Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 9: October, 1934 The Chesters were Puritans of New England, people of strong bodies, vigorous minds and marked Spiritual gifts. The Chapters dealing with Dr. Chester's early life at Mount Holly, Arkansas, where he was born in 1851, present a vivid picture of the pioneer days in that state when there were few luxuries and life was strenuous; slavery as it existed then is shown at its best; war incidents are related, and the trials of Reconstruction days are referred to in a calm and impartial manner. College life at Washington College (lexington, Vir ginia) is portrayed' and the young student's association with General Robert E. Lee and his family is set forth in a most interesting way. Then hampden-sydney, as it was in the early seventies, receives the attention it deserves. The great worthies of the Seminary faculty are mentioned and just estimates of them are made. To the readers of the record this portion of the book will probably be most interesting. Even Walker Crawley is not forgotten, though the reference to this unique person is brief and not perhaps as laudatory as Walker would have wished it to be. It Should be stated, however, that the names of Hampden Sydney men are found all through the volume; for the contribution of the College to the work of missions has been great, and the Secretary came in contact with many of them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Record of the Hampden-Sydney Alumni Association, Vol. 9: July, 1915 In fact, the condition of the gift is that the college will make this addition to the building. The library at present contains some thirty thousand volumes and pamphlets, many of. Them being of great value, but the great need is for other books which will supply the material needed for research work. The library is used more and more each year, from the beginning of the session to the close. A visitor during library hours will be astonished to see the great number of students working there. Some are there for the purpose of looking up assignments made by the professors, others for the independent preparation of speeches or articles for the various college publications. Still others use the library more or less as a study hall. Nothing is more greatly needed than better library facilities. One of the reasons which has prevented the college from being on the accredited list of American Universities and Colleges has been due to the fact that these facilities at hampden-sydney have not met the standard required by the Association. The hours which the library will be kept open will also be increased. It is believed that with this addition to the building, and after the purchase of these volumes, made possible by the gift of from the General Education Board, this particular disability will be removed.

Mary transferred to hampden-sydney. The letter dated December 14, 1789, and addressed to William Short, shows to what lengths the early trustees went in order to insure the stability of the youthful institution! Our current efforts to procure funds are strenuous, but we assure our good friends in Williamsburg that we no longer have designs on them.

Mr. Bradshaw draws an excellent picture of the social life in the county and he deals also with the political and educational.

The result is that he either puts an additional burden on his parents, who may be making a great effort to give him an education, or else he leaves college in debt to his fraternity, thus impairing his sense of obligation and putting an additional charge on those who do pay their dues and contribute their part to the social demands made on the chapter. What would seem to be of greater importance to the fraternity itself is the fact that a number of boys whose breeding, ability, and promise would make them most desirable and congenial fraternity men and reflect credit on the fraternity, have to decline because they cannot afford the cost.

In his preface, the author states as his purpose the rescue of the great man from comparative Obscurity. Impartial readers will unanimously agree that he has succeeded in his laudable endeavor. With the skill of a trained lawyer he has traced his ancestor's career with consummate patience; has made wide and diligent search, and has buttressed all his statements by documentary evidence culminating in proof. He makes plain Col. Cary's influence in shaping the course of events in Vir ginia and in directing the current of legislative procedure in the House of Burgesses, in the Conventions, and in the General Assembly. We have brought before us a Vigorous, active, and forceful man always striving to the full limit of his great physical and mental powers to promote the interests of the State and its people. Not an orator, not a politician, Col. Cary is shown to have been a man of unusual executive ability, of tireless energy, of physical and moral courage of a high order, and of unblemished Character - just the sort of man who, because Of his private life and public record, may well be called a wheel-horse. He who has read this book carefully will find that he not only has acquired a clear-cut picture of a gentleman of the Olden time but has also gained a connected and logical outline of the important and outstanding events of Virginia's political history in the late Colonial and Revolutionary periods; for in these events the Colonel was a moving spirit and prominent figure.
