Excerpt from The Pennsylvania College Book, 1832-1882 It had been my intention to here acknowledge by name those to whom I am under special obligations for favors rendered during the preparation and publishing of this volume; but the list numbers so many hundred names that I must content myself by testifying that in the numerous inquiries for information on various points among pres ent and former students and friends of the institution, I have met with the greatest courtesy and willingness to give time and labor to the obtaining and communicating of the requested information. I here record what I have said to each privately, my sincere thanks to each one who has thus assisted in making so nearly complete the per sonal records contained in these pages. Photographs have been used in illustrating this work, because we thus secure correct portraits and accurate Views of buildings and grounds. The photographer has given us admirable work.
