Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Catalogue of the Matriculates of the College: Together With Lists of the Members of the College Faculty and the Trustees Officers and Recipients of Honorary Degrees, 1749-1893 The present catalogue is the outcome of a resolution adopted at its annual meeting in 1885 by the Society of the Alumni. A short time previously at a reunion of the Class of 1862 the attempt had been made to provide brief notes of the careers of its members, and it was thought that similar notes of all who had ever attended the Departments of Arts and of Science in the University of Pennsylvania would be interesting and useful. It was almost immediately recognized that a book of this kind would require so much labor in its preparation as to justify going a little farther than was at first contemplated and obtaining additional data which would be valuable to anyone desiring to prepare a complete biography of any matriculate of the College. The determination to perform the task in this way transformed the work from a mere catalogue with occasional notes as to date of death, etc., into a collection of short biographical sketches. The Committee did not consider itself absolved from its obligation toward the Alumni Society and the University by the failure of those addressed to respond to its inquiries, and has sought information from all sources, though not always with success. It must be remembered that the problem with which the Committee has had to deal is one of a biographical catalogue commencing in Colonial days, relating to an institution situated in the centre of the scene of the war of Independence, and. Therefore deprived of many of the archives which at a less distracted locality or in' a more peaceful era would have been obtainable. With a view to obtaining necessary information of the persons designated without invading their rights to privacy, a carefully considered question-sheet was sent out by the Committee to all matriculates or their representatives. Editing the material collected has not been easy. Believing it necessary to limit itself to the bare statement of facts, without elaboration of any kind, the Committee feels that injustice seems to be done to some eminent matriculates who were neither authors nor holders of public office, and whose records therefore appear meagre. This could not be remedied without the preparation of much fuller biographies than space and means would permit. Other dith culties were supplying deficiencies in cases where the returned question-sheet omitted items proper for insertion, and the excision of matter, in cases where the returns were too full.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Catalogue of the Matriculates of Haverford College: Together With Lists of the Members of the College Faculty and the Managers, Officers and Recipients of Honorary Degrees, 1833-1900 The compilation of a Biographical Catalogue of the Matriculates of Haverford College was undertaken by the Alumni Association in 1894, when a committee of its members was appointed for the purpose. The collection of the necessary data was at once begun. To all matriculates or their representatives a letter was sent, enclosing a carefully prepared question sheet. The failure of many of those addressed to respond to the committee's inquiries necessitated an other communication. After prosecuting the work for more than two years, it became evident to the committee that the task was of such magnitude as to require expert assistance in order successfully to complete the work. In 1897 the services of Professor Allen C. Thomas as editor were fortunately secured. Through his long con nection with Haverford College, Professor Thomas was peculiarly fitted to undertake the work. To him the thanks of the committee are due for the great interest shown and the painstaking care used in endeavoring to make the volume complete and accurate. Through his untiring efforts during the past three years much information has been secured which it had previously seemed impossible to find. The records in the following pages are incomplete only in cases where the matriculates have died or have been lost sight of, or where repeated requests for information have been ignored and it has been found impossible to supply it from college and meeting records or genealogies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Catalog of the Matriculates of Haverford College, Together With Lists of the Members of the College Faculty and the Managers, Officers and Recipients of Honorary Degrees, 1833-1922 In the Spring of 1900 was published the first edition of this Catalog. It was the result of six years of work on the part of an Alumni Committee, of which George Gluyas Mercer, '77, was Chairman, and which included Charles Roberts, '64, Edward Y. Hartshorne, '81, Barker Newhall, '87, and Franklin B. Kirkbride, '89. This Committee was fortunate in securing the services of Professor Allen Clapp Thomas, '65, as Editor, and the accuracy and completeness of the original edition were largely due to his painstaking research. From the publication of the first catalog up to the time of his death, Professor Thomas carefully set down in the margins of the book such changes as came to his attention, and this annotated copy has been of great assistance to the present Committee. The College Records and Alumni Notes from the files of the Haverford News and the Haverfordian have given much information, and the Endowment Fund Campaign, which brought a great majority of the Alumni into close communication with the College, opened a rich source of new material. Questionnaires covering all essential biographical details were returned by over 1450 matriculates during 1920, and in addition, a good deal of information was obtained about men who had died since graduation. When all this information had been collated and put in the form adopted for the present edition, to each living matriculate was mailed a typewritten copy of his own history for corrections or additions. The present volume embodies the result of these inquiries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Citizen Bachelors by : John Gilbert McCurdy
Download or read book Citizen Bachelors written by John Gilbert McCurdy and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2011-03-15 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1755 Benjamin Franklin observed "a man without a wife is but half a man" and since then historians have taken Franklin at his word. In Citizen Bachelors, John Gilbert McCurdy demonstrates that Franklin's comment was only one side of a much larger conversation. Early Americans vigorously debated the status of unmarried men and this debate was instrumental in the creation of American citizenship. In a sweeping examination of the bachelor in early America, McCurdy fleshes out a largely unexamined aspect of the history of gender. Single men were instrumental to the settlement of the United States and for most of the seventeenth century their presence was not particularly problematic. However, as the colonies matured, Americans began to worry about those who stood outside the family. Lawmakers began to limit the freedoms of single men with laws requiring bachelors to pay higher taxes and face harsher penalties for crimes than married men, while moralists began to decry the sexual immorality of unmarried men. But many resisted these new tactics, including single men who reveled in their hedonistic reputations by delighting in sexual horseplay without marital consequences. At the time of the Revolution, these conflicting views were confronted head-on. As the incipient American state needed men to stand at the forefront of the fight for independence, the bachelor came to be seen as possessing just the sort of political, social, and economic agency associated with citizenship in a democratic society. When the war was won, these men demanded an end to their unequal treatment, sometimes grudgingly, and the citizen bachelor was welcomed into American society. Drawing on sources as varied as laws, diaries, political manifestos, and newspapers, McCurdy shows that in the course of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the bachelor was a simultaneously suspicious and desirable figure: suspicious because he was not tethered to family and household obligations yet desirable because he was free to study, devote himself to political office, and fight and die in battle. He suggests that this dichotomy remains with us to this day and thus it is in early America that we find the origins of the modern-day identity of the bachelor as a symbol of masculine independence. McCurdy also observes that by extending citizenship to bachelors, the founders affirmed their commitment to individual freedom, a commitment that has subsequently come to define the very essence of American citizenship.
