Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from History of the College of New Jersey, Vol. 1: From Its Origin in 1746 to the Commencement of 1854 To many of the graduates, too, it may be a matter of interest to have an authentic account of the views and plans of the Trustees in different periods of the history of the College; and for them numerous extracts are given from the Minutes of the Board and from other documents. To meet these different views, the writer has adopted the plan of having the work printed with two different sets of type, in the smaller of which most of the extracts from minutes and public records will be printed. The rest of the work will be in larger type, and of itself will form a narrative suited to the class of readers first spoken of. Another object aimed at in giving the official statements is to secure their preservation in case the volumes containing them should be lost or destroyed. The citations from the College records are in some cases followed by an expression of the writer´s own views in reference to the matters therein mentioned. Had the writer´s health permitted it, he would have devoted some time to a thorough revision of this work, omitting some parts and rewriting others, in the hope of thereby making the entire work more acceptable to the reader; but, his age and health forbidding this, it must go to the press as it is. He is not, however, without hope that, whatever may be its defects, he has clearly shown that it was the design of the founders of the College, and of their successors in office, to make the institution one devoted to the upbuilding of the Redeemer´s kingdom, by promoting the advancement of piety and learning in happy union.
