I »r. M Quillen was the founder of the school. He labored unceasingly for its proper establishment, and then, through the remaining years of his life, faithfully devoted himself to its development Practice, comfort, health and finally life were sacrificed in order that the school which he loved might become a temple of knowldedge worthy of the respect of ail men.

He served the institution actively 2S lor six years, and then continued in the honorary position ol ••Emeritus until his death, in September, 1891. He proved himself a competent and faithful teacher, and his love for the institution and devotion to its interests were manifested in a multitude of ways. During its existence two changes ot location have been made necessary by the growth of the college. Upon its establishment it was located at the northwest corner ol Tenth and Arch Streets. There It remained until 1887, when it removed to a new and larger building on Cherry Street, below Eighteenth. Outgrowing these quarters in the course nt eight years, it was decided to purchase ground in a new locality and erect a large and commodious building, adapted solely to its own educational purposes. In 1896 .1 suitable location was lound at Eighteenth, Button-wood arid Hamilton Streets, and, after the preparation of satisfactory plans, ground was broken and the erection of the building begun.
