K5-git. Qohnis ollege T. JOHN'S COLLEGE, at Annapolis, the alma mafeff of so many of Maryland's most noted and honored sons, is charmingly situated on the banks of the Severn River, a few miles from the Chesepeake Bay. Nothing in the country sur- passes the picturesque beauty of its situation. Facing College Avenue are McDowell Hall, the cen- tral building, with Pinkney Hall, named after Williani Pinkney, a distinguished alumnus, and the residence of the president and vice-president on the left, and Hum- phreys Hall and two buildings which professors occupy on the right. The campus, which slopes toward the avenue, embraces about twenty acres. The front lawn is shaded by large, handsome maples, lindens, poplars and other trees. Nearly in front of Pinkney Hall is a gigantic poplar tree, fresh-looking and green, with ivy climbing up around its old boughs, which is supposed to be older than even the ancient city of Annapolis. The first treaty with the Indians is said to have been signed under its shade. Nearly every side of Pinkney Hall is covered with ivy, and the same vine is making its way over the other buildings, which gives them a venerable a11d digni- fied appearance. McDowell Hall, tl1e central building, is four stories high, and in it are recitation rooms and offices. Cn the first floor is a large graduation hall, with a gallery above, upon which are hung shields with Latin and other inscriptions giving the names of the members of each graduating class. A curious old belfry surmounts the structure, and a common cord, by which the bell is rung, passes through the various floors. Everything about the old house carries one back to days long past. Even after this lapse of time can be seen places in the old hall filled in with bricks where the pillars were to be put out and from which porches were to project. 011 the south side the places left for the pillars were never filled in. Near the eaves are blocks of wood inserted in the bricks, where cornices were to be placed 3 and in the library is a curious collection of rare old theological books from the old King Willia1i1's School. Humphreys Hall is used for the accommodation of the younger boys, and Pinkney Hall is occupied by the more mature college students. The view from the halls is attractive. The Severn River is on the left and in the rear of the ground, the Naval Academy further along on the left, and the town, with the old State House and Governors mansion, in front and on the right. Such is St. John College, whose history forms one of the most interesting chapters in the annals of Maryland. I 4 V NA--V -A-V U- WV A-A , ,N ,,,, ,,,,,,,,,. .,,.......-...9.
