Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Celebration on the Sixtieth Anniversary of the Foundation of Middlebury College: Addresses and a Poem, on Laying the Corner Stone of a New Edifice Ladies and Gentlemen - We have assembled to perform an interesting ceremony; to lay the corner stone of a new edifice for Middlebury College. The occasion may not seem to call for any special observance, because such events are by no means uncommon in our country at the present time; churches, hospitals, literary institutions, or public edifices of some kind are so frequently erected, that they attract no particular attention. But however common in the wide world around, they have not been frequent with us, and we have therefore deemed it proper to celebrate the occasion with a little ceremony and appropriate literary exercises. This is the fourth time that such an event has occurred in the history of our Institution, but the present is invested with more than usual interest from a very pleasing coincidence: the legislative act creating Middlebury College, and the Charter, investing it with rights, powers and privileges, bear date November 1,1800, and therefore our College is just three-score years old to-day. Is it not fitting, then, that we should commemmorate this anniversary of Alma Mater, who is still so full of vigor, elasticity and hope, that she feels all the buoyancy of youth, prepares to commence life anew, and to lay foundations for many years to come?
