Excerpt from Further Statement of Facts and Circumstances Connected With the Removal of the Author From the Presidency of Kenyon College: In Answer to the Reply of Trustees, Etc The following statement drawn up, and originally designed, as a letter to a friend, is now respectfully communicated to the patrons and friends of Kenyon College, and of education generally, as well as to the friends of the writer, and to all, in every situation and relation, who may have read the pamphlet to which it is an answer. The position of the writer is a very painful one, but, so far as he can see, unavoidable. Thrown before the public, by the injustice and cruelty of a corporate body, acting with the countenance and co-operation of a high public functionary, in direct violation of pledged faith, he was compelled to vindicate himself in a temperate but firm appeal; and he has been met in reply, with scarcely any regard for the real merits of the case, by a virulent and needless personal attack upon his name and character. To that attack he now replies, and should it be repeated, he sees no alternative but to pursue the course he has laid down for himself until it is decided beyond appeal, whether there is, or can be, under the constitutional forms of this enlightened age and country, a vested right to do to wrong, or an immunity superior to moral obligation. But it is not merely as a matter of private and personal grievance, that this subject is now presented. Questions of much higher import are involved in it.
