Officers of Holxirf Col lege. Honorarii Chancellor, 1596-97. The Rt. Rev. Nelson Somerville Rultsox, D.D. 'i( C-CI (I l CC I lor, 1594-7. Tlie Rev. Charles Frederick Hoffman, D.D., LL.D. At a meeting of the Faculty of Hobart College, held March 22, 1S97. the following resolution was adopted : The Faculty of Hobart College desire to express their grateful recognition of the services which Dr. Charles Frederick Hoffman, late Trustee and Vice-Chancellor of the College, ren- dered to the cause of Church Education through the Association of which he was the Presi- dent. an Association whose objects were of the most practical and efficient character and were supported by his untiring efforts and the generous and judicious use of the wealth which he expended as the good steward. In particular, the Faculty desire to record their gratitude for the profound interest he took in the welfare of the College in his latest moments, which were occupied with far-reaching and enlightened plans for its establishment 011 a permanent and solid basis both educationally and financially. At a meeting of the Faculty of Hobart College, held September 27, 1897, the following resolution was adopted : Kfsofrrd, That the Faculty deplore in the death of bishop Rulison the loss of a personal influence long applied to furthering the ends of education. We are well aware of his many years of valued service to a sister College ; in particular, however, the Faculty desire to record their sense of gratitude for the graceful and felicitious manner in which he discharged the office of Honorary Chancellor of this College, and contributed by his distinguished presence to the interest of the last Commencement and by his thoughtful address to the value of its exercises. They cannot forget the pathetic circumstance that this was ltishop Rulison’s last appearance in public, and that his time and energy were freely bestowed upon us when the expenditure of both entailed a serious sacrifice. We take this as a sample of the unsparing manner in which he spent himself in his ministry and his episcopate.
