 arly, professorial portrait of Chadbourne ; here, the frankness, honesty, 

 guilelessness, common-sense, and friendliness which so mark the face 

 of Stockbridge ; and I would not fail to find a picture of benevolence, 

 generosity, modesty, and sadness lit by a heavenly smile, which 

 were illustrated in the person of William Knowlton. My gallery 

 would include still others among the living as well as the dead. 



And when in after time the long list of the faithful and devoted ser- 

 vants of the college shall be scanned, one will be found who from 

 1867 was professor of modern languages and English Literature; 

 from 1867 to 1869, instructor in gymnastics and military science ; in 

 1869 lecturer in entomology ; in 1869 and 1870 instructor in zoology ; 

 from 1869 to 1871 instructor in anatomy and physiology ; in 1872 and 

 1873 instructor in history ; in 1885 and 1886 librarian, and finally in 

 1886 president of the college, Goodell's name " will lead all the 

 rest."
