Dedication T SR i e | ! Speaks at |ter to victory through death. Exercises of Foundation This Afternoon in Capi- tal City. Hartford, May v, Ozora S. Davis, president of the Uhicago Theological seminary, and formerly pastor of the South Congre- zational church, New Britain, came liack to the green hills of Connecti- ut today to review the 3§ years that lLave passed since his graduation from the Hartford Theological sem- inary. He was one of the principal speakers at exercises held this after- noon in connection with the dedica- tion of s 1 new buildings of t Hartford Theological foundation. Dr. Davis traced events which have transplired in the past third of a cen- tury in an interesting manner. He “poke as follows: “By this title let me indicate the <ontents of this brief report of cer- tain observations resuiting from a survey of the 33 years which have vassed since I graduated from the 1lartford Theological seminary in May, 1894, The two years following were spent in Berlin, Jena and Leip- zig on the John S. Welles Fellow- ship, 80 that a little less than 31 vears are included since I was or- dained to the Christian ministry at tpringfleld, Vermont, in September, 1895, “I can remember as vididly as if it were yesterday the autumn after- voon in 1891 when I walked from the rallway station to Hosmer hall on Sroad strect, having come by train irom White River Junction, Ver- mont, where for the two years fol- lowing my graduation at Dartmouth REV. DR. OZORA S. DAVIS college In June, 1889, T had been the principal of a high school, vast- Iy concerned with the payment of my college debts. I had little idea of what a theeological seminary might e and found myself immediately in- terested in the surroundings, the stu- dents and the faculty. Hosmer hall was spacious and beautiful in com- parison with the old bulldings at Hanover for Dartmouth had not 1hen entered upon its period of ex- pansion under the brilliant leader- ship of President Willam Jewett Tucker. There was friendly welcome from former students, immediate brotherly contact with the new men, capecially with Frank 8. Brewer, Be- loit '91, with whom I have main- tained a priceless and fraternal re- lation for these 36 years. The master spirit of the seminary was Chester 1), Hartrantt, tall, commanding, kind, one of the nobiest teachers I ever have had, to whose memory I hes pay reverence ever richer and mo genuine, “Thera were also newcomers to the reminary faculty that first year, among them the scholar and pastor, Melancthon W. Jacobus. With our class Dean Jacobus began his work in Hartford. No wods of mine can oxpress my debt to him, for he gav ine lavishly of his time and counsel as I worked on & vocabulary of New Testament words, often in his room, where a bag of Indian River oranges and occasionally the music from a cencert in Foot Guard armory broke the monotony of tracing Greek roots in lexicons. To Graham Taylor, who plunged me into practical service in the Open Hearth mission, the Hart- for@ county jall. and the Yoke Fel- lows' Band, I owe the social vision and passion for democracy, which, vears afterward from 1909 until this present hour, were still more deeply wrought into the very structure of my life as we have worked together in Chicago.
