A similar school for girls was established in 1869, by means ol' a 335,000 legacy from the Rev. Williain Montague Ferry ol' Grand Haven, Michigan, and it was named, in his honor, Ferry Hall. . ln 1870, the Lake Forest Hotel and lVlanuliacturing Company bought over 300 acres ol the endowment lands and erected on the lake shore a grand hotel six stories high. which was litted out in a most complete manner. Alter conducting this hotel at a contin- ual loss lior live years, the company agreed to cancel its indebtedness by making over the hotel, with its twelve acres of park, to the University. This transler gave to the trustees a spacious building and the long deferred college was organized. The Rev. Robert W. Patterson, D.D., ol the Second Presbyterian church in Chicago, was brought to the college as its hrst President in 1875, and served until 1878, when Proliessor John H. Hewitt succeeded him as acting-President, and so continued until Commencement of 1878. Un September 7. 1876, the lirst class entered Lake Forest College, containing eight young men and lour young women. At that time there was no collegiate institution ol' high grade, not under State control, in which a woman could obtain an education such as men were olliered. Lake Forest College was intended to supply this lack, accepting a condition of things already created by nature, and looking forward to better results lor both men and women in an education pursued together. The college building was entirely destroyed by tire in 1887, but 5100000 was speed- ily raised lor a new building, and in 1878, the Rev. Daniel S. Gregory, D.D., of Wooster The First College Building
