    THE INAUGURATION OF CLAYTON S. ROSE Fifteenth President of Bowdoin College Saturday, October 17, 2015 10:30 a.m. Farley Field House Bowdoin College Brunswick, Maine Bricks The pattern of brick used in these materials is derived from the brick of the terrace of the Walker Art Building, which houses the Bowdoin College Museum of Art. The Walker Art Building is an anchor of Bowdoin’s historic Quad, and it is a true architectural beauty. It is also a place full of life—on warm days, the terrace is the first place you will see students and others enjoying the sunshine—and it is standing on this brick that students both begin and end their time at Bowdoin. At the end of their orientation to the College, the incoming class gathers on the terrace for their first photo as a class, and at Commencement they walk across the terrace to shake the hand of Bowdoin’s president and receive their diplomas.

  • Pine Grove Cemetery Walking Tour
    Pine Grove Cemetery Walking Tour A tour of the final resting place of many prominent members of the Brunswick community Brief History: With the utilization of all plots in the Brunswick burying ground adjacent to the meeting house on upper Maine Street, three citizens contracted with Bowdoin College to acquire land for a new site. In 1821, a tract was obtained and subsequently – in 1886 and 1973 – two ad- joining parcels were purchased and developed. As a condition of each sale, Bowdoin College was deeded a row of plots to allocate as they wished. Traditionally, they were assigned to individuals and families who had given distinguished service to the college. The remaining plots were made available to local citizens and a walk of the grounds will find numerous prominent Brunswick names, some of which are found within these pages. The accompanying map on the back of this booklet provides a guide to specific grave sites. For more information about those buried at Pine Grove Cemetery, see the survey prepared by Cheetham & Cheetham, available at Brunswick’s Curtis Memorial Library, Bowdoin College Library, and the Pejepscot Historical Society. Portions of this survey are available at http://www.curtislibrary.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Pine- Grove-Cemetery-searchable.pdf. Walking Directions: From the Visitors Center/Maine Street Station, proceed to Maine Street and turn right up the hill, towards First Parish Church at the intersection of Maine Street and Bath Road. Turn left onto Bath Road, walking be- tween the Church and the Bowdoin College campus and through the traffic light at Federal Street.

Chief Justice John Appleton (1804-1891) DAVID M . GOLD CHIEF JUSTICE JOHN APPLETON At a banquet celebrating the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Maine Historical Society, one of the speakers, George F. Talbot, expressed his desire someday to see biographies of two of Maine’s most eminent public figures, William Pitt Fessenden and John Appleton.1 The fame of Fessenden, Civil War senator and secretary of the treasury under Lincoln, has been revived in recent years because of his key role in Reconstruction politics. Appleton, however, remains relatively unknown; the only substantial essay on him is now more than seventy years old.2 An ardent legal reformer, Appleton served with distinction for thirty-one years on the Supreme Judicial Court of Maine, published many articles in leading law journals attacking anachronistic and unjust rules of evidence, and gained renown for his successful struggle to make the accused in a criminal case competent to testify in his own behalf.

BIOGRAPHICAL MATERIAL Appleton Farms, located in Hamilton and Ipswich Massachusetts, is the oldest continuously operating farm in America. Established in 1636 by Samuel Appleton, the farm is among the most influential in America’s agricultural history. For nearly four centuries, the Appletons preserved their farm and maintained a successful agricultural operation supplemented with income from work as millers, hip merchants, industrialists, lawyers and tradesmen. The farm grew vegetables, hay and corn; the family also expanded production into beef, dairy and timber. By the end of the 19th Century it became a summer country estate that hosted fox hunts, steeple chases, and grass rides.

  • Bowdoin Sunday Remarks John Cross 2-19-2017
    Bowdoin Sunday Remarks John Cross 2-19-2017 Good morning. First Parish is the church into which I was born, baptized, and confirmed. It is where I sang in the junior choir, and where the Cross family was embraced with love and understanding for so many years. I am grateful for the opportunity to speak today about some of the historical connections of First Parish Church and Bowdoin College in this, the 300th year of the church’s history. As I stand here, I am reminded that there are many among you who know this history as well as – or better than – I do, and I certainly would put Mary Baard, Bill Millar, Mildred Jones, Liz Newman, and Homer Kenison at the top of the list. Bowdoin College was chartered in 1794 and opened in September of 1802. The delays were due to debates over the where the College should be located, the amount of time it took to sell lands granted by Massachusetts to fund the new college, and the time required to build Massachusetts Hall. Williams College, chartered in 1793, and Bowdoin, chartered in 1794, represented an acknowledgement by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts that the western and eastern regions of the state should be served by literary institutions that were “closer to home” There is a persistent story – I don’t know if it is true – that the legislature approved the two charters at the about the same time, but that Governor John Hancock withheld his signature on Bowdoin’s charter because he and James Bowdoin II did not get along; Governor Samuel Adams had no such reservations in 1794.

First of all, I must thank my advisor, Dr. Jon Wakelyn, who has the patience of Job. When I got off on a tangent or lost my focus, it was Dr. Wakelyn who helped get me back on track. He has gently shepherded me through the pitfalls of this process, while at the same time, would never let me settle for second best. In so many ways, he has helped me think like a professional historian and his guidance has been a major factor in my completion of this work.

Published monthly by the College. Bowdoin College BOWDOIN COLLEGE was incorporated by the General Court of Massachusetts, upon the joint petition of the Association of Min- isters and the Court of Sessions of Cumberland County. The act of incorporation was signed by Governor Samuel Adams, June 24, 1794. The legal designation of the Corporation is the President and Trustees of Bowdoin College. The College was named in honor of James Bowdoin, a distinguished Governor of Massachusetts, of Huguenot descent. The government has been, from the first, vested in two concurrent Boards, the Trustees and the Overseers, the Trustees initiating legislation and the Overseers concurring or vetoing. Since 1870 one-half the vacancies occurring in the Board of Overseers have been filled from nominations from the body of the Alumni.
