Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Under Tops´ls and Tents May the author be pardoned, since this is so personal a book, for the following brief chronology, which he trusts may better enable the reader to understand the situation: He was born in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania, December 20, 1861; removed to Kansas when about ten years of age; was appointed to the United States Naval Academy in September, 1879; was graduated therefrom in June, 1883. Resigned from the Navy in October of the same year. Entered upon the railroad business immediately thereafter. Was ordained Deacon in the Protestant Episcopal Church on February 24, 1889; Priest, November 25, 1890; Missionary in the West and Archdeacon of Kansas until 1895; Archdeacon of Pennsylvania until 1899; since then Rector of Overbrook, Philadelphia, Pa. In 1898 he was appointed captain and chaplain in the First Regiment, Pennsylvania, United States Volunteers, Spanish-American War, and served till the regiment was mustered out of the United States service. He is, therefore, one of the few men in the United States who have served both in the Army and Navy, to say nothing of the Church and the Railroad. In The Recollections of a Missionary in the Great West will be found some accounts of his experiences on the plains.
