Book Description
Excerpt from Hiram College and Western Reserve Eclectic Institute: Fifty Years of History, 1850-1900 There are some things which can be stated in a Preface or Introduction better than in the body of a book. Some personal explanations can be made which would be altogether out of place anywhere else. In the preface the author of a volume or treatise mounts his throne and asserts his dictum. It should be known to all that the author whose name ap pears on the title page of this volume was not the first in the Hiram fellowship to gather material, to outline its use, and to enter upon the writing of a Hiram history. Mainly to the Faculty of Hiram College, and especially to Professor A. C. Pierson who was selected by them, is the credit due for the idea which has been expanded into the present vol ume. To the great sorrow of a large circle of friends and co-laborers in behalf of Hiram College and higher educa tion, Prof. Pierson died suddenly at the begnning of his work, leaving for another hand to do what it was hoped he would be able to perform. He had gathered considerable material and had outlined his plan of work, and had written a little more than one chapter. Substantially he completed the first chapter of the history, and with slight change that chapter stands as he wrote it and as a memoral of high per sonal regard and of the high esteem in which he was held by his associates in the Faculty and the students and friends of Hiram College. In his foreview of University and its Sons, Dr. John Eaton, himself an eminent educator, says: How often do both the faculty and students of a genera tion fail to gain the inspiration justly theirs, by reason of the lack of knowledge of the sacrifices and triumphs of those who have gone before them. How many fail to bestow their wealth in aid of this instruction, and how many sonsfail to take advantage of it because they, or those advising them, do not know what those receiving it have thereby gained to themselves, or what they have contributed to the uplifting of mankind and the advancement of civilization. To furnish this knowledge of what Hiram College has ac complished in fifty years in material equipment, and in the uplift of mankind is the purpose of this history. The power of a college is not in what it promises to do but in what it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
