The Sigma Chi fraternity was founded at Miami University, June 28th, 1855, by Thomas C. Bell, James P. Caldwell, Daniel W. Cooper, William L. Lockwood, Benjamin P. Runkle, Frank H. Scobey and Isaac M. Jordan. They had all been members of Delta Kappa Epsilon, but, owing to want of harmony in the chapter, left and founded a fraternity which they called Sigma Phi, the motto signify- ing a chain of friendship. Sigma Phi met with strong opposition at the hands of the other four fraternities, until finally one of them stole the constitution, which contained the motto, grips, pass-words and signs, indeed all the secrets of the fraternity. Thus died Sigma Phi ; but Sigma Chi was soon in working order to take its place, Sigma Chi suffered gl:eatly during the war, but is at present growing rapidly, being equal in number of chapters to Delta Kappa Epsilon, while probably before this reaches the public she will number thirty-one chapters, thus standing third in the list of fraternities. The next convention of Sigma Chi will be held in Chicago, begin- ing November 14th, 1882. The 8igma Chi, a bi-monthly magazine, devoted to the interests of the iraternity, is published by Theta Chapter, at Gettysburg, Pa. 10
