Description

Excerpt from The Story of Princeton For statements of fact in this book little claim can be made for novelty or originality. It draws freely on the well-known sources of Princeton history - Professor V. L. Collins's "Princeton", President John Maclean's "History of the College of New Jersey", Air. John F. Hageman's "Princeton and its Institutions", Doctor John De Witt's "Historical Sketch of Princeton University", in the "Memorial Book of the Sesquicentennial Celebration", Professor W, M. Sloane's "Life of James McCosh", the Pyne-Henry documents, the voluminous "Princetoniana" collected by Professor William Libbey, and the other Princeton Collections in the Princeton University Library, the files of The Princeton Alumni Weekly, and numerous other sources. To the authors, compilers, and collectors of all these sources, without whose researches and painstaking labors this volume would have been well-nigh impossible, grateful acknowledgments are made; and especially to Professor Collins's admirably compact yet comprehensive "Princeton."
