Books

The Dartmouth College Case and Private Corporations. Chancellor Kent, writing in 1826, thus expressed himself concerning the Dartmouth College case: "It contains one of the most full and elaborate expositions of the constitutional sanctity of contracts to be met with in any of the reports. The decision in that case did more than any other single act proceeding from the authority of the United States to throw .an impregnable barrier around all rights and franchises derived from the grant of government and to give solidity and inviolability to the literary, charitable, religious and commercial institutions of our country."

Sixteenth Annual Commencement Of The University Of Wooster Held In Gymnasia Hall

Commencement Programs

This document acts as a supplement to the main commencement program of 1886. Given its humorous nature, it is safe to assume that it was written by the graduating class themselves.

There is a section called 'Specialities by Faculty and Seniors', which, in a way, gives an interesting insight into the relationship between the faculty and the graduating class. Indicated by the small text on …

Rural Poems, Gershom Wiborn

Genesee Valley Historical Reprints

This slim little volume of eight poems by Gershom Wiborn of Victor, NY, bears no imprint regarding publisher or place, just a date (1886), which seems to be long after at least some of the verses were penned . A couple of the poems had been previously published in the Pontiac Jacksonian and Street and Smiths Weekly.

Why Rural Poems? In several, one can hear the longing in Wiborn's voice for the agrarian life of yore, before the great American forests were felled, before the natives were pushed out. In the poem "The Aged Indian of the Genesee," …
