ls ,xi 1 3 . Em' -e ' if ji ,ea .Y as ag. t?.ec-custo ,,,.,, Charles Stewart, '4 gg? H'ARLEs STEWART, the oldest living graduate of Q? Miami University, first came to Oxford in Aug- 2b'5i?.2 15l.75' usty 44, being then only fourteen years of age. He was pre- pared for college at the classical school of Dr. john Vanderveer,in Easton, Pa., and was so well equipped that he might have entered the junior class if college rules had permitted, and continued throughout his three years at Miami to maintain his position at the head of his classu Upon Mr. Stewart's graduation, in 1847, President MacMaster made every effort to retain him in Oxford, either as a private student in law or as Professor of Greek. Declining both these propositions because of his youth, .. .I U, CHARLEs STEWART Mr. Stewart at Hrst returned to Easton to teach under Dr. Vanderveer, but soon undertook a course in medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was graduated in 1853. At this point his health failed him, and he found it necessary to take up outdoor work in a large wire mill his father was then operating. Later he succeeded his father in the control of the plant and continued in this business for forty-five years. Since retiring from this active career, he has occupied his time in reading and miscellaneous writing, largely reminis- cent. He has always retained his in- terest in Miami, and on several occasions has remembered her in very substantial ways. Miami honored herself in 1912 in conferring upon him the degree of LL. D.
