Excerpt from A Beautiful Life and Its Associations
It is not that I have anything to relate which you, my friends and fellow-students, do not already know; but the necessity for gathering together a little data, personal and otherwise, concerning those of whom I write, seemed impressed upon me. When I began the work, all of the presidents of the College were living, with one exception. In the short two years intervening, three of them have passed away. I have letters from each of them. The importance of time is shown in this instance, as it has been in many others.
