 told me that he was enjoying himself immensely. The party managers 

 thought that this cloistered "schoolmaster," who had had so little 

 experience of practical life, would allow himself to be guided by them. 

 When they found out their mistake, they nearly burst with rage and 

 hated him venomously to the end of his life. Before election day he 

 resigned the presidency of Princeton, thus bringing to a close an 

 administration, which, though only eight years long, was wonderful in 

 the impetus it gave, an impetus which we are still feeling. There was 

 an interregnum of two years, until the election of Dr. Hibben.
