This Historical Catalogue was prepared under tlie auspices of the Board of Trustees of the University. The work has taken much longer time than was expected at its beginning. The loss of so man}- records and papers of the University by the fire of 1884, has prevented more of detail in some parts of the history. Fortunately one large volume of records from 1840 to 1859 was not in the Library at the time of the fire. No doubt many errors and defects will be noticed in the work of the compiler. It is a very difficult if not impossible work, where so much research has to be made, and where so many persons are concerned, to avoid mistakes of different kinds. Many, very many, letters of inquiry have been sent during the progress of the work, to most of which replies liave been re- ceived. The addresses of some of the graduates have not been found, and from a few whose addresses were found, no re- ply could be obtained. The compiler wonld take this occasion to acknowledge his obligations to Col. K. S. Robertson and Judge D. D. Banta for the chapters they have written, and for suggestions made. In addition to these he has received valuable assistance from grad- uates and students, and particularly the editors of the Indiana Student. Through some accident the list of names of the Board of Trustees, which should have been in or near the beginning of the work, is placed at the end. CONTENTS. Page.

The history of legislatiou upon tin- subject of education, es- pecially in its higher grades, in the territory now comprising the State of Indiana, discloses that the founders of the new Republics west of the Alleghenies Avere deeply impressed with the sense of the advantages to be derived from a liberal and thorough system of education by the States which were des- tined to "increase and multiply'" towards the setting sun, and that their descendants and successors have fairly carried out their plans, and have Ituilt well upon the foundations which were laid broad and deep at the beginning of our civic exist- ence. In the preparation of this sketch it has been thought V>est to give the language of the constitutional and legislative enactments, out of which have groAvn the structure known as the Indiana University, especially where important declara- tions or changes of system have been made, rather than to at- tempt to give the substance of the laws. The legal history of the University has thus been traced through the laws organizing and governing the northwest ter- ritory, Indiana territory, and the State of Indiana, exhibiting the legislation of a century of marvelous progress in creating and fostering an institution which is justly the pride and boast of the State, and is recognized as one of its greatest bulwarks. In the early planting of the educational germ in America, and its development through trials and vicissitudes to its pres- ent proportions, we owe nearly everything we have received to the Puritan of New England, for long before the more south- ern colonies had abandoned the ideas nourished by an aristo- J— HiSTOBT. 6 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. cratif monai'cliy tlu- New England colonies took advanced irround ujion the question of free schools, and in 1647 the Plvnionth colonists, by a public act, declared that, ''the Lord assisting' their endeavors,"" they would provide for ''the educa- tion of the i»eople'" by establishing schools to .teach reading and writing, and "grammar schools to fit youth foi- the Uni- versity." ■ In contrast with this, we tind the British (Governor of Vir- ginia in 1670 replying to queries addressed to hiin Iw the home government, using this i-emarkable language: "I thank God thei'e are no free schools or jti-inting, for learning has brought disobedience and heresy and sects into the world, and printing has divulged them."* It is worthy of note that the great do- main ceded l)y \'irginia to tlie United States was endowed with tile great boon of free education l)y New England pio- neer^s, and enjoyed the l)ene"fits flowing from the gift nearly a century before Virginia herself overcame her ]>rejudices and accepted the American idea of education for all, from the highest to the lowest of the peo[ile. It would be gratifying if it could be said that the law-making power of the United States, in providing so lil)erally as it has done for the cause of education in the Northwest Territory, had heen actiuited solely 1)V a desire to diffuse the benefits of leai'uing and knowledge among the people. Ibit the fact is otherwise, and a study of tlie early legislation upon this sul)- ject, and of its causes and motix'es. discloses that a mercenary desii'c on the part of the (Tovernmeut to sell its lands, and on the }»art of speculators to ol)tain good prit-es for the vast tracts tiiey were negotiating to secure, entei'ed largely into the causes which inriuenced. and finally brought about, the beneficent grants of pul)lic lands which l)ecame the foumlation of oui' great system of free schools and free education. ^^)rtunately for the future of the great Tei'ritory which was the subject of negotiation and Oongressiomil discussion, thei'i' were found, among both spectdators and statesmen, men of liroad and enlightened views and liberal minds wlio exerted a t'ontrolling influence in sha[)ing the legislation, among whom stood prominently Col. Timothy Pickering and Manasseh Cut- ler, whose wise counsels and pertinacity of purpose had much to do with bringing al)out the final enactments which provided so liberallv for establishinir and maintaining: not onlv a svstem HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. of common schools for primary education, but the grander and far-reaching university system, in which the higher grades of learning shoukl be open and free to all. To them, and the nol)le men who folk)wed the pathway marked out by them, we o^ve a debt of gratitude which has never been fully paid. CONGRESSIONAL LEGISLATION. THE ORDINANCES OF 1785 AND 1787. While C\)ngress was hesitating in regard to tlie dis])osition of the hinds ceded by tlie States to the (Tcneral (Tovernment, Hufus Putnam and others of the New England soldiers formed the idea of a State, to he hu-ated l)etween Lake Erie and the Ohio, which should he settled by the aiMiiy \'etei"ans and their families. In April, 17H8, Col. Timothy Pickering outlined a plan which Putnam and his associates submitted to Congi'ess, with a petition for leave to found the colony. After providing foi- the distribu- tion of lands to the soldiers in payuient of their services, the plan was proposed that " all the surplus lauds shoidd be the property of the State, and disposed of for the public good, as for hiving out roads, building l)ridges, erecting public buildings, csftihltflnrK/ sehooh and ar-ddemies, defraying the expenses of tlie Govern- ment, and other public uses." In a letter to Washington urg- ing him to assist in furthering its objects, dated June 16, 1783, Putnam suggested the division of the lands into townships six miles square, with reservations for schools and the ministry. The original ordinance presented by Jefferson in 1784 for the organization of the Territory, contained no provision for the school reservations, for on the 8th of March, 1785, Col. Pick- ering, writing to Rufus King, a member of the committee which had it in charge, objected to it because there was " no provis- ion made for the ministers of the gospel, nor even for schools or academies," and said, ''the latter, at least, might have been brought into view." On the 12th or 14th of April, 1785, the committee reported a new ordinance, in which the following HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. clause was inserted : "■ There shall be reserved the central sec- tion of every township for the maintenance of public schools, and the section immediately adjoining for the support of re- ligion." Mr. (xrayson, ;i menihej- of the committee, in a letter to Wanhington, dated A[)ril 15, says: ''The idea of a township with the temptation of a suppoit for religion and education liolds forth an inducement for neighborhoods of the same re- ligious sentiments to confederate for the purpose of purchasing and settling together. On the 28d of April the clause relating to religion was stricken out, and on the 20th of May the ordi- nance, with many amendments, was adopted. The clause re- lating to education finally stood as follows : " There shall be reserved from sale the lot No. 16 of every township for the maintenance of public schools within the said township." It will be seen not only that mercenary motives, the offering of inducements to purchase, entered largely into the scheme, but also that we owe the great endowment of western schools, not to Jefferson, as has been claimed, but to Col. Pickering. This oi'dinance was a temporary expedient, and did not meet the ex]>ectation or demands of the soldiers, and the Ohio Com- [»jiny was formed in 17HH, which, in March, 1787, elected as directoi's, Samuel Holden Parsons, Manasseh Cutler and Rufus Putnam, who in May pi'esented a memorial to Congress, which was at once referred to a special committee. This committee in two days reported a hill, but differing materially from the plan proposed by the Ohio Company. Two days later, July 13, 1787, it passed, and becann; the famous Ordinance for the Government of the N^orthwest Territory. The third article declared that '' Religion, morality and knowl- edge l)eing necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the, means of education shall be forever encouraged.'' During this time the [u-oposals of the Ohio Company to pur- chase lands were being considered by Congress, and finally the committee i-ecommended the sale on the terms demanded by the company, /. < ., one lot in each township for common schools, one lot for the su])port of the ministry, and four townships for tlu' estahlishuu'nt of a university. This recommendation Congress tliought too liberal, and framed an ordinance reserving only lot No. 16 for schools, as HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 9 provided in the ordinance of 1785. This did not suit Dr. Cut- ler, who submitted another proposal as containing the only conditions on which the company would purchase. Needing the money oifered, Congress unwillingly accepted the terms, and on the 23d of July passed the ordinance, providing that lot No. 16 be given perpetually to the maintenance of schools, and lot 29 to the purposes of religion, and two townships near the center for the support of a literary institution, to be applied to the intended object by the Legislature of the State. Under this was the Ohio Company's purchase completed, and in the same year John Cleves Symmes purchased a large tract in the Territory with similar reservations for schools and the minis- try, and one township for a seminary of learning. Following upon this, the act of Congress of March 26, 1804 (U. S. Statutes at Large, 2277), entitled " an act making provision for the disposal of the public lands in the Indiana Territory, and for other purposes,'' established three land districts, viz : Detroit, Kaskaskia and Vincennes. The fifth section enacts that certain lands " shall, with the exception of the section numbered sixteen, which shall be re- served in each township for the support of schools within the same ; also of an entire township in each of the three described tracts of country or districts, to be located by the Secretary of the Treasury, for the use of a seminary of learning, * * be ojffered for sale," etc. On the 10th of October, 1806, Albert Gallatin, Secretary of the Treasury, located township ISTo. 2 south, range 11 east, now in Gibson County, Indiana, for the use of a seminary of learn- ing, as required by said act. On the 19th of April, 1816, Congress, by the act to provide for the admission of Indiana as a State of the Union, provided "that one entire township, which shall be designated by the President of the United States, in addition to the one hereto- fore reserved for that purpose, shall be reserved for the use of a Seminary of learning, and vested in the Legislature of said State, to be appropriated solely to the use of such Seminary by the said Legislature. (3 U. S. Statutes, 289.) When the Convention met at Corydon to frame a Constitu- tion for the State of Indiana, on motion of Mr. Johnson, a committee consisting of Jonathan Lindley, Benjamin Parke, and James Noble was appointed on the 19th day of June, 1816, 10 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. to select siu'li towiisliip for (lesitjiiatioii hy tlie President. On tlie same day, the committee addressed a note to the Register and Receiver of tlie Land Office at Vincennes, i)Oth of whom were |»i-esent at the Convention, John Badollet, the Register, heing a member and serving npon tlie ('ommittee on Educa- tion, re(inesting that township nnmliered eigfit, range one west, be recommended to the President foi- reservation. On the fol- lowing day, June 20, the Register and Receiver complied with this reqnest of the committee, and the location thus made was approved by President Madison on the fOth day of July, 1816. The county in which the h)cation was made was, when or- ganized, christened with the name of President Monroe, and the to.wnship thns chosen was christened with the name of Commodore Perrv. THE NORTHWEST TERRITORY. The first law-making jiower of the Northwest Territory cre- ated by the Ordinance of 17S7, consisting of the Governor and Judges a])]>oint(Ml by the President, seems to have enacted no laws ni)on the subject of free education, but when the people became entitled to representation in the TerritorialLegislature we find them hastening to cai-i-y out the declaration of the Ordinance in regard to encouraging good government and the happiness of mankind by establishing and fostering a system of education, in which the highei- branches of learning were to foi'in a conspicuous part. The first enactment to this end was passed during the first session of the first Territorial Legislature of the Northwest Territory. It was entitled, ^'An act establishing an university in the town of Athens," and was approved January 9, 1802. (Laws N. W. Ter. 1802, p. IHl.) Its preamble recites: •"Whereas, instimtioiis for the liberal education of youth are essential to the progress of arts and sciences, important to morality, virtue and religion, friendly to the peace, order and prosj.crity of society, and honorable to the Government that encourages and patronizes theiii : and, whereas, the Congress of the Pnited States did nnike a grant of two townships ofland within the purchase made i)y the Ohio Company of Associates, for the encouragement and support of an university therein ; and, whereas, the interference of the Legislature is rendered HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 11 necesisary to [(oiiit out and direct the mode in whieli the same shall be brought into operation, that the benelit of the grant may be applied to the purposes designed, therefore," etc. It was to be known by the name and style of the '■' American Western University for the instruction of youth in all the vari- ous branches of the liberal arts and sciences, for the promotion of good education, virtue, religion and morality, and for con- ferriuii- all the dei>:rees and literarv honors o^ranted in similar institutions." Rufus Putnam, Joseph Oilman, Return Jonathan Meigs, Jr., Rev. Daniel Story, (Iriffin Greene, Robert Oliver, Ebenezer Sproat, Dudley W()odl)ridge and Isaac Pierce, with the President of the ITniversity for the time being, were created a body politic, witli succession, as the President and Trustees of the American Western Universitv. INDIANA TERRITORY. When Oliio became a State, and Indiana Territory was cre- ated, the same liberal ])olicy was followed, and "An act to in- cor]»orate an university in the Indiana Territory" was passed, and approved l>y the Governor, William Henry Harrison, No- vember 9, 180(1. (Laws 1806, p. 6; revision 1807, p. 407.) The preaml)le is as follows : '' Whereas^ The independence, happiness and energy of every republic depends (under the in- fluence of the destinies of Heaven) upon the wisdom, virtue, talents and energy of its citizens and rulers ; and ivhereas, science, literature and the liberal arts contribute in an eminent degree to improve those qualities and acquirements; and irhereas, learning has ever been found the ablest advocate of genuine liberty, the best supporter of national religion, and the source of the only imperishable glory which nations can acquire ; and forasmuch, as literature and philosophy furnish the most useful and pleasing occupations, improving and varying the enjoyments of prosperity, affording relief under the pressure of misfortune and hope and consolation in the hour of death; and considering that, in a commonwealth where the humblest citizen may be elected to the highest public offices, and where the Heaven-born prerogative of the right to elect and reject is retained and secured to the citizens, the knowledge which is re- quisite for a magistrate and elector, should be widely diffused ; 12 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. " iSECTioN 1. Be if therefore enacted by the Legislative Council and House of Representatives, That an University be and is lierebv instituted and incorporated within this Territory, to be caHed and known by the name or style of 'The Vincennes University;' that William Henry Harrison, John Gibson, Thomas T. Davis, Henry Vanderburgh, Waller Taylor, Benja- min Parke, Peter Jones, James Johnson, John Badollet, John Rice Jones, George Wallace, William Bullitt, Elias McNamee, Henry Hurst, General W. Johnston, Francis Vigo, Jacob Kuy- kendoll, Samuel McKee, Nathanial Ewing, George Leach, Luk© Decker, Samuel Gwathmey, and John Johnson, are hereby de dared to be Trustees of the said University," with power to elect to fill vacancies, and to make by-laws, ordinances and reg- ulations for its government not inconsistent with the charter or laws of the Territory, or of the United States. By the terms of vSection 6, the Trustees were, " as speedily as may 1k',"' to establish an University within the borough of Vincennes, and to appoint, to preside over and govern it, a F^resident, and not exceeding four professors, "for the instruc- tion of youth kx\ the Latin, French and English languages. Mathematics, Natural Philosophy, Logic, Rhetoric, and the Law of Nature and of Nations." The Faculty was empowered to grant, with the consent of the Trustees, degrees in the lib- eral arts and sciences to such students of the LTniversity who, by their proficiency in learning, should be considered entitled to them, and to grant di])lomas to authenticate and perpetuate the memory of graduations. It was made the duty of the Trustees to establish a library, and from time to time elect a Professor of Divinit}^ of Law, and of Physic, whenever they might deem it necessary for the good of the institution, but no particular tenets of religion were to be taught. Then follows: '■'•And. whereas. The establishment of an institution of this kind in the neighborhood of the aborigines of this country may tend to the gradual civilization of the rising generation, and if properly conducted be of essential service to themselves, and contribute greatly to the cause of humanity and brotherly love, which all men ought to bear to each other of whatever color, and tend also to preserve that friendship and harmony which ought to exist between the Government and the In- dians," the Trustees were enjoined " to use their utmost en- I I HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 13 deavors to induce the said aborigines to send their children to said University for education, who, when sent, shall be main- tained, clothed and educated at the expense of said institution," It was further provided, that when the funds would permit, all students were to be educated gratis in all or any of the branches of education they might require. Curious as it may seem at this day, the funds for the support of the institution, for procuring a library and philosophical and experimental apparatus, were to be raised by a lottery, "to be conducted by five discreet persons," to be chosen by the Board of Trustees. The sum authorized to be raised by this means was not to exceed twenty thousand dollars. This University, at Vincennes, was destined in later days to come in conflict with the Indiana Univtirsity in such a manner as to seriously threaten its stability, but fortunately the danger was averted. THE STATE OF INDIANA. The Constitution adopted at Corydon, June 91, 1816, upon which the territory became a State of the Union, declared with no uncertain sound in favor of advanced education, as well as common schools. Sections 1 and 2 of Article 9 read as follows {Rev. Laios 1824, j). 48) : " Section 1. Knowledge and learning, generally dilfused through a community, being essential to the ];)reservation of a fi-ee government, and spreading the opportunities and advan- tages of education through the various parts of the country being highly conducive to this end, it shall be the duty of the G-eneral Assembly to provide, by law, for the improvement of such lands as are, or hereafter may be, granted by the United States to this State for the use of schools, and to apply any funds which may be raised from such lands, or from any other, quarter, to the accomplishment of the grand object for which they are, or may be intended, but no lands granted for the use of schools or seminaries of learning shall be sold by authority of this State prior to the year eighteen hundred and twenty, and the moneys which may be raised out of the sale of any such lands, or otherwise obtained for the purposes aforesaid, shall be and remain a fund for the exclusive purpose of pro- moting the interest of literature and the sciences, and for the 14 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVKRSITY. suppoi-t of semiiiaric's and pulilic schools.

THE IXniANA COLliE<;E. By the act approved danuary 24, 1S2S (Laws 1828, \k 115), a college was estahlished at Bloomington, under the nanu' and style of ''Tlie Indiana (\dlege,"" for the e(hicati(m of youth in the '■'■ American, leai'iied and foreign languages, the useful arts, sciences and literature."' A Board of Trustees consisting of tifteeii persons, residents of the State, was ai)[)ointed, consisting of Edward Borland, Samuel Dodds, Leroy Maytield, Jonathan Nichols, -James Blair, David H. Maxwell, William Bannister aud William Lowe, of 20 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. the county of Monroe; George H. Dunn, of Dearborn; ChriB- topher Han-ison, of Washington ; tSeth M. Leavenworth, of ('rawft)r(h John Law, of Knox; Williamson Dunn, of Mont- gomery : Ovid Butler, of Slielby, and Bethuel F. Morris, of Marion. They were empowered to iill vacancies in their own body, and after the first meeting, on the tirst Monday of May, 1828, were to determine the time of their future meetings and nnike all regulations for the government of the College and their own body as they deemed expedient, and to choose the oriicei-s and faculty. They also had the right to remove any otRcers of the corporation or College at discretion, and could remove meml)ers of their own Board for misconduct, breach of tiic b\-laws or gross immorality. jS^o President, professor or otHcei- of the College could be a Trustee. No instructor could be recpiired to profess any |)articular religious opinions, and no student was to t)e denii'd admission, or refused any privileges, honors or degrees, on account of religious opinions, and no sectarian principles were to be taught or inculcated. All the moneys arising fi-om the sale of the Seminary town- shi|ts in Monroe ami (4ibson counties were to remain forever as a i»ei'manent fund foi' the use of the College, and all the pi'oi)erty of the State Seminary was vested in the Board of Trustees of the Indiana College, to l>e used for the best inter- ests and ju-osperity of the institution. Benjamin Parke of Washington (.'ounty, James Scott of Clark, Jesse L. Holman of Dearborn, Isaac Blackford of Knox, and Ceorge Bush of Marion were ap])ointed a Board of Vis- itoi-s to annually visit the college, examine its property, real and pei-sonal, insjtect the course of instruction and the pro- ceedings and by-laws of the Board of Trustees, and to recom- mend such alterations as they might deem necessary ; to inquire into the financial condition of the college, and report the result to tlu' (70\eriuir, who was to lay it before the General Assem- bly. This Boai'd was to continue until the Legislature ap- pointed others in its stead. By a joint resolution, approve]»ointed one of the Board of Visitors to iill a vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Hon. Benjamin Parke ; and l)y a joint resolution, approved Fel)ruarv 2. 1833, Allen Wilev of Switzt-rland Countv, and Calvin Riitei- of Marion .i.3^ > [T < t ir 00 ^ Q] < J iiJ u J J % < CO z 0) < ^ Q Z u I h z Q J D [D y 0, u J J h q: HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 21 were appointed Visitors to till vacancies caused by the refusal of Robert R.

Under its provisions each county in the State l)ecame entitled to send a student, whose tuition was to be gratis, and who was to be selected by the Boards do- ing county business in the respective counties, preference being given to those least able to pay for tuition. Each student so selected was to liave free tuition for two years, with all the privileges of those who paid for their tuition, and at the end of two years their places were to be tilled by the County Board in the saiu^ manner as the iirst were selected. Between the time of establishing the Indiana College and the year 1840, a numher of special acts providing for the sale of hinds, and the loaning and other disposition of the funds were passed, but they are deemed of too little importance in the k'gal history of the college to be worthy of insertion bore. THE INDIANA UNIVERSITY. We have now reached a point of import to the institution, for the "Indiana College" was converted into ''The Indiana University '' by " an act to establish a university in the State of Indiana," approved February 15, 1838 (Local Laws, 1838, p. 294), and a new ei-a in its history was entered upon. The act is as follows : " Section 1. Be It oiacted hij the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, Tluit there shall be, and hereby is created and es- tablished a University adjacent to the town of Bloomington, in the county of Monroe, for the education of youth in the American, learned and foreign languages, the useful arts, sciences (including law and medicine) and literature, to be known by the name and style of the Indiana University, and to be governed and directed as hereinafter directed. "' Sec. 2.

Eg- gleston of Jetferson, William T. S. Cornet of Hijiley, Kobert Dale Owen of Posey, Nathaniel West of Marion, John Law of Knox, David H. Maxwell of Monroe, Elisha M. Huntington of Vigo, Lot Bloomtield of Wayne and James Scott of (Mark, were named as sucli Trustees. They were empoAx-ered to till vacan- cies in the Boai'd, and to determine the times of holding their semi-annual- meetings after the tii'st, which was to commence on the 3d Monday of July in that year. No two of the Trus- tees were to be from the same county. The civil courts were deprived of jurisdiction to punish stu- dents for trivial breaches of the peace Avhich might be commit- ted within the college campus, and the students were exempted from militia duty and road taxes. Any Trustee failing to attend two consecutive regular meet- ings, without pi'eseuting satisfactory t'xcuse in writing, forfeited his seat as a mend)er of the Board, and the coni})ensation of the 28 HISTORY OF IND[ANA UN1VER8ITY.

By an act, approved January 17, 1842 (Laws 1842, p. 143), eaeh county of the State was authorized to send to the Uni- versity one additional student free from payment of tuition fees. A "Joint Resolution," approved January 27, 1842 (Laws 1842, p. 174), recites that— " Whereas, It is made the duty of the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, by the second section of the 9th article of the Constitution of the aforesaid State, so soon as circumstances will permit, to ])rovide by law for a general system of educa- tion, ascending in a regular gradation from township schools to a State University, wherein tuition shall l)e gratis and open t(^ all ; therefore, " Be It resolved by the (reneral A-i.'^embly of the State of Indiana, That the Trustees of the Indiana Universitj' be, and hereby are required, at the next regular meeting of said Board, to exam- ine into the resources of said University, and make full and complete report of the same to the next Legislature, together with the amount of salaries paid to professors, and all other expenses of said institution ; and also whether, in their opin- ion, the resources of said Univei'sity are sufficient to enable the Legislature to pass a law making tuition gratis, in compliance with the (Constitution of the State above referred to.'' In all ])ro1)ability the report made in compliance with this act showed that it was iinpossiljle, without further and addi- tional resources, for the Legislature never passed any law to carry out that provision of the Constitution, and when it was iinally done, it was by the act of the Trustees, and not of the Legislature. Li 1845 the Board of Trustees of the Vincennes University made claim to the title in the Gibson County Seminary lands, and to proceeds of the sales made by the State, which had been transferred to the Indiana University, and a suit was brought to test the question of title. There being no law by which the State could be sued, this suit was abandoned, and application made to the Legislature for leave to test the question by a civil ac- tion. In response to this demand, " an act to authorize the Trust- ees of the Vincennes University to bring suit against the State I HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 29 of Indiana, and for other purposes," was passed, and approved January 17, 1846. (Local laws 1846, p. 233.) It authorized the filing of a bill in chancery, in the nature of an action of disseizin in the Marion Circuit Court, giving that C/Ourt full .jurisdiction of the matter, and of the parties to the suit. ' The Governor, upon whom process was required to be served, was required to employ counsel to defend. It was further pro- vided that, if the suit was determined in favor of the Vincen- nes University, upon its Board of Trustees relinquishing to the State the lands sold, the State should set apart to its Board of Trustees the fund arising from the sales, and the bringing of the suit was to be deemed an election by said Board of Trustees to look to the State for compensation of their claim. Nothing in the act was to be construed to prevent the State from con- testing the corporate existence of the Trustees of the Yincen- nes University. The action was brought, and resulted in a decree by the Marion Circuit Court in favor of the complainants, and re- quiring the State to pay to them the sum of $30,099.66 as the proceeds of the sales of the land. In this suit Samuel Judah appeared as attorney for the claimants and 0. H. Smith and G. G. Dunn for the State and the interests of the University. From this deciee the State appealed to the Supreme Court of the State, which rendered its decision at the November term, 1850, reversing the decree of the Court below, and holding that the act of the Territorial Legislatui'e of 1806, granting the lands to the Vincennes University M^as nugatory, because no such power was vested in it by the act of Congress, and that they were not then in existence as a corporation, having allowed their corporation to lapse (State v. Trustees, etc., 2 Tnd. Rep., 293). The Trustees of the Vincennes University, not satisfied with this decision, sued out a writ of error from the Supreme Court of the United States, whieli, at the December term, 1852, re- versed the decision of the Supreme Court of the State, holding that when the Territorial Legislature of 1806 incorporated a " Board of Trustees of the Viucennes University," the grant of a township in the Vincennes district by the Congress of 1804, and which was located by the Secretary of the Treasury in 1806, attached to this Board, although for the two preced- ing years there had been no grantee in existence, and holding 80 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVEKSITY. fiirtluT. tliat it' till' l)(>;inl of Tnistccs, l)v :i tailupc to fleet wlieii xaeaiicies occii rred, or t liroiiii'li aiiv otlier iiu'aiis heeaine reduced to a less iimiilter tliaii was authorized to act by the (diartcr. tlic coi-poration was not ther('l)y dissolved, hut its tVaii- idiises only siisjicnded until restored hy le^-islati\'e action.

The law declared this necessary by reason of the total destruction of one of the buildings, with its contents, in .Inly, 1888, to replace which the county of Monroe had, with great liberality, contributed the sum of fifty thousand dollars, with which sum the Board of Trustees had purchased a new site for the college campus, and erected two new buildings thereon for the use of the University. HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 37 The progress of legislation for the Indiana University has thns l)een traced through a century of wonderful growth in science, arts, puhlic improvements and general wealth, in what \\as at the beginning a wiklerness far from tlie refinements of civilization. AVhen the idea of establishing seminaries and colleges in the Xorthwest Territory was l)roached the savage red man claimed title to its soil, Spain and Great Britain claimed it by the right of discover}^, the sjtai-se settlements were exposed to all the teiTors of Indian warfare, and the pioneer settler and his family lived in daily dread of the tomahawk and the scaljung knife. The tides of war, both with the savage and with Great Britain, were for majiv years to ebl) and flow over and hold in their vortex these exposed tVontier settlements, and a decade was to elapse before Mad Anthony AVayne should l)reak the backbone of savage supremacy by his skillful and dashing campaign sub- seiiuent to the defeat of llarnier and St. Glair; and a full ([uarter of a century was to l)e tilled with lu-eathiugs of war, pillage and slaughter, ere the founders of western empires were to find peace. Beasts as savage as the Indian roamed throughout the dense forests and over the great })raij'ies, adding to the terrors which sun'ounded the families which founded our iui'ant State. Tlie stately buifalo, the graceful elk and deer, fu i-uishcd them with meat, and skins for clothing. Ere the savage and the wild beast had disai)peared before the footsteps of advancing civilization, log school houses, semina- ries, colleo'es and universities were founded, and moccasined youth, in buckskin breeches or homespun gai'ments, were among those seeking to sij) from the fountain of learning. How changed the times ! liow, the Indiana University stands among the leading insti- tutions of learning which grace our fair land, in the midst of a dense population, close to the center of American empire, and challenges the admiration of the State whose fostering care has for a century been over her. How much she has contributed to the ra[)id develo})ment of the State in virtue, education, wealth and power, who can tell? Let the close of the next centurv of its existence answer. 4— History, n THE IXDIAXA .SE:MIXARY BY .IL'U(JE DAVID D. BAXTA. Oil the iiiiK'tc'CMitli (Uiv of Api'il, one thousaiul eight liundred and sixteen, tlie ('ongi'ess of the United Stateis passed an aet to enahle the i)eo[tle of the Indiana tei'i'itorv to form a C'onstitn- tion and State Government, and to he admitted into the Union on an ecpial footing witli tiie original States. Certain projio- sitions were oiiered to the Convention of the territory when it met to fi'ame a constitution "for their free aeeejttanee or rejee- tion," one of which was that an entire townsiii,j> ''shal! he des- ignated by the J?i-esident of the United States * ■^'' for the use of a seminary of learning, and l)e vested in the Legishitnre of said State, to he a]i])ro])riated sohdy to the use of such sem- imiry." This act lies at the very foundation of the history of the Indiana University. It came as a free-will offering, and it is gi'atifying to know that it was ai-cepted in a spirit as hroad and liheral as that in wliicli it was offered. The Convention to frame a (\)nstitution for tlie new State met at Cory(h)n on the loth of dune of the same yi'ar. and hy the -5(>th of the month the work was (h)ne. A liheral s|)irit animated the iucmhers of the Convention in favor of popular education. With the declaration that " kno^vl- edge and learning generally diffused througli a commnnity" is •'esst-ntial to tlie preservation of free government," they im- l)()sed iijion all fnture general assemhlies of the State the duty of prox'iding hy law for a ''general system of education, as- cendiuij' in a regular gradation from township schools to a State university, wherein tuiticm shall he gratis, and equally open to all." HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 89 On the SOtli of tlie month the Convention adjourned, its hist act being- a formal acceptance of the propositions made bv Congress. Ehn'en days tliereafter James Madison, the Presi- (h'nt, designated Congressional township number eight north, range number one west, in the '' Yincennes District," which townshi}) two years after, in the organization of Monroe county, became a [lart tliereof. At the time of tlie admission the }i()})nhition of Indiana did not, it is l)e]ieved, exceed seventy tliousand.* The settled parts were confined to a narrow fringe of territory extending down tbe Ohio State line from. Wayne County to the (^liio Tviver and thence down that to tbe month of the Wabash, and thence up that to Yincennes. Less than a fourth part of the State was unsui'veycd, and to nearly oi' (piite all the unsurveyed [tarts the Indians still claimed title. From the Seminary Township to the nearest point on the southern Indian l)oundarv line was bnt litle over four miles. 'I'he four years succeeding the adm-ission of the State were marked by a great growth in population. The census of 1820 gave as tlie nnndier 147,178, an increase of a fraction less than twenty-thousand per yeai'. The new emigrants finding the more desirable lands of the older counties taken u|i, pressed out upon the Indian bordei' in search of new homes. In the acts of the Oeneral Assembly creating new counties, we may re-ad something of the story of tbe State's growth. In 1818 nine new ones were organized, a inuubei- never exceeded in one yeai' in tbe history of the State, and iie\'e!' but once e([ualed. The cen.tral regions of fhe State were in possession of the Delawai-e Iiulians, whose l)ra\'es were renowned as liunters and trappers, and \\dio were loth to surrender a country celebrated tor its game and fur-beai-ing animals as was theii's, to take their chances they knew not where. But at length, admon- ished l)v tbe inci-easing numbers of pioneer settlers crowding upon their borders, they consented, in 1818, to cede their lands to the United States, reserving, however, the possession till 1820, at which time the last of the tribe were removed to theii' new home west of tbe Mississippi. As the red men went out at one door, the white moved in at the other, and at the close of tlie year 1820, there was no ])art of the Xew Purchase, after- wards org-anized into a county, in which the smoke from at least one adventurous pioneer's cabin did not ascend. *By a census taken in 1875 the number of free white inhabitants was found to be 63,897. 40 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. In 1815 the first white man, a "jovial tiddler" as well as fearless hunter, founded a home within the present limits of Monroe County, and in the year following the first caltins were l)uilt on the jtresent site of Bloomins^ton. Early in 1818 Mon- I'oe County was organized, and in April of the same year Blooming'ton was stakeh>omington grew rapidly froiii the first, a eii'eunistanee lai'gely due to the nearness of the SiMuiuary township. At the elose of its first year it contained 140 iuhaliitants, living in thirty hastily construeted log cabins. In the following year its jtojuilation was doul)led. By 1820 the public s(|uai-e was cleared of the last of its native forest trees; tile first log court house was outgrown, and CV)1. John Ketcham was at work on a hrick edifice, which still stands in the [)uhlic s(puii"e, an ciuluring monument to honest workmanship. The Constitution inhibited the General Assembly of the State fi'om providing for the sale of any lands set aside for ednca- tional pur})oses for four years next after the organization of the State government. The Assend»ly which was to meet in l)ecend)er, 1820, in Corydon, was the first having the })owei' to take another step toward the establishment of such a school of learning as the Congress of 181(5 had in miiul. There is evidence of the fact that many of the educated men of the new State looked forward with interest to the time when leg- islatixe action c()uld be had. Tlie pioneer scttlei's of Indiana ^\■cl■e j)oor men, and it was with the utmost difficulty that most of tliem were enabled to clear and make farms, and at the same time maintain themselves ami families. In those days the num- ber of children in most families within the school ages was large, and ue\e.r iif the history of the State has there been a time when thci'c was such a })ressing need for common schools, and ne\er was thi-i'c^ less ability to maintain them. The po\'erty of the people l\)rbade an expenditui'e for school purj)oscs in any nnmner commensurate with the wants of the times, nor were there any public funds to supplement their efforts; and worse than all, there were but few teatdiers in tlie new State whose moral and educational (pndifications fitted them to be- come instructoi's of its youth. Founding a school on the plan of the college by the State would not add to the pecuniary ability of the people to maintain their "township schools," HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 41 but would not such a school become a center of learning whence the young men of the State, fnlly equipped for the work, would go forth to take their places in the school-houses of the land? And would not the State the more surely, in after years, reap the reward coming through the inlineiice of scholarly men in the walks of professional life? So reasoned the friends of higher education in Indiana in 1820. The men of Bloomington, it nmy well be surmised, were ripe for legislative actioji as soon as it could be had. !N^ot a few ot them had been drawn to the new town by the reserved town- sliip, and it is not strange that they met late in the fall of 1819 and selected one of their number to represent them at the ses- sion of the Legislature, which was to meet early in the follow- ing December, to press upon tlie attention of the members the necessity of legislation in that behalf. Dr. David H. Maxwell was chosen for that service, and they could not have chosen a l)etter man. As a delegate fi'om Jetferson County he sat in the convention of 181(3, and had therefore some legislative ex- perience. ITe had a talent for politics, whence came an exten- sive accpiaintance with the i»ul)lic men of the State. lie was ])lausibh', conciliatory, level-headed, and a good judge of human nature. That rare accomplishment of seeming to follow, while actually leading, he possessed \u a high degree; and, above all, he was through and through a friend to higher education. This was the lirst service he was called upon to render an institu- tion to the furthering of whose interests, he was ever after de- voted. For thirty years, of all men outside the circle of those eno-ao-ed as teachers, he o-ave the most of his time in its service ^ ~ and to better purpose. It is not too much to say that during all that time the institution as Seminary, C\)llege and Univer- sity (for he was with it from the ince[»tion of the first until it had })assed into the last), was the center of his best thoughts, the object of his highest aims. Dr. ■Maxwell was an ambitious nnin; ambitious for place and power in the political world, but he seemed to have subordinated his highest ambitions to the welfare of his chei'ished institution. Is not such devotion worthy of remembrance? Is there not something worthy of high commendation in all this? I doulit if in all his work for Seminary, College and LTniversity he ever thought of self. His efforts were unselfishl}^ directed. Let history do justice to his 42 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. name. So nnreniitting was he in his hibors and to such good pnr})ose were thev directed thatit can be said of him, as of no other, he was tlie father of tlie Indiana rniversity.''- Notwithstanding the legislative mind was favorable to the organization of a State school, there was wide difference of opin- ion when it came to the details of the plan, and to snch an ex- tent was this carried that when the l)ill went to the Senate it was saved liy the casting vote of the Lieutenant Governor, Ratlitf Boon. On the 20th of January, 1820, by the signature of Jonathan Jennings, the first Governo]- of tlie State, it he- came a law, and the State Seminary fur the State of In- diana was duly chartered. Six citizens of the State, Charles Dewey, Jonathan Lindley, David II. Maxwell, John Al. Jenkins, Jonathan Nichols and William LoAve, were named as Trustees, and empowered to select a site for a Seminary, to provide for the sale of not exceeding (540 acres of the reserved land, and as soon as they thought it expedient to erect a '' suitable buildino- for a State Seminary, an,d also :i suitable ami commodious house for a pi'ofessor." On the first Monday in June four of the six Trustees met in Bloomington,in obedience to the law foi- the [)urpose of select- ing a site for the Seminary, but on account of the absence of Dewey and Lindley, they adjoui-ned over to a dav in July, which the record does not name. On that unnamed day five members met and jti-oeeeded to choose a Seminarv site "about a (juarter of a mile due south from l^loomington, on a beauti- ful eminence, and convenien.t to an excellent s})ring of water, the only one on the section selected that could with conven- ience answer the jiurposesof a Seminai'v." Over twenty months i)assed away before the work of building was actu.ally begun. Everytliing Avas in the giecn, :nid while a round-log cabin, oi- even a hcAved-log one, could be run uji in a marvelously short time by the [)ioneers of 1820, the erection of" a brick Seminary, or even a brick house for a professor,- thev found to be quite another thing. The two buildings Avere be- gun, however, and ultimately conii)le[e(l. The i)r()fessor"s house was ei-ected in the southwest corner of the campus, at a cost of S8!>1.

It fronted to the east, had a elia[)el and two reeitation rooms l)el()\v, and an e([ual number of rooms above. It eost $2,400, and must luive been substan- tially built, for it stood for nearly half a century, being used the greater part of the time for the preparatory school, and being endeared to the memory of thousands of students wlio pursued their grammar studies therein. In 18 — it was pulled down to nnike room for a more pi'etentions edilice. By the fall of 1823 the seminary was so near conii>letion that it was thought advisable to elect a }>rofessor and take such other steps looking to the beginning of educational work as should be deemed pro])i'r. Accordingly, on the 20th of No- vember, the Rev. Baynard R. Hall, a native of I'enn.sylvania, but for nearly or (piite a year living vvitli friends on White river. m)t far from (Tosj»ort, was chosen at a fr^alary of two liun- dred and fifty dollars per year. Two terms a year were pro- vided for of live months eaidi, and the tuition fees were iixed at five (h)l!ars per term, but at the end of a year vrere raised to ten. The choice could hardly have fallen upon a worthier man. His academic eiUication he had received at Union College and his theological at Princeton. He was an excellent classical schohir and a persuasive and sometimes ekxpient [U'eacher. As a teacher he was enthusiastic, faithful and painstaking. Into the frontier life of the White River settlement, in which his lot was cast for a time after he tirst came to the State, he entered with a zeal that soon brought him to know all its pe- culiarities, a knowledge that stood him many a good turn while at the head of the State seminary. He became a skilled marks- man with the ritie, he leai'iicd the art of rolling logs, he took lessons in manners practiced at wood-chopping and (piilting frolics, he was an interested looker-on at pioneer camp- meetings, he clei'ked in a t-ountry store, gi'ound bark in a tan- nery, preached some, and was, he himself says, '•'the very tirst man since the creation of the world that read Greek in the new j)urchase.'" On tlie first of May, 1824, the semimii'v doors were opened for the reception of students, and ten boys were admitted. These, tlie tirst to drink at the fountain of learning opened by the l)ounty of the State, were Findlay Dodds, James F. Dodds, Aaron Furu;:ason, Hamilton Stockwell, John Todd, Michael 44 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. Iluininer, Samuel C Dunn, Jauies W, Dunn, James A. Max- well and Jose[)h A. AVriglit. All these lived to nmnhood and rendered efficient service to society, one as a tanner, one as a uierchant, three as i)hysicians, two as ministers of the gospel and three as lawyers, and the lattei-, Jose])!! A. Wright, attain- ing to the honorable position of GoN'ernor of Indiana, and suh- se(|uently to that serving his t-ountry in a diplomatic position in a foreign land. To the readei" of to-day the attiMidance at the beginning must seem small, and so of the attendance ail through the seminary period. The first year the highest numl)er was tliirteeu ; the second, fifteen, and the third, twenty-one. This was indeed a- slow growth, but we need not go fai" to find the cause. AVliile the po])ulati()ii of the State had increased rajiidly, having mounted up to a iialf million in 1oai'd of "^rrustees made an oi'der reijuiring "English Gramnuir, Logic, lihetoric.

Maxwell, in a report iiuule to the (lenei-al Assend)ly, for say- ing that "during the first three years the (ii-eek and Latin languages alone ^\■ere tau^'ht."" Those were the days when ev- erything was sul)ordinated to the study of tlu' elassies. Every ])ei*son nudving any pretence to learning could on oci-asion (juote Latin. Most literary efforts abounded in classical allu- sions. The statesmen of the period interlarded their Gongres- sioual speeches with (piotations from the Jjatin authors, and so did the Governors of Indiana, in their annual messages to the HISTORY OP INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 45 k'o;islators of tlu' State. Tlu' law hooks of tlie time are copi- ous in Latin, and editors of newspapers even did not disdain now and then to instruct their readers by a sentence from a dead hmguage woven into their more stately editorials. Baynard R. Hall was a classicist. He made no pretence to scholarship in any other line. During the sennnary period, the year is not known, the students, with the aid of their professor, organized a literary society, for whicli he compounded a name, the Heno- ilcIplu'sfen'aiK He prescribed certain rules for its government, one of which was that every person on becoming a member must drop his every day name and choose a Greek or Koman cognomen, by which he was ever after to be known while within the Henodelphisterian hall. Accordingly, every mem- ])er of the society was an Ajax, a Pericles, a Timoleon, and so on. As the end of the tliird year ai)proaclied, it became evident that additional teaching force must be brought in. The older boys were wanting something else l)esides Greek and Latin, and moreover the twenty-one students of the third year prom- ised to be thirty or forty the fourth, and so it was determined to elect an additional professor, one who could teach the Math- ematics, pure and applied, and such of the natural sciences as in that day were deemed of sufficient importance to engage the attention of aspiring youth. Accordingly, on the 10th of May, 1827, John M. Harney, a recent graduate from the Miami Uni- versity, was elected to the new professorship at a salary of two hundred and fifty dollars per year, and at once entered upon his duties. The wdsdom of the act was soon made manifest. The Sem- inary not only held its old students, but gained others. Dur- ing the spring and summer term the number in attendance was twenty-six, but on the opening of the fall term " about forty students were present," and the number increased at such a rate that Dr. Maxwell was enabled to write in January, " there is a probability there will be fifty or sixty students in attend- ance before the close of the year." The curriculum of studies in the Indiana Seminary was little, if any, less extensive, than in any of the western colleges of the day. Hall was a skillful teacher of the languages, while Har- ney had a genius for Mathematics. ISTo records remain of classes; no records even of the names of students in attend- 46 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. ance, l)iit tlic fvw old men vot living who were stiideiUs during Seminary times, all speak in glowing terms of the activity of the professors and the application of the students. Early in the month of JSTovember, 1827, a Board of live vis- itors, of whom James B. Ray, the Governor of the State, was one, and James Scott, a Judge of the Supi'euie Court, was an- other, met in Bloomington. This Board had }>ower to person- ally inspect the " studies and progress " of each student, and the work seems to have been thoroughly done. " Every scholar was critically examined in the different branches of education in Avhich he had been engaged," and while the report does not in so many words say it, yet it is apparent that the professors were as "critically examined" as were the students, but in a d liferent way. But professors, as well as students, stood the test. " The manner in which both teachers and scholars ac- quitted themselves " won their highest praise. ' " There was Init one opinion among the visitors — that more ability to teach was exhibited b}- the professors and apparent proficiency by the scholars than ever before witnessed on a similar occasion." AVhat more couhl have been said? This Board examined into other things l)esides the ability ot the professors to teach and the proficienc}' of students, one of which was the salaries paid to the professors, and they wisely came to the conclusion that a salary of two hundred and fifty dollars per year was not enough, and so they said to the Boai-d of Trustees, Avhich v.as in session at the same time, whcrcu])on that Board raised the salary of each to four hundred dollars. The Board of Visitors, through their President, Judge Scott, made their re[)ort to the next General Assembly, which met in the following December, Governor Ray made his report in his annual message, and Dr. Maxwell, the Pi'esident of the Board of Trustees, and member of the House of Representatives, made his report, and all the reports concurred in i-ecommend- ing that the Indiana Semimuw be raised to the dignity of a college. Early in the session a bill was introduced having that end in view, wliich was finally passed and signed by the Governor; aiui thus, by legislative enactment, on the 24th day of January, 1827, seven years and four days after the Indiana State Sem- inary had been chartered, it was mero'cd into Indiana Collesre. HISTORY OF THE COLLEGIATE DEPARTMENT OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. INDIANA COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY UNDER DR. ANDREW WYLIE S ADMINISTRATION. Indiana College was, as already stated, established b}' an act of the Legislature, passed January 24, 1828. .It was enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, "That there shall be, and hereby is, created and established a college adja- cent to the town of Blooniington, in the connty of Monroe, for the education of youth in the American* learned and foreign languages, the useful arts and sciences, and literature, to be known by the name and style of the Indiana College, and to be governed and regulated as hereinafter directed." To carry into effect tliis ordinance, a Board of Trustees and a Board of Visitors were appointed. Among tlie iirst acts of this Board, at its meeting in Blooniington, May, 1828, was the election of a President and two professoi'S for the college. Andrew Wylie, 1). 13., Pi'esident of Washington (College, Pa., was chosen Pres- ile QX^ry nioi-ning for ]»rayers, shoi'tl}' after daylu'eak, and to re- ceive such intimations concerning their duty as the l*resident uiiglit deem necessary. "• The strictest attention is expected of the students to the rules of moi-ality and good manners, as well as to the performance of their stated college duties. As to mat- ters of religion, })articularly the manner in which students en- trusted to their care should spend the Sabbath, the Faculty are guided in every case by the will of the parent or guardian. A decent respect, however, to the sentiments and practices of the religious world is, in all cases, expected and required. It is the special care of the Faculty to inculcate, l)y prece]»t and exam[>le, the i»ure principles of Christianity, free from the narro\v views of sectarianism and perversions of fanaticism, and so to train the minds of their ]»upils that they may cherish enlightened ]>iety and benevolence toward men." In 188G the seventh ccunmeiu'cment exercises were held in the new college building. This edifice was not remarkable for ar- chitectural beauty. It resembled somewhat, in its outward appearance, an old-fashioned Xew England cotton mill. HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 49 For about three years all things connected with the college \\ent on harmoniously, but some trouble arising in the Faculty and among the students, the cause and nature of which it is unnecessary to inquire into, resulted in the diminution of the number of students, and the resignation of Profet^sors Hall and Harney. This took i>lace in 1832. The vacancies thus created were supplied by the election of Ebenezer 'N. Elliott, a grad- uate of Miami University, as Professor of ISTatural Philosophy and Chemistry, and of Beaumont Parks, a graduate of Dart- mouth College, as Professor of Languages. James D. Maxwell, a graduate of Indiana College, succeeded AV^. H. Stockwell tis l>rincipa] of the Pre})aratory Department. After the resigna- tion of Mr. Maxwell, Joseph G. McPheeters, assisted by M. M. Campbell, took his place in the Pi'eparatory Department. In 1835 Professor Elliott received an invitation to the Pres- idency of Mississippi College. This he accepted, taking with him Mr. Maxwell, the Princi])al of the Preparatory Depart- ment, and Mr. David M. Elliott, a late graduate. At the next meeting of the Board, the vacancies thus caused were tilled by the appointment of James F. Dodds, a graduate of Indiana College, as l*rofessor of Mathematics ; Augustus W. liuter, a graduate of Allegheny C^ollege, Pa., Professor of Greek and French ; T. A. AVylie, a gi-aduate of the University of Pa., L'rofessor of N^atural Philoso])hy and Chemistry, and William R. Harding, a graduate of Trinity College, Duldin, Irelaiul, T*rin- cipal of the Preparatory Department, Prof. Harding died after a little more than a year's service in the college. Many of the students who attended the college in these early days were young men l)rought up on farms, and used to hard work. They came to Bloomington, generally on their own re- sources, depending on money they had earned or borrowed. It was not unusual for students to attend to theii* studies for a year and then absent themselves for the same length of time in or- der to earn money by teaching, or otherwise, and returning, would comjilete their college course. Out of this kind of ma- terial Inive many of the graduates, and some who were not graduates, been made, who have done honor to their alma mater and their country.

In this tliickly wooded eonntrv fuel was cheap. Fields cUnired of tlieir timber were what the farmer desired, and lienee tire-wood cost only tiie labor to [)re}»are it, and to de- liver it to the consnmer. Magnificent tnli]i-])0|)lar trees, many of them from fonr to six feet in diameter, and I'ising to the height of sixty t<> eighty feet before branching, were obtained for tlie agricnltnrist. The wages of a laboring nnni were low; from thirty-seven and a half to tifty cents a day was considered a fair price. [n an old record l)ook it was stated that Joseph A. Wright was allowed for ringing the bell, nuiking tire, etc., during the last session in 1828 (the sessions were then ti\c months long), $16.25. We tind also that Joseph A. Wright could do a higher class of work than that. In the same record it is stated that he was allowed one dollar for repairing the to[) of one of the chimneys. Tliis same Joseph A. Wright was in 1850 a mu(di esteemed and highly popular Governoi' of Indiana, and after- uai'ds was United vStates Minister at Berlin. Li\'ing in these early times was not expensive. Boarding- could l)e obtained in 1880 for from $1.00 to $1.25 a week; in 18:>7 from §1.50 to $2.00 a week; these prices included fuel. As late as 1852 the }UMce of l)oarding in private families was from $1.25 to $1.75 a week. This will not appear strange if we notice the prices of provisions in these early days before the railroad had I'eached the town. IJeef could bt' bought for from two to four cents a pound; }iork as clieap or chea})er ; butter seldom nu)re than ten cents a pound ; chickens cost from sev- en ty-tive to eighty cents a d<^zen ; eggs two or three cents a dozen; twenty-tive cents would buy a three-gallon bucketful of eggs : turkeys cost twenty-five cents apiece; \'enison liams the same price, and Hour and meal cheap in ju'oportion. Stu- dents who j)referred to board themselves, or to batch, as they called it, could live well on seventy-tive cents a week. All im- ported delicacies, such as store sugar, so called to distinguish it from nuiple sugar, and store tea, to distinguish it tVom sassatras, sometinu's called "grub hyson," were comparatively high [)riced. These articles had to be brought from " the River," i. e., the Ohio, in wagons, and it took from seven to ten days to make the fnp.

This building was given, rent free, to a [)erson Avho engaged to furnish Vx^arding and lodging at a lower price than was asked in the town. The plan, however, did not work w<'Il. A boarding clul) was then formed. The students in the club catered for themselves, and employed all necessary lielp. Tlie general su[)ervision of the club was entrusted to Professor M. M. ('am})l)ell. lender his manag'ement the plan succeeded very well. It was, however, in a few years discontinued. Bloomington, for many years of its early history, was an iso- lated place. It was about fifty miles from Terre Haute, the same distance from Indianapolis, forty miles from Columbus, the then terminus of tlie ]Madison & Indianapolis Railroad, and nciirly a hundred miles from New Albany. Tliere was, in these times, not even a turnpike road leading to it. It some- times happened, in the l»eginning of winter, that the clay roads U'jsding to it were rendered impassable by tlie rain and frost, and sometimes for two weeks there would be no cominunicati(~)n l)etween Bloomington, and we might say, the outside world. Tlie tri-weekJy Louisville and Indianapolis mail, established by Messrs. John and Samuel Orchard, would be sto})i)ed for tliat kuigth of time. We find, in some of the old catalogues of the Fniversity, special dii'ections given to the students from tlie South as to the l)est way to reach lUoomington. They might hind at Leavenworth, and taking the stage there for Paoli, and thence l)v Orchard's stajj'e line, reach Bloommo'ton in three days ; or landing at Louisville, anct taking the stage there could get to the end of their journey in two days. When the rail- road from Madison to Columbus was finished, landing at Mad- ison they could reach (\)luml)us by rail, and if they did not happen to meet the tri-weekly stage to Bloomington, they couhl hire a private conveyance that would take them to the end of their jcnirney. Wlien the New Albany & Salem Railroad was finished, it was announced that students from the South could take the railroad from New Albany to Salem, and thence to Bloomington it was only twelve hours. On the completion of the railroad to and through Bloomington to Michigan City, in 1855, there Avas comparatively easy access to the University from all quarters. 52 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY.

By this act of the Legislature the college ceased to exist, and all its i)roperty, rights and prix'ilcgcs were tnriu'(l over to the Pniversity.

A vacancy in the Poard of tlie University occurred dui'ing its lirst session, and the individual in question as|)ired to the situation. Im- nu'diately before the Hoard went into the election it was plainly intimated to them that the as[»ii-ant to the vacancy pledged himself to bury in oblivion all animosities if elected; but if re- jected then the Institution and the President might U)ok to themselves and must suffer the consequences. " Tlie P)oard rejected this threatening candidate. lie, however, ke])t his word. N^ot satisfied to create and foment jealousies and jarrings at home and not content to sow in the minds of tlie Students the seeds of disaffection to tlieii- instructors and to villifythe Pi'esident by injurious epithets and unfounded insin- uations, he proceeded in a more tangible way and official form to ])rosecnte his attacd^s.*' At the next meeting of the Legislature lie preseii'ted a ])e- tition in whi(;h formal charges were preferred against T)r. Wylie. The Legislature, after some discussion, referred the ma.tter l)ack to the Poard of Trustees for decision. In April, 1839, a special meeting of the Board was called; thei'c were eleven mem})ers present; the Board coutinned a week in session; the I*rosecu- tor was called to bring forward his charges, with their specifi- cations. '' The examination," in the words of the address " was conducted according to tlie forms and regulations of criminal prosecutions.

It Avas at the close of this investigation that the proseentoi- with nineh eloquence and feeling said, "Gentle- men, it would seem as things now stand, that the prosecntor has become the defendant and the defendant the prosecutor." This peroration was received with an audible smile by the Board. '•The testimony adduced during the investigation" — the ad- di'css goes on to say — "was of so decided a character tiiat no impartial Jury in the State of Indiana (it may be contidently asserted) would have left the jury box without returning a ver- dict of aiMjuittal." The l)oard exju-essed tlieir opinion of tlie result in the fol- lowing resolutions : " Hcsolr/'d, Tbat the lioard of Trustees have patiently* inves- tigated the charges against Dr. Wylie, President of the Uni- versity, of rnal-administration, and having heard for several days the prosecutoi" and tlie A-oluminous testimony introduced by him, as well as the testimony of Dr. Wylie, come unani- mously to the following'conclusion, to-wit : That the four charges and their s])ecitications : 1st, of dujtlicity ; 2d, of neg- lecting or refusing to ol)ey the requirements of the By-Laws; 8(1, of ai"l)itrary and ungentlemauly conduct; and, 4th, of mis- rejiresentation and falsehood, are wholly unsul)st:antiated by proof, and, in the opinion of the Board, untrue." " Al.'^o, re-'^olred. That althougli the Board have declined to in- vestigate, officially, the ten charges and specifications of nnil- administration of the college, believing that they have no authority to re\'ei'se or modify any of the proceedings of the College Boai'd, yet, from individual exiiminations of the col- lege records, it does appear that the gravest charges against l^resident Wylie, and particularly in regard to the purchase of books, etc., have been fully investigated by the Board, and the I'lvsident's conduct not only ap})roved of, but a Note oF thanks to him recoi'ded for his faithful ageui-y in the atfair."

HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 55 The Faculty in 1839 was reduced to tliree, the President and two professors, and in 1840 the numher of students was 04.* The deficiency was sripplied hy tlic election of Lieut. Jjscob Ammen, a graduate of West Point, who, on account of his excellency as a mathenuitician and draughtsman, had been ap- ])ointed Assistant Professor in the department of Professor Da vies, the Professor of Mathematics and Engineering. Dur- ing the short stay of Professor Ammen in the University, in addition to the duties of his special department, he organized a military company, whicli drilled in the afternoon, wlicu the weather permitted. Arms were furnished by the Government, and an armory iitted up for their reception. After the resig- nation of Professor Ammen the department continued for some time, but for want of a proper leader it was soon discontinued. The other vacancy in the Faculty, the Professorship of Lan- guages, was supplied at the same time by the election of John 1. Morrison, a graduate of Miami LTniversity, and at that time Principal of the Salem Seminar}-, and well-known as an excel- lent teacher and scholar. At the close of the year 1838 the Professor of Natural Philosophy and Chemistry laid before the Board a paper pre- senting the wants of the department. In the existing build- ings there were no conveniences for experimental illustration. The Board promptly replied to the suggestions, and arrange- ments Avere made for the erection of a suitable building. This building was ready for occupation a little over a year after the application had been made to the Board. The number of students had increased from 64, in 1840, to 115 in 1843. In 1843, June 5th, Professor Ammen resigned, and on September 25th of the same year Professor Morrison Mr. Henry Tanner, a graduate of the class of 1842, was selected '■'We .should not despi.=e the day of sraaU beginnings.

This position Mr. Tanner filled with credit to himself, and to the entire satisfaction of the Board of Tnistees. On the resignation of Professor Morrison, Professor Daniel Read, of Ohio University, was unanimonsly elected to fill the vacancy. On the following day Professor Alfred Ryors, of the same institntion, was elected Professor of Mathematics and Civil Engineering. All things in the management of the college affairs went on smootldy for several years thereafter. The niend)ers of the Facnlty acted harmoni(^usly, and the nnnd)cr of the stndeiits ii'radnallv inci-eased. In 1842 a lonff-continncd effort on th<' part of the Board of Trnstees to establish a law school as a department of the institution was finally crowned with success by the election of Judge David McDonald Professor of Law, and his acceptance of the position. Thence, and foi- many years, the law school continued to increase the number of stu- dents in attendance upon tlie institution.* We now revert to the closing yeai's of President Wylie's ad- ministr.ition. Dr. Kyoi-s, the Professor of Mathematics and Engineering, received an invitation- from Ohio Pnivcrsity to I'eturn as its President. This invitation Professor Ryors accepted. The Faculty and the Board expressed their estimation of the Pro- fessor b}' conferring upon him the degree of Doctor of Divinity. On the resignation of Dr. R^yoi's, J'rofessor M(;Oartney, of Easton, Pennsylvania, was elected in his place. Professor Mc- (Sirtney did not accept. Charles Marshall, a young man edu- cated at the University of Virginia, received a pro tern, appoint- ment. Mr. Marshall came highly recommended by Professor Courtenay, of the Mathematical Department of the University of Virginia, and formerly Profess(n' of Engineering and Phys- ics in the Military Academy, AVest l*oint, and Dr. William H. McGuffey, formerly of Ohio University, then of University of \'irginia. In the minutes of the Board, in 1850, there is a notice to this effect: "That the Board, as yet, had not been able to judge of the propriety of confirming the pro tempore appointment of Professor Marshall, as tliere was but a bare quorum present," It is well remembered by the writer that Tor a particular notice of the law school sec further on, at the close of the history of the Col. Dept. of the University. HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 57 when Professor Marshall appeared in Blooiiiington one at least of the Professors was by no means pleased with his youthful appearance. He was then not quite twenty years old, and not large for his age. This displeased professor thought that so young a person in the Faculty and among students, many of them several years older than himself, would not do. But the youthful professor soon showed himself equal to the occasion. Pi<|ued, perhaps, at the cool reception, he tendered his resigna- tion October 3, 1850. This resignation was accepted, and Professor Larabee, of Greencastle, was elected Profc'ssor of Mathematics, and a resolution* highly commendatory of Pro- fessor Marshall passed by the Board, The Board was soon after informed that Professor Larabee could not immediately accept, and asked the delay of a year. Professor Marshall was then earnestly requested to remain another year at least. This he consented to do. The year 1850 opened auspiciously. There were in attend- ance about a hundred and sixty students in all the departments at the commencement of the college year September 22, 1850, About the first of ]N'ovember, Dr. Wylie had been taking his accustomed exercise with his axe in the woods, nearly a mile away from his dwelling, when he accidentally cut his foot. Un- able to help himself, after bleeding and suffering for some time, some person passing in a carriage found him and took him home. The wound was properly attended to, and in a day or two he procured crutches, and contrary to the remonstrances of family and friends, he went to the college and attended to his classes. On Friday, he delivered, according to appointment, a lecture to the Agricultural Society of tlie town. He remained in the college till the time for the lecture in the afternoon. After the lecture he was quite exhausted ; he expressed his thankfulness tluit he would now have two days rest. On Sun- day evening symptoms of pneumonia appeared and on Tuesday morning following he breathed his last.f The formal an- nouncement was made by I)r.

This resolution was unanimously passed. t See fuller account in the sketch of Dr. Wylie. 58 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. large concourse of friends and citizens followed the bodj- to the grave. On tlie day after the funeral of the President, Dr. Read addressed the students assembled in the chapel and an- nounced the arrangements made for carrying on the work of the University. The classes of the President were taken by l^i'ofessor Kead, in addition to work in his own department. The Freshman class was taken l)y Professor Wylic in classical studies, in addition to his ordinary work. All the Professors heartily cooperated in this division of labor, calling for no out- side help, in order that the bereaved family of the President, if the Board should so order it, might receive the salary for the collegiate year, which had just commenced at the time of his death. REORGANIZATION OF THE BOARD OV TRUSTEES BY THE LEGISLATURE, AND PRESIDENCY OF DR. RYORS. In accordance with an act to reorganize the Board of Trus- tees of Indiana University, defining their powers and their du- ties, and providing for the election of a President and other officers, and pointing out their powers and duties, approved February 16, 1852, the following persons were present and in- ,stalled in office as Trustees of the University l)y the President of the former Board, as required by law, viz. : John I, Mor- rison, George Evans, Michael Malott, Patrick J. R. Mupphy, Thomas M. Adams, iJ^athaniel Browning, Johnston McCul- lough and Joseph G. McPheeters. Joseph G. McPheeters was cliosen President. The Board then elected Dr. James D. Max- well, Secretary of the Board, and Joseph M. Howe, Treasurer of the University. Among the first acts of this Board, at its first meeting in April, 1852, was to pass unanimously the reso- lutions expressing their high appreciation of the late President, and their regret at the loss the University had snstained, and their sympathy for the bereaved family. In the Faculty report made at this meeting of the Board, several suggestions were made with regard to the condition of tlie University and its future prospects, presenting those meas- ui'cs and improvements to which public opinion most plainly points, and which, if adopted, will most fully meet the demand and wishes of the friends of education in Indiana, and most certainly commend the University to the favor and fostering care of the Legislature. HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 59 At tills meeting of the Board, April lOtli, 1852, John H. I^athro]), LL. 1)., Chancellor of Wisconsin University, was unanimously elected President to till the vac-incy caused l)y Ih'. Wylie's deiith. At the June nieeting of the Boar;}, a letter was read froin Dr. Lathrop, declining the acceptance of the po- sition. /Vt the close of the April meeting of the Board, Professor Wylie was made Superintendent of the University buildings and adjacent grounds, and the Faculty was requested to make him also their Chairman and acting President of the Univer- sity till tlie President elect shall enter upon the duties of his office. At the request of the acting President, Judge Mc- Donald delivered the Baccalaureate at the July Commence- ment. He took as his subject the " True Man," and made its ap])lication in the close to the late President. The Board, after receiving the declination of Dr. Lathrop, elected Henry Barnard, LL. D., of Connecticut, President, and on the contingency of his not accepting, Rev. Dr. Alfred R3'ors, President of Ohio University, was elected to take the place.* Before referring to the recommendations of the Faculty with regard to the improvements to be made in the college curricu- lum, the committee of the Board state that they can not avoid an expression of their gratification at the prompt, faithful and judicious manner in which the Faculty acted in the painful emergencies in which they were severally placed by the decease of the President, and for the onerous labors which they cheer- fully assumed without any extra charge to the University; the Board owe the expression of their approbation in strong and decided terms. The labors, particularly, of Professor Eead, in attending to the whole studies of the Senior and Junior classes in the President's department, and of Professor Wylie in hear- ing the recitations of the Freshman class iu> Latin and Greek, (in addition to the duties of their own departments) ought not to be passed over without notice and approval. That in keep- ing up the recitations and all the public exercises of the Uni- versity', the conduct of the Faculty is a valuable precedent in future contingencies which may arise, and in the opinion of the committee, merits the notice and commendation of the Board of Trustees. ■'It is stated in tlie Annual Rsport, 1851-2, that a letter was received from Mr. Barnard, not long before the close of the term, in which he says that he was completely incapacitated for all bodily or mental labor by being thrown out of a carriage, and that there was no pros- pect of his being able to act or even to think for some time to come, and that he must there- fore in justice to himself and the University, decline the appointment. 60 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 'J'luj coniiiiittcf, also, in accordaiK-e with llic t>uggL'stioii8 of the Fuculty, rccomint'nded each of the following measures as calcuhited to rcndei" tlic I'niversity more useful l)ish and ashes. Thongh all connected with the University were distressed by this catastrophe, they were not dislieartened or discouraged. When the question was proposed, " AVhat shall we do ?" the unanimous answer from Trustees, Faculty, students and citizens was "Rebuild, and put the University in a better condition than it ever was before." We iind in an ex- cellent address* delivered to the Philomathean Society by Dr. Reed, August 5, 1856, about two years after the iire, reference made to the conduct of the students on that occasion.. The professor referred to that esprit de corps, that community of feeling, without which no body of men can be effective — as the very life of our colleges, the element of their success. He goes on to say: " AVhen that old college building, un- comely in aspect thougli it may have been, but around which clustered so many sacred associations ; when your society halls, adorned with so much taste from the savings of your pocket money; when your society libraries, collected with so much pains ; when the college library, were all lying in the ashes — not a book saved ; when dismay sat upon the countenances of all good citizens in that dark hour, some of you of this Senior class and of the two preceding ones, met with a little band of other students and sent forth to your fellow-students, then scat- tered in ditferent parts of tlie State, the rallying call, and soon the response came back from Lafayette, from Terre Haute, from Evansville, from iSTew Albany: 'We will to the last stand by our cherished alma mater.' " This first gave the assurance ot hope that all was not lost. '•'See also the eloquent reference to this catastrophe in the close of Dr. Daily's inaugural address. 66 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. Here follows an extract from the appeal which this noble band of yonn^ men sent forth to their fellow-students. It is dated April 12, 1854, shortly after the tire: '^ At a nieetiiiii' of tlu- students remaining- in TUooniington during the present vacation, a committee was appointed to ad- dress yon in relation to the great calamity which has befallen our beloved alma mater. "The main University edilice, with the chapel, where w^e have so often met, and our beantiful society halls nnd onr libra- ries, are a smouldering mass of ruins. "It is with sad hearts that we turn onr eyes to the blackened walls, where clusters so many pleasant recollections of the past. You will, with us, be deeply atHicted by the tidings of this, our common misfortune. " But the question arises. What shall we do as students ? ^Ve are directed by the unanimous voice of those at this meet- ing to say to you, it is our resolution to remain as students of Indiana University. We will never desert her in this, her hour of trial."' Again, with a prophecy which has proved reality, they say: " We have no doubt this calamity will be made the beginning of a greater prosperity than ever to the Indiana University. "Let us, fellow-students, not be wanting; we can nowhere have better advantages. Let us be present and partake in the energy and spirit which this event awakens, ('ome, and bi'ing with you as many others as possible," We nuiy safely say had there not been this es2:>rit (h corps of the students, Ti'ustecs, Faculty and citizens, the days of the University of Indiana would have been numbered. By the Vincennes suit the University had lost nearly ^70,000. The State had not yet assumed this loss; its main college building had been buiMit, and the land grant made. in February 23, 1854, was not yet availal)le, and we believe was very far from cover- ing the loss sustained. These calamities almost simultaneously crowding upon the University were enough to discourage and destroy all hopes of resuscitation. But the Trustees, at their meeting not long after the fire (April 27, 1854), showed that they were neither discouraged or disheartened. Among their first acts was that there should be a Building Committee to superintend the reconstruction of the main college edifice, to consist : First, a part of the Board, of Messrs. John I. Mor- HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 67 risoii, Thomas M. Adams, Johnson MeCullough ; secondly, of the Faculty, of President Daily, Professors Pead and Milligan, and of the citizens, John Ort'luird. EesoU-ed, farther, As soon :;s the plan of tlie building is determined upon, and the citizens of Bh)omington and others have made a subscription of ten thousand (h)liars, and tench'red the same to tlie ])(>ard tiirongli their committee, the Buihling Ccmimittee shall immediately make contracts for building, and shall select a competent super- intendent. The cost of the new building was not to exceed eighteen thousand dollars ; the President of the Board was to find a competent architect, which he did; the services of Mr. W. Tinsley were secured for this purpose, and his proposed plan and elevation adopted. At the meeting of the Board on April 27, 1854, a committee was appointed to prepare a scheme of scholarships. This com- mittee, consisting of Messrs. Jenckes, McPheeters and Malott, made their report. The scholarships were so arranged that those paying one hundred dollars were entitled to a perpetual scholarship in the Preparatory and Academical Departments ; those paying fifty dollars had in the same departments a schol- arship for four years, and those paying twenty-five dollars a scholarship for two years. The subscriptions that had been made by the citizens, or should hereafter be made, were made convertible into scholarshi})s. Money was borrowed and prop- erty mortgaged, and the building, considering time and place, was completed within a reasonable time. It was expected to hold the Commencement August, 1855, in the new building, but by sonie delay tlie}^ were disappointed. The first Com- mencement in it took place August 6, 1856, and the whole building finished was formally dedicated November 30, 1856, hy President Daily. Dnrine- the first two or three vears of the Presidencv of Dr. Daily there were many changes in the Faculty. The College, however, flourished, increasing in numbers and popularity. The President was indefatigable in his ettbrts to rebuild and maintain the standing of the Universitv. Professor Milligan resigned July, 1854, on account of sick- ness in his family, much to the regret of his associates in the Faculty and the citizens generally. General Ammen, at that time Professor in Bacon College, Kentuck}^, was elected to suc- ceed Professor Milligan. Professor Ammen accepted, but re- 68 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. maiiicd only a short time and then returned to Georgetown, Kentucky. In 1854, Professor Elisha Ballantine, of Oliio Uni- versity, \vas elected Professor of Mathematics, and on April 28, his letter of acceptance was received by the Board. Professor Ballantine succeeded Professor Milligan, who had been trans- ferred from the chair of Mathematics to the chair of Natural Philosophy, on the resignation of Professor Wylie. At a called meeting of the Board April, 1855, Professor Wylie, then Pro- fessor in Miami University, was recalled to his former position, vacated l)y the resignation of Professor Ammen. The valuable donation of books made by Mr. Henry W. Derby, a well- known bookseller and puldisher of Cincinnati, by which the loss of the small but vahial)le library, lately destroyed l)y tire, was almost replaced, is worthy of grateful mention. T*resident Daily received from him tlie following letter: " September 25, 1855. '■'■Rev. Wtn. M. Dailij, J). D., Prcs'alcnt of Indiana UnircrslUj.

In aid of repair- ing a loss so serious to an institution of learning, I beg you to select from our general catalogue of books to the amount of fifteen hundred dollars, which are hereby placed to 3"our order. "Respectfully, your obedient servant, -II. W. Derby." The Faculty on receipt of this letter, passed the following resolution : " The thanks of the Faculty is hereby tendered to Mr. Derby for this generous and timely gift, the first of its kind made to the University since the great calamity in the destruc- tion of its library. It was also directed that when the new library should be fitted up, there should be a special alcove de- voted to its reception." The books were selected princi})ally by Drs. Daily and Read and all labeled, "The Derby Donation." A valuable donation of law-l)ooks, nuule by a citizen of Fort AVayne, A\". II. Jones, Esq., is also worthy of honorable men- tion. The exact nunibei' is not remend)c'i'ed, but it was not less HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 69 than two hundred. Many of them were folioB, some running back to the reign of Charles I, nearly all referring to old Eng- lish laws.* Dr. Read, Professor of Languages, presented his resignation December 4, 1855. During his connection with the University, his diplomacy and energy, particularly during the troubles arising from law-suits and the burning of the main building of the University, together with his excellence as a scholar and teacher, called forth from the Board a strong expression of re- gret and an earnest request from the Board that he would re- main at least another year in the University. Dr. Read con- sented to remain. Professor Butler, of Wabash College, who had been elected Dr. Read's successor, did not accept, and Pro- fessor Ballantine was transferred from the chair of Mathematics to that of Languages. At this juncture, the name of Professor Daniel Kirkwood, then President of Newark College, Delaware, was presented for the chair of Mathematics. He accepted and thus all vacancies were filled. Professor Kirkwood did not take his place as a member of the Faculty till the last day of October, 1856, the preceding part of the term being filled satisfactorily by the temporary appointment of the Rev. Henry W. Ballantine, now of Orange, jSTew Jersey. After the vacancies in the Faculty had been thus satisfacto- rily filled the number of students gradually increased, and all things went on harmoniously to the close /of Dr. Daily's Presidency. On account of some untoward circumstances, resulting in a trial in an ecclesiastical court, in which charges were brought against Dr. Daily, and a popular clamor excited, which he feared might be injurious to the University, he handed in his resignation, January 27, 1859, which was accepted, and the fol- lowing resolutions passed : " Besolved, In view of the constant and untiring services ren- dered by Dr. Daily to the University, out of the proper sphere of his ofiicial duty, and made necessary by the calamity to which it was subjected by the destruction of its l)uilding and library, and the eml)arrassments resulting therefrom, he be, and is hereby allowed the sum of seven hundred dollars in addition to his regular salary, in full of such services."

About a dozen of tlie students, who were much attached to liim, withdrew from the University, haviiiij- eallcd for honorable dismissals, which were granted. Indeed, nearly all the students were very much at- tached to the retii-ing rresident on the ground of his kindly disposition, and the interest he took in their welfare. It was widely circulated at tiiis time that the University was fast fall- ing into ruins, and soon there would be nothing of it left. J^otwithstanding these predictions and efforts, stimulated by repeated visits of the ex-President, his friends within and with- out the University did not succeed in accomplishing their object.

Dr. Lathrop took his seat as Presi- dent of the University September 20, 1859. At this time the turbulent spirit of the preceding year had disappeared, and a good spirit among the students generally prevailed. The Fac- ulty, with the exception of the President, Professor Blood and the tutors, remained the same as in the preceding year. Pro- fessor Henry Bascom Hibben, A. M., had, at the last meeting of the Board in 1859, been elected Professor of Logic, Rhetoric and Belles Lettres. He took his seat as member of the Faculty January 6, 1860. Messrs. Charles Campbell, A. B., John H. Wilson and James C. Elliott were tutors, and Professor E. Marquis, Instructor in German, French and Hebrew. Dr. Lathrop delivered his Baccalaureate July 6, 1860. A few days after, July 11, the inauguration of the President took place. Governor Willard, his friend and former pupil, delivered the address of investiture, and Dr. Lathrop his inaugural, and be- fore the adjournment of the Board, then in session. Dr. Lathrop resigned, having been connected with the college only one year. He accepted an invitation to a professorship in Missouri Uni- versity, of which he had been the first President, serving there from 1842 to 1849, and then leaving liecause his views on the slavery question, which then was becoming a prominent subject in the political field, did not harnK^nize with the popular sen- timent of that community.

The President-elect first met the Faculty, August 16, 1860, and arrangements were made for general college work during the next term. It was not till June 7, 1861, that his inauguration took place. Governor Oliver P. Morton making the address of investiture, and Dr. Nutt delivering his inaugural. Dr. Nutt entered upon his duties amid favorable circum- stances. In 1860 the number in the four regular classes (not counting the law students and Preparatory Department) was 99; in 1861, 112; in 1863, reaching the minimum, 67; then gradually rising till, in 1869, the number was 182. 72 IIISTOKV OF INDIANA rNIVKHSITV. In 1860 the Fac-ulty consisted of tlie following persons : Dr. Nutt, President: Profi'ssors Ballantine, Wylie, Kirkvvood, Woodburn; Judge Bryant, Professor of Law; H. B. llibljen, lately elected Professor of English Language and Literature, and Vj. .Mai'(iuis, ProfV'ssoi' of Modern Languages and Litera- ture. By a lau' a|i|»r()\H"d May 11, 18(11, the State Geologist, while h(! holds his office, was made a member of the Faculty of the Univei'sity, and was dii-ected to collect duplicate specimens of minei'ah)gy and geology in his reconnoissances of the State, iind de})Osit one set of the sanu^ in the cabinet of the State University. Professor Richard Owen was the first to receive this honorary appointment, and T*rofessor E. T. Cox succeeded him as State Geologist and as a member of the Faculty. At the close of the year 1861 Professor H. B. Hibben re- signed his professorshi]) and entered the army as a Chaplai!!. In 1854 he was a[tpointt'd Chaplain in the Xavy by President Lincoln, which position he still (1887) holds. In 1868 (^)lonel Pichai-d (3wen, of Xew Harmony, then in the army, was elected to the (Uiair of Natural Philosophy and Chemistry. In tlie same year Pi'ofessoi" E, Ballantine resigned, having aircepted the position of I)e])artment Secretary of the American Jk^ard of Foi-eign Missions, and Professor M, M. Cam}»bell, formerly Adjunct Professor of Languages, was in- vited by the resident members of the Board to take the va- (nited place 7);-o tent. At the next meeting of the Board, Pro- fessor dames D. Butler, of Wisconsin Lniversity, was again iiivited to the vacant chair, lie, however, declined. The chair of Languages being thus vacated, Professor AVylie was trans- ferred to the same, and Professor Owen was made Professor of Physics and Chemistry. This arrangement continued till LS68. In 1866 Professor Kirkwood accepted tlie Pi-otessoi-shi}) of Mathematics and Astronomy in AVashiugton and Jeiferson Col- lege, Pensylvania, and Prof. Cyrus M. Dodd, then of Washing- ton and .lefierson College, was elected Professor of Mathematics in Lidiana I niversity. The next year Professor Kirkwood re- turned to Bloomington and resumed his former ])osition in the University, and Professor P)allantine returning about the same time, was elet-ted Professor of Greek Language and Literature, and Prof. C. M. Dodd (,»f the Latin Lauii'uage and Ijiterature. HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 7B The Department of Aiieient Laug-uages l)eing thus tilled, Pro- fessor Wylie was made Professor of ISTatiiral Phil<)so])hy, and Dr. Owen, Professor of Natnral Scienee and Chemistry. In 1867 a Professorship of English Literature- and the Theory and Praetiee of Teaehing was established, and in 1(S()8 tlie Tlon. Geo. W. Hoss, late SnjDerintendent of Puldic Insti-uction, was elected to that chair, and entered u[)ou his duties in the follow- ing year, 1869. In 1871 Professor IIoss accepted a position as President of the Kansas Normal School, in Em[)oria. In 1871 he was recalled to Indiana University, to the Professorship of English Literature and Elocution, which he occupied till 1880. Among the interesting events occurring during the admin- istration of Dr. Xutt were the etforts made l»y the President, and other friends of the University, to locate tlie Agricnltnral College in Bh:»omington, in connection with tlie Indiana Uni- versity. By an act of Congress, of July 2, 1862, public lands belong- ing to tlie United States were donated to the several States and Territories wliich may provide colleges for the benefit of agri- culture and the mechanic arts. This national grant was ac- cepted I)y Indiana, March 6, 1865, and a Boai'd of Trustees, with corporate name of the Trustees of the Indiana Agricul- tural 'College, was organized. Governor Morton was ex officio President. This Board received the land scrip of ^390, 000 acres, and sold it for |212,238.50, April 9, 1867. By careful manage- ment, this fund was in(;reased to $840,000, and invested in non- negotiable State bonds l)earing o [)er cent, intei'est, to be ])aid quarterly. This was the [trize for which the Indiana University con- tended. The cause of the University was ably advocated by many of its friends. Among others, President Nutt presented its plea very forcibly to the Legislature, and also in a lecture delivered in fifteen counties in southern Indiana. A synopsis of this lecture is given in the annual i-eport of the University, made in the college year 1865-66. The conditions of the grant were: 1. That at least one college must be organized, the leading object of which should be to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and the mechanic arts. 2. If any portion of the fund, principal or interest, l)e lost, it shall be replaced by the State. 74 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 3. No portion of said fund, nor the interest thereon shall be applied directly or indirectly, under any pretense whatever, to the purchase, erection, preservation, or repair of any building or buildings. 4. The State shall provide within five years, not less than one college as described above. Three plans were proposed for the disposition of tbis impor- tant trust : 1. The endowment of agricultural departments in some five of the leading colleges of the State, including a central institu- tion of research at Indianapolis. 2. The founding of a separate Agricultural College. 3. The establishment of an Indiana State Agricultural Col- lege in connection with the Indiana University. President Nutt showed very conclusively the impracticability of the first method proposed, the uselessness of the second, since the Indiana University was ready to carry out at once the conditions of the original grant, since the whole property of the University thus becomes subsidary to the State Agricultural College. By the union of the endowment of the Agricultural College with that of the State University, the whole endow- ment would be about .$500,000, and would thus make an insti- tution of which the State might be justly proud. These arguments had their weight, and all omens were favorable as to the location of the Agricultural College in Bloomington, till the last day of the meeting of the Legislature. But the gift of Mr. Purdue of $150,000, and the donation of one hundred acres of land appurtenant to the site of the Institution, by the citizens of Chauncey, and |50,000 from Tippecanoe, outweighed the proflfered ofi:er of the Indiana University, and located the Agricultural College in Lafayette, which, though not located in Monroe County, is in conjunction with the Normal at Terre Haute and Indiana University at BhKjmington, a part of the University system of the State. THE ADMISSION OF FEMALES TO THE UNIVERSITY. A change in a long established custom with regard to the admission of females to all the privileges of the University was made in the college year 1867-68. In the preceding year, Mr. Jenkinson, then of Allen County, a member of the Board of HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 75 Trustees, offered a resolution to admit females to the same studies and tlie same standing as the males. For some time before this, the subject, " the eoedueation of the sexes," had been agitated in various educational conventions, and Mr. Jen- kinson was a strong advocate in its favor. C\)operating with others like-minded, he had been instrumental in opening the Fort Wayne Female College to nudes. The other members of the University Board were not prepared for the innovation ; no member but himself approved of the resolution presented. At a subsequent meeting. Judge lihoads offered a substitute for this resolution of Mr. Jenkinson, proposing to admit fe- males to partial rights and p>rivileges, but this was not agreed to by the Board. The original resolution was then pressed, and about the same time a petition was presented by Miss Sarah P. Morrison, asking that the law of the University should be so changed that females, with regard to their studies and privileges, should be put on the same footing as the males. This request of Miss Morrison, coming when the question was before the Board, liad, without doubt, intluence in the Board's deciding in favor of Mr. Jenkinson's resolution. The motion, however, was carried only by a majority of one; four in favor, three against it. Miss Morrison, who knew nothing of the agitation of this question by the Board, received a reply to her petition that the laws of the University with' regard to this matter required no change, and that its doors, with all its rights and privileges, were open to females. Miss Morrison then en- tered the Sophomore Class at the beginning of the next year, 1868-9, and about nine weeks after a number of young ladies entered the Freshman Class, and before the end of the second term tliere were twelve female students. We are not aware that any college before the year 1866, had admitted both sexes to the privileges, excepting Oberlin Uni- versity, Ohio, and the Fort Wayne Female College, the former of which, as early as 1837, had the courage, in the face of pub- lic opinion, to open its halls to all the children of men without regard to sex or color. In the year 1868-9, the number of fe- male students was about ten per cent, of the whole number of the students in the four college classes. In 1886 the number of female students is about thirty-three per cent. 76 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE COMMON SCHOOLS AND THE UNIVERSITY. It is evident that the framers of the first Constitution of In- diana contemplated a system of education which should em- brace the lowest and highest degrees of mental training. They had received from the General Government a large grant of land, the sixteenth section in each township, for the establishment of common schools, and a township of land in Monroe County for a State Seminary of learning. In the old Constitution of the State, adopted when Corydon was the capital, in the year 1816, we have in Article IX, section 2, these words: "It shall be the duty of the General Assembly, as soon as circumstances per- mit, to provide by law for a general system of education, as- cending in regular gradation from the township school to a State University, wherein tuition shall be gratis and open to all." In the preceding section it is said that the " General As- sembly shall pass such laws as shall be calculated to encourage intellectual, scientifical and agricultural improvement, and en- courage the principles of humanity, industry and morality." In the new Constitution, adopted February 10, 1851, Article VIII, the educational system seems to be limited to the com- mon schools, the University Vjeing altogether ignored. But in 1852 amends were made for this omission, by the passing of an act with reference to the University, reading as follows: " Section 1. Be, it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Indiana: The Institution established by an act entitled, An act to establish a college in the State of Indiana, approved January 28, 1828, is hereby recognized as the University of the State.'" This of course sanctions the idea that the Indiana University is at the head of the educational system of the State, and authorizes the action of the State Board of Education, taken May 5, 1873, as follows: ^^ Hesolved, That the State Board of Education recommend the Trustees and Faculty of the Indiana University, in order to unite tlie liigli schools of the State and the University more closely together, to so modify the I*reparatory course of study as to admit students to the Freshman class without the knowl- edge of Greek, putting in place thereof an equivalent in the increased amount of Mathematics and Science." At a meeting of the superintendents and principals of schools of four hundred or more pupils, held in Indianapolis, May 7, HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 77 1873, for the consideration of matters pertaining to the welfare of the schools, the question, "How to harmonize the High School and University courses of instruction," elicited consid- erable discussion. The following resolutions were thereupon unanimously adopted : " Resolved, That we, the members of the Convention of Su- perintendents of the High Schools of the State, respectfully represent that we fully approve the plan of uniting the high schools with the University by the method proposed, viz. : That the high schools shall prepare pupils in orthography, arithmetic, English grammar, geography, physiology. United States history, algebra, geometry, Latin grammar, Csesar, and Virgil, which shall admit them to the Freshman class without the necessity of preparing them in the study of Greek, and that the study of the advanced mathematics be considered as an equivalent for the additional amount of Greek now required for admission. , " Besolved, That Mr. Gow present these resolutions to the Trustees of the University, at their meeting in June, as the ex- pression of our views." These resolutions having been presented, it was " ordered by the Board of Trustees of Indiana University, that the mini- mum standard of admission to the Freshman class in the Uni- versity shall be a creditable examination in orthography, reading, geography, English grammar. United States history, composition, word analysis, physiology, algebra, geometry, Latin grammar, Latin prose composition, C?esar and Virgil or their equivalents." " Second, In order to bring the University into closer con- nection with the high schools of the State, we recommend the following plan: 'A certificate from certain high schools (the schools to be hereafter named by the State Board of Educa- tion) of a satisfactory examination, sustained in the Prepara- tory course, will entitle the bearer to admittance to the Freshman class, and no one will be admitted as a student in the Univer- sity (except those admitted to select studies or on special examination) without such certificate from the authorities of the high schools.' " This arrangement immediately went into eifect, and twenty- one high schools in different parts of the State are mentioned as designated and commissioned by the State Board to prepare 78 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. and examine students for admission to the Freshman class. The part of this arrangement that Greek should not be re- quired for entrance into the Freshman class was quite an innovation, and was regarded hy many scholars and literary institutions throughout the State with great disfavor, and as lowering the college standard and a step downward and back- ward. Xo evil seems, however, to have resulted from it; the ProfesNor of Greek, the late Professor Ballantine, found that in a year after the change had been made he had the scholars as far advanced as under the old arrangement. This may be ascribed to the better and more uniform training in elementary instruc- tion under the Professor himself than the pu})il had under differ- ent instructors, some better and some worse, and each having his own peculiarities. The same may be said with regard to this innovation under the instruction of the present Professor of Greek, Mr. Hoffman. In 1868 the military department of the University was re- vived. In Lieutenant (now General) Ammen's day, a military company of the students was formed — this was in the years 1839-42 — and for a time, drilled every afternoon in the week, except Saturday and Sunday. On General Ammen's resigning in 1842, the military exercises were soon after discontinued. It was not till 1869 that the military department was put in work- ing order, when arrangements were made for instruction in mil- itary science, and also for company and battalion drill. In this department, tactics, out-post duty, military engineering, and science of war, were to be taught ; arms and accoutrements were obtained and Major General Eli Long was detailed by the President of the United States as Military Professor in the Uni- versity. General Long occupied this position only for a year. He was recalled by the War Department from his position in the University and from the Avork so auspiciously commenced. The University was fortunate in securing the service of Colonel .lames Thompson, formerly Assistant Professor of Mathematics in West Point, as Professor of Military Science and Engineer- ing, by whom this department was carried on with consider- able spirit for two or three years. It so happened that many of the students of the military class, who lived at a consider- able distance from the College, found it very inconvenient to attend the drill, and obtained permission to withdraw. While the militarv ardor was thus weakened, the zeal of the students HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 79 took a new direction ; the class of civil engineering was en- larged, and soon the military feature of Colonel Thompson's professorship became less and less prominent, while engineer- ing, mechanical drawing, the construction of bridges, practical surveying, etc., became more and more popular. In 1875 the military features of this department altogether disappeared, and it became the department of civil engineering. This, all the scientiiic students were required to attend. There was an eiFort made by the Trustees al)out this time to establish a gymnasium ; an appropriation was made to erect a building for this purpose in the college campus ; but at a meeting of the Board not long after, it was thought that the money could be put to a better use, and the former action of the Board was rescinded. THE MEDICAL DEPARTMENT. In the Annual Report of 1870 mention is made among the wants of the University, of a gymnasium, and also another pro- fessional school — that of medicine — in which tuition shall be free for all. The Indiana Medical College, at Indianapolis, was, at a meeting of the Board in 1871, made the Medical Department of Indiana University, and in the Report for 1872, this Depart- ment appears as a part of its working force. The College building at Indianapolis had the appliances necessary for the different branches of the medical course. It had also access to the City Hospital, and all the opportunities necessary for teach- ing clinical medicine and surgery. There was also attached to the College a dispensary where gratuitous professional services were rendered, enabling the students to witness and take part in the management of such cases as presented themselves. THE OWEN COLLECTION. The appliances for instruction in physics, chemistry and nat- ural science, were up to the year 1872, very meagre; the Trus- tees, always willing to go as far as their means would allow, were enabled by the grants made by the Legislature in 1867 and 1873, to put these departments, requiring so much and such expensive apparatus, on a much better footing than they ever had been before. In 1870, the large and extensive cabinet of the distinguished geologist, the late David Dale Owen, M. D., of 80 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY, New Harmony, was offered for sale, and purchased by the Uni- versity. Tlie terms were made so favorable that the University was without difficulty aljle to purchase it. The negotiation with the family of the late Dr. D. D. Owen, was made by Professor B. K. Rhoads and Dr. II. Cloud, and the collection was packed and si'ut to IJloomington. It iilled several cars. There was no room for it in the then existing buildings, and all that could be done was to hire a ware-room and store it away. To utilize it, rendered the erection of another building indispensable. When it was determined that a new^ building sliould be pro- vided for the Owen collection, it was thought advisable to erect one sufficiently large to accommodate the law school, library anR. LEiMUEL MOSS. After the resignation of Dr. Xutt, it became necessary to look for a successor. An alumnus of the University, residing in Chicago, suggested that Dr. Moss, who had lately resigned the Presidency of Chicago University, would be the nuin to fill the vacancy in this place. Inquiry was made respecting this retiring President, and the answers received were all favorable as to character and qualifications. It so happened that there was a called meeting of the Board of Trustees in Indianapolis, sliortly before tlie end of the summer vacation, and while in session the Board was informed that Dr. Moss, whose name had been mentioned, was at that time in Indianapolis, with his family, on their way eastward. An interview was had with the Doctor, and shortly after, on the 13th of September, 1875, he was elected President of the University, and his course was diverted from the east and turned to Bloomington, at which place he arrived on Friday, the 17th. On the following day, the Senior Professor, President jjro tern, introduced Dr. Moss to the students, and he then assumed his position as President of Indiana University. Under the preceding President, the University had pros[)ered, and the incoming President entered upon his administration under very favorable auspices. In the Annual Report of 1877 Dr. Moss presented to the Ik)ard of Trustees his views of the aims and wants of the University. Many, if not all, the excellent and appropriate suggestions then made were approved by the Board. The connection of the medical school with the University termin- ated in 1876, having continued five years.* In the following year the law department, established in 1842, was closed. The cause of the discontinuance of these schools seems to have been, *' The connection of the medical school with the University was little more than nom- inal, and of no advantage to either side, and was allowed to lapse, no one objecting. 82 HISTOKV OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. that since, according to tlie decision of tlie Board, the tuition wa8 free, it wouhl liave required an expenditure beyond the means at the disposal of tlie Trustees to secure the services of competent professors. In 1855 there was a so-called scientific course of three years, diifering from the other courses by the omission of Greek and Latin. In 1867 the scientific course was (dianged to a four year course, and additional studies were recpiired. This arrangement continued till the third year of \)v. Moss' Presidency, when three courses were established: 1. Tile course of ancient classics, leading to the degree B. A., Bachelor of Arts. 2. The course of modern classics, in which Frencdi or German was substituted for the Greek. The elements of Greek could, however, be taken in the Sophomore year. Tliis course led to the degree, Bachelor of Letters, B. L. 3. The course in science was the same as the preceding as to hmguages ; but special attention was given to the physical sciences in the Junior and Senior years. This course led to the degree, Bachelor of Science, B. S. Courses of lectures called Special Lectures were introduced by Dr. Moss with the approval and support of the Board. These courses w^ere not long, but were profitable to the stu- dents and the public, as may be inferred from the sul)jects and the distinguished lecturers by whom they were delivered. The first course was delivered in November, 1877, by Pro- fessor George F. Barker, M. D., LL. D., of the LTiiiversity of Pennsylvania. His subject was "Tlie Latest Discoveries and Most Recent Methods in Physics." The lectures were fully il- lustrated by experiments and eloquently delivered. The Pro- fessor exhiliited the telephone, then in its infancy, and also the electric light produced liy the galvanic battery. This light, otherwise produced, was then emerging from the halls of sci- ence and becoming a public illuminator. In 1878 there w^as a highly instructive course of lectures delivered by President James B. Angell, of the University orf Michigan, on "International Law, Illustrated by American History." In Fel)ruary, 1880, the late Richard A. Proctor, B A.., of Cambridge, England, so well known liy his voluminous writ- ings and as a popular lecturer, delivered a course of six lectures on astronomy. These eloquent and instructive lectures were illustrated by diagrams and the magic lantern. HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVKRSITY. 83 In 1880 Professor William T. Harris, LL. D., then of St. Louis, delivered a course of six lectures on " The Philosophy and History of Education." In the following year, Professor Harris, now of Concord, Mass., was invited back to give a course of lectures in pedagogics to the Senior and Junior classes of the University. In the following winter of 1882, Miss Brace, a graduate of Vassar College, gave a five weeks' course in elocution to the Senior and Junior classes, together with several public exhibitions of her remarkable elocutionary powers. The year following she was elected Professor of Elo- cution in the University. Since this time, these special courses have been discontinued. The college year of 1882-8 terminated auspiciously. The last week was a festive occasion, closing with the usual commencement exercises. One evening was devoted to a levee and reunion of the Alumni and their friends. The College societies, the Philomathean, the Athenian and the Ladies' Hesperian, held their valedictory exercises some time during this week, thus closing this very prosperous year. It sometimes happens that calamity follows hard on prosperity. Just one month after the commencement, July 13, 1883, the College building, the corner-stone of which was laid by Gov- ernor T. A. Hendricks and Lieutenant-Governor Leonidas Sexton, July 2d, 1873, was a mass of ruins. As there had been no one occupying the building for more than a week, there is no w^ay of accounting for the tire but by a vivid flash of lightning, which occurred about 6 o'clock p. m. on the 12th of July, during a heavy fall of rain, which contin- ued the whole niglit. The fire must have been smoldering in the building till 8 o'clock, when the alarm was given. The building w^as so pervaded by the smoke that no part could be entered except the museum, in the lower story, from which some tables, covered with specimens, were taken. The valuable library of about 13,000 volumes was completely destroyed, and also all the physical and chemical apparatus, and the valuable collections, together with the library of Professor, now Presi- dent Jordan. Had it not l)een for the exertions of the firemen, and the heavy rain, the other building, only ten feet from it, must have met the same fate. This calamity occurring during vacation, most of the pro- fessors were out of town. In the emergency, the resident trustees, professors and some influential citizens, met and dis- 84 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. cussed the situation. About the beginning of August the board of trustees in a called session, and, with the funds in hand, immediately proceeded to prepare the old college building* for the temporary reception of the professors who had lost their rooms and apparatus by the recent fire. i It was also resolved at this meeting: of the board to select a new site, removed from the annoyance of the railroad, on which to rebuild the University. The board, after an examination of various situations, selected a tract of twenty acres, situate on the eastern border of, and overlooking the city, in what is known as " Dunn's woods." This they purchased from Moses E. Dunn, Es(p, the grandson of the original proprietor. About the beginning of September the Commissioners of Monroe County voted to donate $50,000 to the University, for the .| purpose of erecting buildings ; and by this generous grant, Ij and the money received from the insurance comi)anies, the trustees were enabled immediately to make preparations for building. Mr. George W. Bunting, of Indianapolis, was em- ployed as architect. At the meeting of the board in iSTovember, 1883, the plans were submitted and adopted. Three buildings were at this time stipulated for. On Wednesday, April 2, 1884, the ground was broken. On June 10, in accordance with ar- rangements previously made, the corner-stone was laid. The day was unpropitious, and so rainy that the addresses were de- livered in the Methodist Church, comparatively few assembling to witness the actual ceremony of putting the stone in place. The three buildings were named Wylie Hall, Owen Hall and Maxwell Hall. Wylie Hall, when the main l)uilding shall be erected, is intended for the Department of Physics and Chem- istry. At present (1888), the Chemical Department occupies the first story, its proper place, while the second story is occu- pied by the Library and several other departments besides the Physical. Owen IJall Is intended for and is at present occu})it'(l by the Departments of Natural Science and the Museum. Maxwell Hall is a wooden structure.

The number of graduates was twenty-one ; the whole number of * The building erected in 1854-55. Wylie: Hall.. PliOto-LTiivure, by Wrii. H. BiirtDnl.

On November 8, 1884, the resignation of Dr. Moss was for- mally announced to the Faculty, and also that the Rev. Elisha Ballantine, LL. D., had been appointed President pro tern. All things connected with the University went on harmoniously and very prosperously, considering the great losses sustained by the destruction of the library, the museum, the physical and chemical apparatus, together with the buildings in which were the class-rooms of four professors, showing that the stu- dents and friends of the University had not lost their conli- dence in the institution by the disaster that had befallen it. THE PRESIDENCY OF DR. DAVID S. JORDAN. At a meeting of the Board of Trustees, January 1, 1885, Dr. David S. Jordan, Professor of Natural Scien(;e, was chosen President of the University, and Dr. Elisha Ballantine, vice President. A number of changes have been made in the man- agement of the Institution and the courses of study since Dr. Jordan's inauguration. These changes, however, have been made so gradually that they have not appeared either abrupt or ostentatious. The ordinary business of the college was car- ried on in the old college during the erection of the new build- ings. On the 3d of Heptember, 1888, to the gratification of all concerned, the students assembled in their new and com- modious halls, for prayers, lectures and recitations. Several new professorships have been instituted, and the Faculty in- creased in numbers, corresponding to the increased numbers of the students, and the requirements of the times. The principal features of President Jordan's administration thus far have been the following : " The development of special courses whereby each professor has some opportunity to give advanced instruction in the direc- tion of his specialty, and the student has an opportunity to do something more than to secure the mere elements of a subject. The arrangement of the work is such that each student has a wide range of choice among elective studies, while at the same time he is required- to take up special work of some one de- partment and continue it for three or four years, thus making 7— History. 86 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. it the b{ick-l)()iie of his education, lu the chissical course such thoroughness luis long been required in Greek and Latin, and in nothing else, while the modern substitutes for such a course as a rule, had no central axis, or subject to master. For the ari'aiigement of the studies, which may vary from time to time, see the annual reports of tlie LTniversity. The general course of stud}', which every candiihitc for the degree of A. B. must complete, is as follows: General. — English, one year, daily. Mathematics, one year, (hilly. Some one Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), one year, daily. Ancient or Modern Languages, either one language two years, or two languages one year each, daily. English Prose Composition, once a week through- out the course. Special. — Every student must select for a specialty a subject in which a four 3'ears' course is ottei'ed. The first year in each specialty is identical with some one of the required studies mentioned above. (Collateral. — The head of each department may lay out in connection with his course, work in related subjects, such required collateral work not to exceed six terms of daily recitations, and to be specially arranged for each student. Elective. — The remainder of his work — six terms of daily recitations — the student may elect from any de- partments in the University. Freshmen may first take the required general studies with- out selecting a specialty. The order in which the required and general collateral studies are taken may vary with the condi- tions in each case. The student is to be guided in this case by the advice of the President, and after choosing a s[)ecialty by that of the j)rofessor under whom lie desires to work. Sopho- mores, Juniors and Seniors must report to the professor in charge of the department in which they have chosen their specialty within a week after entering the University. They may change their specialty at the end of a term with the con- sent of the professors in the two departments concerned, but no changes as to the special collateral or elective studies will be HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 87 permitted, after the beginning of a term, and no student will be graduated who has not finished all the work required for graduation in some de])artment, no matter how much work he may have done in other departments. Corresponding to the fourteen departments now fully organ- ized and equipped, and each offering a four years' course to be pursued as a specialty, there are at present fourteen courses leading to the degree A. B. These courses are the same in ex- tent and value. Each requires the same preparation for admis- sion, and each requires four years for completion. Each one requires that the student shall have followed some special line of study for four years. It is intended that every graduate of the University shall have a thorough drill in some department of knowledge, while breadth of culture is encouraged by means of certain general studies required of all students, and by a wide range of elective studies during the Junior and Senior vears." THE LAW SCHOOL. The organization of the Law School was agitated in 1835, if not sooner, early in the administration of the first President of the University. The earliest attempt to organize it as a de- partment of the University must have been sometime between 1835 and 1837. A loose scrap of paper containing a note which the writer probably intended to transfer to the minutes has es- caped destruction, on whicli is the following: WM " JResolt-ed, That in the opinion of the board a professorship of law should be established, to be connected with the college. '' That the law term should consist of four months, from De- cember Ist to March 31st. " That the salary of the professor shall be $300, to be paid as other salaries of the college officers, and that he also be entitled to dispose of lecture tickets for his own l)enefit, the price of which shall not exceed $10 per term. ^^ Hcsolced, That the board now proceed to tlie election of said professor." Mr. Foster (who was a trustee from 1835 to 1838) was ap- pointed teller, and on counting the votes it appeared that Isaac Blackford was unanimously elected professor. There is no further trace of Judge Blackford's professorship. From some notes Avliich had been taken from the old record book of the college, destroyed in the fire of 1883, mention is made of Charles Lewis having been chosen Professor of Law, September 20, 1837. We have no further notice of Mr. Lewis. At the first meeting of tlie board, after the college had been made a university, the following appeared on record in its pro- ceedings under date of September 25, 1838 : " On motion of Mr. Law the board proceeded to the election of a Professor of Law. The result of the election was tluit the Hon. Miles G. Eggleston HISTORY OF INDIANA IINIVP]RSITY. 89 was unanimously elected." Mr. Eggleston declined, owing to circumstances over which he had no control. Application was then made to sevei'al distinguished jurists, but no one was found willing to accept. The matter was then dropped till 1841, when Gen. Tilghman A. Howard was elected, and a very urgent letter was sent to the board re([uesting his acceptance. General Howard, however, declined this earnest recpiest. Al)out a year after this the names of several distinguished jurists were presented to the l)oard. Of this number David McDonald, who was a resident of Bloomington and a Judge of the Circuit Court, w^as duly elected, and on the following day his letter of acceptance was received. In tlie catalogue of 1841-42, the first announcement of the Law School is made by the professor, — but it does not appear that there was any class. In the following year, 1843, there was a graduating class of live, and in 1844, of eight. In the catalogue of this year an announcement was made, of which the following is an extract: " In establishing this department it is the design of the board of trustees to build up a law school that will furnish to gentle- men, intended for the bar, a complete course of legal educa- tion, but since time and experience are necessary in order to establish such an institution on a firm basis, and to give it such a character as will induce its success, it has been deemed ad- visable to adopt merely a temporary arrangement for the pres- ent year. * * * It is intended that the course of study shall occupy four sessions ; the students will be divided into two classes, the Junior and Senior. * * * ^ny gentleman not wishing to study law as a profession may enter the Junior class for instruction in that part of the course which relates to inter- national, constitutional and commercial law. * * * The professor will deliver a course of lectures on international and constitutional law, common law and equity juris[)rudence. He will hold a moot court once a week in which the students will be exercised in drawing pleadings and arguing legal questions and law cases, previously given out, and on each of which he will afterwards deliver an opinion, as well as on the questions of law involved as on the manner of the arguments." Under the direction of Judge McDonald, the Law School prospered. Students from all parts of the State and some from other States attended the classes. 90 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. In 1847 Ju(li;H' W. T. Otto, a graduate of the University of I'eMiisj'lvania, well known in tlie State for his high attain- ments, hotli in law and general literature, was elected as As- sociate Professor of Law, and entered upon his duties in 1847. Judge Otto resigned in 1851, and Judge McDonald in 1853. Judge James Hughes succeeded J udge McDonald and held the office two years, when he obtained leave of absence to take his seat in Congress. During his absence his place was sup- plied by Judge A. B. Carlton. On the resignation of Judge Hughes in 1857, Col. James R. M. Bryant was elected Professor of Law, and held it till 1861, when he resigned to take a po- sition in the army. Judge George A. Bicknell, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, succeeded Colonel Bryant, and continued till 1870. During the last year of his professorship he was assisted by John U. Pettit, of Wabash, who, having been elected Professor of Law, served one year. On their re- signation in 1870, Samuel E. Perkins, of Indianapolis, long a Judge of the Supreme Court, was elected to the position, and began his service in the session ensuing, and held the place till 1872. At the time of the election of Judge Perkins, Bascom E. Rhodes was also chosen Professor of Law, and held this position till the close of the law school in 1877. Judge Delana R. Eckels, of Greencastle, succeeded Judge Perkins, who had resigned, and held this place for one year, when the Hon. D. W. LaFollette, of New Albany, took the the place of Judge Eckels, and in 1875, C. F. McNutt, of Martinsville, Ind., suc- ceeded Judge Eckels, and, associated with Professor Rhoads, attended to the duties of the department till its close. The law de])artment was in a very nourishing condition when it was discontinued, there being forty-one students in at- tendance. By reason of legislative action cutting down the salaries of professors to such a point that competent professors could not be secured, this department of the University closed its doors. It is gratifying, however, to state that after a dis- continuance of the Law School since 1876, the Trustees at a meeting of the Board in June, 1889, have made provision for the re-opening of this important department of the University b}'^ electing Judge David D. Banta, of Franklin, Professor of Law, who has now taken charge of the department. The Law School opened propitiously, with about thirty stu- dents in attendance in September, at the beginning of the col- lege year 1889-90. SKETCHES OF THE PRESIDENTS OF THE INDIANA UNIVERSITY. DR. ANDREW VVYLIE, FIRST PRESIDENT OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. Andrew Wylie was born April 12, 1789, in Western Penn- Hjlvania. He was the son of Adam Wylie, a native of Connty Antrim, in the north of Irehuid, who emigrated to this eonn- try about tlie year 1776, and settled in Fayette County, Pa., then a new country and far west. His father was a hard- working farmer, and his son Andrew was in his youth ac- customed to hard work. His early 'education was such as he received at the common school during the times he could be best spared from the labors of the farm. The early devel- opment of his mind was, in a great degree, due to his mother, who took special pains to imbue the minds of her chiklren with tbe spirit of piety and the love of truth. The late Dr. William Wylie, of Newark, 0., was one of these children. For a number of years Andrew Wylie was engaged in farming. After a hard day's work, he would spend the evening in storing his mind with some useful knowledge. It is to this vigorous exercise which he was compelled to undergo that his sound and healthy constitution is to be ascribed. Till his very last days he every day performed some manual labor out of doors. His favorite exercise was with the ax, in wielding which he had few superiors. From his childhood he was a great reader, reading whatever books he had access to — the Bible, some histories and a few religious works comprised such as he had to use. The writer has seen a manuscript geog- raphy, indicating that it had been well used, which he had copied, and probably modified, when a bo}^, either on account of the difficulty of ]>rocuring a copy, or to impress the subject better on his mind. When about fifteen he entered Jefterson 92 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. College, GanoiKsbiirg, then under the Presidency of Dr. Dun- lap, through which he passed with great honor to himself, defraying his expenses by teaching or some other honest labor. In October, 1810, Mr. W"ylie graduated with the first honor. Immediately after his graduation he was appointed tutor, and Dr. Dunlap resigning about a year after, he was unanimously elected by the Board of Trustees — the Faculty approving the act — President of the College; thus the youngest and lowest of the Faculty was made its head. In the year 1817 Dr. Wylie resigned the Presidency of Jefferson College and accepted that of Washington College, in a town by the same name about seven miles from Canonsburg, in the hope that the two institu- 'tions would be united. In this he was disappointed; the attempted union produced a series of troubles and difficulties, and was, no doubt, the cause of his resignation and removal. It was some time in the fall of 1829 that he, having been elected President of Indiana College, which had been char- tered the year before, removed to Bloomington and took charge of the institution, which had been organized in 1820 and put in operation in 1824, under the name of the State Seminar}^, and had, just previous to the election of Dr. Wylie, been raised to the dignity of a college. The Seminary had been in active operation since 1824, under the superintendency of Professors Baynard R. Hall and John H. Harney. Very different estimates have been put on the character of Dr. AV^ylie. He had many strong friends, and there were also some bitterly opposed to him. Those intimately acquainted with him will not find it difficult to account for this trait of character. He was tolerant, and patient to a fault, of every- thing but meanness and du])licity. A person in whom he had no confidence he would keep at arms' length, and although policy might dictate an opposite course, he would hardly treat one thus regarded with common courtesy. " He would never," to use his own expression, "throw a sop to Cerberus." On the other hand, to those in whom he had confidence no one was more affable. There was sometimes, however, an apparent want of civility, a brusk manner, which doubtless was the cause of some bad feeling toward him on the part of students and others. This arose from a trait of character often found with deep thinkers, when they have some subject of study con- stantly before their uiinds. Dr. Wylie, when in this mood, HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY, 93 hardly noticed any one ; he would brush past his nearest friends, even his wife and daughters, without recognizing them. Per- sons not knowing this peculiarity, when thus apparently slighted, with feelings hurt and pride wounded, would be deeply and often implacably offended. Two characteristics of a good teacher Dr. Wylie had almost to perfection. He had learning and the faculty of communi- cating what he knew. No one understood better how to draw out the mind of the student. Under his training the pupil felt that he was really making progress and not blindly follow- ing a guide almost as blind as himself. Dr. W. H. McGuffey, of the University of Virginia, and the venerable nonagenarian, Dr. John W. Scott, now ('89) of Washington, D. C, and Gov. Henry A. Wise, of Virginia, were among his pupils before coming to Indiana, and General McKee Dunn and Judge An- drew Wylie, of Washington City, are among the earliest grad- uates of Indiana University. As a writer, Dr. Wylie was clear and terse. His Baccalaure- ates and published writings are evidences of this. They are always interesting and instructive. Dr. Parvin, Professor in Jef- ferson Medical College, Philadelphia, and a pupil of Dr. W., thus speaks of the address of Dr. Wylie : " Of those published by him probably that which was delivered before the Philoma- thean Society, of Wabash College, July, '38, the subject of which was: 'The propriety of retaining the Greek and Ro- man classics in their place as a part of study necessar}' in the course of a liberal education,' was most widely known, and won for the author the highest praise. Asher Robins, of Rhode Island, one of the finest classical scholars ever a mem- ber of our jSTational Senate, wrote to him soliciting a copy of the address. Daniel Webster wrote to him for the same pur- pose. Dr. Wylie's 'Eulogy on Lafayette,' delivered in Bloom- ington, elicited a letter from Webster, in which he spoke of the production in terms of the highest praise. Surely the stu- dents of Dr. Wylie are guilty of no l^lind idolatry, or no idola- try at all, when they declare that in ability he was one of the first men in all our country." In addition to his Baccalaureate and other addresses, Dr. Wylie published, in 1839, a small treatise entitled " Sectarian- ism is Heresy." When President ot Washington College, he published an " English Grammar." These and several sermons 94 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. and some traiishitioiis from Plato, published in. a short-lived periodical, the^/^wa/^or, are the principal writings of Dr. Wylie that have been printed. He loft two works ready for the press, "A Treatise on Rhetoric," and one on "The Training of Youth."; ])r. Wylie was brouglit u[) a Presbyterian, and for many: years was a |);istor in that denomination, and much esteemed by his congregation in Western Pennsylvania. In 1841 he connected himself with the Episcopalians, We are at a loss to say what led him to select this denomination when we consider the liberality of his views and his opposition to sectarianism. ^ad lie been influenced either by fear or by favor, or by any seltish motive, a more popular and influential body of Christians than the Ei^iscopalians were, at that time in the State, would certainly have been his choice. However much some of his friends regretted tlie step he had taken, none of those inti- mately acquainted with him lost their confldence in his integ- rity or snspected liim of any sinister motive in making this change. His death took ])lace November 11th, 1851, a full notice of which is given in the History of tlie University (page 57.) REV. ALFRED RYORS, D. D., SECOND PRESIDENT, INDIANA UNIVERSITY. Alfred Ryors was l)orn in the city of Philadelphia, June 23, 1812. He was left an orphan at so early an age that he scarce- ly remembered his ])arents. After their death he found a home with his father's friends in Montgomery County, Pa., with whom he lived till 1823. In the summer of this year, lie united with the Presbyterian Church, under the pastoral care of Rev. Robert Steel, I). D,, with whom lie began a course of classical study in prepai'ation for the Gosi»el ministry. Assisted by the kindness and liberality of friends, and especially of Dr. Steel, he entered the Freshman Class of Jeflerson College in 1831. Here he remained two years, when he left college and engaged as a teacher of Latin and Creek in the School of C. J. Haider- man, at P)ristol, I*a. Professor Halderman was an eminent mathematician and from him he received those lessons which gave direction to his future and contributed to his success as professor of mathematics. In the fall of 1834 he returned to Jeflerson College, and graduated the following year, receiving, HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 95 in a class of forty-three members, its first honors. Previously to taking his degree, he received and accepted the appointment of Principal of the Academic Department in LaFayette Col- lege, Easton, Pa. Here he remained only one year, having, in May, 1836, been elected Professor of Mathematics in the Ohio University. jSTotwithstanding his somewhat severe labors at Easton, lie found time to prosecute a course of theological studies with a view to his regular introduction to the Gospel ministry. After completing his course of study, he was licensed to preach by the Second Presbytery of Philadelphia, in the fall of 1838, three years after his graduation. Having been elected Professor of Mathematics in the Uni- versity of Indiana, in the fall of 1843, he resigned the chair which he had held in Ohio University for more than seven years, and removed the following spring to Bloomington, Ind., the seat of the State University. This position he resigned in 1848, in order to return to the Ohio University, to the Presi- dency of which he had been elected. During his connection with the Indiana University he preached for more than two years to the Presbj^terians of Bloomington, and it was at the request of this congregation that he was ordained by the Pres- bytery of Salem (now iS'ew Albany Presbytery), in 1845. As Dr. Ryors succeeded Dr. W. H. McGruffey, that most pop- ular and gifted instructor of young men, he had no or- dinary ordeal to pass in the new and enlarged sphere of his labors. With what ability, zeal and success, both as a discip- linarian and instructor he filled this responsible position, his colleagues of the Faculty, as well as the students of the Uni- versity, bear decided testimony. It was at the first meeting after his return to Ohio that he received from the University of Indiana the degree of Doctor of Divinity. In the summer of 1852 he was invited to return to Indiana, having been elected President of the University which he had left tour years before. Acce})ting tlie apj)ointmcnt, he resigned the post he held and removed to Bloomington in the fall, to re- main only a year. Disap[)ointed in the condition of the Uni- versity, and opposed by disaffected intriguers and aspirants he determined to resign, and six months after his arrival he sent in his resignation, which, however, at the earnest request of the President of the board, he was induced to withdraw. At the next meeting of the board, at the close of the year, he 96 HISTORY OF INOIANA UNIVERSITY. again resigned, and accepted the invitation to supply for a while the pulpit of the First Presbyterian Church of Madison, Ind. He was called by this church in the May following to be- come their pastor. This call he declined, though still supply- ing their i)ulpit. A few weeks afterwards he was elected Pro- fessor of Mathematics in Center College, Ky., which position he held till he was removed by death. May 8, 1858. Dr. Ryors in 1838 married Miss Louisa Walker, of Athens, Ohio, who still (1890) lives in Bloomington with her daughter, the wife of the Hon. R. W. Miers, one of the ti'ustees of the University. REV. WIEI.IAM M. DAILY, D. I)., LLD., THIRD PRESIDI]NT OK INDIANA UNIVERSITY. A¥illiam M. Daily was horn in Coshocton, ()hio, in 1812. This same year his fathei" moved to Indiana and settled in Franklin County on a farm, near Brook ville, the county seat. There he speirt his childhood days, attending the country school when there was one. Having a frail constitution, it was thonght when he was quite young that he would never be fit for manual lal)or. When he had learned all he could at the country school he was sent to Brookville, w^here he learned all that was taught there. At fifteen he left home to take charge of a school in an adjoining county, and began life for himself, which he preferred to do, althougli his father was in comforta- ble circumstances. He was baptized in infancy and grew up in the Methodist Episcopal Church. At sixteen he exhorted and 1 treadled, the people going for miles to hear the "boy preaclier," as he was called. In 1881 he joined the conference; in 1888 he was ordained deacon; in 1835, elder. While dis- charging all the duties the church recpiired of him as a minis- ter, which were very laborious in those days, he ke])t up his studies, rising at four o'clock in the morning, that he might get a few hours at his books. In 1835-36 he was stationed at Bloomington, Indiana, where he discharged the duties of pastor and student in the Indiana LTuiversity, graduating in 1836. In 1837 he was agent of tlie Preacher's Aid Society. In 1838 he was transferred to the Missouri Conference, and stationed in St. Louis. Soon after he was elected a professor in St. Charles College. He remained in Mis,souri till 1840, when he returned HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 97 to Indiana in broken health, suffering from hemorrhage of the kings. Having improved in health, in 1843, at the suggestion of Bishop Ames he was called to take charge of a congregation in Madison, Indiana. Here he met and was married to Miss Permelia A. Northcraft. In the winter of 1844-45 Mr. Daily was chaplain in the United States Congress, after which he was stationed at Rising Sun and Evansville. At this time he was made agent for Indiana Ashurv (now HePauw) University, and aftei-wards I*residing Elder of the Bloomington and Madison dis- tricts. In 1852 Dr. Daily was a member of the general confer- ence. In 1853 he was elected President of the Indiana Univer- sity, when, after six years of hard labor, he resigned and returned to Madison in 1859. In 1862 he was appointed hospital chaplain at St. Louis, by President Lincoln, which position he held till the close of the war in 1865, when, as he was desirous of going south, at the request of General Yates he was appointed special mail agent. He received the degree of A. M. in course from Indiana Uni- versity, and the honorary degree A. M. from Augusta College, Kentucky, during the presidency of Biship Bascom. He re- ceived the degree of D. D. from Indiana University in 1851, and LL. J), some years afterwards from the University of Louis- ville. Dr. Daily l)ecame connected with the Louisiana Conference in January, 1869, and was appointed to the Baton Rouge Dis- trict, and afterwards to the Upper Coast District. On each of these lie served a term of four years. He was next appointed to the North New Orleans District. Not long after this ap- pointment lie was taken seriously ill, and in a few days departed this life. A few months after his death his remains were re- moved to Madison, Indiana, his old home. Dr. Daily, during his connection with the University, deliv- ered a number of Baccalaureates -which were published. A volume of his sermons was published in Cincinnati.* *Taken from the account published in the minutes ot the M. E.

Y., Jan- uary 22, 1799. He was fitted for college after the manner of the day hy a neighboring clergyman, and entered Hamilton College in 1815. After the second year he availed himself of the larger op|)ortunities of Yale Callege, entered its Junior Class and received his degree in 1819, in standing the saluta- torian of the class. He accepted a tutorship in Yale, and thus obtained means for prosecuting the study of law in the Law Department of that Institution. He, however, tinding the practice of the law uncongenial, decided to give his energies to the cause of education. He taught in various parts of New England, presided over a military academy at ]!*Torwich, Conn., and later over the Gardiner Lyceum, of Gardiner, Maine. In 1829 he w^as called to Hamilton College as Professor of Mathe- matics and i^atural Philosophy. From this institution he re- ceived the degree of LL. I). In 1833 he married Miss Frances E. Lotlirop, of Utica, X. Y., a niece of President Kirkland, of Harvard College. In 1885 he was advanced to the Professor- shi[> of Law, Civil Polity and Political Economy, in Hamilton College. In 1840 he was elected first President of the Pni- versity of Missouri, at Columbia. Dr. Latliro[), though aware of the great sacrifice he made in leaving the East for this new and uncultivated field in the AYest, determined to accept the new trust, and after a journey of six weeks, he reached the remote station. Xotwithstanding the fact that the Fniversity of which he was chosen President existed only in the a[i[)ro- priation of land made by Congress, Dr. Lathro}» succeeded in calling it into real life, organizing it and making it a perma- nent and |tromising institution, with buildings unusually sub- stantial for the })eriod, and etpiipped with an able corps of instructors.

('Vrus Nutt was born in Trumbull County, Ohio, September 4, 1814. He graduated at Allegheny College, Meadville, I'enn- sylvania, in 1831, and commenced his educational labors as Principal of the Pre})aratory Department of his Ahna Mater. He was, not long after, called to a similar position in Indiana Asbury (now DePauw) University, at Greencastle, Indiana. While at the latter place he was licensed to preach the Gospel. In 1887 he was elected Professor of Languages, and in 1841 he was made Professor of the Greek language and Literature, and also of Hebrew. This post he occupied till the fall of 1843, when he took pastorial work in the Indiana Conference, and was a])pointed to Bloomington Station. Here he remained two years, wlien he removed to Salem. In the fall of 1848 he was re-elected to his former position in Asbury University. In 1849 he was chosen President of Fort Wayne Female College. In tlie following year he accepted the Presidency of White- water College. After live years' service in this situation he resigned in order to resume his work in the ministry. In 1855 he was a]>})ointed Presiding Elder in the Richmond District. In the fall of 1857 he was elected Professor of Mathematics in Asbury University, and while in this department, for nearly two years he was the acting President, till the inauguration of President (afterward, Bishop Bowman). In 1859 Allegheny College, his Ahna Mater, conferred on him the degree of Doctor of Divinity. In 1860 he was elected President of Indiana Uni- versity, which ])Ost he held till the end of the college year, 1874-75. 100 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. The writer of this sketch of Dr. Nutt became acquainted with him in 1843, when he was pastor of the Bloomington M. E. Church. As a pastor, he was earnest, diligent and faith- ful, and courteous in his intercourse with all. In 1860 he was called to preside over the University as the successor of Dr. Lathrop. In this important post it can truthfully be said that in many excellent traits of character he was surpassed by none. He was diligent in his work and in his attention to the duties of his office, laboring wholly in the cause of religion and sound education. In the year 1873 the honorary degree of LL. D. was con- ferred upon him by the University of Missouri, and also the same year by Hanover College, Indiana. For his adniinistra- tiou as president, see the accompanying history of the Univer- sity (p. 71). Dr. Nutt married Miss Amanda Standiford, of Greeucastle, April 26, 1838. He died a few weeks after his resignation, August 24, 1875. and was buried in Forest Hill Cemetery, at Greencastle. REV. LEMUEL MOSS, D. D., SIXTH PRESIDENT OF INDIANA UNIVKKSITY.

WILLIAiM RICHARD HAR1)IN(J Was born near Charleville, County Cork, Ireland, December 21, 1795. He graduated at Trinity College, Dublin, with distin- guished honor. He was a " prize man," a rank corresponding to senior wrangler in the English universities. Mr. Harding came to America in May, 1836. In the same year he was elected principal of the Preparatory Department of Indiana College. On Ane-ust 18, 1838, after a little more than a year's service, he died. Prof. Harding received his degree of A. M. from Augusta College. Though but a short time connected with the colleo'e, he had shown his excellence as a scholar and 106 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. ^ ability as a dieeipliiiariaii. His nephew, Prof. Harding, of Le- high University, says of him: "He was a man of decided lit- erary tastes and fond of writing. He wrote many short pieces, poems, etc., some of wliich gained extensive circulation through tlie country." Prof. Harding, of Lehigh, also mentions as an interesting fact, stated in one of his nephew's letters from Bloomington, tliat there were two of his pupils commencing Latin, who went through the whole preparatory course, commencing with His- toriae Sacrae. In addition to this they read Viri Romae, Cfesar and Sallust in the unprecedented time of ninety days' recita- tion. One of these was Chas. H. Hardin, of Columbia, Mo., and tlie other Edward Farqubai", of Logansport, Ind. AUGUSTUS WASHINGTON RUTER. Prof. Puter was born in Philadelphia, Pa., February 22, 1811. He was the son of Rev. Dr. Martin Ruter. Prof. Ruter was a graduate of Augusta College, Ky., of the class of 1830, receiv- ing the degrees A. B. and A. M. in course.

On leaving Bloomington he went to Wheel- ing, W. A'a., and o})ened a female seminary. Continuing a few years in Wheeling, he I'emoved to Pittsl)nrg, Pa., and com- menced the study of law. During his stay in Pittsburg he compiled a concordance or index to the laws of Pennsylvania. This was published by Alden & Fox, and is now in general use. In 1855 he moved to Texas, seeking a more congenial climate. He there was made President of Soule University, Chapel Hill, Texas. Prof. Ruter's health failing, he Avent to Lampasas Springs, where he died of consumjttion in 1869. Prof. Ruter was a memV)er of the M. E. Chui'cli.

He entered the Junior Class of tlie University of Penn- sylvania at its reorganization in 1828, under the Presidency of Dr. DeLancy. At the same time his father, Dr. S. B. Wylie, was elected Professor of Languag-es. He graduated in 1880, receiving the degrees A. B. and A. M. in course. Shortly after graduation he was one of the teachers in the Academy of the University of which Dr. Crawford was Principal. He hecame a student in the Theological Seminary of the K. P. Church, and in 183(3 was licensed to preach. In the same year, after some corres})ondence with the Board of Trustees of Indiana College and its President, Dr. A. Wylie, he was ottered a Pro- fessorship in Indiana University, and at his own request was elected pro tern. Professor of N^atural Philosophy and Chem- istry. In the spring of 1837 he left Philadelphia, and after ten days' journey reached the University in April, and commenced work at the opening of the second term, May 1. After a year's service he was made a permanent member of the Fac- ulty. In 1852 he received an invitation to a Professorship in Miami University, Oxford, O., which was then in a flourishing state and looking u[), while the Indiana University at that time was looking in the ()i)posite direction. After remaining two and a half years at Miami he received an invitation to return to Bloomington to his former position in tlie University, then recovering from its severe calamity, the destruction of its main building in 1854, under the administration of President Daily. With various changes from Professor of Natural Philosophy and Chemistry to Professor of Languages, and in three years after, transferred to the chair of Natural Philosophy, he' continued in the active service of the University till 1886, when he received the honorary title of " Emeritus," which lie still ('89) holds. Professor Wylie, during the annual showers of honorary degrees, was not missed. He received from Miami University the degree D. D., and a year later from Mon- mouth College, and the following year from Princeton College, ]Sr. J., the same honorary title, and shortly after LL. D. from his Alma Mater. Prof. T. A. Wylie married Miss Rebecca Dennis, of Germantown, now in the city of Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 5, 1838. They celebrated their golden wedding Nov. 5, 1888, receiving, among other kind remembrances, a valual)le souvenir from the Faculty of the University. 108 Hl.STORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. JAMES FINDLEY DODOS, A.M., M. I)., Was l)()i'ii November 1, 1807, in Lincoln County, Kentiu-ky, and reeeived his earlv education in the sclioolss of his native county, in part, and in the scliools of Bh)oniington, liis parents moving to this phice when he was in his thirteenth year. Dr. Dodds was among the tirst teacliers in tlie Preparatory' Depart- ment of the College. He graduated in 1834. In 1837 he was elected Professor of Mathematics. He did not long hold this position, owing to some linancial and other dithcnities in the College. That no fault was found with Professor Dodds is shown by the following resolution of the Board, passed Aju'il, 1840, on motion of Governor. William Hendricks : ''Itemlved^ That the Board of Trustees think it due to James F. Dodds, foi" some time Professor in the University, to testity to his in- dustry and tidelity in tilling the duties of his ofhce. His dis- mission was not on jiccount of any fault alleged against liini, but as a nnitter of expediency, resulting from the very ))eculiar circumstances in which it took place."' After leaving l)lo(>m- ington he studied medicine in the Louisville Medical College, and also with Dr. Mitchell, of Corydon, with whom lu' prai'- ticed medicine foi" a yeai' or two. On liis return to Blooming- ton, he continuelace. After leaving Georgetown, he was em- ployed as a civil engineer at Ripley Ohio (from 1855-61). At the t)utbreak of the Rebellion, Professoi" Ammen again took up the swoi'd. IP' organized a c-omjiany of volunteers for the Twelfth Ohio, of which he was captain, April 18, 18(31. In May he was promoted to the Lieutenaut-Colouelcy, anaign in 18(31, was engaged in the battle of Cheat Mountain, Sei»tem- ber 12, and in the action at Greenlirier, ()ctober 3. In the Tennessee and Mississippi campaign of 1862, he commanded a. brigade, and was engaged in the battle of Shiloh, April 6-7, 1862. The Comte de Paris, in his history of the war, highly praises the brigade of which Colonel Ammen was the organizer and commander. Colonel Ammen was made Brigadier-General, L^. S. Volunteers, after this campaign. He was also in the ad- vance upon, and at the siege of Corinth (April 8, 1862), and on the nnirch tlirough north Alabama, and tlie movement at Louisville, Ky., with the army of the Ohio. In 1862-3 he was placed in command at Covington, Ky., and afterward of Camp Pennison, 0., of C-amp Douglas, Ills., and of the District of Illinois, and in 1864, of the Districts of Middle Tennessee and Kentucky, and was in command of the District of East Ten- nessee till January, 1865, when he resigned. Since his resig- nation he has been County Surveyor of Hamilton County, O., and County Engineer. In 1874, in company with other offi- cers of the army, he made an examination of the routes that 110 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. had bot'ii surveyed for the inter-oceanic* canal. At present (1884) he is a snccessfnl fiirmer at Beltsville, Md., and a near neighbor of his distinguished brother, Rear- Admiral Ammen. (Compiled principally from General Cullum's Biographical Register of the Graduates of the U. S. Military Academy.) MATTHEW MONROE CAMPBELL Was born near Cuinl)erhui(l (ii\\), Tennessee, November 12, 1810. In 1818 the family moved from the Gap and settled on the hirge military claim which covered the southeast quarter of the city of Louisville, Ky. In 1829 he came to Blooming- ton, attracted there by the reputation of Dr. Andrew Wylie — who in the preceding year was made President of the Univer- sity, and became a student under him, with a view to entering the ministry. He did not graduate till after the seventh year of his arrival in Bloomington. During one of these years he taught and for the last two years he assisted in the preparatory dei)artment, at the same time keeping up the studies of his class. In 1836 he graduated Avith honor and with a high re}>u- tation for a devout and consistent piety. Soon after gradu- ating, he married Miss Martlia McPheeters, and in 1837 he took a school in Mississippi at a salary of $1,200 a year. In 1840 he was called to take cliarge of the preparatory department of Indiana University, and though the salary was but $500, he, thi'ough his attachment to Dr. Wylie, whom he regarded as his personal friend, accepted the ofier and hastened to return. Instead of finding a full faculty and only the usual amount of work, he found Init two professors — death and a college cyclone had swept olf all the others — and thus the work of six men de- volved upon himself and the other tw^o. On the ground of his assisting so frequenth* in teaching the regular college classes, he was made adjunct Professor of Languages. In 1853, his health failing, lie retired to his farm. In 18(33 he w^as called to till a vacancy in the chair of languages, occasioned by the resig- mition of Prof. Ballantine. In 1859 Mr. Campbell was agent for tlie Auierican Bildc Society in Kansas, during wliich he exer- cised his talent as a lay-iuviicliei' of the gospel in the different l»laces he visited. The famine and drought which prevailed in Kansiis in iStiO tci'minatcd tliis aircncv. In 1861 he I'eceived HISTORY OF INDIANA IXIVERSITY. Ill from Governor Morton a chaplain's commission for the Eighty- second Regiment Indiana Vohinteers, a position unsolicited I)y him. Not l^eing an ordained preacher hnt only an elder in the Presbyterian chnrch, he felt himself nnqnalitied to accept. As he was directed to report immediately to headqnarters, , and as it was impossible to convene the Presbytery immedi- ately, he applied to the Methodist Conference, then in session in Bloomington, which courteously received him and immedi- ately licensed him to preach, regarding his Presbyterian ordi- nation as snfRcient. He immediately joined his regiment and continued with it till the end of the war. Prof. CampbelTs last public service was as superintendent of the public schools of Monroe County, Ind., which office he held for four years ; and now, a widower, without a home of his own, at the homes of his son and daughter, he spends his time teaching and training his grandchildren and other children, with the hope that they may become good and useful members of society. During three or four years past (since 1884) he has been nearly blind, l)ut notwithstanding this great disadvantage, he has been laboring earnestly to direct the attention of onr statesmen and people to the importance and advantage of cor- recting the orthography of the English language, showing, in several letters which he has published, the great saving of time there would be in the education of children and the advantage that there would be to all, even to the educated, in not being obliged to consult a dictionary for the correct spelling of a Avord. Prof. Campbell has published a number of open letters, calling the attention of statesmen and teachers and the public in general to the importance of the reform in the orthography and orthoepy which he proposes to make, and which he con- siders worthy of the attention of the rulers of the English speaking people in all parts of the world. JOHN IRWIN MORRISON, Born July 25, 1806, near Chambersburg, Franklin County, Pa. He had for his teachers in early youth the Rev. Samuel W. Crawford, D.

In 1847-50 he was elected State Senator, and was appointed by the Senate, senatorial delegate to the constitutional eonventiouj was chairman of the Committee on Education, and drafted sub- stantially the article on education. Mr. Morrison has also the honor of being the author of section 8 of the law which cre- ated the office of " State Superintendent of Public Instruction."

At the beginning of the year 1880 he coinnienced the study of law, devoting a certain number of hours every day to tiiis work. At this time he also had charge of a school. In 1880 lie was admitted to the bar. During the first yeai' of his jiractice his income amounted to about $250, but after this his practice was always remunerative. In 1888 he was elected to the Legisla- ture from the counties of Daviess and Martin, and in this year he was admitted to j)ractice in the Supi'cme Court of Indiana. In 1884 he was elected Prosecuting Attorney for the Seventli Judicial Circuit; this inehided ten counties. In 1836 he was reelected. In 1888 he was chosen Circuit Judge, and this office he lield for two terms of seven years each. In September, 1841, he removed to Bloomington, and soon after was elected Professoi- of Law in Indiana University, in which office he continued till 1852. In November, 1851, the new constitution was adopted, which made sweeping changes in the judiciary. On this account, although urged to the contrary by his fi'iends, he declined nomimiticni. Xot long after he was [)laced b}' the Whigs on the State ticket as a candidate for the Su[>reme Bench; but as tlie Whigs were in the minority he was not elected; his popularity, however, was shown V)y his receiving 5,000 more votes than any others on the same party ticket. In 1853 he commenced the practice of law in Indianapolis. In 1856 he was elected President of Indiana Asbury University, which honor he declined, for tlie same reason that he declined the degree of LL. D. conferred by Indiana University, viz., that he had not received a collegiate education. In 1854 he was severely affiicted by the death of a loved daughter. Not long after this he united with the Methodist P^tiscopal Church. In 1861 he was again subjected to a severe affliction by the death of his estimable wife. In 1864 he was appointed .hulge of the United States Dis- trict Court for Indiana, whicli position lie lield till his death, August 26, 186M.

In the year 1843 he was elected Professor (tf Ancient Languages in Indiana University. In this situation he continued till the year 1856, when he was called to the same position in Wiscon- sin University, where he remained till 1866, when, on the death of President Lathro[s he was called to the Presidency of Mis- souri University, which position he held till his sudden death, Octoher 3, 1878, put an end to his earthly career. During his connection with the University of Indiana he was chosen a member of the Constitutional Convention, held in Indianapolis in 1851, in which he took an active pai't in nniking the Con- stitution of the State- of Indiana what it now is. President Read was the oldest child of Ezra Read, of Ur- hami. O. Thei-e were in the family eight sons and one -h- ter. Dr. Head paid great attention to the education of his younger brothers and sister, all of whom were graduates of respectable colleges, and several of tliem distinguished in pro- fessional life. Two of his brothers were officers in the regular army of the United States. One of them was killed at the head of his regiment during the rel)ellion. Another brother I HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 115 was Captain in the navy, and was killed on the deck of the vessel commanded by him on the Mississippi Kiver, near Baton Kouge. His sister, Mi's.

General Theodore Read, Dr. Read's only son, the hope and pride of his family, was killed at Appomattox Bridge, in Virginia, in the spring of 1865, and in one of the l)attles immediately preceding the sur- render of General Lee. Dr. Read stood prominently l)efore the country as a distin- guished educator.

Bcfoi'c his connection with the University, in the interim tictweeu the Mexican war and the \var of the Rebellion, first as Majoi' and aftei'wards as Lieutenant Colonel, he was con- nected with the Western Militar}' Institute of Kentucky, as Professor of Xatural Science. While in the Military Institute, Dr. Owen not only gave instruction in his own depai'tment, but shared with Colonel B. H. Jolmson in the military train- ing of the students, and as commandant was eliiefiy charged with the disci})line of the histitution and with the manage- ment of the l)arracks. Foi- tliree years he was engaged in the Litci-ary department, of the University of Xashville. In In- diana University, Dr. Owen was Professor of Xatural Ulnlos- ophy and Chemistry, from 1863 to 1867. Professor of Xatural Science and Chemistry from 1867 to 1879.

Dr. Owen also made a geological exam- ination of parts of North Carolina and of East Tennessee. Dr. Owen also contributed largely to periodicals, both scientific and literary. Since his resignation in 1879 his re- searches have principally l)een in terrestrial magnetism and its eft'ect on the formation of land on our glol)e. The re- sults of these researches have been published partly in the pro- ceediufi^s of the A. A. A. S., and partlv in ''Science,'' a weekly journal. From Dr. Owen's early home training, and the inlluence of a pious mother, he alwaj's manifested a religious spirit, while at the same time his father's skepticism and principles and oppo- sition to Oliristianity liacJ its effect upon him, causing him to doubt the truth of revealed religion. Dui'ing his whole life he retained a s|»irit of lil)erality to all wlio conscientiously dif- fered from him in his religious or political views. He always deprecated violence and extreme l»artv sj)irit. He respected each man's individuality and ]»eculiarity, when not interfering Avith another man's rights. It is not strange that, when in Bloomington, associating with God-fearing men in the town and in the faculty of the University, he professed his faith in the Divine Savior and became a member of and an ofiice-ljearer in the Presl)yterian church. Dr. Owen died March 25, 1890, at New Harmony, from the effects of poison accidentally taken, while engaged in his philosophical studies with youthful ardor.

About this time he received a call to the Latin chair of Jefferson Col- lege at CannonsbuTgh, Pa., where he remained live years. He was then, in 1886, elected to the chair of mathematics in Indi- ana University, vacated by Professor Kirkwood, continuing in this position a year, and on the return of Professor Kirkwood, its former occupant, to the LTniversity, Professor Dodd was transferred to the chair of Latin Languages and Literature. In 1867 Professor Dodd received a call from his Alma Mater to the chair of mathematics, which he accepted, and soon after removed to Williamstown, where he still resides. Professor Dodd Avas not only an able mathematician and an excellent classical scholar, but he Avas well versed in English literature. He was a great lover of books, as his well selected library at- tests. Professor Dodd could work not only extraordinarily well with his head, but also Avith his hands; Avas skillful in the use of physical apparatus. He could print a book and then bind it as Avell- as if brought up to these arts; could build a Ijouse and make its furniture as Avell as. the trained carpenter or cabinet maker.

At the outbreak of the rebellion he engaged actively in re- cruiting soldiers. In 1862 in less than three weeks he mustered thirty-five liundred men, and in the following year assisted in organizing tlie Orphans" llcnne, at Knightstown, Indiana. In 1865, after others had failed, he was largely instrumental in ju'ocuring a commutation of the sentence t>f Bowles and Milli- gan, who had been condemned to death by the United States Military Commission for treasonable conspiracy in Indiana. On Afay 2 an order came from President Johnson to carry into effect the sentence, without delay. The date fixed was .lune 2, 1865. Judge Pettit was dispatched to Washington by (tov- ernor Morton to secure from the President a commutation of the sentence. Through the energy of Judge Pettit, acting under the earnest direction of (lovernor Morton, the sentences of these men were commuted. Judge Pettit was a ri|>e scholar and a great reader. He was well acipiainted with history, poetry, and the curi-ent literature of the day. He excelled in his knowledge of law.

In 1880 he again re- signed his phiee in the University, and in November of the same year he was a}>pointed by President Chadbourne to the Chair of Modern Languages in Williams College, Mass. Dr. Chadbourne resigned soon afterward and the trustees did not eontirm the a})|»ointment, but left it to the new President to till the place as he pleased. Without inquiry as to the success of Professor Boiseirs woi-k, and without reference to the promise made by Dr. C^hadbournc that the appointment should he made permanent if his teaching was satisfactory, Dr. Carter chose another for the jdace. Sensitive in the extreme, Professor Boisen felt most keenly the injustice with which he was treated, lie was now forced to give up a trip to Europe, and spend tile summer at Martha's Vineyard, where, there was a summer institute. In the fall he went to Boston, where he ga\'c [>rivate lessons, and also [»re[)ared tAvo books for puldica- ti(Ui. The " First Course in (xerman "' was written for use in his own classes, and not a very large edition was published. Since his death Professor Bernhardt has enlarged it and added a second \-()lume, and it is now used in many schools. Being- appointed a Director of the Martha's Vineyard Summer Insti- tute, he spent a second summer at C^ottage City, and com[)leted the manuscript of his second l)ook, ''The Preparatoi'v Book of German Prose," which is (piite extensively used. In 1882 he was appointed Sub-Master of the Elliott School in Boston. The work in this school gave him great pleasure, but it also took all his time and he could accomplish but little outside work, and he had planned to do a great deal. Accordingly in 1883 he very gladly ac(;e}>ted a call to the Lawrenceville School in Xew Jersey, for there he would have leisure for other work. The l)eginning of the work at Lawrenceville was greatly sad- dened ])y the death of his l)rother. Christian, a young man of noble character. His own health was not so good as in former years, but he went to work with his accustomed energy and earnestness. His love for the l)()ys under his care was untir- ing. Everything he could do to make them happier and bet- ter was done, and they appreciated his love for them and his devotion to their interests. As soon as he was fairly settled in his new home he began to work upon his first volume of Language Lessons, a book for use in the puldic schools. But 138 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. suddenly lie was taken violently ill ; the doctor said his heart was affected. In two or three days he was up, and insisted on going to school. He heard all his classes on Monday, January 21, 1884. Ahout eight o'clock that evening, almost without warning, he had left us. The stone that marks his last rest- ing place, after names and dates, l)ears this inscription : " Ei-ected hy his colleagues and pupils of the Lawrenceville t-^chool as a tribute to his worth as a uian and his genius as a scliolar."" RASKIN E. RHOADS Was born in 1884, near J'hiladelphia, PVnnsylvania. In the following year the family moved to Parke Oounty, Indiana, and settled near Rockville. In 1840 they removed to Wave- land, Indiana. He received his early education in the Wave- land Academy, wdiere he resided till the death of his father, in 1875. At sixteen years of age he was prepared to enter col- lege, but on account of delicate health he learned the ai't of tanniug with David Mann. After becoming master of the art he returned to the Waveland Academy, and after studying six months he taught in the Huxford school house. He returned after three months and spent another term in the Academy, when he was chosen Principal of the Newport School, where he taught and studied, preparing himself for the Junior Class of Wabash College, which he entered in 1858 and graduated in 18H0. Soon after graduation he was chosen Professor of Xat- ui'al Science in the Clinton Institute, and early in 1861 was put in charge of the Rockville pul)iic school, where he remained till the suuimer of 18()2. From 1862 till 1870 he practiced law in Newport. In 1864 he was chosen Representative of Vermillion County. He served in the Legislature with great distinction, in the regular and special sessions. As a member of the Committee on Edu- cation he drafted the present School Law, which was passed, and presented by himself to Governor Morton, who signed it in his presence. The law was passed with but little alteration from the original draft. Judge Rhoads also introduced and warmly su})i»oi'ted the bill for organizing the Xormal School at Terre Haute, in con- sideration of which the teachers of the State unanimously chose hiui to delivei- the annual address at their meeting in LaFavette, in 1866. In 1etrator of this fraud has since confessed it. In .Vpril, 1881, Judge Plioads was ap- pointed hy (xoveriKu- Porter, Judge of the Superior Court of \^igo County. In additiou to Judge Uhoads distinction as a scholar, law- yer and politician, he has also some claim to distinction as a scientist. In 1802 Judge Rlioads made a geological tour among the hills of Sand Creek, and there unearthed a stone, iu which was imhedded a fossil never hefore classified. This fos- sil was sent to Professor Meek, the paleontologist of the Smithsonian Institute, who pronounced it new and valuahle. It is figured in tlie Fifth Volume of the Illinois Geological reports, Dana and Agasiz proiujunce it the first discovery of the kind, and hence entitled to the discoveror's name — Enpa- chijcriiuis Tii/irrciilfifits Rhoddsij. .JAxMES THOMPSON Was born September 27. 1828, in Franklin, Delaware County, N".

From 1854 to 1857 Lieutenant Thompson was Assistant Professor of Mathematics in the ^lilitary Academy. In 1859 he was in the gai'rison at Fort Independence, Boston Harbor, Mass. Li 1860-1)1 he was on frontier duty at Fort Brown, Texas, ami in the latter part of 1861 at Fort Hamilton, X. Y. While at Fort Brown the Rebellion was inaugurated, and Jjieutenant Thompson was one of the first prisoners of war. He was pai'oled and came to Newport, where he remained until ex- changed. He served during the whole of the War of the Re- bellion — in defense of Fort Pickens in 1861, in the Manassas campaign, and in battle of Bull Run, July 21, 1861. Before this cara[»aign he had been promoted to a captaincy for gallant conduct. He next served in the defenses about Washington, D. C. Next we hild him in the Peninsular campaign (Army of the Potomac), engaged in the siege of Yorktown, at tlie battle of Williamsburg in 1862, in the battle of Fair Oaks May 31, 1862, in skirmishes on the 25th t(» 29th of June, 1862, near Seven Pines, and in the battle of (llendale, June 30, 1862. For his meritorious and gallant services at this battle he was bre- vetted Major. On the following day he fought at the battle of Malvern Hill, and on the next day in a skirmish at Harrison's Landing. For about a month he was absent on sick-leave. After this he served as Chief of Artillery in defense of Cin- cinnati during the rebel raid in September, 18()2. He next served in the department of Ohio, and while in the army of Kentucky he was engaged in the defense of Fraidclin, Tenn., and in the battle of Chicanniuga, Oa., in September, 1863. He organized an artillery regiment in Kentucky in 1863 and 1864, and was on mustering and disbursing duty at Louisville, Ky.

In September, 1864, he was iu the garrison at Fort Point, Cah, and on mustering and dis- bursing duty at San Francisco, Cah, in 1865, and on recruiting service in January, 1866, at the same place. Major Thompson was l)revetted Lieutenant Colonel March 13, 1865. Such is the account given of Colonel Thompson in the U. g. Army Regis- ter. In 1860 he was Commissioner of Education for Ten- nessee under General HoAvard, and had charge of the educa- tional interests of the freedmen. It was under his superinten- dence that Central Tennessee College at Nashville was founded. The freedmen, for whose mental and moral condition he has done so much, loved him, and gave his name to the chapel of the College. In 1859 failing, health compelled his retirement from the army, or, as expressed by the official Army Register, "he was retired from disability resulting from long and faith- ful service." In 1870 he was offered and accepted a Professor- ship of Military Science and Civil Engineering in Indiana University. He remained in Bloomington until 1876, when his health l)ecame so l)ad that he resigned and returned to New- port. Colonel Thompson, the brave soldier and the man of science, was an humble follower of Christ and an active member in the Methodist Episcopal Church. Both in Bloomington and as a meml)er of Glrace Church, Newport, Ky., with which he had connected himself in 1866, he held a number of church offices ; and in all these offices, whether as steward, Sunday-school teacher or superintendent, he discharged all the duties devolv- ing upon him with energy and zeal. During the last years of his illness he suffered much. On Friday, February 13, 1880, he departed this life. In the words of his pastor, Rev. M. Mul- lenix, to whose o])itaary notice we are indebted for a part of this sketch, "Colonel Thompson was one of the wisest, truest and purest men we have ever known." JUDGE SAMUEL E. PERKINS. Samuel E. Perkins was born in Brattleboro, Vt., on the 6th of December, 1811. He was left without parents or property when five years old, and was adopted into the family of Wil- liam Baker, a respectable farmer of Conway, Mass., with whom he lived and lal)ored till he was twenty-one.

After he had reached his majority he pursued his studies in ditferent schools, working mornings and even- ings and during vacations to raise money for tuition and sup- port. The last year of this course of studies was spent in the Yates County Academy, jSTew York, of which Seymour B. Gookins, a bi'other of Judge Gookins, of Terre Haute, was Principal.

Pleasant, and afterward at Washington, Daviess County, Ind. Before entering college he taught school, giving great satisfaction to all concerned. As a student of the University, he entered as a Freshman in 1866, was one year absent from the college, and graduated with high honor in 1871. Immediately after graduation he was elected to teach (Ireek and Latin in the Bedford Male and Female College Seminary. After a year's service in Bedford, he \vas invited to take charge of the Freshman Chiss in Indiana Tni- versity. The following year he was elected by the Trustees Principal of the Preparatory Department, in which ]iosition he continued till 1884. The Trustees, at the recommendation of the Faculty, conferred on him the degree A. M., a year l)efore the usual time in which students who pursued, after graduation, a literary course, received it. As Principal of the Preparatory Department, Professor Houghton showed himself to l)e a thoroughly competent instructor, and an excellent disciplin- arian ; not only attending to the duties of the school, but doing a great amount of work in the study of History and Govern- mental Science. Professor Houghton's ettbrts at (d>Jective teaching in History attracted the attention of the College Board, and the President of the Board (John I. Morrison) sug- gested the embodiment in the form of a publication, both for the school room and for original work. This novel method of presenting " History " also attracted the attention of Attorney- General Baldwin (then umicquainted with Professor H.) who urg-ed him to undertake the Constitutional Ilistorv of the ll^nited States by administrations. This work was not under- taken at that time, owing to the pressure of other matters. For several years Professor H. was engaged in compiling in- formation on Historical and Governmental subjects, to be used in future publications. In conjunction witli Professoi' Hernum B. Boisen, the Professor of Modern Languages in the Univer- sity, the plan was laid for uniting the High Schools with the State University. The plan was adopted and the result secured, but the originators remained unknown. Professor Houghton is the author of several works, some of which are hei-e men- tioned. 148 HISTORY OF INDIANA INIVERSITY. 1. '' Porti-iival of United States History, Literature and Ge- ography."'

On moving to Kesaugna, Iowa, commenced practice. At this time his pecnniary cap- ital was zero. In 1865 Judge Wright removed to DesMoines, his present residence (1889). In 1847 he was elected Prose- cuting Attorney for Van Buren County. In 1848, State Sen- ator, as a Whig, by a majority of 140 in a county having a Democratic majority of about 250. In 1852 was voted unan- imously by the Whigs for the United States Senate, but was left in the minority, as the district was overwhelmingly Dem- ocratic. He then returned to the practice of law. In 1855 was elected Chief Justice of the State Supreme Court, by the Legislature. This position he- held till 1860, when he declined a reelection the fall before, by the people, according to the Con- stitution of 1857. In 1860, a vacancy on the bench occurring, by death, Governor Kirkwood requested Judge Wright, to fill the unexpired term. Judge Wright was elected for the unex- pired term that fall, and in 1865 was again reelected for a term of six years. In 1870, while occupying this place, he Avas elected United States Senator, and entered upon the duties of his office March 4, 1871. Having served as Senator for six years, he declined a reelection, and in March, 1877, returned to the practice of his profession, not however, engaging in ge'n- eral practice, but giving his attention only to cases in the United States Supreme Court. In 1865, in connection with two others, he opened a law school in DesMoines. Three years after, at the request of the Regents of Iowa University, this law school was made a department of this institntion. Here he continued to teach and lectnre till January, 1871, resigning this place on account of his approaching duties as Senator. Recently he has engaged to return to his law professorship for a short term each year. For ten years past he has nearly all the time taken an active part in political campaigns, generally in Iowa, sometimes in other States. Judge Wright has been a diligent worker, not only within but outside of his profes- sional duties. He has lectured two hundred times or more, be- fore societies and colleges on commencement occasions, before lyceums, for the benefit of library associations, school libra- ries, and for many benevolent, literary, church and like asso- ciations. Among these should be mentioned the eloquent address delivered in the M. E. Church, before the Alumni of Indiana University, June 11, 1889. Judge Wright's ambition 184 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. has been, not to accumulate wealth, but rather to bring up a good family, and to acquire the means to do it. In these aims he has been successful. Tliree of his sons are lawyers, two of them associated with liimself in the practice of law, and the third at Sioux City, all eminent citizens. It is pleasant and profitable to contemplate such a life as Judge Wright's — a self-made man, born in poverty — his father dying when he was five years old, his mother left with l)ut little propet^ty, and that unproductive. All the children, as soou as they were able, had to work for their living. His distinguislied brother. Governor Joseph A. Wright, was glad to undertake any menial work about the college, or elsewhere, while he was a student, but was unable, through want of means, to complete the course of study. In order to hel[) his widowed mother and the younger members of the family, he gave up for a time the studies in which he delighted. George, the subject of this sketch, at an early age was attacked by rheumatism, which afflicted him severely for seven years, and left him a crip- ple for life. When about fourteen years old he first went to school, having been taught to some extent by his motlier and l)rothers at home. His name first occurs in a MS. list of the students in the winter term of 1834-5. His honesty, prudence and temperance in all tilings, with the talents God gave liim, have made him a distinguished citizen of his adopted State. Judge Wright is a member of the Meth- odist Episcopal Church, and heartily thanks the Giver of all good for the blessings he has received, and for the care of a good mother, and for the lessons he received from his teachers, and especially from the President of the University.

Charles Leslie McKay, born at Appleton, Wisconsin, April 21, 1855. Died near Cape Constantine, Alaska, April 19, 1883. Educated at Appleton Collegiate Institute, Wisconsin. Dr. David S. Jordan was his teacher while at this Institution, and finding that he had a remarkable talent for learning and a taste similar to his own, he took a peculiar interest in him. Under this influence young McKay decided to be a naturalist, and, as a preparatory step, he entered the N^atural History Department of Cornell University. After spending some time at Cornell, he became a pupil of his friend. Dr. Jordan, in Butler Univer- sity, and afterward in the University of Indiana, in 1879, where he graduated in 1881, receiving the degree, B. S. Before graduation he acted as assistant to Professor Dudley, of Cor- nell, who temporarily occupied the place of Dr. Jordan, then in California. In the winter of 1881, he was for a short time assistant to the United States Fish Commission. In the spring of the same year he received the appointment as Signal Oflicer at Nushagak (Fort Alexander), on Bristol Bay, Alaska. He graduated with the Class of '81, receiving from the Faculty the distinction of " Graduated With Honor." Mr. McKay made ichthyology an especial study. He had, before leaving for Alaska, nearly ready for publication a monograph of the fresh- water sunfishes. An outline of this work was published in the proceedings of the United States National Museum for 1881, with descriptions of three new species, which lie had discovered. Mr. McKay left for San Francisco in June, 1881, and proceeded directly to Alaska, where he remained at Nushagak, with but a single white companion till his death in 1883. The National Museum has received from him large collections of birds, fishes, plants, minerals, skins and skeletons of mammals and Indian reli(;s. On the 17th of April, 1883, Mr. Clark, the agent of the Alaska Commercial Company, at ISTushagak, Mr. McKay's only white associate during his two years in Alaska, communicated the sad news to his father, Mr. Hector McKay. He informed his father that he left in company with a native, each of them in a single canoe. They passed the night at an Indian village, sixteen miles from the station. The next day being stormy, they lay over in the village. On the morning of the 19th, as 288 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. it was calm, they left the village to cross over the bay, a dis- tance of twelve miles. When about two-thirds of the way across, a strong wind sprang up. Mr. McKay, in his canoe, was left behind, and was never seen again. Search was made, broken pieces of the canoe were found, his gun and rubber boots and other articles were picked up on the beach, about a mile from the village they had left in the morning. Thus, in the prime of life this young and enthusiastic naturalist was suddenly cut off. The above account is taken and abbreviated from a notice of Mr. McKay by President David S.

With regard to the foundation of Indiana University in its present locality, its survival during its infancy while a seminary and its successful opposition to many adverse influences during his lifetime, there is no one to whom more credit is due than to David H. Maxwell as a legislator and as a trustee. For these reasons he is worthy of more than a passing notice. Dr. Maxwell was horn near Lancaster, Garrard County, Ky., September 17, 1786. His parents were from Virginia and his grandparents from County Londonderry, in the north of Ire- land. They were Scotch-Irish Presbyterians, and emigrated at a very early date to the colony of Virginia. Dr. Maxwell's early training was finder that rigid discipline characteristic of the Scotch-Irish, a discipline from which he did not de- part when training his own family. His early education was at home, and such as the neighboring schools afforded. "When about eighteen years old, in order to avail himself of better advantages, he went to school in Danville, Ky., where he became well versed in mathematics, as they were taught in that day, and was an excellent, well-read English, though not classical, scholar. He studied medicine with Dr. Ephraim McDowell, a distinguished physician and surgeon of Danville. Having completed his professional studies, he married Miss Mary E. Dunn, of Danville, in 1809. Soon after this he moved to Jefferson County, Ind., where Hanover now stands. Here he practiced medicine till 1812. In this year he joined a volun- teer company of rangers under Captain Williamson Dunn, and HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 465 served for about a year in keeping back the Indians from their incursions on the white settlements. Soon after this he moved to Madison and practiced medicine there. While there he was elected a delegate to the first constitutional convention, held at Corydon in 1816. In this year President Madison designated Perry Township in Monroe County, as the additional township to which Indiana was entitled for educational purposes on be- coming a State. From this time Dr. Maxwell's attention was directed to Monroe County, and having bought a lot at the first sale in Bloomington in 1818, he, with his family moved to this place, arriving here May 10, 1819. Dr. Maxwell appreciated more than most of the early set- tlers the advantages of an education higher than that of the country schools, and also anticipated the educational possibili- ties at Bloomington. He chose this place as his home, and ever since, to the end of his life, in his character as a private citizen, as a representative and senator, as an excellent writer, as a man of sound judgment, and for many years as President of ,the Board of Trustees, he was indefatigable in his labors for the in- terest of the University, Dr. Maxwell, presuming somewhat, perhaps, upon his ac- quaintance with many of the old members of the constitutional convention, of which he himself had been a member, went to Corydon to use his influence as a lobbyist, and to procure, if possible, the location of the State Seminary at Bloomington. The result was favorable, and on the 20tli day of January, 1820, an act was passed establishing the Seminary at this point on the Seminary township. Dr. Maxwell was then appointed one of its Trustees, and soon after the organization was elected President of the Board. This position he continued to hold with but little intermission, till the establishment of Indiana College, January 24, 1828. He was President of the College Board from 1828 to 1840, with the exception of one year. Dur- ing this year, 1838, he was a member of the Legislature, a rep- resentative from Monroe County. In 1840 the Board consisted of twenty-two members, too large for the dispatch of busi- ness, and on the passage of the act February 15, 1841, charter- ing the University, the number of the members of the Board was cut down to nine. Of this Board Dr. Maxwell was chosen President, which ofiice he held continuously till his resignation in 1851. 466 HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. During the Seminary period of the Institution it may, in truth, be said that Doctor Maxwell was not only the presiding officer, but also its executive officer and corresponding secre- tary. The erection of the new building was in a great measure under his supervision. By him all accounts and orders for money were allowed. Besides all this there were other minor duties which took up much of his time. Not the least among these was a large correspondence with prominent men in differ- ent parts of the state, to interest them in behalf of the new Institution of learning. Many of these subsequently were members of the Board. He worked not only among a dis- affected element at home, to popularize the Institution, but sought favorable consideration from the Legislature. To this end he asked his constituents to send him to the Legislature,- and was elected a representative in the House for four consecu- tive years, namely, the years 1821, 1822, 1823 and 1824. In one of these years he was chosen speaker. During this time many important matters touching the interest of the seminary came up, more especially as to its prospective financial capability. In the years 1825-26 he was elected as senator from the dis- trict composed of the counties of Monroe, Owen and Greene, and was still ever watchful as to the legislation affecting the seminary. It was during his senatorial term, in 1826, that the question as to what disposition should be made of the semi- nary land in Gibson and Monroe counties came up. It was the question of the canvass for that year before the people of Mon- roe County, for they were personally interested. Much of the desirable and very excellent land in Perry township had been leased for a term of years, according to the law, and of course the lease-holders, men of little means generally, were anxious to hold on, while others of more means were anxious to be owners in fee simple. The Doctor advocated the idea of actual sale to bona fide settlers. His opponent. Craven P. Hester, was in favor of leasing for ninety-nine years, as had been the pol- icy of Ohio with her seminary townships. The Doctor was elected, and the policy which he had advocated before the peo- ple was that adopted by the Legislature, with reference to sem- inary townships both in Monroe and Gibson counties. While it may be true that the lands were put upon the market too soon, and at too low a valuation, yet as compared with the re- HISTORY OF INDIANA UNIVERSITY. 467 suit ill Ohio it was a success. Other instances might be given of Dr. Maxwell's prudence and management. During nearly all the time of his connection with the board he was its presi- dent. He was liberal and judicious in his views and zealous and fearless in his advocacy of what he regarded as the best interests of the University. In 1851 he resigned, and with full faith and trust in the religion of his fathers, he died, May 24, 1854.
