Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Inauguration of James McCosh, D. D., LL. D : As President of the College of New Jersey, Princeton; October 27, 1868 At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the College of New Jersey, at Princeton, April 29th, 1868, the Reverend James McCosh, D.D., LL.D., Professor of Logic and Metaphysics in Queen´s College, Belfast, Ireland, was unanimously chosen to the office of President of the College, made vacant by the resignation of the Reverend Dr. Maclean, and a committee was appointed to correspond with Dr. McCosli, and inform him of his election. On his acceptance of the office, a committee was appointed to make arrangements for the inauguration. The event, at the same time, called forth unusual marks of public favor on both sides of the Atlantic. In Scotland, as well as Ireland, distinguished assemblies were gathered in honor of the President-elect, to express to him their good wishes at parting. In our own country, the sister Colleges of Harvard, Brown, and Jefferson, conferred upon him their highest academic degrees; and on his arrival at Princeton, October 20th, he was met at the station by the faculties and students of the College and Theological Seminary, welcomed with hearty cheers, and escorted to the President´s house, from the porch of which he made a short address to the students, which was warmly applauded.
