Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Jubilee of Acadia College and Memorial Exercises The Committee entrusted with the publication of the proceedings at the celebration of the Jubilee of Acadia College and the memorial exercises recently held in relation to the decease of the Rev. E. A. Crawley, D.D., D.C.L., deem it advisable to make only very brief remark by way of preface. As the close of the first half century of Acadia´s history approached, the Governors of the College suggested to the Baptist Convention of the Maritime Provinces the desirability of appropriately marking the completion of that period by the gathering together of the friends of the College at Wolfville, and by such exercises as might be deemed in accord with that occasion. The Convention readily adopted the proposal, and, upon the invitation of the Governors, it was determined to hold the Convention of 1888 at Wolfville, immediately preceding the Jubilee. The business of the Convention was brought to a close on the afternoon of Tuesday, August 28, and that evening and the following day were entirely devoted to the Jubilee celebration. Respecting the general character of the exercises a brief extract from the Year Book of 1888, may be in place: "These Jubilee meetings were throughout at once an exhibition of the deep interest of Acadia´s constituency in her welfare, and the occasion for pledging anew all the energies of the Denomination to meet the enlarging requirements which will ever be made as the country advances. "Two things were equally apparent in these solemnities, - the entire absence of the slightest desire to combine with other educational institutions, and, at the same time, the strongest and most determined purpose to keep Acadia forever abreast of the wants of the time.
