Professor John Wigger Professor Jeffery Pasley Professor Catherine Rymph Professor Theodore Koditschek Professor Brian Kierland DEDICATION For the two Angies, who are the lights of my life. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I take special pleasure in acknowledging the assistance that I have received in completing this project. After a career in higher education and local government, I retired and began working on a degree in history at the University of Missouri. My age – I was 63 when I started – was unusual, but I am also blind. Both the faculty with whom I worked and the UM support staff gave me the assistance and encouragement that made possible the research and analysis necessary to complete a dissertation. The people with whom I have worked at the University of Missouri are genuinely competent; but beyond that, they are thoroughly generous and kind. I am very happy to have this occasion to sincerely thank each of them. I had the good fortune to have the direction in my research of John Wigger, a fine scholar and a caring man.

  • BROADSIDES the Programs and Catalogues of Brown
    BROADSIDES The programs and catalogues of Brown University are representative of the work of a number of Rhode Island printers, including H.H. Brown (Hugh Hale Brown), Brown and Wilson (Hugh Hale Brown, William H. WIlson), John Carter, Carter and Wilkinson (John Carter, William Wilkinson), Dunham and Hawkins (William H. Dunham, David Hawkins, Jr.), Barnum Field, Field and Maxcy (Barnum Field, Eaton W. Maxcy), Gilbert and Dean ==?== Goddard and Knowles (William G. Goddard, James D. Knowles), Goddard and Mann (William G. Goddard, William M. Mann), J.A. and R.A. Reid (James Allen Reid), Smith and Parmenter (SAmuel J. Smith, Jonathan C. Parmenter); also the Microcosism Office and the American (Rhode Island American?) Office. BR-1F: CATALOGUS Latin catalogue of graduates of the College. The first Catalogus is mentioned in Ezra Stiles' diary. Lists baccalaureate and honorary graduates by year. In later editions, graduates are listed under year alphabetically in two groups, graduates in course and honorary graduates. For the year 1772 only graduates in course appear. At the time of publication of the Historical Catalogue of Brown University, 1764-1894, no copy was known. The copy now in the Archives has been annotated in ink, changing the A.B. after names of 1769 graduates to A.M. Forenames are in Latin form, and in later editions, names of clergy men are in italics, and names of deceased are starred, with a summary at the end. Printed triennially. Second edition in 1775. Evans 16049 and 17347 describe editions of 1778 and 1781, and Alden 756 concludes that these descriptions were by conjecture from the 1775 edition on the assumption that a catalogue was issued every three years, and that no such catalogues were actually printed in those years.
