainly been suspected that a movement for a Chapter 
 was on foot. 
 
 The matter of the pins was straightened out in due 
 time and they arrived early in March, 1845 5 ^^<^ 
 although their appearance did not cause the surprise 
 that had been hoped for, they were worn with none 
 the less pride. And from that day to this, the diamond 
 bearing ''the stars and scroll and the mystic letters 
 three" has been proudly and worthily worn by the sons 
 
24 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 of Theta, both on old Bowdoin's campus and through- 
 out the length and breadth of the land. 
 
 One of the first important things which Theta of 
 A K E proceeded to do as soon as it was firmly 
 established was to take steps toward 
 ESTABLISHMENT forming a Chapter of the Fraternity 
 OF XI CHAPTER. at Colby — then Waterville — College. 
 A search of the records and corre- 
 spondence of that period brings out the curious fact, 
 however, that the Chapter at Waterville is not so old by 
 a year as it is commonly credited with being. The 
 General Catalogue of the Fraternity states that the 
 Chapter was chartered June 25, 1845, ^^^ that, to be 
 sure, is the date which the charter bears. The Chapter 
 even celebrated its semi-centennial during the Com- 
 mencement week of June, 1895, with public exercises 
 which included a history, an oration and a poem by dis- 
 tinguished alumni, and a splendid gathering of its 
 loyal members from far and near. 
 
 But in the interests of historical accuracy it should 
 be stated that Xi Chapter was not established, nor, in 
 fact, petitioned for, until June, 1846, a fact which is 
 easily enough demonstrated. The mistake doubtless 
 arose from a mistake in dating the charter. Thiy 
 document was not made out and given to the Chapter 
 until the convention which was held at Yale, December 
 23, 1846, and in filling in the date somebody blundered 
 and wrote "1845" instead of ''1846." If the mistake 
 was noticed it was never corrected ; and as years passed 
 by and few bothered to make themselves familiar with 
 
ESTABLISHMENT OF XI CHAPTER. 2^ 
 
 I 
 
 the early records, it was natural that the date borne by 
 the charter was accepted without question. 
 
 Among the old letters filed away in the archives of 
 Theta, the first referring to a proposition to establish a 
 Chapter at Waterville is one from J. G. Eveleth, '47, 
 who was teaching in Lisbon, to W. F. Jackson, '46. It 
 is dated October 11, 1845, ^^^ states that the writer 
 has communicated with Hatch at Waterville, "who, 
 you know, is a good scholar and a good fellow," — 
 showing the early A K E ideal, — in the matter of 
 introducing a Chapter at Waterville ; and that "Hatch 
 has talked it over with some of the best fellows in 
 Waterville who highly approve of the plan and will 
 take hold with heart and hand." Eveleth goes on to 
 say that no society has yet been established there and 
 the time is favorable if prompt action is taken. 
 
 The next letter is one to Jackson from Hatch, under 
 date of October 29, 1845. Hatch was teaching in Sid- 
 ney, but had visited Waterville after hearing from 
 Eveleth and writes that he "disclosed the affair with 
 due caution," with the result that "there are now six 
 of us in the arrangement" — Drummond, Starkey, 
 True, Ware, Palmer and himself. "We think it best, 
 if a Chapter is to be established at Waterville. that it 
 be done as soon as practicable. If six of us are not 
 enough to be united, we will have more forthwith." 
 This letter was followed November 6, 1845 — when 
 Theta was exactly one year old, — by one to Jackson 
 from Josiah H. Drummond who confined himself

 that Faculty opposition would endanger the success of

 a Chapter in Waterville. He said that the article in the 
 college laws forbidding secret societies was aimed at 
 "rowdy societies which formerly prevailed to such a 
 degree at Waterville, and did not have in view such 
 societies as A K E. We are willing to take the risk. 
 I think the Faculty is not so blinded as not to allow 
 such a society. I think I know they have the interests 
 of the college too much at heart to put us down." He 
 did not think it was necessary to petition the college 
 overseers, as had evidently been suggested in Jackson's 
 letter, and signed himself ''yours in the anticipation of 
 a close bond of brotherhood." 
 
 While this correspondence was going on, the Phi 
 Chapter had been communicated with on the subject 
 by the members of Theta. At first the answer was 
 unfavorable. Under date of November 14, 1845, 
 Thomas Y. Simmons of the Yale Chapter wrote : "Our 
 Branch is of the opinion that it would not be productive 
 of any benefit to the Fraternity, and would prefer it not 
 being put into effect." Then more persuasive letters 
 were sent from Brunswick to New Haven and the cor- 
 responding secretary of Phi wrote, January 7, 1846 : 
 "We have reconsidered our decision regarding the 
 establishment of a Branch at Waterville, and upon your 
 representation of the advantages have passed a resolu- 
 tion authorizing you to found a Branch there." 
 
 This letter reached Brunswick during the long 
 Winter vacation which then prevailed and it was not 
 until the evening of Wednesday, February 25, 1846, 
 that it was read to the members of Theta in meeting 
 assembled. The matter was discussed and it was 
 
ESTABLISHMENT OF XI CHAPTER. 2J 
 
 voted to defer action until a later meeting. The 
 records of the Chapter do not mention the subject again 
 until we come to those of May 14 when there is this 
 important entry : "The question of establishing a 
 Chapter of the Society at Waterville was then dis- 
 cussed, and on motion of Hawkins it was voted to 
 establish a Chapter there, provided that matters shall 
 appear favorable. Metcalf and Hayes were chosen a 
 committee to visit Waterville in the vacation and make 
 arrangements about the affair." The visit was made, 
 and doubtless matters appeared favorable, for at the 
 first meeting of the Summer term, June 17, 1846, Jack- 
 son and Fogg were appointed a committee to go to 
 Waterville and establish a Chapter, the cautious clause 
 "if practicable" being added to their instructions. 
 
 In the meantime urgent letters had been coming 
 from Waterville. Hatch wrote, May 16, that he was 
 anxious to know of the conclusion reached regarding 
 a Chapter at Waterville. He said: "There is an 
 influence here in favor of Psi Upsilon. There is con- 
 siderable said about forming a Chapter of that here, 
 and we can give no answer to those wishing us to 
 enter the scheme with them until we have an answer as 
 10 the A K E." On June 8, Drummond wrote a 
 letter of much the same tenor, mentioning also his 
 earnest desire that the Chapter be formed as soon as 
 possible, since he and one other of the prospective 
 members would graduate, two months later. He also 
 dwelt upon the efforts of Psi Upsilon to get into the 
 college first, and expressed the fear that some of "our 
 fellows" might get tired of waiting and join that. 
 
28 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 This letter was followed by the formal petition for 
 a Chapter at Waterville. It is dated June 22, 1846, is 
 addressed ''To the President and other Officers and 
 Brethren of the A K E Society, Theta Chap., Bowd. 
 Coll.," and is signed by George R. Starkey, (in whose 
 copperplate chirography the petition is drawn), 
 Josiah H. Drummond, David S. True, Henry I. 
 Ware, Horatio Q. Butterfield, Ephriam W. Young, G. 
 M. D. L. Palmer, and Walter M. Hatch. 
 
 Upon receipt of this petition, and spurred to prompt 
 and decisive action by the warning of Psi Upsilon's 
 attempt to get ahead of them, Jackson and Fogg, as 
 authorized by the Chapter proceeded to Waterville, and 
 on the evening of Thursday, June 25, 1846, initiated 
 the petitioners into the mysteries of A K E and insti- 
 tuted the Chapter. The meeting was held in No. 27, 
 North College, since destroyed by fire. Three men 
 were initiated who were not among the petitioners, 
 Stephen L. Bowler, Alexander Gamble and Benjamin 
 W. Dean ; while two of the petitioners, Palmer and 
 True, were not present and were initiated by the 
 Chapter a little later. In the records of Theta for the 
 meeting of July 8, 1846, appears this entry: ''The com- 
 mittee chosen to establish a Chapter of the Society at 
 Waterville College then reported that they visited 
 Waterville for that purpose and initiated nine members 
 of that college into the fellowship of Delta Kappa 
 Epsilon." 
 
 Thus was born Xi of A K E, the pioneer in the 
 Fraternity system at Colby, and always since its estab- 
 lishment a strong and loyal Chapter of our great 
 
EARLY INCIDENTS. 29 
 
 brotherhood. It was the fourth Chapter of A K E, 
 Zeta at Princeton, estabHshed in August, 1845, being 
 the third. The relations between Theta and Xi have 
 always been close and cordial. In the records of 
 Theta for September 2, 1846, we find the following- 
 mention of the institution of a most commendable cus- 
 tom : ''The meeting was rendered peculiarly pleasant 
 by the presence of Brothers Bowler, Fairbanks, 
 Gamble, Hatch, True, Ware, Butterfield and Young 
 of the Waterville Chapter who all expressed them- 
 selves as highly gratified by the exercises of the even- 
 ing." It was on the occasion of this visit to Bow- 
 doin that the members of the new Chapter first 
 appeared in public wearing their pins. A little later a 
 delegation from Theta attended a meeting of Xi ; and 
 many the visits and still more frequent the exchanges 
 of letters in the years that followed. 
 
 The records of Theta's early meetings abound in 
 references to occasions when there was "a feast of 
 reason and a flow of wit," but the first 
 EARLY "feed," in the modern acceptance of the 
 
 INCIDENTS, term, in which the young Chapter indulged, 
 was on the evening of September 3, 1845. 
 It was the last meeting of the Summer term and con- 
 sequently the last meeting of the Chapter's first year, 
 and it was made a gala occasion in various ways. 
 Four honorary members, all young alumni, were 
 initiated, of whom we will speak later ; there was an 
 oration on "The Connection Between Religion and 
 Politics," by Dunlap, '45, "even more than fulfilling 
 the expectations of the most zealous ;" also a poem by 
 
30 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Knight, '46, ''displaying much originaUty of thought 
 and power of imagination ; * * * =h after which Hter- 
 ary feasts the Society administered to their physical 
 wants from a splendid collation prepared by the com- 
 mittee previously appointed." 
 
 The imagination is not forced to a difficult or 
 unpleasant task when it pictures the scene. The 
 records of the meeting go on to state the interesting 
 fact that ''the festivities of the evening were much 
 heightened by the presence of two of our Yale breth- 
 ren, Messrs. Shapleigh and Bartlett, who joyously par- 
 took with us in our feasts of fat things, literary and 
 convivial." These brothers had both visited Bowdoin 
 before in the interests of forming the Chapter, but as 
 this was the first time that a member of Phi had been 
 at Bowdoin since Sherwood came to institute Theta 
 Chapter, it is the first instance in the history of 
 A K E where members of one Chapter visited 
 another. It was just a year earlier than the visit of the 
 eight Colby brethren, referred to on a previous page, 
 which was doubtless the second instance of the kind. 
 
 On the second anniversary of its establishment, 
 November 6, 1846, Theta received the first addition to 
 its membership from the ranks of a sister Chapter. 
 This was in the person of Henry I. Ware, '47, one of 
 the charter members of Xi, who had severed his con- 
 nection with Waterville College and become a stu- 
 dent at Bowdoin. He was at once elected to member- 
 ship in Theta and warmly welcomed into the full fel- 
 lowship of the Chapter. He v/as the first of twelve 
 
EARLY INCIDENTS. 3 1 
 
 members of Xi who have come to Bowdoin and affiU- 
 ated with Theta Chapter. 
 
 The first Convention of the A K E Fraternity was 
 held with Phi at New Haven, December 23, 1846, and 
 Theta sent as delegates Isaac S. Metcalf and Henry 
 I. Ware, both of '47. The Fraternity consisted at that 
 time of four Chapters besides the Mother Chapter at 
 Yale, Theta at Bowdoin, Zeta at Princeton, Xi at Colby 
 and Sigma at Amherst, the last named being only a 
 month old. The Bowdoin delegates related to 
 their brethren at the meeting of February 15, 
 1847, the doings of the Convention. The con- 
 stitution was amicnded in several important 
 respects ; the Chapter officers were given the desig- 
 nations by which they have since been known ; 
 the initiation ritual was enlarged and improved; 
 charters were given by Phi to the four Chapters 
 which up to that time had existed and done business 
 without any such written authority ; and by the gath- 
 ering and conference of the delegates the Fraternity 
 was strengthened in every respect. 
 
 The first break made by death in the ranks of 
 A K E at Bowdoin, or in the whole Fraternity, for 
 that matter, came when Henry I. Ware, '47, spoken 
 of above as coming from Xi Chapter and as a dele- 
 gate to the first Convention, died of consumption at his 
 home in Athens in July, 1847. He had nearly com- 
 pleted his college course, but failing health compelled 
 him to give up and go to his home in the Spring of 
 1847. To all in the Chapter his death was that of a 
 brother and the mentions of it in the records are such 
 
32 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILOi:. 
 
 that no doubt is left of the depth of the sorrow felt by 
 his fellow members. For the first time crepe was 
 worn upon the pins of the Fraternity. A constitu- 
 tional amendment was discussed, providing for such an 
 outward mark of respect- and sorrow in case of a 
 deceased brother, and there was correspondence con- 
 cerning it among the Chapters, but finally it was 
 decided that it would destroy its highest significance 
 if it were made a constitutional obligation. 
 
 Under date of October 12, 1847, ^ letter was 
 received from Phi Chapter, enclosing resolutions of 
 respect and sympathy passed at the first meeting after 
 the Summer vacation, and stating that it had been 
 voted that all members should wear crepe on their 
 badges for a period of thirty days. This speaks most 
 eloquently of the closeness of the bond between the 
 Chapters in those early years. 
 
 The second death in the Chapter, and the third in 
 the Fraternity at large, was that of Edmund Hayes, 
 '48. At the end of his Junior year, while holding the 
 highest office in the Chapter, he was compelled by ill 
 health to give up his college work and travelled in the 
 West. At two o'clock on the morning of August 2, 
 1848, while landing from a steamboat at Cleveland, 
 Ohio, he lost his footing, fell into the lake and was 
 drowned. By a sad coincidence, he died on the day 
 when his class was receiving its final examinations 
 before graduation. The news reached Brunswick, 
 August 4, and a special meeting of the Chapter was at 
 once called at which fitting resolutions were passed 
 and the pins ordered draped for a period of fifteen

 days. A younger brother of the deceased was a mem- 
 ber of the Chapter at that time. 
 
 The matter of the election of honorary members early 
 engaged the attention of Theta Chapter. We read in 
 the records of June 16, 1845, that a commit- 
 OUR ^^^ ^^^ ^^^^ evening appointed to consider 
 
 HONORARY the advisability of admitting such members. 
 nEriBERS. This committee communicated with the 
 Mother Chapter at Yale upon the subject, 
 and at the meeting of August 13 a letter from Phi, 
 written July 31, was read in which it was stated that a 
 by-law had been adopted, providing for honorary 
 members but limiting them to the graduates of the 
 college where the Chapter was located. This authority 
 was all that Theta was waiting for, and it promptly 
 elected four young alumni to honorary membership. 
 They were initiated, September 3, 1845, ^.t the last 
 meeting of Theta's first year. On this occasion, as 
 related earlier, the Chapter indulged in its first ban- 
 quet and the festivities were honored by the presence 
 of two members of the Phi Chapter. The honorary 
 members initiated that evening, were James Drum- 
 mond, '36, Leonard P. Merrill, '42, Albion W. Knight, 
 '41, and Thomas J. W. Pray, '44. 
 
 During the next two or three years many honorary 
 members were elected. By some unaccountable over- 
 sight the General Catalogue of the Fraternity, issued 
 in 1890, gives the names of only five of Theta's hon- 
 orary members, and doubtless this circumstance has 
 deceived many of our younger alumni as to the facts 
 of the case, particularly as the same error was made in 
 
34 
 
 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 the Catalogue of 1900 and in other Hsts that have been 
 published. As a matter of fact the total number of 
 Theta's honorary members is twenty-six of whom 
 three are now living. The records are plain enough in 
 this matter. The date of election is known in each 
 instance, and in many cases the letters of acceptance 
 are on file in the archives. 
 
 Some of the earlier honorary members were initiated 
 with the same ceremonies that marked the reception of 
 undergraduate members, and like them signed their 
 names to the constitution and by-laws. Some of them 
 frequently attended the meetings of the Chapter and 
 took part in its exercises. Thus at the meeting of 
 September 2, 1846, — the meeting, as it happened, when 
 letters accepting honorary membership were read from 
 Seba Smith, '18, and Nathaniel Hawthorne, '25, — an 
 oration was delivered by Leonard P. Merrill, '42, and 
 a poem by Albion W. Knight, '41, who had been initi- 
 ated as honorary members, a year earlier. Some of 
 the honorary members were relatives of undergrad- 
 uates ; some lived in Brunswick ; some were in the 
 Medical School; and some were teachers in prepara- 
 tory schools where the infant Chapter evidently felt 
 that a good word in its behalf would not be amiss. 
 
 Of the twenty-six honorary members, nineteen were 
 elected in the first three years of the Chapter's exist- 
 ence; one was elected in 1858, and six in 1869, when 
 the general Convention of the Fraternity was held at 
 Bowdoin. Thus thirty-five years have passed since 
 Theta Chapter elected an honorary member, and the 
 possibility that the number will ever be added to is 
 
d.e.1.

 precluded by a change in the Fraternity constitution 
 made by the general Convention a year or two ago. 
 
 At first each Chapter could elect its honorary mem- 
 bers as it pleased, the only restriction being that they 
 should be graduates of the college where it was located. 
 In May, 1847, by consent of the Phi Chapter, the con- 
 stitution was amended so that the concurrent vote of 
 two-thirds of the other Chapters w^as made necessary to 
 the electon of an honorary member by any Chapter, 
 At the same time the clause restricting such members 
 to the alumni of the college was repealed. The reason 
 why this latter change was made is apparent in Theta's 
 prompt election and initiation of S. Augustus Lord, a 
 graduate of Dartmouth, '43, then attending the Bow- 
 doin Medical School. Nevertheless, of Theta's 
 twenty-six honorary members, twenty were graduates 
 of Bowdoin, and three of the others later received hon- 
 orary degrees from Bowdoin. It is interesting to note 
 that these honorary members have given thirteen sons 
 to active membership in the Fraternity, seven of the 
 sons being members of Theta Chapter, three of Alpha 
 at Harvard, two of Phi at Yale, and one of Sigma at 
 Amherst. 
 
 Three of our honorary members are still living: 
 George F. Dunning, a Brunswick citizen, long in gov- 
 ernment service and now residing at Farmington, 
 Conn. ; Josiah L. Pickard, '44, whose four brothers 
 became active members of A K E and whose life has 
 been spent in educational work in the West; and 
 Eugene Hale, United States Senator from Maine since 
 1881, who was elected to honorary membership in 1869, 
 
36 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 the year that his brother, who was an active member of 
 Theta, graduated from Bowdoin. Brief sketches of 
 each of the twenty-six are given in the membership 
 catalogue later in this volume. 
 
 Our Fraternity no longer sanctions the election of 
 honorary members, and in these days when A K E 
 is great and powerful, the restriction is a wise one. 
 But in the early days — and it is well tO' remember that 
 nearly all of Theta's honorary members were elected 
 in the first three years of its life, and none more 
 recently than thirty-five years ago — it was undoubt- 
 edly a source of strength to have the help and friend- 
 ship of a few young alumni who were active and 
 influential. Rivalries were stronger then; there was 
 Faculty opposition, and in many ways the Chapter had 
 much more to contend with than in later years. The 
 election of honorary members was not the selection of 
 a few famous names to bolster up the Chapter, for it 
 will be observed that practically all of Theta's honor- 
 ry members who have become famous won their suc- 
 cess and distinction after, and not before, their election 
 to A K E, thus giving the Fraternity much greater 
 reason to be proud of their connection with it. 
 
 Thus John A. Andrew was elected to honorary mem- 
 bership in Theta of A K E fifteen years before he 
 became war governor of Massachusetts ; Nathaniel 
 Hawthorne, long before he wrote his immortal master- 
 pieces ; Eugene Hale, before Maine ever sent him to 
 Washington ; John Searle Tenney, ten years before he 
 became Chief Justice of Maine; James G. Blaine, 
 before he became a great leader in national politics;

 and Josiah L. Pickard, forty years before he became a 
 university president. 
 
 Frequently throughout this history there are refer- 
 ences to the early correspondence of Theta Chapter. 
 It is a matter of congratulation that 
 EARLY the letters received from other 
 
 CORRESPONDENCE. Chapters and from individuals were 
 faithfully preserved; and half a 
 doztrj years ago, a special committee on the archives, 
 of which the leading spirit and chief worker was 
 Arthur Huntington Nason, '99, carefully arranged 
 these letters in files by years, making them easy of 
 access and putting at the disposal of the Fraternity his- 
 torian almost unlimited material. This material is 
 largely of more direct interest to the general Fraternity, 
 or to certain other Chapters, since the correspondence 
 pri^s< 1 ved is of necessity one-sided, and the early let- 
 ters sent out by Theta, which would be priceless in the 
 preparation of a work of this kind, are not available. 
 
 Never-' heless the letters received in those first years, 
 however indirectly many of them bear on the history 
 of our own Chapter, are of absorbing interest. They 
 show the loyalty that from the first characterized mem- 
 bers of A K E; the tireless activity in Fraternity 
 affairs ; the determination not to be outdone by any 
 rival ; and the progressive spirit that put our Fraternity 
 at the front and kept it there. The letters were often 
 many pages long, discussing in detail and with the 
 greatest freedom affairs in the Chapter and in the col- 
 lege. Of course, in later years when the Chapters were 
 more numerous, the letters were often formal and per- 
 
38 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 functory, containing merely the list of officers or a few 
 lines as to conditions and prospects; but for the first 
 decade or more, though the Chapters were scattered 
 from Maine to Tennessee and Mississippi, the bond 
 between them was so close that the letters were as 
 those of the members of a family separated for a time. 
 The power of the Mother Chapter, Phi, was almost 
 absolute in those days, and the respect paid her by the 
 others was only equalled by the benignity of her rule. 
 Only three general Conventions were held in the first 
 decade, and the matter of new Chapters, honorary 
 members, constitutional changes and almost all affairs 
 relating to^ the general Fraternity were arranged by 
 letter. This correspondence was to the young Fra- 
 ternity what the Council and Quarterly have become to 
 it in its years of maturity and power. The war time 
 correspondence is referred to elsewhere. After the 
 war, with the increase in the number of Chapters and 
 the holding of yearly Conventions, there were not many 
 such letters exchanged as in the old times. There 
 were elaborate resolutions announcing the death of 
 alumni members, and printed forms filled in with the 
 list of officers, but the files show few other communi- 
 cations. If they were received there was certainly less 
 care in their preservation. Then came the Quarterly 
 with its articles and Chapter letters, which, for over a 
 score of years, has kept the chapters in close touch 
 with each other and with A K E affairs much better 
 than could any system of correspondence in a Fra- 
 ternity of our size. 
 
EARLY CORRESPONDENCE. 39 
 
 Let US glance through the old files at a few of the 
 many letters treasured there. The letters from Yale 
 relative to the establishment of a Chapter at Bowdoin 
 have been earlier referred to. After the Chapter was 
 organized, November 6, 1844, the first communication 
 it received was one from the Phi Chapter, November 
 29, which began as follows : ''The prosperity of A K E 
 at Bowdoin being a matter of the greatest concern 
 to her elder sister at Yale, the Society has thought best 
 that a correspondence should regularly be kept up 
 between the kindred two. Accordingly they have 
 directed their corresponding secretary to enquire into 
 the condition of your Branch, how it takes with the 
 other Societies and members of college, and what in 
 short your prospects are." In concluding, the letter 
 says : ''There is not one of our members who would 
 not lend heart and hand to your cause, and the prayer 
 of each is that you may prosper. I will only add that 
 the prospects of A K E at old Yale are bright." The 
 letter is signed by Thomas I. Franklin, one of the 
 charter members of Phi. Thus did the Mother Chapter 
 from the very first show tenderest solicitude for her 
 offspring, and thus was begun the intimate correspond- 
 ence which continued for years between Phi and Theta 
 and with each of the others as they were in turn estab- 
 lished. 
 
 Under date of June 8, 1845, Thomas D. Sherwood 
 writes of his pleasant memories of his visit to Bow- 
 doin, the previous November, when he came as the 
 delegate of Phi to establish Theta. He goes on to 
 say: "It is also a source of gratification to me to 
 
40 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 consider that my visit there was also the humble 
 instrument of so much good to the Society at Yale. It 
 delights us here to learn of your success ; and that 
 from being at first a worthy and able rival of the other 
 Societies of much 'greater antiquity/ you now bear off 
 the palm; that is, if report sayeth aright. The fact 
 is this. One of our members chanced to meet in his 
 ramblings during the last vacation a student from 
 Bowdoin. Talking of Societies, as is natural for all 
 students, the gentleman from Bowdoin remarked that 
 there was a new Society that was going altogether 
 ahead of the other two. The gentleman wore no pin. 
 He might have been a member of A K E. I hope he 
 was not, for the sake of the story; and if he was, I 
 hope and trust that what he said is true." The letter 
 concludes with an urgent invitation to send a represen- 
 tative down to the initiation at Yale, early in July. 
 
 The establishment of the third Chapter of the Fra- 
 ternity, the Psi Chapter at Princeton, later known as 
 the Zeta Chapter, was announced to Theta in a letter 
 from Phi, September 3, 1845. It was organized by 
 Thomas Y. Simmons, Yale, '47, who went to Princeton 
 for the purpose, the previous week. He writes : "I 
 was successful beyond my fondest anticipations ; not 
 that I deemed it impossible, but I thought the attain- 
 ment of such an object would have presented many 
 impediments and obstacles. This Branch has been 
 established solely in the Senior class of whom I had 
 the pleasure of initiating ten into the brotherhood and 
 mysteries ofAKE * * * * Their Branch has 
 been entitled the Psi Branch." Three weeks later came 
 
EARLY CORRESPONDENCE. 4I 
 
 the first letter from this new Chapter at Princeton, in 
 reply to one sent by Theta, giving a list of members 
 and explaining the local society system of Princeton. 
 A hall, formerly occupied by a Masonic Lodge, had 
 been rented by the Chapter, and it felt that its prospects j 
 
 were rosy. There was no hint of the Faculty opposi- i 
 
 tion that soon after killed the Chapter. | 
 
 A letter sent by Thomas Y. Simmons of Phi, Octo- : 
 
 ber 3, 1845, iTiakes it plain that the suggestion of a i 
 
 Chapter at Amherst was first made by the members of • 
 
 Theta, and doubtless by Fogg, '46, to whom the letter ' 
 
 was addressed. The letter states that the suggestion I 
 
 "meets with our most hearty approbation." Upon ! 
 
 receipt of this letter, Fogg at once wrote to his friend, ; 
 
 O. H. White, at Amherst, for the files preserve a letter \ 
 
 from White, written October 18, 1845, ''^^ reply to I 
 
 your letter of October 6." This letter states that ' 
 
 White and "a few confidential friend's" had examined i 
 
 the matter carefully and had found a few obstacles in j 
 
 the way of establishing a new Society at Amherst at I 
 
 that time. The chief obstacle seemed to be that the ] 
 
 existing Societies had charters from the college trustees j 
 
 whose next meeting was an indefinite time in the ] 
 
 future. For this reason it was deemed best to defer i 
 
 action for a time. In concluding, White wrote : ''We 
 shall hold ourselves in readiness for the establishment 
 of said Society or soon as it can be done with certainty 
 of success so as to be an honor to yourselves and to us. 
 WfC want to be sure it will live, and not only live, but 
 be the best Society in college. Then we are ready to 
 go ahead." This was the beginning, and a year later 
 
42 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Sigma of A K E was established. The first letter 
 received from Sigma is dated February i8, 1847, and 
 signed by Louis P. Ledoux. It is of considerable 
 length and has a most interesting account of condi- 
 tions at Amherst. 
 
 Another letter from Thomas Y. Simmons in Octo- 
 ber, 1845, gives authority to Theta Chapter to initiate 
 Allen H. Weld as an honorary member on behalf of 
 Phi Chapter. Mr. Weld was a graduate of Yale in 
 the class of ^34, and in 1845 was teaching in Maine at 
 North Yarmouth Academy. There is nothing in the 
 records, however, to show that the initiation ever took 
 place. A letter received the same month, from N. B. 
 Ward, '47, who had left Bowdoin and was attending a 
 medical school in Baltimore, states that he had been 
 looking over St. Mary's College in that city as a pos- 
 sible field for a Chapter of A K E. He was not 
 particularly impressed but proposed to make further 
 investigations. 
 
 In the section of this history relating to the estab- 
 lishment of Xi Chapter at Colby the correspondence 
 was frequently referred to and quoted from. The first 
 letter after the establishment of Xi was from George 
 R. Starkey, June 2.y, 1846, and its stately style, as well 
 as its subject matter, makes it worth quoting here: 
 "It is meet that we should take this early opportunity 
 to express our gratitude to your particular brotherhood 
 through whose exertions and instrumentality we have 
 obtained the privileges and honors to be derived from 
 a connection with the A K E Society. Truly it 
 should be a matter of congratulation to ourselves that 
 
EARLY CORRESPONDENCE. 43 
 
 we are able to claim kindred with congenial souls and 
 have that claim allowed. For an account of the 
 auspices under which a fourth Chapter of your order 
 has been opened we must refer you to your honorable 
 committee by whose courteous services we were 
 enabled to establish it." The letter speaks later of 
 having ordered twelve pins to bear ''the character 
 designating our Chapter, rather than the name of the 
 college abbreviated ;" and closes : "Adieu ; yours truly 
 on behalf of the Chapter at Waterville, Geo. R. 
 Starkey." Evidently the Chapter was not given its 
 designation as "Xi" at the time of establishment. 
 Probably that was a detail attended to by the Mother 
 Chapter at Yale. We have seen that our own Chapter 
 was not known as "Theta" until ten months after its 
 establishment. 
 
 The second letter received from the young Chapter 
 at Waterville was from Josiah H. Drummond, under 
 date of July i, 1846. Although the Chapter was only 
 a week old, the writer, with the zeal and thoroughness 
 that characterized his life work, was seeking light on 
 various parts of the constitution, and asked the Bow- 
 doin brethren to give their construction of several 
 articles. At the end of his letter we find some inter- 
 esting comment upon the unsuccessful attempt which 
 Psi Upsilon had made to get into Colby ahead of A K E. 
 He goes on to say : "They may be trying now, 
 and on account of this suspicion we shall hurry our 
 movements in regard to the Freshmen. Baker tried 
 some of our fellows but they were already pledged to 
 us. If we get the first choice in the Freshman class, 
 
44 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 all they can possibly get will not begin to compare with 
 our fellows, either in character or scholarship. I want 
 to see Ellis when he hears of the Chapter at this college. 
 'Twould be worth ten years of peaceful life to see his 
 indignation and rage." Probably the two men 
 referred to were Joseph W. Ellis, Bowdoin, '46, and 
 William M. Baker, Bowdoin, '47, both members of Psi 
 Upsilon. 
 
 A particularly breezy letter is that from E. P. Abbe 
 of the Phi Chapter, August 14, 1846. It calls Theta 
 ^'our dearest offspring, the apple of our eye;" refers 
 to Harvard as "a Boston High School;" declares "we 
 have the finest fellows of the whole college ;" and pays 
 respect to Psi Upsilon as "a feeble folk who have taken 
 the offscouring of our class." There is a letter from 
 Henry Hitchcock of Phi, May 7, 1847, which showed 
 that the ethics of the early years allowed considerable 
 latitude in the matter of prying into the affairs of rival 
 Fraternities, as various mottoes and grips are explained 
 with much detail and relish. The first letter from the 
 young Chapter at Nashville, June i, 1847, relates that 
 by some mistake the seal of the Chapter bore the letter 
 "Tau" instead of ''Gamma," and there seemed to b^. 
 doubt in the mind of the writer whether it would be 
 easier to get another seal or change the designation of 
 the Chapter. 
 
 James Wheeler Raynor, Amherst, '48, one of the 
 charter members of Sigma, in a long letter June 2, 
 1847, writes: ''Our present object is to lay the foun- 
 dations of our Chapter deep and strong and broad, on 
 which we hope to see arise a structure beautiful and 
 
EARLY CORRESPONDENCE. 45 
 
 majestic, possessed of the grace of the Parthenon, and 
 enduring as the imperishable granite." How well that 
 foundation was laid and how fully those hopes were 
 realized are attested by the Sigma of today. Another 
 letter from Amherst in October, 1847, tells how Alpha 
 Delta Phi and Psi Upsilon were seeking to injure or 
 destroy the young Chapter by urging its best members 
 to forsake it and join them. ''You are too smart men to 
 be dragging that little Society up hill," said the tempter 
 on one occasion, whereupon the loyal member of 
 Sigma, warmly resenting the insulting proposal of the 
 rival Fraternity, retorted : "Sir ! you shall see the day 
 of our prosperity ! Wie shall exist as long as you, for 
 more than one hundred men have sworn it in different 
 parts of our land !" Sigma Chapter has long since 
 arrived at the top of the hill, both literally and figura- 
 tively, and its rivals have learned the truth of that 
 earnest prophecy. 
 
 The first Fraternity established at Waterville as a 
 rival of A K E was Zeta Psi in 1850. In the years 
 between 1846 and 1850 there were various attempts 
 and still more frequent rumors of attempts to organize 
 a rival Society. In a letter from Mark H. Bunnell, Xi, 
 '49, March 15, 1848, the following interesting little 
 incident is related: "Mr. Townsend, the gentleman 
 of color in our college, took a very decided stand 
 against our Society. He wrote to many colleges in the 
 United States for a Chapter of some secret society to 
 act as a rival to the A K E. He failed in all his 
 efforts and finally formed a clique of his own choice. 
 It held a meeting a few evenings since in his room. 
 
46 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 The order of exercises were a pack of cards and a 
 bottle of brandy. At the close of the exercises, when 
 they were fully imbued with a spirit more ardent than 
 intellectual, they received very unexpectedly a call 
 from Prof. Loomis. He found them quite humble; 
 and Jonas, the Prince of Darkness, has since gradu- 
 ated — with what honors I will not say." In justice to 
 Zeta Psi it should be stated that it does not claim to 
 date its existence at Waterville from this event. 
 
 A letter from Phi Chapter, May 30, 1848, states 
 that the first movement to establish a Chapter at Har- 
 vard had been given up because it was found that 
 such a Chapter could not be established ''without per- 
 mitting the Legislature of Massachusetts to overlook 
 our constitution. This is the law at Harvard and we 
 think our other Chapters will sustain us in refusing to 
 agree to such a condition." 
 
 In 1848 there was a scare among the Fraternities at 
 Bowdoin over Faculty opposition which for a time 
 made their future very problematical. The apprehen- 
 sions of Theta must have been expressed with consid- 
 erable earnestness in its letters to the other Chapters, 
 for in replies received from the Chapters at Yale, 
 Amherst and Nashville there are the most solicitous 
 prayers for the safety of Theta, mingled with impreca- 
 tions upon the Faculty for its attitude, and appeals to 
 the members of the Chapter to "stand by the gallant 
 vessel as long as she can show a rag of canvas to the 
 gale and if needs be go down with her with colors 
 nailed to the mast." There is scarcely need to record 
 the fact that the storm proved a small affair which 
 
EARLY CORRESPONDENCE. 47 
 
 I 
 
 soon blew over, but it was enough of a crisis to bring 
 out the mettle of the young Chapter and the strength 
 of the Fraternity bond. 
 
 In a letter from the Amherst Chapter, October 19, 
 1849, the following story is told of one of its ancient 
 rivals : "They attempted to produce an impression in 
 their favor among the new members of the college by 
 persuading some young ladies to wear their badge at 
 the president's levee. But alas ! the poor fellows 
 overshot the mark and their dishonorable conduct only 
 served to disgust those whom it was designed to 
 attract. The whole affair was a most ludicrous one, 
 both in its progress and consequences." 
 
 No chapter in those early days sent longer or more 
 interesting letters than Gamma at Nashville, and one 
 of the best of its correspondents was Henry Maney, 
 Jr., '50. In the last of his letters, March 5, 1850, he 
 describes most vividly the opposition which Gamma, 
 the only Fraternity at Nashville, had to endure, an 
 opposition which went so far that half the students in 
 the college formed an ''Anti-Delta Association" with 
 the avowed purpose of killing the Chapter. But 
 "Gamma has stood calm and majestic amid this storm 
 of hatred and unjust persecution. Firm and unyield- 
 ing as the deep-bedded rock of Gibralta has been her 
 position. The fury of the opposing blast has now 
 vented its vain and empty force. The shock only 
 recoiled upon the head of the opposition which shud- 
 dered, rocked and finally exploded." 
 
 There is a letter from Phi dated May i, 1850, which 
 makes it plain that it was a communication written to 
 
48 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Phi by Trueman S. Perry, Theta, '50, which set on 
 foot the movement which resulted in the estabhshment 
 of Upsilon Chapter at Brown in the following July. 
 The first letter from Upsilon was written September 
 16, 1850. 
 
 Among the letters preserved in the files of 1851 are 
 one from Phi suggesting that the Fraternity procure a 
 block for the Washington monument; one from 
 Upsilon relating how the chapter of Beta Theta Pi at 
 Brown became a chapter of Alpha Delta Phi ; one from 
 Alpha Chapter at Harvard, November 14, announcing 
 its organization, a week earlier, and stating that Perry, 
 Theta, '50, then studying at Harvard, had declined to 
 join it ; one from Psi Chapter, Alabama, in response to 
 an appeal from Theta for a poet for the coming Con- 
 vention, declaring that Psi had ''no poet among its 
 members whom it would do to trust so far from 
 home;" four other letters fromi Psi which suddenly 
 became one of the best correspondents after failing to 
 write at all for the first three or four years of its exist- 
 ence; one from the young Chi Chapter, Mississippi, 
 blaming the mails for miscarrying its earlier letters 
 and promising tO' send a delegate to the coming Con- 
 vention at Brunswick, and one from Gamma Chapter, 
 Nashville, seeking light as to the extent to which the 
 Fraternity obligation bound members to support each 
 other in class and general society elections. No fewer 
 than fourteen letters were received from the Phi Chap- 
 ter, that year, many of them of much length. Evi- 
 dently the General Catalogue of the Fraternity does the 
 inactive Delta Chapter, South Carolina, an injustice in 
 
THETA IN THE CIVIL WAR. 49 
 
 giving the date of its establishment as May 5, 1852, 
 for the files of Theta show a letter from Delta, dated 
 December 29, 1851, giving the Chapter officers and 
 discussing the proposed general Convention. 
 
 Thus we have glanced at a few of the scores of 
 interesting letters received from the sister Chapters in 
 the first half dozen years. The letter files of Theta 
 are rich in priceless historical material relating to that 
 early period. For each of those years there are a 
 score or more letters preserved. In 185 1, the year last 
 mentioned above, there were forty letters received 
 from other Chapters. In 1852 there were forty- four; 
 in 1853, forty-one; in 1854, thirty-three; in 1855, 
 seventy-six; in 1856, sixty-three; in 1857, sixty; in 
 1858, eighty-six; in 1859, sixty-three; in i860, eighty, 
 and in 186 1, seventy-five. These are all preserved in 
 the files, and so on down through the war period from 
 whose correspondence extracts are given on subse- 
 quent pages. 
 
 One of the brightest pages in the history of Theta 
 Chapter is that upon which is written the record of its 
 
 sons in the Civil War. Seventy-three 
 THETA brothers whose names are upon its rolls 
 
 IN THE bore arms in that great conflict, seventy of 
 
 CIVIL WAR. them fighting for the perpetuation of the 
 
 Union and three in the armies of the South. 
 Reserving for a later mention the three in the Confed- 
 erate service, let us review in brief summary the 
 services of the seventy who answered their country's 
 call. Forty-six of them were graduate members, 
 ranging from Case, '48, to five members of the delega- 
 
 4 
 
50 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 tion of '62 ; sixteen left College to enlist in the army, 
 several returning later to complete their courses; and 
 no fewer than eight were in the service before entering 
 College and becoming members, the latest of these to 
 graduate being George M. Seiders, '''J2, the present 
 attorney general of Maine. 
 
 Of these seventy, eleven were killed in battle or died 
 of wounds. They were Capt. I. W. Case, '48; Lieut. 
 R. C. Thompson, '49; Major C. P. Chandler, '54; 
 Lieut. Col. T. A. Henderson, '55; Private S. C. 
 Charles, '58; Lieut. H. P. Brown, '60; Capt. W. L. 
 Haskell, '60; Capt. W. M. Morrell, '61; Paymaster 
 S. O. Frye, '64 ; Private H. P. Knight, '65, and Lieut. 
 E. S. Rogers, '65. 
 
 Such is Theta's honor roll in the Civil War, but the 
 mere statement of members of the list of those who 
 gave their lives in the service cannot tell all the story. 
 Bowdoin was not so seriously crippled by the war as 
 were many colleges, but the echoes of the conflict 
 shook its halls and the battle smoke clouded all its 
 activities. The Chapter records for those years show 
 this, if any evidence were needed. The only lapses 
 in the records for all these sixty years occur while the 
 war was raging, and the subjects for debate were 
 almost invariably connected with the war. That six- 
 teen undergraduate members left College to enlist, 
 shows something of the grim reality that the war 
 became to the members of Theta and indicates to what 
 an extent the war broke into its hitherto peaceful and 
 happy existence. We can scarcely conceive at this 
 time the excitement that reigned when the great battles 
 
THETA IN THE CIVIL WAR. 5 1 
 
 were being fought in which the members of the Chap- 
 ter knew their brothers were engaged. And what 
 sorrow must have weighed the hearts of those assem- 
 bled in Theta's hall when the news came of the death 
 of those but lately happy brothers among them. 
 
 There is treasured in the archives a letter from 
 James P. Jones, Omicron Chapter, Michigan, '56, 
 written just after Antietam, telling Theta of the death 
 in that battle of Harlan Page Brown and of the mortal 
 wound received by William Lewis Haskell, both of the 
 delegation of '60. He writes of their splendid bravery 
 and of his pride in fighting side by side with such men. 
 Of Lieut. Brown he writes : "Under the heaviest fire 
 I could see him waving his sword to direct his men, 
 and above the din of musketry could distinguish the 
 manly tones of his voice cheering and encouraging his 
 company. Thus bravely he led on into the valley of 
 death.'' Haskell, who was acting adjutant during the 
 battle, had three horses shot under him before he was 
 himself finally shot through both knees. The writer 
 of this letter was a charter member of Omicron Chap- 
 ter, and was himself killed in battle, July 14, 1864. It 
 may be added that when the remains of Capt. Haskell 
 were brought to his home in Yarmouth for burial, the 
 Chapter attended in a body. 
 
 Then there was the incident connected with the 
 death of Lieut. Rogers, '65, at Cold Harbor, which was 
 one of a thousand to prove that the conflict between the 
 sections could not sever the bond of brotherhood 
 between the members of the Fraternity wherever meet- 
 ing. After he fell mortally wounded in that most 
 
52 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 desperate charge of all the war, a Confederate officer 
 came upon him and seeing the pin of A K E upon his 
 breast knelt beside him andl clasped his hand in the 
 grip so dear to both. The southern Deke remained 
 with him to the end, doing all in his power to make his 
 last hours more comfortable, and when all was over he 
 sent the last messages of the dying boy to his home in 
 northern Maine and with them his A K E pin and 
 other mementoes which are to this day priceless relics 
 treasured by his relatives. 
 
 The record of each of the seventy sons of Theta who 
 bore arms for the Union cause is given in brief in 
 connection with the biographical sketches later in this 
 volume. Fifty-two of them won the rank of commis- 
 sioned officers, and all of them rendered gallant and 
 distinguished service which reflects immortal glory 
 upon their Fraternity, their College and their State. 
 The one to win highest rank was General Charles P. 
 Mattocks, '62, who again became a brigadier general 
 of volunteers in the Spanish-American War. In the 
 pages of ''Bowdoin in the War" we find many tributes 
 to their valor and their faithful service. Their names, 
 except in a few cases of non-graduates, are upon the 
 bronze tablets in Memorial Hall which thrill and 
 inspire successive generations of Bowdoin men. No 
 other Fraternity at Bowdoin sent so many sons to the 
 war or has such a glorious war record to boast of; 
 and this is as it should be, since our Fraternity at large 
 was represented much more numerously and more 
 prominently in the armies of both the North and the 
 South than any of its rivals. 
 
THETA IN THE CIVIL WAR. 53 
 
 As stated earlier, three members of Theta were in 
 the Confederate service and fought against the Union. 
 Two of them were killed in battle. The three were 
 Charles E. Butler, '50, who had been a teacher in the 
 South ten years when the war broke out and threw his 
 fortunes with that section ; John F. Shaw, '55, who 
 was also a teacher in the South and who was killed in 
 battle in 1863 ; and Robert McK. Spearing, '57, of 
 New Orleans, one of the most brilliant and popular 
 men of his class, who won the rank of a colonel and 
 gave up his life at Fredericksburg. Another member, 
 Joseph N. Metcalf, '60, a native of Kentucky, raised a 
 company of volunteers for the Confederate army and 
 was elected first lieutenant of the same ; but owing to 
 the urgent appeals of his father who was a native of 
 Maine and a strong Union man in spite of thirty years 
 residence in southern Kentucky, he resigned and with- 
 drew from the army without engaging in active ser- 
 vice. 
 
 Although not a part of Theta's record in the Civil 
 War, it may not be out of place to mention here the 
 case of George E. Lord, '66, one of several members 
 who have held commissions in the regular army in 
 later years. For five years he was assistant surgeon 
 on the staff of General Custer and with him went 
 down to death in the terrible massacre of the Little 
 Big Horn, June 25, 1876. 
 
 What the Civil War period meant to our Fraternity, 
 with its many strong Chapters in Southern colleges, is 
 indicated by the letter files of Theta. The Southern 
 Chapters were particularly prompt and cordial in their 
 
54 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 correspondence in the ante-bellum days. They were 
 intensely loyal to the Fraternity and active in its affairs. 
 They were heard from as usual in i860, and from some 
 of them letters were received in 1861 ; and then came 
 the significant silence, unbroken for years, which told 
 of college doors closed and Chapters in a body march- 
 ing to battle. There is much to stir the blood in those 
 last letters. 
 
 Chi Chapter, Mississippi, wrote March 9, i860: 
 "May the bonds which unite us never be ruthlessly 
 sundered by the political din which now disturbs our 
 unhappy land. We love your North and hope you do 
 our South. We hope that these commotions may soon 
 cease." In January, 1861, the same Chapter wrote: 
 "In these sectional times the North and South are 
 widely separated, but this should have no effect on 
 A K E. Our glorious union should never be dis- 
 severed or the strong bonds that unite us be broken 
 asunder." Within a year, the seven Chapter officers 
 mentioned in the first of these letters were all in the 
 Confederate service, as is shown by the General Cata- 
 logue of the Fraternity, and the writer had been killed 
 in battle. 
 
 A letter from Eta Chapter, Virginia, January 6, 
 i860, urges Theta to write more frequently, and dwells 
 upon the flourishing condition of the Chapter and its 
 fine prospects; yet within a year the Chapter was 
 inactive and all of the seven oflicers mentioned in the 
 letter were in the Southern army. The last letter 
 before the war from Beta Chapter, North Carolina, 
 has not a word about the sectional strife, but dwells at 
 
CONVENTIONS HELD WITH THETA. 55 
 
 length upon the advantages which it expects from the 
 recent election of two honorary members. 
 
 Omega Chapter, Oakland College, Mississippi, 
 wrote January 31, 1 861, of its plans for "a jolly time 
 and a grand A K E demonstration at our May com- 
 mencement," and urging Theta to send a representa- 
 tive if such a thing were possible. No letter ever 
 came to tell of the success of the jolly time and the 
 demonstration, but within a year the Chapter had gone 
 in a body into the Confederate service, and the writer 
 of that letter had died in a Southern army hospital. 
 In the same month. Kappa Psi Chapter, Cumberland 
 University, Tennessee, wrote its emphatic opposition 
 to a proposition of Delta Chapter, South Carolina, that 
 the Southern Chapters should sever their connection 
 with those of the North, declaring "We are unable to 
 see why the action of political demagogues should 
 influence or injure our great Fraternity." 
 
 Three general Conventions of the A K E Frater- 
 nity have been held with Theta Chapter at Bowdoin in 
 1852, 1858 and 1869 respectively. In 
 CONVENTIONS these later years, with our Fraternity 
 *^^^^ such a national institution, it has been 
 
 WITH THETA. ., , . , , ^ 
 
 impossible to induce the Convention to 
 meet in so remote a corner of the Union as Maine. 
 Moreover, to the modern Convention is attached an 
 imposing series of social functions hardly possible of 
 realization in a small college town. But it is hoped 
 that these difficulties may be overcome, and that in the 
 near future delegates from all the forty or more Chap- 
 
56 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 ters of our great Fraternity — Dekes from Canada and 
 the Gulf states, from Minnesota and California — may 
 gather in Convention upon Bowdoin's historic campus 
 and around the hospital hearthstone of Theta's beauti- 
 ful home. 
 
 The first Convention of the Fraternity, as has been 
 related earlier met at New Haven, December 23, 1846, 
 when the only Chapters were those of Yale, Bowdoin, 
 Princeton, Colby and Amherst. From then until 1852 
 no Convention was held, all matters of legislation, 
 constitutional changes, the establishment of new Chap- 
 ters, etc., being settled by means of the voluminous 
 correspondence maintained. At a meeting of Theta 
 Chapter, November 6, 1850, it was voted *'to ascertain 
 the opinion of the other Chapters as to a general Con- 
 vention." Nothing came of this, however, and a year 
 later the agitation for a second general Convention of 
 the Fraternity was renewed by Theta. 
 
 A letter was sent to Phi urging it to take into 
 "earnest and immediate consideration" the advisability 
 of holding a Convention of the Fraternity with Theta 
 during the year. This time the idea was more favor- 
 ably received, and a letter came back from Yale, dated 
 October 25, 1851, in which the writer said: "We 
 have most heartily seconded your wishes ; glad of the 
 opportunity, we having had one Convention here, to 
 favor one of our oldest and most prosperous Chapters." 
 This letter was followed by another, November i, in 
 which was given a copy of resolutions passed by Phi. 
 These resolutions were in substance that "a Convention 
 of the A K E Fraternity be held at Bowdoin College 
 
CONVENTIONS HELD WITH THETA. 57 
 
 with our Theta Chapter at their next Commencement, 
 in order to promote still further the kindly feeling 
 already existing among us, and to transact matters of 
 business with regard to the constitution and other 
 matters better done in a general meeting than by writ- 
 ing; that each Chapter be urged to send as many dele- 
 gates as possible, and that each Chapter have but one 
 vote in matters of business." 
 
 The details of the coming Convention were all left 
 with Theta, and John White Chickering, '52, Luther 
 Puffer, '53, Henry Hyde Smith, '54, and Thomas 
 Albert Henderson, '55, were appointed a committee to 
 have these details in charge. A letter came from Phi, 
 November 29, asking for "the precise day of the Con- 
 vention," and urging that "a continual ferment" be 
 kept up "so that on the glorious occasion of our 
 gathering at your College all our Chapters may be 
 tremendously represented." The time selected was 
 Commencement week, 1852, being the first week of 
 September and being also the time for which Bowdoin 
 was planning a grand celebration of the semi-centen- 
 nial of its opening. 
 
 But although the Convention was thus determined 
 upon almost a year in advance, the time proved to be 
 none too long for securing an Orator and Poet. At 
 first the home Chapter felt confident it could supply 
 them from its own alumni, but one brother after 
 another whom it wrote to felt unequal to the task and 
 modestly declined the honor. Next an appeal was 
 made to Phi which recommended several of its alumni, 
 but they too felt obliged to decline. Then a general 
 
58 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 appeal was made to the other Chapters, and a drag-net 
 was thrown out for any alumnus suspected of oratorial 
 or poetic ability sufficient to warrant his appearance 
 before a A K E Convention. Finally both Orator 
 and Poet were secured from among Theta's young 
 alumni. Trueman S. Perry, '50, consented to be the 
 Poet of the Convention, but a few days before it was 
 held he sustained a severe accident, almost a fatal one, 
 in fact, which prevented him from attending; so there 
 was no poem after all. The Orator was Isaac W. 
 Case, '48, then a teacher, who gave his life for his 
 country before Port Hudson, a decade later. 
 
 No records of that Convention have been preserved 
 and so we cannot give the names of its officers or 
 delegates, or any particulars as to the business trans- 
 acted. There are still living a few who were present 
 at its sessions and they agree in the statement that 
 there was a large attendance and that it was consid- 
 ered a very successful Convention. It is not to be 
 expected that their memories would retain for over 
 half a century many details of such a gathering. 
 There were then fourteen active Chapters in the Fra- 
 ternity, four of them being less than a year old, and 
 several of those in New England sent large delega- 
 tions. 
 
 The second Convention to meet at Bowdoin was that 
 of 1858, six years later. This was in reality the 
 seventh Convention to be held, but as it was the 
 thirteenth year after the founding of the Fraternity it 
 was denominated the thirteenth Convention, and sub- 
 sequent Conventions have been numbered on that basis. 
 
CONVENTIONS HELD WITH THETA. 59 
 
 The delegates were in Brunswick, August 3, 4 and 5, 
 and their sessions were held in the same hall where the 
 Convention of 1852 had met. The minutes of this 
 Convention are the earliest on file with the A K E 
 Council in New York, and from them we get a good 
 idea of the proceedings. The delegates first met in 
 the hall of Theta, Tuesday evening, August 3, and 
 spent a good part of the night in listening to reports 
 from the various Chapters. At this first meeting 
 thirteen of the twenty-seven Chapters then existing 
 were represented, and during the night and next day 
 numerous delegates representing other Chapters 
 arrived, but the whole number of Chapters represented 
 at the Convention is not given in the minutes. 
 
 The Convention was called to order at eight o'clock 
 the next morning by Clifford S. Belcher, Theta, '57. 
 At the Convention held at Brown, the previous year, 
 a member of Theta, Enos T. Luce, '56, now Jud^e 
 Luce of Waltham, Mass., had been made President; 
 and at this Convention, held at Bowdoin, a member of 
 Upsilon Chapter at Brown, John B. Brackett, '57, was 
 elected President. The Vice Presidents were Mark 
 Pitman, Theta, '59, and Francis H. Hurd, Lambda 
 Chapter, Kenyon College, '58 ; while W. H. Anderson, 
 Phi, '59, and David R. Straw, Theta, '59, were made 
 Secretaries. 
 
 The day was filled with business. Various consti- 
 tutional amendments were proposed ; a member of the 
 Chapter at Middlebury, who had been expelled and 
 had later joined Sigma Chapter at Amherst, was 
 declared, after a long discussion, not to be a member of 
 
6o THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 the Sigma Chapter; a graduate pin, in the form of a 
 scroll was adopted; the A K E March was ordered 
 published; the troubles of the Alpha Chapter at Har- 
 vard were given the usual airing that occupied the 
 attention of so many Conventions, before and after 
 that time; and the minutes contain a vague reference 
 to a statement by W. E. Foster of Phi '60, "about an 
 illegally formed Chapter at Macon College, Georgia." 
 The public exercises of the Convention were held in the 
 Congregational church. The Orator was Anson 
 Burlingame, an honorary member of Sigma Chapter, 
 Amherst, who was then a member of Congress from 
 Massachusetts and who was later United States 
 ambassador to China; and the Poet was Hamilton J. 
 Dennis of Omicron Chapter, Michigan, '58. The 
 Convention adjourned to meet the next year with 
 Lambda Chapter at Kenyon College, Ohio. 
 
 The third and latest Convention to be held with 
 Theta was the twenty-third, which met in Brunswick, 
 October 6 and 7, 1869. The Chapter had moved, three 
 years earlier, to its second hall, near the railroad 
 track, and here the sessions of the Convention were 
 held. The Civil War had made tragic ravages in the 
 Fraternity, rendering inactive half a score of Southern 
 Chapters, so that there were fewer active Chapters, 
 despite the new charters that had been granted, than 
 when the Convention had met in Brunswick, eleven 
 years earlier. There was a good attendance, several 
 of the nearest Chapters sending large delegations. 
 
 The Convention was called to order by J. W. Keene, 
 Theta, '70; and R. W. Hickox, Alpha, Harvard, 'y2, 
 
CONVENTIONS HELD WITH THETA. 6l 
 
 was made temporary chairman, and D. S. Alexander, 
 Theta, '70, now a New York congressman, temporary 
 secretary. The committee on permanent organization 
 was made up of L. h. Hubbard, Alpha, '72 ; D. S. 
 Alexander, Theta, '70, and L. W. Hicks, Phi, 'ji. 
 Permanent officers were elected as follows: President, 
 W. R. Brown, Sigma, '69 ; Vice President, I. H. Ford, 
 Phi, '71 ; Secretary, WA E. Frost, Theta, yo ; Assistant 
 Secretary, J. D. Williamson, Beta Chi, Western 
 Reserve, '70. The last named officer was the delegate 
 from the baby Chapter, as Beta Chi had then been 
 established less than a year. 
 
 That a strong spirit of conservatism had now taken 
 possession of the Fraternity is shown by the fact that 
 this Convention promptly rejected three applications 
 for charters. The case of Cornell was considered more 
 favorably and a committee was appointed to investi- 
 gate conditions at that newly founded institution. As 
 a result of its investigations. Delta Chi Chapter was 
 established and answered to its name when the twenty- 
 fourth Convention was held at Providence, a year later. 
 One incident of the business sessions was the election 
 of six honorary members for Theta Chapter, as related 
 on an earlier page. Since that time, thirty-five years 
 ago, the number of Theta's honorary members has not 
 been added to. 
 
 The public exercises of the convention were held in 
 the Baptist Church and were presided over by Hon. 
 Josiah H. Drummond of Portland, Colby, '46, the 
 beloved founder of Xi Chapter. The Orator was 
 George Pratt of Norwich, Conn., Phi, '57, and the Poet 
 
62 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 was Charles C. Puffer of Rochester, N. Y., Beta Phi 
 Chapter, Rochester, '63. Music was furnished by the 
 Germania Band of Boston. At the conclusion a ban- 
 quet was held at the Tontine Hotel, the memory of 
 which still fires the hearts of those who were there. 
 One of them, since a prominent legislator, writes of it, 
 ^^Although Maine is a Prohibition State, and at that 
 time no liquors were ever used in the College, yet I 
 fear before we adjourned, at two o'clock in the morn- 
 ing, one at least of those who were to respond to toasts, 
 had fallen under the table. How many others were 
 there, deponent saith not, for he possibly was not in a 
 condition to observe the actions of others. The last 
 thing which I remember about that Convention, which 
 was a notable one in many respects, was that three of 
 us, about four o'clock in the morning, were striving to 
 get up Maine street (which is 200 feet wide) singing 
 
 Hail to loved A K E, 
 Honored her name shall be 
 
 Till time shall end; 
 Vain every rival's arts; 
 Frustrate all hostile darts; 
 Proudly our loyal hearts 
 
 To her shall bend. 
 
 I cannot swear that we ever reached College. It is 
 said that this one and only departure from staid New^ 
 England habits was due to the fact that the Harvard 
 Chapter was represented by a full delegation, and that 
 the members of that illustrious order joined with the 
 Yale Chapter to initiate the rural youths of Maine. 
 Looking back upon it after having had nearly thirty 
 
OUR SISTER FRATERNITIES. 6^ 
 
 years in which to get sober, I am inclined to think that 
 report had it right." 
 
 When Theta Chapter of A K E was estabHshed at 
 Bowdoin in 1844, two intercollegiate Fraternities were 
 already represented there, Alpha Delta 
 OUR SISTER Phi, dating from 1841, and Psi Upsilon, 
 FRATERNITIES, dating from 1843. And at old Bow- 
 doin, as at many other leading colleges, 
 while other Fraternities have come and gone, these 
 three ancient rivals have lived and prospered side by 
 side. Both these other Chapters, like Theta in A K E 
 have always been counted among the strongest 
 in their respective Fraternities. A Chapter of Chi Psi 
 was also established at Bowdoin in 1844 which died 
 out in the late 'sixties. Tradition tells us that Chi Psi 
 was the "sporty" Fraternity of its time, and that a visit 
 to its hall in its declining years disclosed a punch 
 bowl as the only article of furniture remaining intact. 
 However this may be, it is certain that on the rolls of 
 the extinct Chapter are the names of some of the men 
 of whom Bowdoin is proudest — Chief Justice Fuller, 
 the late Speaker Reed, General Hubbard, General 
 Hyde, Judge Putnam, the Fessendens, Joseph Wil- 
 liamson and others. It seems a pity that this Chapter 
 was not revived in later years when new Fraternities 
 were being established at the College. 
 
 Theta Delta Chi established a Charge at Bowdoin 
 in 1854, which became inactive five or six years later. 
 In 1874 it was revived and has since been strong and 
 prosperous. A Chapter of Delta Upsilon, then known 
 as a non-secret Fraternity, was established at Bowdoin 
 
64 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 in 1857, the leaders in the movement being three or 
 four students who had resigned from membership in 
 Alpha Delta Phi. The Chapter became inactive within 
 a year or two, but over a third of a century later, in 
 1893, a new chapter of Delta Upsilon was established 
 which has since prospered. The Bowdoin Chapter of 
 Zeta Psi dates from 1867, when Chi Psl was going out 
 of existence. It was established mainly through the 
 efforts of George L. Chandler, '68, who had been a 
 member of Zeta Psi at Colby, where there had been a 
 Chapter of the Fraternity since 1850. 
 
 After Zeta Psi no new intercollegiate Fraternity 
 appeared at Bowdoin for a quarter of a century; 
 though the local Sophomore society Phi Chi rose in 
 glory and fell in darkness, leaving behind in song and 
 tradition an imperishable memory. Then came the 
 re-establishment of Delta Upsilon in 1893, as men- 
 tioned above, followed by Chapters of Kappa Sigma in 
 1895 3.nd Beta Theta Pi in 1900. Thus there are now 
 eight Chapters of intercollegiate Fraternities at Bow- 
 doin, all flourishing and facing only bright prospects. 
 Five of them occupy Chapter Houses of which four 
 were built for the purpose ; and of the remaining three, 
 at least one will have a Chapter House in the immediate 
 future. 
 
 With its sister Fraternities the relations of Theta 
 have been on the whole most friendly, particularly in 
 these later years. In early times there was keener 
 competition with more activity and feeling entered into 
 it ; and doubtless then, very much more frequently than 
 now, a member of a Fraternity forgot the welfare of 
 
OUR SISTER FRATERNITIES. 65 
 
 the College at large and the strict principles of personal 
 honor in his zeal to injure or defeat a rival Fraternity. 
 That this was true at other colleges than Bowdoin is 
 shown by scores of letters still preserved. In fact, it 
 is very doubtful if the bitterness of rivalry was ever 
 carried to the extent at Bowdoin that prevailed at some 
 other colleges. 
 
 In those early years, the election of officers for the 
 general literary societies, the Peucinian and the 
 Athenaean, which thrived at Bowdoin for two-thirds 
 of the 19th century, was a bone of contention over 
 which the Fraternities lined up for battle. On those 
 occasions there were frequent alliances between two 
 Fraternities ; and in the records we find many instances 
 along through the 'fifties where Theta Chapter voted to 
 combine with another Fraternity — almost invariably 
 with Psi Upsilon, though occasionally Chi Psi or Theta 
 Delta Chi figured in the arrangement — for a division 
 of the important offices. Committees of conference 
 were appointed which reported slates for discussion in 
 the meetings. No doubt, such alliances were met by 
 counter alliances, or possibly were the result of some 
 hostile demonstration on the part of the others. 
 Unhappily in more modern times, there have been 
 occasional instances of alliances or selfish partisanship 
 in the election of class officers or in athletic affairs, but 
 they have become more and more rare until any bad 
 influence which Fraternities may exert in such matters 
 has been thoroughly minimized at Bowdoin. 
 
 In the matter of securing new members there was 
 also undoubtedly more strenuous rivalry in the old 
 
66 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 times than in our day and generation. The term "fish- 
 ing" as used in this connection at Bowdoin is old as the 
 Fraternities themselves. We find it first used in the 
 records of Theta, October 5, 1850, when two members 
 were thanked "for services in the line piscatorial." 
 And what piscatorial artists there have been since that 
 day! 
 
 Several times attempts have been made to have the 
 various Fraternities agree not to fish or pledge new stu- 
 dents until after a stipulated time during Freshman 
 year. The first such attempt referred to in the records 
 was in 1857 ^^^ 3, dozen have followed it at varying 
 intervals, but none of them has accomplished anything. 
 In several instances Theta Chapter has been the one 
 to advance the proposition and it has never failed 
 through any fault of this Chapter. Knowing its 
 strength, it has realized that, in the vast majority of 
 cases, it could get the new men desired, however fierce 
 the competition; and that, on the other hand, it had 
 nothing to lose and much to gain, if the Freshmen 
 were allowed to wander around undisturbed for a term 
 or two getting unprejudiced opinions of the Fra- 
 ternities. 
 
 There have been several instances among the Bow- 
 doin Fraternities where a man ceased to be a member 
 of one, through resignation or expulsion, and became a 
 member of another. Thus, as related elsewhere, a 
 member of Theta, from the class of '51, left A K E 
 "with the benediction of all concerned," and later 
 joined Alpha Delta Phi. Then we have seen how the 
 Chapter of Delta Upsilon was first established by men 
 
OUR SISTER FRATERNITIES. (>^ 
 
 who resigned from Alpha Delta Phi. About that 
 time another member of Alpha Delta Phi, in the class 
 of '60, resigned from that Fraternity and joined Chi 
 Psi. One of the earliest members of Theta Delta Chi 
 was a member of the class of '54, who had left Psi 
 Upsilon. Theta Chapter has one member upon its 
 rolls who had earlier been a member of another Fra- 
 ternity at Bowdoin, in the person of Edward W. 
 Thompson, '56. Of this brother it is recorded : ''This 
 highly honored member of our Fraternity first joined 
 the Theta Delta Chi, but was expelled during his Jun- 
 ior year for causes which we did not deem sufficient. 
 Universally sustained in his course, and with a hearty 
 welcome, he was initiated into A K E, July 17, 1855." 
 
 As indicated on an earlier page, the members of 
 Theta Chapter were more intimate in the early years 
 with those of Psi Upsilon than with the other Fra- 
 ternities. There w^ere several joint banquets, or, at 
 least informal spreads, of these two Fraternities, dur- 
 ing the 'sixties. They were held in the anterooms of 
 the respective halls and were probably occasions lon'g- 
 remembered by those present. In more recent years, 
 the Dekes and the members of Theta Delta Chi — long 
 the joint occupants of Appleton Hall — have been on 
 particularly cordial terms, and their baseball gam.e, 
 with the following "feed" at a nearby shore resort has 
 become a feature of each Spring term. 
 
 Theta Chapter of A K E has no quarrel with any 
 of the other Fraternities at Bowdoin. It respects them 
 all and does not mean to give any of them reason to 
 diminish the respect they all feel toward it. It is

 always anxious to work hand in hand with them for \ 
 
 the good of the College they all love. Its feeling and ; 
 
 its attitude are well shown in the following song, \ 
 
 "When Theta Cheers the Ends," by Arthur Hunting- \ 
 
 ton Nason, '99, which its members often sing as they i 
 march across the campus and by the Chapter Houses,

TWO DEATHS IN THE ANDROSCOGGIN, 69 
 
 In the spring of 1859, the suicide of Howard Abbott 
 by drowning in the Androscoggin river threw a gloom 
 over the Chapter and the College. The 
 TWO DEATHS yc>i^^& ^3-^ was a member of the class of 
 IN THE '60, was a scholar of much ability and 
 
 ANDROScoQGiN.was much liked by his associates. Dur- 
 ing his Junior year he evinced at times 
 signs of mental derangement, and there were great 
 apprehensions among his friends when he was missed, 
 Saturday, May 21, 1859. The following day a letter 
 was found in his room addressed to his father, Hon. 
 Nehemiah Abbott of Belfast. This was opened and in 
 it was found an avowal of his intention to commit sui- 
 cide. The students immediately assembled and 
 divided themselves into small parties for the purpose 
 of searching the neighboring woods. College exer- 
 cises were suspended and wide interest was aroused in 
 the fate of the unfortunate student. The search of the 
 surrounding country being unsuccessful, it was 
 decided to drag the river, and on the third day the 
 body was recovered a short distance below the bridge. 
 His shawl, such as was commonly worn by young men 
 of that period, was found on some logs near the shore 
 where he had discarded it when he walked out to his 
 death. Services were held in King Chapel where a 
 psalm was sung followed by a prayer by Prof. Egbert 
 C. Smyth. A delegation from the Chapter and one 
 from the Junior class accompanied the remains to Bel- 
 fast and attended the funeral services in that city. 
 
 Forty-two years later there was a similar sad cere- 
 mony in the Chapel over the body of a member of 
 
70 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 A K E whose life had been lost in the waters of the 
 Androscoggin. In the latter case, however, the 
 tragedy was the result of the overturning of a canoe. 
 The victim was John Prescott Webber, Jr., of the class 
 of 1903, a young man of exceptional promise, and one 
 whose nobility of character had won him a brother's 
 truest love from every member of the Chapter. While 
 canoeing. May i, 1901, with a member of his delega- 
 tion, J. S. Bradstreet, the craft became unmanageable 
 and was overturned. Bradstreet succeeded in reach- 
 ing the shore, but Webber was quickly swept away by 
 the current, which was very swift at that point, and 
 never again seen alive. For days the river was drag- 
 ged for the body, but it was not recovered until over 
 two weeks later when it was found several miles below 
 the scene of the accident. It was taken to the Chapter 
 House, then in the first year of its occupancy, in whose 
 erection and furnishing the young man had taken great 
 interest, and to which he had been a most generous 
 contributor. 
 
 At noon of the following day, Saturday, Alay 18, to 
 the tolling of the Chapel bell and escorted by the mem- 
 bers of Theta Chapter, with the members of the 1903 
 delegation acting as bearers, the lifeless form of the 
 dead brother was taken to King Chapel where the 
 whole student body had assembled. The brief but 
 intensely impressive service was conducted by Presi- 
 dent Hyde and the hymn, "Just As I Am," was sung 
 by a special choir. The entire student body by classes 
 escorted the body to the station, the members of A K E 
 marching on either side of the hearse and immedi- 
 
THREE NAMES BLOTTED OUT. 7I 
 
 ately behind it. Every head was uncovered and it 
 was the saddest procession of students that has formed 
 on the campus in many years. Delegations from the 
 class and Chapter accompanied the remains to Bangor 
 where interment took place. In the sixty years of 
 Theta's existence no fewer than seventeen members 
 have died while undergraduates, thirteen of them in 
 the first twenty years of the Chapter's life, but the cir- 
 cumstances of these two deaths make them stand out as 
 particularly sad and memorable. 
 
 There have been three names borne upon the rolls 
 of Theta Chapter which are no longer to be found 
 
 there. Their owners were in the delega- 
 THREE NAMES tions of '49, '5 1 and '64 respectively, and 
 BLOTTED OUT. for rcasous deemed good and sufficient 
 
 by the Chapter, and also presumably by 
 themselves, each in turn ceased to be a member of the 
 Fraternity. The first had trouble with his fellow mem- 
 bers during his Freshman year, and requested a dis- 
 missal from the Chapter. He did not formally with- 
 draw or resign, but made a written request for what 
 was in effect an expulsion. The records show that the 
 request was discussed at several meetings and action 
 each time deferred. Soon, however, he left College; 
 and then some hand scratched from the minutes every 
 reference to his name, and erased it completely where 
 he had signed the constitution. There is no record of 
 his expulsion, but this act and the fact that his name 
 does not appear in the early catalogues show that he 
 was no longer considered a member. 
 
72 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 The second likewise found himself in uncongenial 
 company; and soon after his initiation, the fee for 
 which he never paid, he "left v/ith the benediction of 
 all concerned," according to the entry made at the 
 time. He remained in College and later in his course 
 became a member of Alpha Delta Phi. The third was 
 for almost four years a loyal and active member of the 
 Chapter, holding the highest office in its gift. In the 
 spring of his Senior year he left College and enlisted in 
 the army. He deserted from the service, and the 
 Chapter, when it learned of this act, considered it a suf- 
 ficient ground for his immediate expulsion from the 
 Fraternity. Of all the hundreds of members of Theta 
 Chapter, only these three have been deemed unworthy 
 by their fellow members. They were black sheep in 
 the flock. Their names have been stricken from the 
 Chapter rolls ; they are not to be found in the General 
 Catalogue of the Fraternity, and there is no reason why 
 they should appear here or elsewhere in this volume. 
 All three have been dead for many years. 
 
 From the first there has prevailed the custom of a 
 reunion of the alumni of Theta Chapter at Commence- 
 ment time ; and these occasions, 
 seni-CENTENNiAL which are arranged to come on 
 CELEBRATION. Wednesday evening, are greatly 
 enjoyed, both by the alumni members 
 who are able to return to College at that time, and by 
 the undergraduates. In early times, these reunions, 
 referred to in the records as "anniversaries," were 
 somewhat formal affairs with an oration and poem ; 
 but in later years they have been made less formal 
 
. SEMI-CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION. 73 
 
 gatherings, with the main emphasis on the getting 
 together of the old and young members in a jolly 
 reunion, with singing, refreshments, impromptu 
 speeches and discussions of Fraternity affairs. They 
 revive the interest of the graduates, keep strong the 
 bonds between them and the active members and are 
 in many ways beneficial to the Chapter. 
 
 The most largely attended reunion in the history of 
 the Chapter and in some respects the most notable, was 
 that of June 2.^], 1894, when the semi-centennial of the 
 founding of the Chapter was celebrated. It was par- 
 ticularly fortunate for the success of the occasion that 
 at this same Commencement the College celebrated the 
 centennial of its incorporation, thus ensuring an 
 immense gathering of alumni. But to the scores and 
 scores of loyal Dekes, old and young, who thronged 
 back to the campus not one of the many events that 
 crowded the week was more important or pleasant 
 than the semi-centennial celebration of Theta Chapter. 
 A committee composed of R. H. Baxter, '94, F. W. 
 Dana, '94, R. H. Hinkley, '94, H. L. Fairbanks, '95, 
 and J. C. Minot, '96, had the arrangements in charge. 
 It had been proposed to have a ball and reception 
 earlier in the term in honor of the anniversary, but this 
 was given up and all energies were devoted to the 
 alumni reunion of Commencement week. 
 
 The main feature, of course, was the Wednesday 
 evening gathering in the hall, but for the whole week 
 the members of A K E were much in evidence, every 
 returning graduate being promptly decorated with the 
 Fraternity colors and made at home among the boys. 
 
74 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Before South Appleton was hung the great Fraternity 
 flag, 25x18 feet, with its rampant lion against the 
 crimson, gold and blue. On Wednesday evening the 
 hall was filled to its utmost capacity, and here for two 
 hours was as jolly a reunion as Theta ever knew. 
 About one hundred and fifty alumni signed the regis- 
 ter, representing thirty-eight classes in the Chapter's 
 history and fully one-half of the states of the Union. 
 There were also present representatives of seven other 
 Chapters of A K E, Xi at Colby, Sigma at Amherst, 
 Pi at Dartmouth, Nu at the College of the City of New 
 York, Beta Phi at Rochester, Gamma Phi at Wesleyan 
 and Delta Chi at Cornell. All these were represented 
 by graduates living in Maine, and Xi also sent several 
 undergraduates. Telegrams of congratulation were 
 received from Phi Chapter at Yale, the A K E Asso- 
 ciation of New England at Boston, the A K E 
 Quarterly, and from a number of alumni. It was a 
 source of much regret that of the three charter mem- 
 bers of the Chapter still surviving, Goodrich, Emerson 
 and Holt, none could be present. 
 
 At about 11.30, P. M., the whole company adjourned 
 to the Town Hall, near by, where Robinson, a Portland 
 caterer, had prepared the banquet in the court room. 
 After the cigars had been passed around, the best part 
 of the evening's program began. H. L. Fairbanks, 
 '95, presided over the exercises and introduced Hon. 
 O. D. Baker, '68, as the Orator of the evening, Judge 
 H. S. Webster, '6y, as the Poet and J. C. Minot, '96, as 
 the Historian. Their efforts were received with much 
 enthusiasm, and then came informal speeches from a 
 
SEMI-CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION. 75 
 
 few of the alumni ; speeches eulogistic, witty, reminis- 
 cent, prophetic ; some full of advce, all full of congrat- 
 ulation; all full of love and tender memories of the 
 old Chapter ; all ringing with the true ARE spirit. 
 
 The speakers were I. S. Metcalf, '47, Elyria, Ohio; 
 Dr. J. M. Eveleth, '48, Hallowell ; Judge S. F. Hum- 
 phrey, '48, Bangor; Dr. John A. Douglass, '54, 
 Amesbury, Mass. ; Hon. Caleb Saunders, '59, Law- 
 rence, Mass. ; Judge Enoch Foster, '64, Bethel ; Hon. 
 Joseph A. Locke, '65, Portland; Hon. Stanley Plum- 
 mer, '67, Dexter; Hon. Clarence Hale, '69, Portland; 
 William E. Frost, '70, Westford, Mass. ; George L. 
 Thompson, ^'j'j, Brunswick, and Francis A. Frost, '94, 
 Westford, Mass. It was broad daylight before the 
 last speech had been made, the last story told, the last 
 song sung and the last cheer given. Never before or 
 since have so many members of our Fraternity been 
 assembled at Bowdoin or elsewhere in Maine, as 
 clasped hands in the Mystic Circle when that semi-cen- 
 tennial reunion was over. The concluding verses of 
 Judge Webster's poem "Our Theta," which have since 
 been set to music by that talented woman, Miss Kate 
 Vannah of Gardiner, must be given a place here.

THE HALLS OF THETA. 'J'J 
 
 As the memory of the alumnus strays back to his 
 undergraduate days in A K E, perhaps it lingers 
 longer and more fondly than elsewhere in 
 THE HALLS the Chapter hall. Whatever else he has 
 OP THETA. forgotten, he still recalls his first entrance 
 within those closely guarded portals ; the 
 mysteries there imparted and the welcome from the 
 heart with which he was received into the fellowship of 
 the Fraternity. It was in the Chapter hall that the 
 work was done and the training given which proved 
 not the least important part of his college course in its 
 permanent value. There were fought the forensic 
 battles which usually raised the dust within the room, 
 but never failed to settle the great problems which 
 were vexing the world outside. There were enjoyed 
 the "spreads" and ''feeds" which appeal, as do few 
 other things to the happy and healthy young collegian. 
 There were sung in riotous glee that made the rafters 
 tremble, the songs of A K E — sung with more vol- 
 ume and heartiness than regard to technique, and with 
 much more harmony in the hearts of the singers than 
 in the sound of the singing. There was formed the 
 Mystic Circle; and there, in short, more than else- 
 where were forged the links in the golden chain of 
 friendship which endures through all the years and 
 which makes the old graduate realize that 
 
 f 
 
 "Earth has no honors bright, 
 
 Friendship no tender light. 
 
 But pale before thy might, 
 Loved A K E." 
 
78 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 The halls of Theta, before it came to its own with 
 the building of the Chapter House, were three in num- 
 ber, each being occupied in turn for nearly a score of 
 years. The first few meetings, as has been related, 
 were held in the room of W. F. Jackson, '46, at the 
 home of his parents in Brunswick; and then for little 
 more than a year the Chapter met in a room engaged 
 of a Mr. Cushing. But that was only a temporary 
 arrangement, and in August, 1846, a hall was engaged 
 upon the third floor of Dunlap Block which continued 
 to be the home of the Chapter until 1866. For the 
 next twenty years, 1866 to 1886, the Chapter occupied 
 a hall over a store, no longer standing, on Maine 
 street close to the railroad track. From 1886 until the 
 Chapter House was ready for occupancy in the late 
 Fall of 1900, the Chapter occupied a hall built for it by 
 G. L. Thompson, '77, on the third floor of Boardman 
 Block, the building next below the Town Hall. 
 
 The first of these halls, that in the old Dunlap Block 
 on the East side of Maine street, where the new Dun- 
 lap Block now stands, cost the Chapter the modest 
 rental of $20 annually. It was a good sized hall with 
 a large ante-room, and when the Chapter moved in it 
 indulged the luxury of forty-two yards of carpeting 
 for the floor. As one means of protecting and pre- 
 serving this carpet, three spittoons were purchased at 
 the same time. One of the first entries in the records 
 referring to the condition of the hall is that in the 
 meeting of July 16, 1851, when "remarks were made 
 on the state of the plastering." Evidently the reverb- 
 erations of the eloquence which so frequently filled the 
 
THE HALLS OF THETA. 79 
 
 hall had been too much for the plastering; or possibly 
 there had occasionally been other reverberations than 
 those caused by the earnest discussions of the ponder- 
 ous questions which were considered at each meeting. 
 
 The general Conventions of 1852 and 1858 were held 
 in this hall. In preparation for the first of these, 
 extensive additions were made to the furnishings. 
 Two tables were purchased and incidentally it was 
 "voted to restore to its rightful owner the table now 
 in the possession of the Society ;" the two sofas were 
 purchased which no alumnus of the Chapter fails to 
 remember ; and a little later a chandelier was purchased 
 at an expense of $25. Before the Convention of 1858 
 was held, the ante-room of the hall was carpeted and 
 painted. A vote of November 13, 1855, "that a new 
 door be procured to the Chapter room and the windows 
 be repaired," suggests that the sanctum sanctorum had 
 been violently assaulted by outsiders, though this may 
 not have been the case. When the Chapter had been 
 in this hall ten years, the rent was raised, but the boys 
 were so well satisfied with their quarters that they 
 "voted to pay double the rent if necessary to keep the 
 rooms." The beginning of a library for the Chapter 
 hall was made February 2, i860, when it was voted to 
 buy a Webster's Dictionary, and from this nucleus has 
 grown the library in which the Chapter justly takes 
 much pride. Through the years of the war this hall 
 continued the meeting place of the Chapter, though in 
 i860 and again in 1862 committees were appointed "to 
 make arrangements for a new hall." 
 
80 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 It was not until 1865, however, that arrangements 
 for a new hall were made. At the meeting of Sep- 
 tember 5, in that year, it was "voted to have the hall 
 changed to the new building now being constructed by- 
 Mr. Melcher near the railroad crossing, the rent to be 
 $65 per year.'^ This building was located below the 
 present residence of Prof. Robinson, at the foot of 
 Brunswick's solitary little hill ; and that it was a new 
 building, lighted by gas and situated nearer the cam- 
 pus, was probably a strong argument for the change. 
 The actual removal was not made until the following 
 Spring ; and the new hall was dedicated on the evening 
 of March 31, 1866, with an oration by R. D. Wood- 
 man, '66, and the singing of songs and odes written for 
 the occasion by G. T. Sumner, '66, J. W. MacDonald, 
 '67, and G. M. Bodge, '68. 
 
 As was the case with the previous hall, this one was 
 occupied for exactly a score of years. Here the ses- 
 sions of the general Convention of 1869 were held, in 
 preparation for which about $125 was expended upon 
 the hall. In 1867 the chair was purchased which has 
 since done faithful service for the presiding officer. 
 This was procured in Lewiston at an expense of $28. 
 A little later, the large ante-room — where the Kappa 
 Chapter of Psi Upsilon was at least once entertained 
 in a body — ^was carpeted and papered. The twenty 
 years during which this hall over Simpson's store was 
 occupied, were particularly prosperous and active times 
 for Theta of A K E, a halcyon period of its history. 
 There was never a time when its leadership was more 
 generally acknowledged or its superiority more mani-

 fest. During these years one strong delegation after 
 another carried off an even larger proportion of the 
 scholarship prizes and honors than had been won dur- 
 ing the preceding twenty years, or have been won in 
 the twenty prosperous years that have followed. Dur- 
 ing this period also, before any other Fraternity at 
 Bowdoin had dreamed of such a thing, the Chapter 
 House movement was started and carried to all but 
 success. 
 
 It was in the Spring of 1886 that the Chapter moved 
 to the hall that had been prepared for it on the third 
 floor of Boardman Block by G. L. Thompson, ^"jj, and 
 here it remained until the Chapter House was ready 
 for occupancy, over fourteen years later. This third 
 hall was a very pleasant home for the Chapter, though 
 usually most uncomfortably crowded on the nights of 
 the alumni reunions in June. The ante-room was 
 small, and on initiation night the boys appreciated the 
 kindness of the dentist who occupied the floor below, 
 in placing his reception room at their disposal. How 
 distinct in the memory of the young alumni is the 
 picture of this hall. The two old sofas across two of 
 the corners, and the piano between them; behind one 
 sofa the bust of Shakespeare upon a little table and 
 behind the other on a similar table a mounted loon, 
 much the worse for the ravages of the moths; the 
 many delegation pictures upon the walls ; the stack of 
 tables and the littered bookcase beside the door to the 
 little kitchen ; the recessed platform for the presiding 
 officer, with the Fraternity escutcheon in its rear; the 
 two supporting rods from the ceiling, often utilized

 for acrobatic performances ; the cane seat arm chairs 
 fining most of the floor space ; and the worn and faded 
 carpet which was usually a subject for animated dis- 
 cussion at the alumni reunions, one old graduate no 
 sooner remarking that his delegation bought it than 
 another would promptly declare that the former's 
 might have bought it, but his had paid for it ! 
 
 It is not possible to point to any particular date as 
 that on which the idea of possessing a Chapter House 
 
 was first conceived by the members 
 CHAPTER HOUSE oi Theta Chapter ; nor is it possible 
 MOVEriENT. to point to any particlar man and say 
 
 that he was the originator of the 
 movement. To give the full story of the various 
 attempts that were made to build a home for the Chap- 
 ter, before success was finally achieved, would require 
 a volume of larger dimensions than this one. We can 
 only relate in the most general way, that the movement 
 had it origin in the early 'seventies, almost thirty years 
 before the Chapter House became a reality. As far as 
 known, the idea of building and owning a house was 
 agitated by the members of Theta of A K E long 
 before it was considered by any other Fraternity at 
 Bowdoin ; and, that being the case, it was eminently 
 fitting that our Fraternity should, after many years of 
 waiting, be the first one at Bowdoin to build and 
 occupy a house of its own. It lessens the distinction 
 but little that one of its sister Fraternities had, a year 
 or two earlier, moved into a house which it had bought 
 and remodelled for its purposes. 
 
CHAPTER HOUSE MOVEMENT. 83 
 
 In the early years of the Chapter House movement, 
 and in the later years, for that matter, practically all 
 the work toward the longed-for end was done by com- 
 mittees, sometimes of the undergraduates and some- 
 times of the alumni, appointed for the purpose, and so 
 the records of the Chapter itself throw little light upon 
 what was attempted or accomplished. The first refer- 
 ence is in the minutes of the meeting of June i8, 1874, 
 when it was voted, ''That a Committee be appointed to 
 look after a hall fund." This Committee was com- 
 posed of Myles Standish, '75, F. C. Payson, 'j6, and 
 John A. Morrill, '"j^. If there were earlier Commit- 
 tees they were not mentioned in the records. It is 
 worthy of note that at least two of the three members 
 of this first Committee remained, through all the years 
 that followed, active workers in behalf of the Chapter 
 House; and the name of one of them — Franklin C. 
 Payson, ''j^ — is more prominently identified with that 
 movement than the name of any other alumnus of the 
 Chapter. A few others who served on the Chapter 
 House Committee, or "Hall" Committee as it was 
 called in those years, were: E. H. Hall, '75, William 
 Alden, '-j^, G. T. Little, '-jj, T. L. Paine, '78, W. G. 
 Davis, '79, and E. G. Spring, '80, several of whom 
 have never allowed their interest in the movement to 
 flag. 
 
 The idea at that time was not for such a Chapter 
 House as was finally built, many years afterwards, but 
 rather for a lodge or hall, to be used only for the pur- 
 poses of the weekly meetings and to contain little more 
 than a meeting hall with the necessary ante-rooms. 
 
84 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Some years later the idea broadened so that it was 
 proposed to have the building also contain quarters for 
 the Chapter eating club, but it was not until the move- 
 ment was begun which finally ended in success that it 
 was planned to have a Chapter House in which a part 
 of the members should room. In fact, in the earlier 
 years there would have been immediate and effective 
 opposition from the College Faculty and governing 
 Boards to any proposition that students room off the 
 campus in any such building. This opposition, indeed, 
 had not wholly died out when our Chapter House was 
 finally built, and only the active work of several loyal 
 A K E alumni, who were members of the governing 
 Boards, overcame it. 
 
 There is no need, even were there room within the 
 limits of this history, to dwell at length upon the 
 efforts made by the various Committees through the 
 'seventies and 'eighties. The movement rose and 
 receded regularly every few years, but failure never 
 brought lasting discouragement, and each cessation of 
 active work found the movement farther advanced 
 than the preceding one. Usually the temporary fail- 
 ures were due to all important financial reasons, but 
 this was not always the case. In one particular 
 instance, which many will recall, an active alumni 
 Committee had secured pledges for a sufficient amount 
 of money, only to find that the alumni and under- 
 graduates differed materially in their ideas as to what 
 kind of a house should be constructed. The Commit- 
 tee felt that it should be a building to contain only the 
 Chapter hall, while some of the younger alumni and

 the undergraduates were beginning to grasp the 
 modern idea of a Chapter House with accommodations 
 for a part of the members. This difference of opinion 
 somewhat cooled the ardor of the Committee, and 
 matters were allowed to rest as they were. This was 
 in the middle 'eighties, and a few years later both 
 Chapter and Committee approved the plan of building 
 a Chapter House alone, without accommodations for 
 roomers or boarding club. The designs drawn at that 
 time contemplated a building 6i x 29 feet, containing 
 a hall 35 X 27 feet. The cost was to be somewhere 
 between $3,500 and $6,000, according to the materials 
 of which it was composed. The alumni in Boston and 
 Portland quickly pledged $1,250, and subscriptions for 
 a large part of the balance were received by the com- 
 mittee. 
 
 It was a little later that the Chapter considered seri- 
 ously the idea of buying the so called Perry House, 
 now occupied by Professor Johnson, which was then 
 in the market at a most reasonable figure. This was 
 a large and attractive dwelling, most conveniently 
 located, and would have made a very pleasant Chapter 
 House ; but there was too much delay and, before deci- 
 sive action was taken, the property had passed into 
 other hands. One circumstance which doubtless 
 retarded the Chapter House movement \vas the fact 
 that for many years the members of the various 
 Fraternities have been grouped together in the College 
 dormitories. Thus for the past quarter of a century 
 or more South Appleton Hall has been known as the 
 "Deke End," being occupied almost exclusively by the 
 
86 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 members of our Fraternity; and there on the upper 
 floors the members of the lower delegations still room 
 until by right of seniority in the Chapter they can 
 occupy rooms in the Chapter House. 
 
 Several times in those earlier years of the Chapter 
 House movement a fund had been started to which 
 some of the graduates and alumni had contributed, but 
 in several instances this fund had been drawn upon for 
 other purposes, so that the money did not accumulate 
 very rapidly. In the early 'nineties the Chapter began 
 the regular assessment of a small Chapter House tax 
 upon its members, an assessment which has since been 
 continued and has been an important factor in the suc- 
 cess of the movement. 
 
 It was in the Winter of 1895-6 that the movement 
 began which resulted in the purchase of a lot and the 
 building of the Chapter House. Nothing definite or 
 aggressive had been done in the matter for several 
 years, and it seemed to be time for one of the periodical 
 agitations of the subject which had occurred every 
 little while for a score of years. This time, however, 
 the Fates were more propitious and, although success 
 did not come at once, yet this movement, built upon the 
 partial successes of the past, suffered no appreciable 
 check until the house was built. At the meeting of 
 December 6, 1895, ^ ^^w Chapter House Committee 
 was appointed, consisting of Preston Kyes, '96, C. H. 
 Holmes, '97, and C. S. Pettengill, '98, and authorized 
 to investigate the matter of an available lot. As a 
 result of this Committee's prompt work, helped much 
 by two loyal alumni on the Faculty — Prof. Little, 'yy, 
 
CHAPTER HOUSE MOVEMENT. 87 
 
 and Dr. Whittier, '85 — the Newman house and lot, on 
 the comer of Maine and College streets, was purchased 
 July 16, 1896, in the name of Professor Little as 
 Trustee for the Chapter, the consideration being 
 $5,000. Of this sum, $1,900 was paid from the Chap- 
 ter House fund, which had accumulated, and from the 
 money then raised among the undergraduates, and the 
 property was mortgaged for the balance. The work 
 of interesting the alumni began at once through visits 
 of Kyes, '96, to Portland and Boston, and with a con- 
 siderable degree of success; but, as had been the case 
 before, the graduation of the leading member of the 
 Committee caused the movement to lose a little of its 
 headway, though it did not this time come to a com- 
 plete stop. 
 
 Thanks to the earnestness and zeal of others who 
 followed upon this Committee, C. S. Pettengill, '98, 
 and F. W. Briggs, '99, deserving special mention 
 among the number, the interest of an increasing num- 
 ber of the alumni was arroused, and the scheme of 
 raising the large sum required for a house gradually 
 took definite shape. In 1899, the Committee engaged 
 Frazer & Chapman, vv^ell known architects of Boston, 
 to draw the plans for such a house as was desired. 
 The plans then furnished by this firm were those later 
 accepted and upon which the house was built. 
 
 With a large and beautiful lot waiting for the house, 
 with these admirable plans on hand, and with the cer- 
 tainty that sufficient money could be secured when a 
 systematic canvass was made for it by those having 
 authority to do the work, the time had now arrived for 
 
88 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 a formal organization of the alumni to take the work 
 out of the hands of the undergraduate Committee and 
 make the house a reality. Accordingly, a few young 
 alumni, feeling that somebody must go ahead if any- 
 thing was to be accomplished, met, September 9, 1899, 
 in the office of Williamson & Burleigh, Augusta law- 
 yers, and organized the Theta Chapter House Associa- 
 tion, a corporation under the general laws of Maine, 
 to erect, own and maintain a Chapter House for Theta 
 of Delta Kappa Epsilon. 
 
 At this meeting were present: Joseph Williamson, 
 '88, L. A. Burleigh, '91, J. C. Minot, '96, F. W. Briggs, 
 '99, Cony Sturgis, '99. Williamson was elected Presi- 
 dent, and Briggs, Treasurer. The former retained his 
 office until the house was built and ready for occu- 
 pancy, when he was succeeded by F. C. Payson, 'yd', 
 but Briggs resigned a few weeks later, and was suc- 
 ceeded as Treasurer by J. C. Minot, '96, who has since 
 served in that capacity. The Directors elected were: 
 F. C. Payson, '^6, Joseph Williamson, '88, G. T. Little, 
 'y^, A. W. Mansur, '^2, F. N. W.hittier, '85, J. C. 
 Minot, '96, and R. L. Dana, '01. This list has remained 
 unchanged. H. L. Swett, '01, was elected Clerk of 
 the corporation. These directors at once held several 
 meetings in Brunswick ; the property owned by Pro- 
 fessor Little as Trustee was transferred to the Asso- 
 ciation, and the scheme of financiering the movement 
 was mapped out. 
 
 To make a long story short, once more, the house, 
 when finally built and ready for occupancy a year later, 
 represented an outlay of practically $30,000, of which, 
 
CHAPTER HOUSE MOVEMENT. 89 
 
 approximately, $20,000 went for the house itself, 
 $5,000 for the lot, and $5,000 for furnishings. Of 
 this total of $30,000, the sum of $10,000 was secured 
 from the Union Mutual Life Insurance Company of 
 Portland on a first mortgage of the property. This 
 mortgage has since been transferred to the Augusta 
 Savings Bank, which now holds it, and is being 
 reduced at the rate of $500 annually, from the income 
 of the house. Of the remaining $20,000, about 
 $10,000 was contributed by the alumni on an issue of 
 second mortgage, profit-sharing bonds, and almost 
 $10,000 came from the earlier Chapter House fund, 
 from gifts by alumni and undergraduates, and from 
 temporary loans. Although at first the financial 
 proposition looked formidable and forbidding, it did 
 not prove difficult of solution, and our experience as 
 pioneers in building a Chapter House at Bowdoin has 
 been of great benefit to the other Fraternities there 
 which have since built houses of their owti. In all, 
 no fewer than 250 of the members of Theta Chapter, 
 representing nearly all of the classes in its histor}-, 
 contributed money toward the building of the Chapter 
 House, making it a monument to the A K E loyalty 
 that never dies. 
 
 The house was built in 1900 by Smith & Rumery, 
 contractors, of Portland. The historic old house 
 which had stood on the lot for generations, was sold 
 for $100 and moved away, and the Chapter House was 
 built almost exactly upon its site. Work was begun 
 in April, and when the alumni returned in large num- 
 bers, as usual at Commencement time, the house was

 closed in and had assumed shape, so that its appear- 
 ance was most satisfactory to all. In addition to the 
 directors, a building committee had been appointed, of 
 which Walter G. Davis, '79, was chairman, and of 
 which several of the directors were members. Of this 
 committee. Dr. Whittier, '85, residing in Brunswick 
 all the time, was able constantly to watch the progress 
 upon the house and attend to a multitude of details. 
 
 When the undergraduates returned to College in 
 September the house was so near completion that the 
 members of the Senior delegation, in anticipation of 
 moving into it, gave up their rooms on the campus and 
 roomed outside the College during the Fall term. On 
 the night of October 19, 1900, although not quite ready 
 for occupancy, the house was used for the purposes of 
 the annual initiation, and the members of the 1904 
 delegation were received into the fellowship of A K E 
 within its walls. A little later in the Fall the house 
 was ready for occupancy, the members of the upper 
 delegation moved into their rooms, and the eating club 
 was transferred to it from the corner of Maine and 
 Noble streets, where it had been for several years. 
 With what happiness and pride was that transfer 
 made ! And suffice it to say, as to the conditions that 
 have since prevailed, that nothing has arisen to make 
 the house anything but a blessing and benefit to the 
 Chapter and to the College ; nothing has occurred to 
 give either the builders or occupants regret or embar- 
 rassment. On the contrary, in the administration of 
 the house, financially and in all other respects, the 
 hopes of the most optimistic have been realized and the 
 
THE HOUSE A REALITY. 9 1 
 
 effects of its possession have been wholly salutary. 
 If there were any skeptics or scoffers when Bowdoin's 
 first and best Chapter House was built, they have been 
 silenced. 
 
 And now, with this brief and imperfect summary of 
 the movements which finally resulted in the erection 
 
 of the Chapter's home, let us look at the 
 THE HOUSE house itself and its surroundings. In the 
 A REALITY, first placc, the lot is without an equal for 
 
 its purposes in the town of Brunswick. 
 Its situation is ideal, and its great size, with many 
 stately elms bordering it and scattered over it, add 
 infinitely to its attractiveness. The house is of the 
 Colonial type — the kind, outside and inside, that one 
 never tires of, and which is always in fashion, while 
 other types of architecture come and go. The picture 
 of the house and grounds as given elsewhere in this 
 volume, speaks for itself and makes unnecessar}^ any 
 description of the exterior. As we go in the front 
 entrance we enter a large hall or living room, extend- 
 ing through. To the right, on the front, is the library, 
 and to the left is the pool room. In the rear of the 
 library, and reached by a passage, are two guest rooms. 
 Back of the pool room, in the wing, and across the 
 passage that leads from the living room to the end 
 piazza, is the dining room. 
 
 On this floor there are four fireplaces, in the living 
 room, library, pool room and dining room respectively, 
 and in the first three of these rooms there are numer- 
 ous window seats, cosey corners and inglenooks, which 
 add vastly to their attractiveness and comfort. In the 
 
92 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 living room are many pictures of distinguished alumni 
 of the Chapter, convention groups, and other A K E 
 Chapter Houses. There are also several groups of the 
 active Chapter at different times in recent years, and 
 pictures of the officers and directors of the Theta 
 Chapter House Association, and the members of the 
 building committee. In this room stands the piano 
 at the foot of the broad staircase, and on the shelves 
 vi^hich flank the capacious back window seat are the 
 bound volumes of the various Bowdoin publications, 
 also the bound Quarterlies, the catalogues, song books, 
 exchange annuals, etc. 
 
 The library is the most beautiful room of the house, 
 and the finish, the mantel, the book-cases, the paper, 
 the furnishings, and the pictures, are the richest and in 
 perfect harmony. The shelves are well filled, thanks 
 to the generosity of the alumni brothers ; and not the 
 least interesting volumes upon them are the photo- 
 graph albums containing individual pictures of all the 
 members of the Chapter in recent years. In the corri- 
 dors and hall upstairs hang the framed pictures of 
 almost every delegation since the early 'sixties. 
 
 The pool room, with its cosey inglenook, is the 
 favorite loafing place and smoking room. On the 
 walls are mounted deer heads, college banners, and 
 many steins and trophies. The dining room is large 
 and light, and will comfortably seat half a hundred. 
 The tables and chairs in this room were the gift of 
 John Prescott Webber, '03, shortly before the accident 
 w^hich cost his life. On all the silverware are stamped 
 
THE HOUSE A REALITY. 93 
 
 the three mystic letters, and on all the china is burned 
 the Chapter coat of arms. 
 
 The second floor is reached by a broad staircase 
 from the Hving room, and here are suites of rooms for 
 fourteen students, also bath rooms, linen closets, etc. 
 On the third floor are studies and sleeping rooms for 
 six more students, and also the large Fraternity hall. 
 In the basement of the house are the kitchen, pantry, 
 store room, furnace room, etc. About half the mem- 
 bers of the Chapter, that is, those in the upper delega- 
 tions, room in the house, but all the undergraduates 
 take their meals here and all enjoy its privileges. A 
 great part of the furnishings of the house, such as the 
 pool table, leather window seat cushions, the heavy 
 rugs, the pictures, the clocks, the window screens, and 
 ornaments and relics too numerous to mention, were 
 generously contributed by loyal alumni. The first dele- 
 gation to graduate after the house was occupied, namely 
 the delegation of 1901, gave the A K E pin in leaded 
 glass in the Fraternity colors, in the circular window 
 high over the front entrance. When the incandescent 
 lights are glowing behind this window the effect is 
 striking as one approaches the house. 
 
 The Chapter House was dedicated with its first great 
 gathering of alumni members during Commencement 
 week, 1901. The house was of course the head- 
 quarters and chief object of interest of all the return- 
 ing alumni brothers during the whole week, but the 
 reunion came, as usual, on Wednesday evening, and it 
 was an occasion to be remembered. It was thoroughly 
 informal and as thoroughly delightful. Most of the 
 
94 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 time was spent in looking over the house, renewing 
 old times, meeting the active members, etc., but after 
 the refreshments had been served there were an oration 
 and poem to give the occasion its fitting literary dig- 
 nity. There were present nearly one hundred alumni 
 members of the Chapter, and these with the under- 
 graduates made a goodly and enthusiastic num^ber to 
 tell in song and story and speech the glories of our 
 beloved Fraternity. The alumni present represented 
 over thirty classes in Theta's history, and it was the 
 largest gathering of our alumni on record with the 
 exception of that famous semi-centennial reunion in 
 1894, which has been told about on a previous page. 
 
 The Orator and Poet of that semi-centennial reunion 
 were chosen as the Orator and Poet of the house dedii- 
 cation reunion, seven years later, not from any lack of 
 orators and poets, but because everybody wanted to 
 hear these two again. The Orator was Ex-Attorney- 
 General Orville D. Baker, '68, of Augusta, and the 
 Poet, Judge Henry S. Webster, '67, of Gardiner, the 
 former conceded to be the most brilliant and eloquent 
 public speaker in Maine, and the latter a witty and 
 graceful writer. As the subject of his oration Mr. 
 Baker took the original motto of the Fraternity and, in 
 the masterly fashion of his great legal demonstrations, 
 showed the true significance of that motto and its vast 
 influence. In conception and execution the oration 
 was a gem, and it was received with great enthusiasm. 
 Judge Webster's poem, after a humorous introduction, 
 closed with the following dedicatory lines : 
 
KINSHIP WITHIN THE CHAPTER. 95 
 
 "And may these walls, whose builders have so well 
 Performed the task entrusted to their hands, 
 
 Be Learning's home and Friendship's citadel, 
 Where we, obedient to our heart's commands, 
 
 "May meet as pilgrims at a holy shrine. 
 
 Yet not for penance or for rites austere. 
 But in the spirit of that jovial line 
 
 By Chaucer made to all the world so dear. 
 
 "Forever stand, ye walls, and be ye now 
 
 Forever and forever dedicate 
 To Wisdom of the clear and lofty brow. 
 
 Prompting her sons to deeds supremely great; 
 
 "To Honor, standing with his spotless shield, 
 Warder against the ribald crew of shame ; 
 
 To Truth, whose treasuries alone can yield 
 Enduring riches and undying fame ; 
 
 "To Love, white-robed, sincere, immaculate. 
 Mother of Graces, Queen of Joy and Song. 
 
 Well may her sacred presence guard our gate 
 And keep our bonds forever close and strong." 
 
 As we look over the membership lists of the Chapter 
 there is interest in observing to what extent the ele- 
 ment of kinship figures ; how many mem- 
 KiNSHiP ^^^^ have contributed sons to A K E ; 
 WITHIN THE ^^<^w many members have been able to 
 CHAPTER, speak of others as brothers by ties of blood 
 as well as by the bonds of the Fraternity. 
 In the brief biographical sketches later in this volume 
 the family relationships within the Fraternity are indi- 
 cated as far as they are known to the writer, but it is

 quite possible that there are other instances not 
 recorded there, particularly where fathers have had 
 sons in other Chapters of A K E than Theta. As far as 
 can be ascertained, thirty-three members of our Chap- 
 ter have given sons to the Fraternity. The sons of 
 eighteen have been members of Theta Chapter, and the 
 sons of fifteen have been members of other Chapters : 
 six in Phi at Yale ; four in Alpha at Harvard ; four in 
 Sigma at Amiherst; two in Tau at Hamilton; two in 
 Theta Zeta at the University of California, and one in 
 Xi at Colby. 
 
 Our Chapter has had twenty-nine members who 
 were sons of Dekes, twenty-one being the sons of 
 members of Theta, and eight the sons of members of 
 Xi at Colby. The first son of an active member to be 
 initiated into the Chapter was W. E. Hatch, '75, whose 
 father was S. W. Hatch, '47. There were, however, 
 several sons of honorary members in earlier classes 
 than '75. Among the present undergraduate members 
 there are six whose fathers were members before them. 
 No fewer than one hundred and twenty-two members 
 of Theta have had brothers in the Fraternity. The 
 most noticeable instances of this degree of kinship are 
 in the Pickard, Payson and Baxter families. Of the 
 first named there were five brothers who became mem- 
 bers of the Fraternity in its earliest years ; the oldest 
 was an honorary member of Theta, and the others 
 were in Theta, '46, '48, and '57, and in Sigma Chapter 
 at Amherst, '58. There were four Payson brothers in 
 the delegations of ''jd, '80, '81 and '93 respectively, 
 and four Baxter brothers in the delegations of '78, '81,

 '94 and '98. The first instance, as far as the writer 
 knows, of three generations in A K E, came with 
 the initiation of J. B. Drummond and W. B. Drum- 
 mond as members of Theta, '07. Their father was a 
 member of Xi Chapter, Colby, 'y'j, and their grand- 
 father was J. H. Drummond, Xi, '46, the beloved 
 founder and patron saint of the Chapter at Colby. Of 
 the more remote degrees of kinship, as uncles, nephews 
 and cousins, there have been about fifty instances in 
 our Chapter, and these are also indicated in the 
 biographical sketches. 
 
 In general, the matter of kinship has been an 
 important element in the Chapter's prosperity and 
 strength, and will doubtless figure even more prom- 
 inently in the coming years than it has in the past. It 
 is natural and proper that those of the same family 
 should be in the same Fraternity, and this rule has very 
 generally prevailed at Bowdoin except in a few iso- 
 lated instances where circumstances have arisen to 
 modify it. 
 
 The story of our Chapter would be incomplete 
 indeed if no summary were given of the prizes and 
 
 honors won by its members in scholar- 
 5onE OF ship, athletics, and other forms of under- 
 
 THE PRIZES graduate activity. Such distinctions are 
 AND HONORS, tangible pieces of evidence by which a 
 
 Fraternity is largely judged by its con- 
 temporaries and by the world, though they by no means 
 measure the full life, fellowship, influence and strength 
 of the organization. The best college Fraternity is not 
 one whose members are all "digs" or all athletes or all 
 
98 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 prayer meeting leaders or all "sports," but one whose 
 members are at the front in various lines and who are 
 all true gentlemen and good fellows together, with the 
 Fraternity ideal and the Fraternity bond never lost 
 sight of. Such an all around Fraternity has Theta of 
 A K E been during the past sixty years, and such 
 it aims to be in the future. 
 
 Tables of figures would be dry things, and there is 
 no occasion to make specific comparisons with the 
 achievements of other Fraternities, but we cannot 
 refrain from giving a few figures taken from the Col- 
 lege records, which are open to all, which demonstrate 
 that the Chapter motto, ''We Stand Among the First," 
 is true not only of Theta's chronological position in our 
 Fraternity's history, but also of its position at Bowdoin 
 along all lines in which it is honorable to excel ; more- 
 over, it is an easy task as well as a pleasant one for the 
 historian of the Chapter to show that it has distanced 
 all competitors in taking the highest undergraduate 
 prizes and honors. And in reading the figures given 
 on the following pages it should constantly be borne 
 in mind that A K E at Bowdoin has never had fewer 
 than three strong rival Fraternities, and that in recent 
 years the number has grown to six or seven. 
 
 Taking first the matter of scholarship honors, it may 
 safely be asserted that neither for the sixty years as a 
 whole nor for any considerable portion of it has Theta 
 been outranked by a rival. The encouragement of sound 
 scholarship among its members has been an aim always 
 kept prominently in view, and the results speak for 
 themselves. The founders of the Chapter were men 
 
SOME OF THE PRIZES AND HONORS. 99 
 
 of high rank in scholarship; one of them was elected! 
 to Phi Beta Kappa; another won the Junior Decla- 
 mation Prize — one of the two or three prizes then 
 awarded — and one of the first initiates of the 
 young Chapter was later the Salutatorian of the class 
 of '46. The sixty years that have followed have been 
 worthy of that beginning. With one solitary excep- 
 tion, every class which has graduated from Bowdoin 
 in all that period has had members of Theta Chapter 
 both among its Phi Beta Kappa m.en and among its 
 Commencement speakers. Moreover, in twenty-two 
 of those classes the man ranking the highest in scholar- 
 ship has been a member of our Chapter, and in an even 
 larger number of classes the Chapter has furnished the 
 men ranking second in the class. No rival Fraternity 
 can approach these figures. In one class, — that of 
 1870, — ^nine of the twelve men elected to Phi Beta 
 Kappa were members of A K E. In another class, 
 — that of 1875 — the three highest ranking men, Hall, 
 Cressey, and Holmes, were all Dekes and practically 
 tied for first place. In several other classes both the 
 first and second men have been Dekes, those of 1893 
 and 1901 being the most recent cases of this kind. In 
 the history of the Chapter a total of one hundred and 
 fifty-one of its members have been elected to Phi Beta 
 Kappa — a far larger number than any rival Fraternity 
 can boast of, and a proportion of our membership 
 which speaks most eloquently of the high average of 
 scholarship maintained. 
 
 Touching on the individual prizes and awards, it 
 may be said that only two of them — the Junior and 
 
 L.ofC. 
 
lOO THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Sophomore Declamation Prizes — are as old as the 
 Fraternity system at Bowdoin. In both of these Theta 
 Chapter has beaten all rivals, its members winning 
 thirteen firsts and twelve seconds of the former, and 
 fifteen firsts and fourteen seconds in the latter. The 
 English Composition Prizes were established a few 
 years later, and of these our members have won thirty- 
 four firsts and twenty-two seconds, again distancing 
 the field. Of the more modern prizes, members of 
 A K E have won the Sewall Latin Prize twelve 
 times ; the Sewall Greek Prize eight times ; the Smyth 
 Mathematical Prize eight times ; the First Brown 
 Extemporaneous Composition Prize six times, and the 
 Second Prize ten times ; the Goodwin Commencement 
 Prize, four times, and the Class of '68 Prize, seven 
 times. In three of these six prizes all rivals have been 
 beaten, and in the other three second place is taken. 
 
 Of the two prominent prizes still later established, 
 the Pray English Prize, founded by one of our honor- 
 ary members, has been won by Dekes six times out of 
 thirteen times awarded ; and the Noyes Political 
 Economy Prize has been won by Dekes three times out 
 of five times awarded. It is needless to add that all 
 rivals have been beaten in these two prizes. Of other 
 prizes from time to time awarded in various branches, 
 the members of Theta have never failed to win their 
 share. Particularly creditable were the successive 
 captures of the St. Croix Debate Prize, awarded sev- 
 eral times in the 'seventies. The most lucrative prize 
 now within reach of Bowdoin men is the Charles 
 Carroll Everett Scholarship, established by Charles 
 
SOME OF THE PRIZES AND HONORS. lOI 
 
 Carroll Everett, Theta, '50. This yields about $500 
 annually, to be given to the Bowdoin graduate deemed 
 best qualified to take a post graduate course in this or 
 some other country. It was awarded for the first time 
 in 1903, and appropriately enough it was conferred 
 upon a member of A K E — A. S. Dyer, '91. 
 
 In the establishment of the various branches of 
 athletics as each in turn came to the front at Bowdoin, 
 members of Theta Chapter were particularly promi- 
 nent, and in each branch have Dekes since been con- 
 spicuous leaders. Baseball, the oldest of our college 
 sports, has been played at Bowdoin for no fewer than 
 twelve seasons, with Dekes as captains of the nine. 
 To any man who has followed the history of this game 
 at our College, the names of Payson, Jacobs, Wright, 
 Dearth, Pushor, Talbot, Hilton, Plaisted, Hinckley, 
 Fairbanks, Haines, Bacon, Havey and Cox suggest 
 some of its most brilliant stars. 
 
 It was the same in rowing while that continued a 
 popular branch of athletics at Bowdoin. On the first 
 intercollegiate crew that was sent to the Regatta at 
 Springfield, in 1872, two of the six men were Dekes — 
 A. G. Ladd, '73, and C. H. Hunter, '74. On the occa- 
 sional intercollegiate crews and the many class crews 
 of the twenty years that followed, Theta was always 
 well represented. W. G. Reed, '82, was captain of the 
 crew sent by Bowdoin to the Lake George Regatta, in 
 188 1 ; and C. E. Adams, '84, captain and stroke of 
 the Bowdoin crew at the Saratoga Regatta, in 1894. 
 The captain of the Bowdoin crew at the Lake Quin- 
 sigamond Regatta, in 1885, was F. N. Whittier, '85. 
 
I02 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 This cr€w won the race in the fastest time that had 
 ever been made by a four-oared crew, but its record 
 was broken by the victorious Bowdoin crew on Lake 
 George the following year, of which H. C. Jackson, 
 '91, was a member. From first to last Theta always 
 had more than its share of the members of the class 
 crews, and it is worthy of note that on the last class 
 crew to race upon the Androscoggin — that represent- 
 ing the class of '97 — three of the four men were 
 Dekes — C. S. Sewall, J. M. Shute and H. B. Rhines. 
 In the first game of football ever played at Bowdoin 
 with an outside eleven — that played with Tufts, Octo- 
 ber 12, 1889, four men on the Bowdoin team were 
 Dekes. From that time to this on every Bowdoin 
 eleven some of the most strenuous gridiron heroes 
 have been members of our Chapter ; and five of Bow- 
 doin's fifteen football captains have been Dekes — a 
 larger number than any rival Fraternity can boast of. 
 No Bowdoin man of recent years will forget the work 
 done by Cothren, Bartlett, the Hilton brothers and 
 Carleton in the early years of the game; or the vic- 
 tories won under the leadership of Fairbanks, who was 
 more feared by rival colleges than any other man who 
 ever wore a Bowdoin sweater; or the playing of 
 Dewey, Stubbs, Eastman and Bates in the middle 
 'nineties ; or how Veazie, by a run of sixty yards with 
 Fairfield interfering, saved the game with the Univer- 
 sity of Maine, in 1896, from being a tie ; or how Bacon 
 won the game with Bates, in 1899 ; or how Bod well in 
 every game that Bowdoin played for four years, 
 showed himself the greatest center that ever played in 
 
SOME OF THE PRIZES AND HONORS. IO3 
 
 Maine; or how Porter scored on Harvard, in 1902, 
 after a run of one hundred and five yards ; or how 
 opposing Hnes were bucked by Wilson, one of the 
 Hghtest and pluckiest fullbacks ever seen on a college 
 gridiron. 
 
 In field and track athletics from the time of the field 
 days over in Topsham down to the present, no Frater- 
 nity at Bowdoin can compare with ours in its long list 
 of star athletes. The first team sent to Worcester, 
 when Bowdoin became a member of the New England 
 Intercollegiate Athletic Association, went there under 
 the captaincy of a Deke, Carleton, '93 ; and the first 
 team to bring back the championship from Worcester 
 was led by a Deke, Godfrey, '99. Theta has also 
 furnished another track captain in Nutter, '03, the 
 best half mile runner that the State ever knew, giving 
 A K E three track captains, a total unequalled by 
 any Fraternity. In several of the recent Maine Inter- 
 collegiate Field Days when Bowdoin has won the 
 championship, half, or nearly half, of its points have 
 been won by Dekes; and among the field and track 
 athletes of the present time none are better known in 
 Maine than Denning, the State champion in the 
 weights, and Bates, the State's fastest sprinter. 
 
 The first tennis court at Bowdoin was that con- 
 structed by the members of Theta, near South Apple- 
 ton, in 1886, and upon it nearly all the tournaments 
 have since been played. In these tournaments and in 
 the intercollegiate matches the members of Theta have 
 always taken a prominent part, and conspicuous among 
 the college and State champions whom it has furnished 
 
104 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 have been Dana, '94, Dana, '01, and Paine, '03. In 
 concluding this brief mention of some of the laurels 
 won by sons of Theta in athletics, we point to the 
 beautiful Whittier Field, named in honor of the man 
 who made it a reality — Dr. F. N. Whittier, '85, the 
 ever loyal Deke and the man who has done more than 
 any other for athletics at Bowdoin. 
 
 Scholarship and athletics are not the only fields in 
 which undergraduate honors are won. In college 
 journalism at Bowdoin the members of Theta have 
 been particularly prominent. Since the Bugle became 
 an annual, six numbers have been issued with a mem- 
 ber of A K E as editor-in-chief. A much better record 
 has been made in the case of the Orient, of which 
 thirteen volumes out of thirty-two have been published 
 with a member of A K E as editor-in-chief. The 
 Quill was founded by Baxter, '98, and in four 
 years out of the eight that this literary monthly has 
 existed the chairman of its editorial board has been a 
 Deke. In the cases of the Orient and Quill no other 
 Fraternity approaches the record of ours. The songs 
 and the singing of our Fraternity are justly famed, and 
 it is fitting that within the past decade four leaders of 
 the Bowdoin Glee Club have been members of Theta. 
 Perhaps no undergraduate honor at Bowdoin is more 
 highly prized than that of being chosen Popular Man 
 by the Junior Class and thereby made the recipient of 
 the coveted Wooden Spoon on Ivy Day. Since the 
 establishment of this custom by the Class of 'y6 the 
 honor has fallen twelve times to members of Theta, 
 
A FEW FIGURES. IO5 
 
 while no other Fraternity has won it more than seven 
 times. 
 
 The names on the membership roll of Theta Chapter 
 reach a total of 635 ; this includes the 26 honorary 
 members and the 39 members of the present 
 A FEW active Chapter. Deducting these two classes, 
 piauREs. there are 570 active alumni members of the 
 Chapter, of whom 407 are living, and 163 
 dead. Three of the 26 honorary members are living. 
 Among the biographical sketches on the following 
 pages the incomplete life records of nine are con- 
 cluded with the words, "Cannot be traced." These 
 have all been classed as living, although it is highly 
 probable that several are dead. No doubt a little 
 more time than has been possible in the preparation of 
 this volume would clear up most of these cases. The 
 number of men in Theta Chapter from the classes of 
 1845 to 1907 inclusive has averaged 9.67 from each 
 class. The largest delegations were from the classes 
 of '54, '57, '82, and '91, each numbering 16 men ; and 
 the smallest were from the classes of '45, '83, and '86, 
 each of which contained but two men. Among 
 Th eta's members have been 18 who came to Bowdoin 
 from other colleges where they had been made mem- 
 bers of the Fraternity. Of these, 12 have come from 
 Xi Chapter at Colby ; three from Gamma Phi at Wes- 
 leyan; two from Sigma at Amherst, and one from Pi 
 at Dartmouth. On the other hand, 12 men initiated 
 into Theta Chapter and leaving Bowdoin before the 
 completion of their course, have affiliated with Chap- 
 ters of the Fraternity at other colleges. Of these, 
 
I06 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 six have become members of Pi at Dartmouth; two 
 have gone to Sigma at Amherst ; and one each to Phi 
 at Yale, Theta Chi at Union, Upsilon at Brown, and 
 Epsilon at WilHams. Of the 570 alumni members of 
 Theta, 455 received their degrees from Bowdoin ; 24 
 left Bowdoin to complete their course in other institu- 
 tions; 17 died as undergraduates; 16 left their studies 
 to go to the front in the Civil War, and the remainder 
 for various reasons failed to complete their college 
 work. In the last named class are those compelled to 
 leave college on account of ill health or through finan- 
 cial reasons ; also the number, probably not too small 
 to be noted, who had their difficulties with an obdurate 
 Faculty concerning curriculum requirements or dis- 
 cipline regulations. Of the 455 to graduate from 
 Bowdoin to date, no fewer than 151 — almost exactly 
 one-third — have been elected to Phi Beta Kappa, a 
 proportion which strikingly shows the high scholar- 
 ship standard of Theta, even without the long list of 
 prizes and honors summarized on earlier pages. 
 
 A word as to the lines of life work chosen by Theta's 
 alumni: we find that 155 have become lawyers; 88, 
 teachers; ']'j, physicians; 56, merchants or manu- 
 facturers; 48, clergymen; 16, bankers, and 13 jour- 
 nalists, while 85 have chosen various other professions, 
 such as the civil service, service in the army or navy, 
 engineering, literature, insurance, railroading, mining, 
 farming, etc. The small number not included in any 
 of these classifications are those who have died very 
 soon after graduation and a few recent graduates who 
 are not yet fully determined as to their life work. 
 
A FEW FIGURES. 10/ 
 
 Among the teachers are included the college professors 
 and school superintendents. It needs only a brief 
 glance through the following pages to show that in 
 every one of these professions Theta has sons who are 
 in the front rank, men of national, and in several cases, 
 international, fame. 
 
 In the matter of high civil honors it is to be noted 
 that Theta has had no fewer than five representatives 
 in the United States Senate, and seven in the United 
 States House of Representatives. The former are 
 Blaine and Hale, honorary members, and Grover, '48, 
 Gibson, '51, and Washburn, '54. The latter are 
 Benson, Blaine, Gilman and Hale, honorary members, 
 and Grover, '48, Washburn, '54, and Alexander, '70. 
 Grover was the first member of A K E to become a 
 member of Congress. At the present time our Chap- 
 ter is represented in the Senate by Hale of Maine and 
 Gibson of Montana; and in the House by Alexander 
 of New York. Among the sons of Theta have also 
 been governors. Federal and State judges, mayors, 
 legislators, United States attorneys, and other high 
 officials at Washington and in many of the states. 
 
 Considered as to geographical distribution, the 
 alumni of Theta are to be found in 43 states, territories 
 and foreign countries. Of course, the vast majority 
 of them were born in Maine, and this State is now the 
 home — or, in the case of those deceased, was the resi- 
 dence at time of death — of 242, considerably less than 
 one-half. The others are credited as follows : Massa- 
 chusetts, 99; New York, 48; New Hampshire, 23; 
 Illinois, 19; California, 17; District of Columbia, 14; 
 
I08 THETA OF DELTA KAPPA EPSILON. 
 
 Minnesota, 12; Pennsylvania, 10; Connecticut, seven; 
 Colorado, New Jersey, Washington and Wisconsin, 
 six each ; Louisiana and Montana, five each ; Texas 
 and Rhode Island, four each ; Indiana, Nebraska, Ten- 
 nessee and Oregon, three each; Iowa, Michigan and 
 Kentucky, two each; Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, 
 Georgia, Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, North Caro- 
 lina, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, 
 France, Hawaii, Mexico and Turkey, one each. It is 
 probable that this list would be extended if full data 
 could be obtained concerning those whom the writer 
 lias been unable to trace.
