THE 1909 INDEX VOLUME XXXIX Charles Anthony Goessmann T WAS June thirteenth, eighteen hundred and twenty-seven. Europe was in the midst of a period of keenest intellectual activity. The social, commercial, and scientific world was rapidly evolving new ways of thinking and living. The National Guard of France was disbanded in this year, Germany having driven Napoleon, the Scourge of Europe, from her borders fourteen years before. In this year Pestalozzi died, after bringing universal reform into the methods of teaching youth. Liebig, in the little town of Giessen, in 1824, had established, against strong opposition, the laboratory method of teaching. In dear old Gottingen, Friedrich Wohler had proven the nonexistence of that ignis fatuus of centuries of fruitless study and research, the force of life. And this discovery alone, published in 1828, served to turn the entire world of thought into new channels. These were stirring times, and this was a noble year in which to be born. One born in this year the Germans might well designate as woblgeboren. And so, in Naumburg in Hesse-Cassel, on the above-named day, was Karl Anton Goessmann woblgeboren. The story of his life should become familiar to every M. A. C. man, even to the newest. In this small space, however, merely the main facts may be presented, and even the} ' only in the most compressed form. After taking a high school course (German gymnasium) at Fritzlar, he went to study with Friedr ich Wohler in Gottingen. On graduating as Doctor of Philos- ophy there in 1853, he served as privat dozent, and was promoted to be professor extraordinarius.
