tion of the founding of the University performed laborious
and meritorious services in arranging thereof, and

the correspondence and arranging the details of the cele-
bration, which he performed with most commendable tact and
ability;

Faculty Committee, and especially to Dr. Church, their earn-
est appreciation of the services which the Committee thus
