Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Présentation de l'éditeur
It is not a literary production, it is not a critical estimate of a mans worth to his fe Uow-creatures, nor to the institutions to which his life was related. It was not written for the public, nor with this larger world in thought, but because of inward compulsion and the joy found in the work, as well as with a desire to leave on record for my sons a summary of their fathers life and something concerning the spirit in which his life was lived. Many of the inner circle who have read this sketch feel that because of its intimate touch it has special and peculiar value for that large number of young men and women who have spent their happy college years under his administration. So, I take courage and send it forth to speak its own message in its own way. Isabel Smith Gates. Cambridge, Mass., A pril, 1916.
