Excerpt from Biographical Catalogue of Lafayette College, 1832-1912 In the belief that the history of the College as such should be made a separate publication, nothing has been attempted in that matter. Lists of those who have been connected with the College as Trustees and members of the Faculty, with the dates of their service, have been included; also lists of those upon whom the College has conferred hono rary degrees and of those who have done graduate work in the College. But biographies have been given only of those who have been regularly enrolled as students of the College. These biographies have been presented in the briefest form possible on account of the limited space, and owing to lack of information some are very meager or wholly wanting. But great pains have been taken to secure the fullest and most accurate record possible without further delay. The compiler desires to make thankful acknowledgment of the great help he 'has received from the remarkably full and excellent record made by Prof. Coffin in his Men of Lafayette concerning those who had been connected with the College previous to 1891. But for his painstaking labors in that former period it is probable much that we now have would have been lost beyond recovery.
