THIS LITTLE BOOK
DEVOTED TO THE MEMORY OF ALUMNI OF THE PAST
WHOM THE LIVING ALUMNI
DELIGHT TO HONOR
IN THIS THE CENTENNIAL YEAR OF THE COLLEGE
IS AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED
TO OUR BELOVED LEADER
CHARLES HENRY RAMMELKAMP
SIXTH PRESIDENT OF ILLINOIS COLLEGE
WHOSE UNDAUNTED FAITH. TIRELESS DEVOTION, AND HIGH IDEALS
HAVE BROUGHT OUR ALMA MATER
TO THE THRESHOLD OF ITS SECOND CENTURY
RENEWED IN STRENGTH, HONORED OF ALL. CONFIDENT OF THE FUTURE
PREFATORY NOTE
The publication of the Centennial Edition of this modest
record of the lives of the alumni of Illinois College in whose
names Memorial Memberships in the Alumni Fund Association
have been established fulhlls a hope that vv^as timidly expressed
in the first edition, published in 1917, and a definite promise
that was made in the second edition, published in 1924. But
when the promise was made five years ago and the work of
preparation begun, it seemed quite improbable that anything
like historical completeness could be attained, especially for
the early period.
The fact is, however, that over one-half of those who are
commemorated in this book are from the first twenty-five years
after there began to be graduates, that is, from 1835 to i860.
This result is due, partly to the wide-spread interest which
the undertaking has aroused among the relatives and friends
of early students of the College, partly to the zeal of the
Sigma Pi and Phi Alpha Societies in showing honor to their
Founders, and partly to the extraordinary generosity shown
by the alumni in contributing the money for memberships in
honor of men who, though prominent in the pioneer days, were
often quite unknown to the donors themselves.
If this little book shall bring back into the consciousness of
the Illinois College of the twentieth century the personality,
character and achievements of the leading Illinois College men
of one hundred, seventy-five, and fifty years ago, it will have
fulfilled its mission. The alumni of Illinois College have been
deeply impressed in this the centennial year of its founding
by the able historical narrative of the hundred years which
President Rammelkamp has written and the Yale University
Press has published. His moving story of struggle, sacrifice, and
ultimate success centers in Jacksonville and Illinois ; it is the
story of the College. But as one follows the careers of our
alumni as sketched in the following pages, we are reading the
story of the development of the great Middle West, the South-
west, and the Far West. From Illinois and Jacksonville the
influences radiate in every direction ; it is the contribution of
Illinois College to the nation.
