Page i6 A Short Sketch m T is always pleasant to look back at the foun¬ dation and beginning of any institution, and to notice its growth and improvements. Rev. A. P. Saunders, then a Presbyterian missionary in Greece, first conceived the idea of his great undertaking. He had been stricken down by sickness, and as he lay thus, probably thinking of his destiny, and the fate of his wife and her little child, the thought came into his kind heart to found an institution that could care for the children of deceased ministers and missionaries. For some years he gave all of his time and attention to gathering means and arranging plans. It was finally in the year 1893 that he accomplished his undertaking. After he had provided for the maintenance of those gath¬ ered together, he knew of no better way of educating them than founding an institution in their midst capable of QUIPS AND QUIBBLES of the College giving them a good education. So in the fall of that year the institution, known as Fredericksburg Collegiate Institute, was opened. The opening was encouraging, and in the spring the pupils were temporarily moved while an addition was made to the building which greatly improved the accommodations. For the first two years Dr. Saunders was the president, and was in reality so during the three years following. Whatever glory is given to those who follow ought not to be compared with the praise and the admiration of the originator. It was he who first conceived the idea, who gave his time and substance, and placed the institution on a firm footing. We do not mean to lessen the praise and the faithfulness of his successors, but to Dr. Saunders is due the glory of founding our College, and what it has accomplished, ami will accomplish, will reflect glory on him.
