Through the death of Calvin Durand, October 31st, IQII, Lake Forest College lost a good friend. He had always been much interested in student affairs and had helped various administrations of the college in many ways throughout his long resi-1 dence in the town. Hr. Durand was one of the generation now passing so rapidly to whose strong courage through the battles, privation and misery of the civil war, and energetic faith in the country during the trying period of the Reconstruction, suc- ceeding generations owe so much. He was l'orn at Clintonville, X. Y., Klay 7th, 1840. At the age of twenty he came out to Chicago to enter the employment of his brothers. Those were stirring times in the Lomparatively little city. Soon the vv ar broke out and Klr. Durand when Lincoln's call for volunteers was posted in, the streets placed his name fourth upon the famous Board of Trade Battery. He served in the army of the Cumberland until he was captured near Atlanta, Ga.. in the summer of 1804. He was a prisoner till the close of the war at tlie Andersoziville, Charleston, Florence and Libby prisons. At the close of tle war lie returned to Chicago and there, with his brothers, founded the firm now kiiown as Durand-Kasper Co. Mr. Durand moved with his family to Lake Forest in 1875. He had always been prominent in civic affairs, serving as mayor of Lake Forest, 18111-'05, when he inaugurated the policy of public improve- ment that makes the town so notable among those of the North Shore. The college bears a permanent memorial to his name in the Durand Commons completed in 14108. ,zo
