Excerpt from Rutgers '76, Twenty-Five Years After: A Souvenir of the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary of the Graduation From Rutgers College, N. J., Of the Class of 1876; 1876-1901 The natural interest they still have in one another will account for the attempt which is here made to tell, in brief, the story of each man's life, and to indicate, so far as possible, his present whereabouts and employment. The portraits which accompany the biographical sketches are for the most part from recent photographs, and fairly represent the men of the class as they appear to-day. That of Governor Voorhees is from a cut which has been kindly furnished us by the magazine Success, in which appeared recently an interesting article on that subject from the pen of our distinguished classmate. For the pictures of the college buildings we are indebted to Mr. Irving 5. Upson, and for those of our old pro fessors to members of their families.

The well-educated daughter of a minister, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911) was introduced to writing at a young age, as both her mother and father were published writers. In 1868 she published her first major novel, The Gates Ajar. An international success, the novel sold more than six hundred thousand copies, making it one of the best-selling American works of the nineteenth century. Through the next four decades Phelps published hundreds of essays, tales, and poems, which appeared in every major American periodical, while also writing novels, including Beyond the Gates (1883) and The Gates Between (1887). Phelps’s legacy as an important American writer, however, has been hurt by the seeming contradictions between her life and work. For example, she was an ardent advocate for women’s rights both inside and outside marriage, but her stories seem to glorify the sort of extreme self-sacrifice associated with the most conservative domestic ideology. In this collection, the editors seek to restore Phelps’s reputation by bringing together a diverse collection from the entire body of her lifetime of work. From arguments for suffrage to harrowing tales of Reconstruction, these essays, along with short fiction and poetry, provide a new perspective on a major American writer from the later nineteenth century.
