NOTE BY THE COMMITTEE.

At a meeting of the Associated Alumni of Micldlebury College,

August 16th, 1843, a Committee was appointed to " collect information

preparatory to publishing a Catalogue in English, of the Alumni of the

College, giving the residence and profession or occupation of each, and

any other particulars " which " might be of general interest."

A circular was issued by the chairman of this Committee, Dr. S. P.

Laturop, and sent to all whose residence was known at the time,

and subsecpiently to others from time to time, as their places of resi-

dence could be ascertained. Nearly two hundred letters were received

in reply, which were put on file, and abstracts of a considerable num-

ber were made and copied into a permanent record. So little, however,

of all that was necessary to make the record complete, was as yet re-

ceived, that it was deemed inexpedient to publish the Catalogue ; and

the operations of the Committee were for a time suspended.

Meanwhile, the chairman and others of the Committee had removed from Micldlebury. The near approach of the Semi-Centennial Celebra- tion was considered a favorable time for renewing the effort to complete

the materials for the Catalogue. The Committee was re-organized, and ,

a special effort made to ascertain the residences of the graduates ; and

early in 1850, circulars were again sent forth—to the number of four hundred or more—to all whose address was known, except such as had

already been heard from. The result of this new effort was, that a

large number of returns were ultimately received, though not in season

to be available before the Jubilee.

Mr. T. S. Pearson, then a member of College, in connection with

his labors in preparing the improved Triennial of 1850, had procured from various sources, a large amount of information in addition to that

obtained by the Committee. He was employed to copy into a perma- IV NOTE BY THE COMMITTEE. ncnt record, abstracts of all the letters received and such other authen- tic information as had come to his knowledge. A report was made to the Associated Alumni at their meeting in August, 1850, but the press of business at that time prevented any decisive action. The subject was recommitted, with no specific instructions.

Somewhat more than a year ago, the materials being judged suffi- ciently complete, arrangements were made for printing the Catalogue at the press in Middlebury ; but unforeseen causes occasioned a delay till the removal of Mr. Pearson to a distant part of the State. In consequence of the difficulty of procuring any other suitable person to prepare the matter for the press, a different arrangement from the one originally contemplated became necessary ; and the subscriptions already procured, together with the responsibility of publication, have been transferred to Mr. Pearson.

It is no more than simple justice to the Editor to state, that, to his labors in collecting information from a great variety of sources, no less than to his care and skill in compiling the materials committed to him, is owing in no small degree whatever of completeness and accuracy the work as a whole shall be found to possess.

The Committee have been able to do little more by way of supervision and assistance, than to prescribe the general principles on which the

Editor should proceed in preparing his materials for the press. In all the details of the execution, he has been obliged to rely exclusively upon his own judgment and taste. W. H. PARKER, P. BATTELL, W. F. BASCOM, Committee of the J. H. BARRETT, Associated Alumni. J. W. STEWART, H. MEAD,

Middlebury, Vt., June 1, 1853.

N. B. To correct errors and supply deficiencies that may appear in the present edition of the Catalogue, information is respectfully solic- ited, directed to the Secretary of the Associated Alumni of Middlebury

College, Middlebury, Vermont. ;

NOTE BY THE EDITOR,

No publication of a character so similar to this as to be at all of use

as a model, has come to our knowledge. Of the few works on the same

general plan, some, such as the Kegister of the United States Military

Academy at West Point, (1850, pp. 303,) are prepared in tabular form

and are more purely statistical than this is designed to be ; others, like

the Brief Memoirs of the Class of 1797, Yale College, (1848, pp. 99,)

enter into genealogical and other details more than our plan allows.

Consequently, to a considerable extent our work is of a new kind, and

if it be found to be performed with less skill than our successors will

easily attain, this will share only the usual lot of similar attempts. The question, what should be inserted and what omitted—one of no

little delicacy—was decided, so far as general rules could go, by the

Committee. The following particulars, or so many of them as could

be learned, are given concerning each Alumnus : —When and where

born ; where fitted for College ; where and how long employed in

teaching ; where or with whom read profession ; where and how long

professionally employed ; what offices held ; what works published

what degrees received, (D. D. or LL. D.) ; also concerning the dead,

when and where they died. It was decided to omit whatever might

wound the feelings of friends ; also unaccepted appointments and nomi-

nations, with one or two exceptions. There must be many recent

changes of residence, &c, of which we have not learned. A few

particulars are given concerning the dead, but omitted in regard to

the living; for instance, membership of the Corporation of Middle-

bury College. Relationships are indicated in the Index. Towns and

Academies, not followed by the name of a State, are in Vermont,

except where the same town has been mentioned and its State given in EDITOR. vi NOTE BY THE the same article. Addison County Grammar School, very frequently

mentioned, is in Middlebury. Technical accuracy is not always ob- " Pastor 1826-34," served ; for instance, the expression was is used concerning a person who was not ordained till 1827, though he

commenced his labors in 1826.

Numerous errors doubtless occur. In regard to many individuals,

for want of any thing more reliable, we have been obliged to insert

what some friend " thought." We sometimes ascertained that they

thought wrong. For example, two classmates of a certain gentleman

told us that he was dead and when he died ; but he is still alive, and his

present residence is given in its proper place. Probably there are other

errors which we have not been equally fortunate in detecting and cor-

recting. The want of uniformity in the sketches of those who furnished

information concerning themselves is to be attributed to the difference

in the Circulars of 1843 and 1850. More particulars are now included

than was originally intended. The list of publications must be very

defective. Neither of the Circulars above-mentioned made inquiry con-

cerning them, but we have done the best we could at " making brick

without straw."

Our sources of information have been, over 420 manuscript letters

and an indefinite amount of printed matter, from a mere newspaper

allusion to a formal memoir of hundreds of pages. In collecting and

combining materials from sources so scattered and often obscure, the

Editor has doubtless made mistakes, especially as he has had no aid

whatever in this department of his labor. In cases where those who

have given us correct information arc misrepresented through our care-

lessness, we most humbly beg pardon ; in cases where we were unable

to learn the residence of a person so as to solicit information, we express

our sincere regret ; in cases of misrepresentation of those to whom we

have applied in vain for information, we can only say they must thank

themselves. References to the sources of information for every state-

ment have been scrupulously made and will be carefully preserved.

The following brief summary of the employments, offices, &c, of the ;
