CQRQD. Qi. 3. Balbwin. EV. C. I. BALDVVIN, the loved and honored pastor of the Granville Baptist Church, was born at Charleston, N. Y., August 1oth, 1841. At the age of fourteen, while re- siding in Troy, N. Y., he became converted and joined the First Baptist Church, of which his father was then pastor. In the Fall of I859, he entered Madison University, but left during his Junior year to enter the army. Here he served with 'distinction as Lieutenant Adjutant of the 157th Regular New York Volunteers, and on the staff of Brigadier-General Potter till the close of the war. Wliile in service he received the rank of Major from the Governor of New York. In 1868, he graduated from Rochester Theological Seminary, and was ordained the same year at Chelsea, Mass., where he was pastor of the First Baptist Church until 1872. He then visited Europe, and upon his return became pastor of the First Baptist Church, Rochester, N. Y., where he remained until coming to Granville in 1886. While Dr. Baldwin has been pastor of the church in Granville, he has exercised a marvelous influence over the young men and women attending the various schools of the village. His profound scholarship and masterly use of lan- guage make each sermon a literary as well as a spiritual edification, and it is particularly fortunate that students, gathered from every part of the country, have the opportunity of hearing the Gospel preached with such eloquence and power. He is also identified with the interests of the col- lege, being a member of the Board of Trustees, of which he is Secretary. In fine, Dr. Baldwin is esteemed by all as a friend manifesting consideration for all classes and evincing the highest purity of motive, whose mind and efforts are consecrated to furthering the purest ideals in intellect and religion. 21
