HAMIL TON COLLEGE 7 jklajfaaen. gnsspb iiusmell igainlep, ZLSLE. OLDIER, editor, reformer, statesman, genial compan- -- ion, and loyal friend-great in each and greatest in the V ' A combination of these rare elements-honoring his Alma Mater as she proudly owns him her son, Sen- ' 1' - 5 ator Hawley deserves the tribute which the Hamilton- ian honors itself in giving. Steadfast and loyal public servants Hamilton likes to think that she sends out, and there are facts to justify her faith. Among the most shining examples of her sons is Senator Hawley. 8 Born at Stewartsville, North Carolina, Qctober 31, 1826, of English-Scotch lineage, he removed with his parents to Connecti- cut, his ancestral state, eleven years later. At Cazenovia Seminary he prepared for Hamilton, from which he graduated in 1847, with especially good record in debate and other speaking. His law-practice began three years later in Hartford, Connecticut. Those were stirring anti-slavery days, which called out the sturdy fighting qualities of this college man. First in the Free Soil Party, and then in the Republican, the first meeting in Connecti- cut for the organization of which was held at his call and in his ofiice, he did valiant service. ln the interest of this cause he became, in 1857, editor of the Haryana' Evening Press. When the first call for troops followed the firing upon Sumter, he was the first volunteer in the State, at the head ofa company which he had armed with rifles personally ordered by him. Dur- ing the war his career was distinguished and his promotion rapid. At its close he was chosen Governor of his State, of which he has since remained the most distinguished among many notable citizens. Re-entering journalism as editor of the Harzfara' Coaranf, he was soon. called upon to enter Congress, where he served three terms in the lower House before he was elected in 1881 to the Senate, of which he has been since then continuously a member. Among many important services were his opposition to paper mon- -ey, and his vigorous promotion of civil service reform legislation. Busy as his life has been, Commencement has found him regu- larly climbing the old beloved Hill, and rejoicing in the growing evidences of Hamilton's prosperity. That the evening shadows may lengthen slowly upon his life, and that the sunset splendors 'may be worthy of the day, every son of Hamilton devoutly prays. b
