Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The College Warden The following narrative was undertaken in order to record a life which was full of stimulus to all, and especially the youth who came in contact with it. The attempt is made to draw the picture from an intimate companion's standpoint, for such was the writer. If the filial affection show too markedly, it will be pardoned, when the intent of the author, to share a glorious example vouchsafed him, is known. This brief sketch is submitted under the title which appeared most suited to its bearer. He lost his personal identity in the exercise of his office. Biographical detail is omitted as much as possible, that alone being introduced which appeared to have a direct bearing on the character picture in hand.

D: Sometime Warden of Racine College From all that has passed in these sad days, from a bitterness I have not deserved, nay, even from these warm hearts whose human sympathy has sustained me in this, my time of trial, I turn myself away. I lift my heart to Him on Whose Almighty Arm I lean, and in Whose mighty power even my weakness is strong, and louder than the din of angry words, nay, because of the prayers that so many have lovingly prayed, I hear the gra cions promise.

Download or read book Memorials of Merton College written by George C. Brodrick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of Merton College: With Biographical Notices of the Wardens and Fellows The present volume consists of two Parts; the first containing a historical sketch of Merton College from its foundation to the middle of the eighteenth century; the second containing short biographical notices of the Wardens and Fellows elected during the reigns preceding that of Queen Anne. The materials for a history of Merton College are tolerably copious, but have yet to be digested into a form accessible to ordinary students. The earliest are title-deeds of College property, and Bursars' rolls detailing current income and expenditure. Both these classes of evidences were ransacked by Anthony Wood, whose researches, though not exhaustive, were so minute as probably to deter later antiquaries from independent enquiry. The 'Liber Ruber, ' compiled in the reign of Edward I, purports to contain abstracts of all the more important title-deeds then in the possession of the College. Transcripts of these, as well as of other documents affecting the College property, are to be found in Ms. volumes left by Kilner, who filled the office of Bursar in the latter part of the last century, as well as in the Appendix to his printed but unpublished 'School of Pythagoras.' Next in order are the various Catalogues of Fellows, hereafter described, the earliest of which dates from the reign of Henry V, and to which are appended notes, in a later hand, of more or less biographical value.

The Bishop of Chester, Dr Jayne, formerly a Scholar of Wadham, now Bishop of the Diocese which Wilkins held, has helped me with information about the short episcopate of his predecessor. For it I am grateful to him, as well for the suggestion or command which led to my first attempt, made four years ago, to write something about Wilkins.

Download or read book All Souls College Classic Reprint written by Charles Grant Robertson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from All Souls College To two kind friends I gladly confess I am under special obligations. The Warden from first to last has done everything in his power to smooth the difficulties of the annalist's task. He has allowed me to importune him in season and out of season nor have even the arduous labours of the vice-chancellorship prevented him from reading the following pages in ms. The last chapter, indeed, could never have been written had it not been for his aid. Would that the result as a whole proved more satisfactorily how much I have profited by his knowledge, criticism, and advice. Prof. Burrows not only put at my disposal his volume on The W orthies of All Souls, but most generously handed over to me all the notes he had made for a second edition. Only those who know how complete a master Prof. Burrows is of everything relating to the history of the College, can understand the value of this assistance. The writer can but hope that some of those who may turn over the pages of this little book may be led to increase their knowledge in the ampler and more sustaining air of Prof. Burrows' Magnum Opus. Yet gratitude must not be permitted to shift the burden of the written word. For any statement made, or opinion expressed, the author is alone responsible.

It was thought right by the 'very wise and careful persons who were engaged in building the College and setting it on foot, to organise a Sustentation Fund, and the object was that the charges having been calcu lated to carry on the College when filled with 100 members, it was naturally supposed that with 30 members to start with there would be a deficit and a loss. But from that Sustentation Fund not a penny, I believe, has ever been drawn, and the money which was then collected for that purpose now stands before you, by the consent of its givers, in the shape of bricks and mortar.* (hear, hear.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from That Affair at St. Peter's For thirty years my father had been senior warden of St. Peter's and when I was a boy of nineteen he died. After finishing college and taking a run around Europe, I came back to Hollywood as an assistant in the National Bank. I always liked the little town, for it was near enough to New York to permit me to take in all the worth-while plays and operas and to keep in touch with my college mates. Mother died so long ago that she was only a beautiful memory to me, but Aunt Kate did her best to make up to me for being mother less. When, two years after Father, she left me alone in the old Perrin mansion on Main street, for a time I felt that I could not en dure the solitude of that house, but when I was ready to settle down to work, the place seemed home and I was glad to get back and to keep it open, whether I was there or not, under the care of old Mary, who had served the family for many years.
