R. McIlwaine and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-19 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Address of H. R. McIlwaine, Ph. D., State Librarian, Delivered at the College of William and Mary Upon the Dedication of the New Library Building, May 13, 1909 On February 8, 1859, the College caught fire, and in the flames which consumed the building the collection of one hundred and fifty years perished almost completely, including the commission to General Washington. In a year's time the College was again restored, and the new Library started with about volumes obtained partly by purchase and partly by the donations of public spirited individuals. But the war for Southern independence soon breaking out, this number was not largely increased. In 1862 the main building was set on fire by Federal troops, but the books in the Library and the six portraits in the Faculty room had been removed fortunately to the President's house and were preserved. After the restoration of the main building in 1867 the Library was located in the south wing adjoining the chapel and separated from it by folding doors, thus enabling the two to form one hall on public occasions In 1881 the College suspended work for want of funds, and, when it started again in 1888, under-the auspices of the Legislature, the collection did not exceed volumes exclusive of pamphlets. It then began to grow quite rapidly, and in 1905 the collection amounted to about volumes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the time of the American Revolution, the College of William and Mary was already into its eighth decade as the academic source of what the new nation would become and how it would relate to the larger world. Its land had been surveyed by George Washington, and its first honorary degree had been given to Ben Franklin. It would go on to educate two signers of the Declaration of Independence, three American presidents, and three justices of the Supreme Court. Chartered by British royalty in 1693, the college retains that connection to its roots into the 21st century. Remarkably through history, the College of William and Mary was, and remains, a public university¿one of 16 in the Commonwealth of Virginia. At a time in American history when the 18th-century thought and practice of Thomas Jefferson has become part of the contemporary conversation, the college from which he graduated in 1762 continues to pursue his simple notion that ¿worth and genius [be] sought from every condition of life.¿

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gallery of Portraits, Vol. 2: With Memoirs Shortly after the accession of William and Mary, Somers was appointed solicitor-general, and received the honour of knighthood. Bishop Burnet says, that in the warm debates which took place in Parliament on the bill respecting the recognition of the King and Queen, and the validity of the new settlement of the government, it was strongly objected by the Tories that the convention, not being summoned by the King's writ, had no legal sanction; and that Somers distinguished himself by the spirited and able manner in which he answered the objection. He spoke, says Burnet, with such zeal and such an ascendant of authority that none were prepared to answer it; so that the bill passed without more opposition. This was a great service done in a very critical time, and contributed not a little to raise Somers's character.
