For founding a college in Virginia to educate and train Indians, so early as 1619, fifteen hundred pounds were raised in England, hj virtue of letters issued by James I. to the bishops. And during this year it was " moved and obtained " by Sir Edwin Sandys, President of the Company in England, that ten thousand acres of land, intended not only for the Indian College, but also to lay " the foundation of a Semi- nary of learning for the English," should be laid off for " the University at Henrico." It was also determined that a hundred men should be sent from England as tenants for this land. Out of the rents, which it was. supposed would be worth five hundred pounds a year, the buildings were to be erected, and the masters supported. Mr. George Thorpe, a gentleman of His Majesty's Privy Chamber, came over to be superin- tendent of the College. In 1621, a subscription of one hundred and

twenty-five pounds was obtained ; and one thousand acres of land, with five servants and an overseer, were allotted by the Company to endow at Charles City, " School," a collegiate school termed the East India . where scholars were to be prepared for admittance into the College at Henrico. On March 22d, 1622, Mr. Thorpe and three hundred and forty of the colonists, including a number of the tenants of the College, were killed by the Indians. This caused the lands to be abandoned, and the establishment of a college to be delayed until that of William and Mary was chartered, which was in the fourth year of the reign of Wil- liam and Mary, a date corresponding under the new style, with the 19tli of February, A. D. 1693. This charter, sent over with Sir Edmund Andros, was granted upon the petition of the General Assembly of the Colony of Virginia, " to the end that the church of Virginia might be furnished with a Seminary of ministers of the Gospel, and that the THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MAEY.

yoiitli miglit be piously educated in good letters and manners, and that the Christian faith might be propagated amongst the "Western Indians, to the glory of Almighty God." The design was to establish a " place of Universal Study, or perpetual College of Divinity, Philosophy, Lan- guages, and other good arts and sciences." The Trustees^ nominated and elected by the General Assembly, to whom the royal license Avas granted, were Francis Nicholson, Lieutenant Governor in the Colonies of Virginia and Maryland, William Cole, Ralph Wormley, William

Byrd, and John Lear, Esquires ; James Blair, John Farnifold, Stephen

Fouace, and Samuel Gray, Clerks ; Thomas Milner, Christopher Robin- son, Charles Scarborough, John Smith, Benjamin Harrison, Miles Cary, Henry Hartwell, William Randolph, and Mathew Page, Gentlemen. "The Assembly was so fond of Governor Nicholson at that time, that they presented him with the sum of three hundred pounds as a testi- mony of their good disposition towards him. But he having an instruc- tion to receive no present from the country, they drew up an address to their Majesties, praying that he miglit have leave to accept it, which was granted, and he gave one half thereof to the College." The Trustees were constituted the body corporate to establish the College, and to appoint Masters or Professors, but were required after the estab- lishment, " to transfer to the President and Masters, or Professors, or their successors, the lands, manors, tenements, rents, services, rec- tories, portions, annuities, pensions, and advowsons of churches, Avith all other inheritances, franchises, possessions, goods, chattels, and per- sonal estate " And in the fifth section of the Charter we find the fol- " lowing : It shall he called and denominated for ever, the College of William and Mary in Virginia, and the President and Masters or Pro- fessors of the said College, shall be a body politic in deed and in name^ It was further provided that after the transfer of the corporate powers, the Trustees should be " the true, sole, and undoubted Visitors and Gov- ernors of the College.^'' " And we give and grant to them, or the major part of them, by these our Letters Patent, a continual succession, as also full and absolute liberty, power, and authority of making and enacting, framing and establishing such and so many rules, laws, statutes, orders, and injunctions for the good and wholesome government of said Col- lege, as to them and their successors shall from time to time, according to their various occasions and circumstances, seem most fit and expe- dient." The Charter confirms to the President and Masters or Professors, " that there shall be a Chancellor of the College ; appoints the reverend

father in God, Henry, by divine permission. Bishop of London," first THE COLLEGE 0? WILLIAM AXD MARY.

Chancellor, and requires that the Visitors and Governors of the College, shall elect a discreet person to this office every seven years. Towards the endowment of the College, William III. and Mary con- tributed one thousand nine hundred and eighty-five pounds fourteen shillings and tenpence, raised out of the quit-rents of the colony, and at pound that time in the hands of William Byrd, Auditor ; one penny a the office of Sur- on all tobacco exported from Virginia and Maryland ; veyor General with all its issues, fees, profits, advantages, conveniences, thou- liberties, places, privileges, and pre-eminences whatsoever ; ten sand acres of land lying on the south side of Blackwater Swamp, and ten thousand acres lying in that neck of land, commonly called Pa- munky neck, between the ft)rks of York River. The Faculty had the right to elect either one of their own body, one " of the Visitors of the College, or one of the batter sort of inhabitants of the Colony," to represent the College in the House of Burgesses.

The first College-building, designed to be a square when completed, was unfinished in 1700. The House of Burgesses, however, met in it until 1705, when, together with library and philosophical apparatus, it " was destroyed by fire. The fire broke out about ten o'clock at night in in a public time. The Governor and all the gentlemen that were town came up to the lamentable spectacle, many getting out of then- beds. But the fire had got such power before it was discovered, and was so fierce, that there was no hope of putting a stop to it, and there- fore no attempts were made to that end." The second building was but owing to the want commenced in the time of Governor Spottswood ; of available means, and the scarcity of workmen, it was not finished until 1723. Now that the College was fully established, the transfer of the cor- porate rights was shortly made to the Faculty, and the Trustees became " The Visitors and Governors of the College of William and Mary in and for Viro'inia." The deed of transfer was drawn by John Randolph ; his trouble, the Faculty voted him. a present of fifty guineas. The orig-

inal instrument is now in the library of the College. It is written upon fourteen beautifully illuminated sheets of parchment. The date of it is the twenty-seventh of February, of the second year of the reign of George the Second, which, under the new style corresponds with the 10th of March, A.D. 1729. The donations conveyed by the charter, are recapitu- lated in the deed of transfer. These, and those received by the Trustees during the interval between the date of the charter and that of the trans-

fer, were both now conveyed to the Faculty. The latter are as follows : " Sundry well-disposed individuals, together gave about two thousand THE COLLEGE OF AVJLLTAM AKD MARY.

Robert Boyle, Esq., in his will, dated July 18th, 1691, directed his executors, "after debts and legacies paid," to dispose of the residue of his personal estate "for such charita-

ble and pious uses as they in their discretion should think fit,"' and made the Right Honorable Richard, Earl of Burlington, Sir Henry Ashurst^ Knight and Baronet, and John Marr, Gentleman, his executors. The executors proved the Will, and agreed to lay out five thousand four hundred pounds in land, and to apply the yearly rent thereof "towards propagating the christian religion amongst infidels. They bought of Sir Samuel Gerrard the Manor of Brafterton, in Yorkshire, England, and determined to grant " a rent charge in perpetuity of ninety pounds per annum" to the Company for propagating the Gospel in New Eng- land, " on condition that the Company should apply forty-five pounds a

3'^ear to the salaries of two ministers to instruct the natives in the christ- ian religion," and forty-five pounds a year to the President and Fellows of Harvard College, in Cambridge, New England, to be paid to two other ministers to teach the christian religion to the natives in or near the College. And they determined that the Manor of Braff'erton, sub- ject to the ninety pounds a year, should be conveyed to the mayor, commonalty, and citizens of London upon trust that the rents and profits thereof should be laid out for the advancement of the christian religion in Virginia, as the Earl of Burlington and the Bishop of London might

direct." But there being delays in the said purchase, sometime in Trinity term, A. D. 1695, Sir Thomas Trevor, Attorney General of His Majesty, Dame Elizabeth Gerrard and Thomas Owen, executors "of Sir

Samuel Gerrard," exhibited their bill in the high court of chancery against the executors of the Hon. Robert,Boyle, Esq., praying that the defend- ants might be decreed to pay the purchase money. The Attorney Gen-

eral, in the same court, prayed that the defendants might go on with the purchase, and be decreed " to settle the rents thereof on such pious uses as were agreed upon." Whereupon, and upon the debate of the

matters, and hearing what was alleged on either side, the court thought fit. THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY. 7

upon the first clay of August, 1 695, to decree " that the defendants should proceed on the said purchase," and that the will of the testator should be executed. In pursuance of this decre ', the Earl of Burlington, and Henry, Lord Bishop of London, agreed under their hands and seals on the 21st day of December, 1697, to bestow the charity in Virginia, arranging that the annual rents, subject to the ninety pounds given to New England, should be paid to the President and Professors of " the College of William and Mary in Virginia," for the purpose of maintain- ing and educating Indian scholars. And that the name of the benefac- tor might not be forgotten, it was directed that the donation should be called " The Charity of the Hon.

The balance of the money was " placed

out at interest." This estate is referred to in the following extracts from the proceedings of the Faculty. January 25th, 1742. Upon complaint of two negroes runaway from " Nottoway," the meeting have desired Mr. Thomas Dawson and John Greeme, and they have agreed to go to

visit the Plantation, to enquire into the matters of fact, and to endeavor to put things to rights. Dec. 29th, 1777. Resolved that two negro fellows and a boy be ordered down from " Nottoway " quarter, to supply the place of hirelings in the College. Resolved that Mr. John Carter

Bursar, be appointed to manage the sale of the " Nottoway " estate, and that he be allowed one per cent, commission on the amount thereof, and his traveling expenses],—a duty laid on liquors by the House of Burgesses in 1726, to be applied to the current expenses of the College, and for founding scholarships,—and a donation of one hundred and fifty pounds from Col. Edward Hill, of Charles City County, for the same purpose.

In 1717, Mrs. Philarity Giles, of Isle of Wight, left in her will, her reversionary interest in from three to four hundred acres of land on the Blackwater, in the same county, to the " Royal College of William and Mary." O THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY.

The annual value of all the duties laid for the benefit of the Col- lege before the Revolution, was about twenty-three hundred pounds. The Trustees, before the Act of Transfer, as the Charter directs,

filled the vacancies in their body caused by death or removal. The

Board was then composed of, James Blair, Rector ; Hon. William Gooch,

Esq., Lieutenant Governor of the Colony ; Robert Carter, of Lancaster ;

William Byrd, of Charles City ; Mann Page, of Gloucester ; Cole Diggs,

of York ; Peter Beverly, of Gloucester ; John Robinson of Spotsylvania,

John Carter, of Charles City ; John Grymes, of Middlesex, and William Randolph, of Henrico, Members of His Majesty's Council in the Col-

ony ; Emanuel Jones, of the Parish of Pitsworth, Gloucester ; Barthol-

omew Yates, of the Parish of Christ's Church, Middlesex ; John Skaife,

of the Parish of Stratton-Major, in King and Queen, clerks ; and Wil- liam Cole, Esq., of the County of Warwick. The Transfer was signed by James Blair and Stephen Fonace, the only surviving members of the original Board of Trustees. Li 1759, a grant was made to the College by the House of Bur- gesses of the proceeds of the tax on peddlers. Before the Revolution, the following donations were made to the College, "for foundations or scholarships:" Robert Carter, of Coroto-

man, fifty pounds ; Mrs. Bray, widow of Capt. Thomas Bray, New Kent,

two hundred pounds ; Mrs. Elizabeth Harrison, of Surrey, three hun-

dred pounds ; the Rev. James Blair, five hundred pounds ; Philip Light- foot Esq., of Sandy Point, five hundred pounds. A gilt cup was pre- sented to the College by Lady Gooch, of England. The Earl of Bur- lington presented a portrait of his brother, the Hon. Robert Boyle. It now hangs in the Blue Room of the College, along with several other interesting portraits. Dr. James Blair, a native of Scotland and an Episcopal clergyman, was the first President of the College. He was appointed to the office > by the charter. At the instance of the Bishop of London he came as a missionary to Virginia, in 1685. He was appointed Commissary, or Representative of the Bishop in the colony, in 1689. He revived the project of establishing a College in Virginia, entertained in 1619, but defeated by the Indian massacre in 1622. With justice he may be

considered the father of William and Mary College ; for his exertions, both in this country and in England, contributed greatly to the success of the enterprise. He died in 1743, after having filled the office of President of the College for half a century. The following extracts from the Proceedings of the Faculty, shed light upon the history of the College before the Revolutionary War : — THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AXD MARY. 9

"Williamsburg, Aug. 10th, 1732.

" Instructions from the President and Masters of William and Mary Col- lege, in Virginia, to John Randolph, Esq., now bound for England.

" I. That you would represent to the Lords of the Treasury and the Commis-sioners of his Majesty's customs, that the revenue of the penny per pound upon Tobacco exported from Virginia and Maryland to the other Plantations, which their late Majesties, King William and Queen

Mary, gave for the support of the said College in the year 1692 (o. s.), is now very much sunk, and yields not above one half of what it yielded at that time ; which sinking of the said revenue we impute to tlie fol- lowing causes. " The oflBcers in the three lower counties of Pennsylvania, and the ofiicers in North Carolina, employed in the collecting the said duty, as we are informed, instead of exacting this said penny in good money, as the act of Parliament directs, let the exporters assessed for paying the penny (pay) in the currency of those counterys, which in North Carolina is little above a quarter part, and in Pennsylvania not above one half, of what is payed in Virginia, which occasions a greater export from those places, and less from Virginia and Maryland. " Whereas, in Virginia there was formerly an ofiicer allowed and maintained m Elizabeth River, from which is the greatest part of the exportation of tobaccos from this country to the Plantations, and like- wise a searcher at the port of Hampton, who had authority to examine and search all vessels bound to the plantations, and these two ofiicers are either sunk, or (which is all one as to the use of them) the ofiices are given to men that live out of their country, and so never reside as to do their duty, Avhich has occasioned vast fi-auds in that trade, that they carry out tobaccos in barrels, entered as beef or pork, or concealed under corn, and hogsheads of tobaccos at weights much less than they really weigh.

" Another great obstruction of that trade is that most of those who follow it trade in small vessels, in which the chief of their lading is wheat, or Indian corn, or beef, or pork, or pipe-staves, to which they could safely add two or three hoo^sheads or a few barrels of Tobacco. 10 THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY.

But as to tins case of Tobaccos, the difficulty upon tliera is that this act of Parliament requii-es a bond with security upon no less penalty than a thousand pounds sterling, that they shall land the same in England or one of the English plantations, and being perhaps utter strangers, or persons in low circumstances, can find no bondsmen that will undertake for such high summs, and so are obfiged to let the exportations of

Tobacco alone, or to run it without paying any duty. " And the New-England men are so bold in their transgressions of the acts of trade (and are suspected of exporting much more than their country consumes, perhaps to European markets), that no ordinary offi- cer on the eastern shore cares to meddle with them. It would require a shallop of paid force to watch the trade of the Bay both from Virginia and Maryland, which the College can't afford, nor if they could, have they authority to do it. " No doubt the Lords of the Treasury and the Commissioners of the Customs, by ordering the same duty in intrinsic value according to the act of Parliament to be passed in North Carolina and Pennsylvania, and by giving strict orders to their officers in New England, New York, Bar- badoes, and the Leeward Islands, and all the other Plantations, to inspect and search all vessels, and to give an account to the proper officer of the port from which they set out, might find out what tobacco had not payed the penny per pound, and might order prosecutions accordingly.

Or if the Lords and Commissioners aforesaid, who by reason of their more extensive authority, can much better detect the above-mentioned frauds, and recover the duties, and make much better advantage than we can of that revenue, would please to recommend it to His Majesty to take the said revenues back into his own hand, both in Virginia and Maryland, and to allow the College a certain yearly valuable considera- tion for it out of the quit-rents of Virginia, such as it was worth when the grant was made to the College (which was about 'four hundred

pounds sterling) ; both His Majesty and the College might be gainers

by it ; but this might be all left to your direction to manage, as the

circumstances of affairs will bear.

" II. Another thing we would recommend to your care and manage-

ment is, concerning a small library to be kept at the Indian House here called Braff"erton, upon that share of the fund allowed by the late Hon- orable Robert Boyle for the education of Indian scholars at this College, out of the manor of Brafferton, in Yorkshire, in England. We have been so good husbands of our share of that revenue, that though we have built an handsome house for the Indian school, with other good conveniences for the lodging of the master and scholars, and have THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY. 11

defrayed all the other charges iiicident to that pious undertaking, in the constant cloathing and boarding the Indian scholars, and paying the master's salary, yet we have now in bank upon that fund about five hun- dred pounds, part of which we desired to lay out in a well-chosen library, which we judge necessary, and, indeed, the most necessary thing that is now wanting towards the finishing their education, and fitting them for what was always intended, the being put in orders, and sent out Pastours to preach in their own country-language, and instruct and convert their own people. As we do not live in an age of miracles, it is not to be doubted that Indian scholars will Avant the help of many books to qualify them to become good pastours and teachers, as well as others. And the fund allotted for their education being able to supply them, what reason can be given Avhy part of it may not be employed that way? If it be alleged that our College Library, it may be expected, should supply them, it may be truly answered that at present our funds are so poor, and theirs so rich, that they can better supply us than Ave them. And so it would be no hardship upon them, if whilst Ave furnish them with Masters and Professors to teach them Latine, Greek, and HebreAv, and Philosophy, Mathematics, and Divinity, they should in their turn help themselves and us to a fcAv necessary books for those studies. But we are willing to compound the matter Avith them ; we have, Ave can't say good store of books, but enough to make a good foundation and beginning of a library, to the use of Avhich they are every

Avay Avelcome ; and, if we were able, Avould buy a great many more,

Avhich Ave and they Avant. This Avant is their loss as well as ours. What can be more reasonable than that since their fund is able to do it, and ours is not able, they should contribute their share toAvards so necessary means of education? Some, perhaps, Avill be apt to object that by this means Ave think to make a considerable addition to the College Library at their expense ; and if it were so, there would be no great harm in it, since the College Library is to be a common library to them and us.

But the case Avill be really much better on their side, for whatever books are bought Avith their money, shall be not only reposited in distinct presses marked Avith the name of Boyle or Bralferton, and at their own house (being without the college), but every particular book shall have that inscription on the back of it ; so that, although as to the use we shall have the benefit of their books, as they shall of ours, yet really the

property shall not be altered. Every one shall knoAv his OAvn ; and this of books Ave think as necessary a means and instrument of their educa- tion, as the paying for their victuals and cloaths, and master's salary

and medicine, and falls fully Avithin the design of the noble founder, and 12 THE COLLEGE OF AVILLIAM AXD MARY.

therefore we hope the Earl of Burlington and my Lord Bishop of Lon- don (whose directions we are to follow in the management of this

charity), will easily come into it, and then there will remain nothing

(for we shall give you a letter of credit to the cashier of this fund), hut to take my Lord Bishop of London, our Chancellour, his advice con- cerning the properest books for our use, .and their best editions; and to help you in this choice you will have with you two catalogues, one of those books the College is possessed of already, and another of those which an ancient minister designs shortly to leave to it,* that you may not buy them.

ۥ " Upon this occasion, too, we must desire you to Avait on his Grace, my Lord -Arch Bishop of Canterbury, who, as he has been upon all occasions a notable friend of the College, so was pleased particularly to signify his good intentions of giving or loaning something towards our Library pray render our thanks to his Grace, and so consult him in the ; books you buy for us, that he may have his share of supplying us with what part of learning he thinks most proper, that what you buy may not interfere with his Grace's intended donation. These are the chief things occur to us at present. Perhaps you may meet with some charitable benefactors especially towards our library, that being at pres-

ent our chief want, and as all this will put you to trouble and charge,

though you generously say nothing of it, we shall think it our duty not to be ungrateful; and so wishing you a prosperous voyage, good health,

and a safe return, we rest, "Sir, "Your most affectionate, humble servants."

-Duke of Beaufort. ' I understand that his lordship expressed a desire sometime before he died to be buried in Virginia, so that I do not

intend to remove the body to England ; but hope the president, &c. of the college will permit me to erect a monument near the place where he was buried, as the only means I have of expressing in some degree the sincere regard and affection I bore towards him. And I flatter

myself, it may not be disagreeable to the Virginians, to have this remem- brance of a person whom they held in so high estimation, and whose loss they so greatly lament.' Which being read the application therein contained received the unanimous assent of the society, who are glad of any opportunity of showing their sincere regard to the memory of Lord Botetourt.

of resigning the office of visitor and governor of the college. Resolved nnanimouslj^, that the President and Mr. Gwatkin do wait on his lord- ship to thank him most cordially for his past favors to the college, and most humbly to request that he will continue to act as a visitor and governor of the college, and to afford his protection to the president and professors as far as they shall appear to him to deserve his coun-

tenance." ' THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY. 15

Before the Revolution the College consisted of a school of Divinity, one of Philosophy in -which Natural Philosophy and Mathematics were taught, a Grammar school for instruction in the Ancient Languages, and an Indian school supported by the donation of the Hon. Robert Boyle, in which from about the year lYOO to that of 1776 eight to ten Indians were annually maintained and educated. Some of these Indians came a distance of four hundred miles from the College. The College long exercised the duties of the office of Surveyor

General of the colony of Virginia ; and among the surveyors appointed by it were George Washington, and Zachary Taylor of Orange, the grandfather of the late Gen. Taylor, President of the United States.

For about seventy j'-ears previous to the Revolution, the average number of students was about sixty ; from ten to fifteen of whom were received on the scholarships or foundations. At the beginning of the Revolution the number was seventy. Many of the distinguished gentlemen of Yirginia, as will be seen from this catalogue, conspicuous in the measures that led to the Revolu- tion, and for active co-operation with the patriots during the struggle for independence, were alumni of William and Mary College. And, notwithstanding the fact that most of the Faculty were of the Church Establishment, and inclined to the cause of Royalty, there are well- authenticated anecdotes which indicate that the spirit of rebellion found its way even into the corporation of the College. Towards the close of the war, three of the professors and more than thirty students joined the army. Among the latter were James Monroe and John Marshall. The parent society, in this country, of the Phi Beta Kappa Avas organized at William and Mary College as early as 1776. The first meeting was held in the Apollo Hall of the old Raleigh Tavern of Wil- liamsburg, the room in which the first revolutionary spirit of Virginia was breathed in the burning words of Henry. The original charter of this society is now in the possession of the Historical Society of this State.

In 1781, the exercises of the College -were suspended, and the build- ings were alternately occupied, the summer before the memorable siege of Yorktown, by the British and French troops. Whilst occupied by the latter, the College was injured, and the President's house destroyed by fire. This was subsequently rebuilt at the expense of the French government. It does not appear how long the College was closed ; probably the exercises were suspended not more than a year. In 1790, there was a respectable number of students. After the Revolution, the General Assembly of Virginia gave to the —

16 THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY.

College tlie Palace Lands and the houses upon tlieni, a tract of land

near Williamsburg, known as the " Vineyard," and a few aci^es not far from Jamestown. The organization of the College was now changed. Mr. Jefferson, in his Autobiography, says, ''On the 1st of June, 1779? I was appointed Governor of the Commonwealth, and retired from the Legislature. Being elected also one of the Visitors of William and

Mary College, a self-electing body, I effected during my residence in Williamsburg that year a change in the organization of that institution, by abolishing the Grammar School and the two Professorships of Divinity and Oriental Languages, and substituting a Professorship of Law and Police, one of Anatomy, Medicine, and Chemistry, and one of

Modern Languages ; and the charter confining us to six Professors, we added the Law of Nature and Nations, and the Fine Arts, to the duties of the Moral Professor, and Natural History to those of the Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy." The Indian school Avas aban- doned in consequence of the loss of the manor of Brafferton by the Revolution. In 1788 George Washington was made chancellor of the College.

His letter of acceptance is as follows :

Mount Vernon, April SOth, 1788. Dear Sir,

I am now to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the loth inst., in -which you did me the favor to enclose an extract from the original statute designating the duties of the office to which I had been appointed. Influenced by a heartfelt desire to promote the cause of science in general and the College of William and Mary in particular. I accept the office of chan-

cellor of the same, and request you will be pleased to. give official notice thereof to the learned body who have thought proper to honor me with the appoint- ment.

I confide fully in their strenuous endeavours for 23lacing tlie system of educa-

tion on sucli a basis as will render it most beneficial to the State, and tlie republic of letters, as well as to the more extensive interests of humanity and religion. In return they will do me the justice to believe, that I sliall not be tardy in giv- ing my cheerful concurrence to such measures as may be best calculated for the attainment of those desirable and important objects. For the expressions of politeness and friendsliip blended with your communi- cation, I pray you to receive my best acknowledgements. With sentiments of the highest esteem and regard.

I am, Dear Sir, Your obedient and very humble servant, GEORGE WASHINGTON. Samuel Griffin, Esq., Hector of the College of William and Mary. THE COLLEGE OF WILLIAM AND MARY. 17

Many of those who shaped the institutions of the United States, which have shaped the destinies of the human race, were trained in the

" College of William and Mary in Virginia." It is much to be regretted

that a full list of the alumni cannot be made out ; but imperfect as it

is, it contains such names as Theodrick Bland, Peyton Randolph, Carter Braxton, George Wythe, Thomas Jefferson [soon after Mr. Jefferson's entrance into college Dr. William Small was made per interim Professor

of Philosophy ; and Mr. Jefferson declared, that it was Dr. Small's in-

struction and intercourse that " probably fixed his destinies for life "], John Page, Edmund Randolph, James Monroe, John Marshall, James Barbour, Philip P.Barbour, William B. Giles, Benjamin Watkins Leigh, Chapman Johnson, John Tyler, John Randolph of Roanoke, Spencer

Roane, Littleton W. Tasewell, Wm. C. Rives, John J. Crittenden, Wil-

liam S. Archer, John Nelson, and Winfield Scott, foremost amongst the most distinguished in American history. There seems to be something like fortunate design in the very loca-

tion of the old College ; for her position to some degree illustrates her

history. On the one side lies Jamestown, the scene of early colonial

suffering and success ; in front, the site of the ancient capitol, where she

watched her sons in the hour of trial ; on the other side, the heights of Yorktown whose thunders pealed the triumph of right and liberty.

To him who is fond of antiquarian lore, the Library of the College

presents indeed an Elysian field. Tome upon tome is to be found in the collection, that alone represents in this new world the labors of the learned authors that lived centuries ago in the old. Folio volumes of

divinity, musty with age and crumbling, teach the passer-by, who does

not stop to read the lesson upon their pages, the vanity of life and the

futility of fame. The dead of the chapel of William and Mary, are a part of her

history. In its vaults rest the remains of Sir John Randolph, son of William Randolph of Turkey Island, of his sons John Randolph, Attorney General of the crown for the colony, and Peyton Randolph,

President of the first American Congress, of Lord Botetourt, of Bishop

. Madison, and of Chancellor Nelson. The names of the Visitors, Bursars, Faculty and Students at College after

1*738, in the following Catalogue, are taken from papers and records in possession of the Faculty. The names of those supposed to have been students at an earlier date were obtained from different sources.

The College records containing the names of Students before 1827, being exceedingly imperfect and in a mutilated condition, it is certain a great number are omitted. Any person who may detect an error in this Catalogue will confer a favor on the Faculty, by communicating it witliout delay to the Professor of

History, &c. in the College. KESIDENCES.

The city of "Williamsburg, in wliicli the College is located, has a population of nearly two thousand, and has long been celebrated for the elegant hospitality of its inhabitants, making it a most agreeable residence for the student. Of late, the town and the adjacent coimtry have been much improved. Timber has been cleared away, and a better system of cultivation introduced; and the result has been a decided improvement in the healthiness of the locality. Few places in the State can boast a more salubrious climate than this during the College session-

Diseases peculiar to the low country, prevail only in the months of August and

September ; and of late years these have been very mild in their character, and easily controlled by medicines. From October to July, while the College is in session, these diseases are never contracted. The winter climate is delightful

the cold being moderated by the large bodies of salt-water in the vicinity ; while it is too far distant from the ocean to be much affected by storms. The heat of

simiraer is neutralized by the same means ; so that, in the hottest weather, the thermometer ranges from three to five degrees lower than that of Richmond. Students from the upper country need be under no apprehension from the

effect of the climate; Avhile to those predisposed to pulmonary complaints it would be decidedly beneficial. During the present century only six deaths

have occurred among the students of the College ; and two of these were from drowning.
