E toir j ®S Tayta ISJnoifoarsflfty The institution, which bears the name of Bishop William Taylor, was foundedat Ft. Wayne, Indiana, in 184h as the Ft. Wayne Female College. It was not until 1847 that its first building was erected. The Hon. ,1. A. C. Huestis served as her first Vice President, until 1848. G. H. Rounds succeeded him. In L849 the Rev. H. C. Nutt presided, but Mr. Huestis, on returning, filled the chair until 1852, being succeeded by S. T. Gillete. who held the office for a few months. During the years 1852-55 the cause was championed by the Rev. S. Brenton, M. I)., who was followed by the Rev. R. D. Robinson, D. D., President from 1855-72. Then the Rev. W. L. Yocum succeeded from 1875-8S, and from 1888-90 the Rev. H. M. Herrick guided her. After the union with the Ft. Wayne Collegiate Institute, in 1852, the institution was made co-edu- cational. In 1890 she was honored with the name of Bishop Taylor, and Rev. C. B. Stemen, M. D.. was elected President. He was followed by the Rev. T. C. Reade. I). D.. L. L, I)., whose remains lie on her present campus. The building was burned at Ft. Wayne, and on duly 31. 1893, she was re-chartered and removed to Upland, where she stands on the Pan Handle R. R. at the highest point between Columbus, O.. and Chicago, III. Dr. Reade dying July 25, 1902, the office of President was vacant for nearly a year and a half, but its responsibilities were borne faithfully by Vice-President John H. Shilling, Ph. D.. fol- lowed by Dean B. W. Avers, Ph. D., until Jan. 13. 1904, when the Rev. Chas. W. Winchester, D. D.. of Buffalo. N. Y.. came to the chair, having been elected Nov. 5. 1903. When Dr. Winchester re- signed his position the Rev. Dr. Archibald was chosen her Acting President, who remained such for a few months, until the now Dr. Monroe Yavhinger was elected to the chair in 1908. Under his steady hand the clouds are passing away and beams of the sun are shining, which are the earnest of the glo- rious noon-day prosperity of the near future.
