Based on the records of the University Archives, Ollf representation of an evolving institution is, inevitably, incomplete. Even were comprehensiveness OUf aim, we should fail in the absence of archival records for some periods and in the paucity of documentation for others. Nonetheless, we have sought to relate narratively and to evoke pictorially the broad outlines of the University's intellectual and physical progression as well as to nOte a few of me many personalities who have shaped and animated the institution across the years. Earlier chronological narratives concerning the University's history-John Waddel's His/orin11 Dircollrse De/iv. ered on the Quarter-CtTlltnnia/ 0/ the Unit'ersity of MiwJsippi (Oxford, 1873), Edward Mayes' chapter on the University in the HtJlory 0/ Education in Missirsippi (Washingcon, 1899), The Historical Cata/ogue of the UninrsilY 0/ MiuiJsippi: /849-1909. and Allen Cabaniss' The Uml'ersity 0/ Mississippi: /Is First Hundred Years (Hattiesburg, 197 I)-remain indispensable guides. But in contrast CO these works our approach has concentrated less on following developments at the University mrough the succession of Chancellors than on organizing its history into periods. Each of the three main sections of me catalogue includes a narrative overview. essays on specific and general subjects, and iconographic materials illustrative of the textual maner. This exhibition and catalogue could not have appeared without the encouraging support of Library Director Dr. Calvin Boyer. We are indebted to the Physics Departmem for depositing me Bayman photographic collec­ tion in the University Archives. Most of the research and the writing of the (ext was undertaken by Dr. James Lloyd. Deborah Thiel of the Department of Archives and Special Collections has designed and illustrated the catalogue and mounted the exhibition. Mr. William Marrin and Mr. S. J. Parham have been responsible for the considerable effort in developing, copying, and printing the frequently fragile and rare photographs, many of which are reproduced here for the first time. We solicit reaction {O rhe exhibition from alumni and friends of (he University and would welcome contribu­ tions of materials to complement and enhance the University's archival records. Thomas M. Verich University Archivist Curator of Special Collections The Beginning: 1848-1865 Blc fael rhe was one ofl bur hou appl afIc and Poly 11 The history of the University of Mississippi from its beginning until 1865 might be seen in one sense as a effu. record of unfulfilled promise. The Seminary Fund-authorized by Congress co suppOrt the establishment of a were university in Mississippi-had been depleted by nearly three·fourths of an original $352,000 endowment even in }L before the University opened its doors. Faced early in its instirutionallife with diminished resources, the Univer­ cxpt: sity twelve years later suffered from the physical and psychological ravages of a fratricidal war. An immediate and J effect of the Civil War was to dose the University temporarily. A longer range effeCt-one felt for several profl decades-was the fiscal inability of post-bellum leaders to carry out plans for,b>ed for the University before the insti[ war. Nonetheless. though the times were inauspicious for the founding of Southern colleges, the University of Jiquc Mississippi was fortunate in having capable and conscientious men on the Board of Trustees and in the faculty youd who succeeded despite these conditions in making the Universit}, a viable educational institution. Viewed agains! nOt 2 such a background of adversity, this period in the University's history presents a record of outs!anding achieve­ youd ment by numerous individuals who labored against considerable odds. Wack The first Board of Trustees was composed of thirteen distinguished Mississippians: John A. Quitman, twice Oxfo governor of Mississippi, Major General in the regular amy, and (he Board's first Chairman; Alexander M.

  • Biographical Notice of Professor S. W. Burnham of Chicago
    * 4' 509 7 142 Biographical Notice of Professor S. W. Burnham of Chicago. By the death in Chicago, March I I, 192 I, of Professor Sherburne Wesley Burnham, the celebrated dis- coverer of double stars, America has lost one of her most illustrious astronomers, and double-star astronomy its most eminent cultivator since the days of W. Herschel and K Struve, who laid the foundations of this branch of the science about a century ago. Professor Burnham was born at Thetford, Vermont, Dec. 12, 1838, and thus he attained the age of 82 years and 3 months. Though retired from active observing for about ten years, Bumham had enjoyed moderately good health for his years and somewhat frail build, and finally succumbed to weakness accentuated by a fall, in which a hip was broken. After this misfortune he lingered some three weeks, without extreme suffering, yet the shock proved too great for the feeble recuperative power incident to his advanced age. Burnham was married in the years of his early manhood, and is survived by his aged widow, several sons and daughters, including a number of grandchildren. A more detailed account of his family will be given by Professor 3.E. Barnard, in a biographical notice soon to appear in Popular Astronomy. Here it must suffice to give an outline of his scientific career, which has left so deep an impress on the science of his country and of his age. In his youth this future celebrated astronomer had received only a common school education; but already in the days of the civil war he happened to become possessed of a copy of Burritt's Geography of the Heavens, which so interested him that it turned his attention to astronomy, and he lived to devote to this science over half a century of active observation and research, with the largest telescopes in the world.

  • A Reader's Companion
    A Reader’s Companion to the Novel ALEMETH with Commentary by the Author in Which Particular Attention is Given to What is Real and What is Not jwcarvin © 2017 WARNING This Reader’s Companion is meant to be read after the novel, Alemeth, is read. It contains plot spoilers and other information which may detract from appreciation of the novel. i ii Introduction I am intrigued by the past for the reason William Faulkner gave: that it is not, really, even past. It not only shaped us to be who we are; it is, in a real sense, who we are, and we can never escape its grasp. I am also intrigued by the challenge of reconstructing it. Understanding what is real about it, and what is not, is almost the same thing as understanding ourselves, and nearly as hard. As Gordon Falkner points out in Chapter 67, we’re on a steamboat of present time: after we’ve gone a few feet upriver, the murky bottom will never be as it was when we first passed through it. Even as I write, pieces of evidence are settling behind me, and not (I hasten to point out) as they first lay. What should I expect to find when I turn back to examine them, stirring things up again as I do? Can I keep my own perspective, all my assumptions and biases, from affecting what I see? Reconstructing the past necessarily involves an effort to separate fact from fiction. But as Don Doyle writes in his wonderful book, Faulkner’s County,1 “historians are among the first to admit that the distinction between fact and fiction is hardly clear cut.” The best historians sometimes get things wrong.
