Many years of active duties have come to him since his college days, but his associations with the class show that his student life is not entirely forgotten. His manly character and his ability as a teacher have won for him the highest esteem of all who lcnow him, but to the members of his class he is especially dear, and the many evenings on which they have been entertained in the home of Prof. and Mrs. McDiarmid will never be forgotten. Prof. McDiarmid is a loyal citizen of the United States but this is not the land of his nativity. He is a Canadian by birth and although he has lived for many years in this country, he is still bound by many tender ties to the home land. ln him are combined the best traits of character of both nations. His ancestry and early training furnished those sturdy qualities of character which have ever been Canadafs pride, and his long residence in this country has imbued him with the spirit of progress and activity so characteristic of the American people. 9

Near the quaint little town of Morpeth, on the north shore of Lake Erie, was the birthplace and early home of Hugh McDiarmid. His boyhood years were spent upon his father's farm. He attended school during the winter-months and at length became qualihed to teach. Five years were spent in this work. In 1860, when twenty years of age, he united with the Church of Christ and his services were soon sought as a public speaker. Four years later the young preach- er entered Bethany College, where his ability as a student was soon manifested to all. He was graduated with honors in the class of '67, After leaving school, his first pastorate was at Barnesville, Ohio, which now became his home for two years. lt was during this time that Mr. McDiarmid was married to Miss Mary Campbell, of Morpeth, Ont., who has ever since been the sharer of his labors and joys. Upon leaving Barnesville he went to Kentucky, where five years were spent in preaching and teaching. ln 1875 Mr. McDiarmid's services were sought for the evangelistic field in central Ontario. This work was carried on for eight years, Toronto being his home. During these years many churches were established in this region as a result of his labors. He also edited the Christian Sentinel, a religious monthly published at Toronto. Through the columns of this paper he became endeared to the people throughout all Ontario. But there was a larger work awaiting him, and in 1883 he was called to Cincinnati by Isaac Errett to assist in the work of editing the Christian Standard. Here a period of nine years was spent at the close of which he was chosen president of Bethany College.. During the time of his presidency the number of students in attendance was larger than that of any other period of equal length in the history of the collegeg the same is true of the number of students graduated. ln 1896 he was called to the chair of Church History and New Testament Doctrine in Hiram College, a position which he still holds. Prof. McDiarmid's domestic relations have been most pleasant and thehos- pitality of his home is known to all. The family consists of three sons and two daughters. Of the sons, one is a lawyer in Cincinnati, one is a teacher at More- head, Ky., and one is studying medicine at Ann Arbor. One daughter, Mrs. J. VV. Ritchey, lives in Cincinnati and the other resides with her parents in Hiram. Prof. McDiarmid's chief work for some years has been in the class room, but as a preacher of the gospel he has also gained a wide reputation. His power lies preeminently in the exposition of the Scriptures and his ministry has always resulted in the building up of the church. At the same time his clear, simple declaration of the truth has rendered his work effectual in the evangelistic field. His last protracted meeting was held in Bethany when about thirty of the students accepted the gospel invitation. During his stay in Hiram Prof. McDiarmid has won a large place in the hearts of students and fellow teachers, and it is the wish of all that the pleasant associations formed here may continue for many years to come.
