Hap- pily, it was not his lot to find that a prophet is not Without honor save in his own country. The people of the state and the students have striven to show their gratitude to him in man Y ways, but the University will remain his grandest monument. writ' I '- - MII, ' -...,.,,Lgvm Y h L24 V K , , V f . wnK'8? if , , ,.f- ,vgmlg ,- . 5 I I i , . .1idf1'Ff,l?!5.

The account of how he entered upon the work reads like the call of some Old Testament seer. He had always been interested in the infant Institution which had scarcely more than a paper existence, unless a load of debt be more, and one day as he was at his work there came a man to him who said, We want you to be a regent of the University. But he answered, L' No, l am not fit, and my business demands all my time.

When he entered upon his office he found every one else ready to give up the struggle in despair, but he saw the future too plainly for that. He turned his attention first to the debts, and they were wiped out. Then he set to work to lay the financial y,..y.Ym i..
