Infthis connection it ought to be moted that out of. thesa uhited efforts of the women there grew up that most efficient and far-reaching organization, whose ' invaluable services terminated only with the war—“The Soldiers’ Aid gociety,” ‘of which -Miss Eliz Greene wasat _the head, and in whick fMiss Carrie L. Thomas and Miss Eliza P. Perkins played leading parts. It 'would be interesting to follow in Wetall* the histery of the four eventful years which followed. But my time avill not permit me to even summarize he story which Doctor Pana in hi fabor/of love—"The Norwich Memorial —has put in abiding form and so worthily’told. When dark hours came, @s they not infrequently did, and dis- ‘couragements beset the ‘cause around which the hopes of anxfous loyal hearts mwere centered, faith did not falter nere, nor courage abate. The inspiration of indomitable/leaders was steadily pres- ent.. As call after call for men came in staggering succession, and the material with which to respond grew less and fQess, the devetion of the people kept rising to higher heights of sacrifice, sand their grim determination to more | Wheroic efforts. The public purse was unstinfingly drawn upon, and private 80 that in the end approximately $165,000 was thus speat in erder that the response to the coun- try’s call might be prompt and ade- quate, and the allotted quota of the town was always full, and oftem more than full. In all, the number who en- listed from here was practically one- fenth of the whole population.. The est blood of It was Included. Of those who went out many never returned, and incomparable sadness. came into many homes, high and low. But, the major part did return to receive a welcome long to be remémbered and 10 take up their parts again in the life of this community. The roll of the men who came to distinction in the service s too long for repetition here. T can only pause to enumerate those ferw who came to the highest station upon their country's records. Joseph Lanman was a commodore after 1 and Jater became an admiral.

He had the year before come to the Academy, which under the principalship of Elbridge Smith had already been placed upon a firm foundation. He remained until his untimely death in 1885 +0 continue his invaluable work for this communi- ty in the training and inspiration of its young men and women. He was not long in making his. influence felt, and soon school acquired a recognized Teputation as one of the best in the land, and as one without a superior as e preparation, What his power was 1 @0 not ve diftovered, Something of it was doubtless due to the genuine- negs, directness and wholesomeness of his ‘nature. There was no shem or out him. He was human and sympathetic. He was sane in his view of things. He was catholic in his spirit. He unnderstood the young, and how to reach them, He sat up no im- possible standards. ‘He marked out no ow ways. His influence was mot °d through a s; em of “thou t nots,” but through an inspiration to-the best things which radiated from him on every hand. “He looked to the instillation ‘of ideals, and the creation of worthy aspirations and ambitions, and not to commandments for the as- surance of an honorable life. It was a sad day to many.when the news went forth that the beloved teacher had closed his labors, and Nogwich rightly felt that one of her noblést had gone from her. Protessor Hutchinson was as quiet in his ways, as simple. in his habits 4nd as modest in his demeanor as he was strong. He sought neither publicity nor fame. The limelight had no attraction for him. He was content to do his duty as a moulder of youth, a citizen of this town and a Christian, He did it well, and the verdict of all who knew him or his service must be that few men have contributed more to the triie welfare of this community and its people than did he. These allusions to the Academy in- vite our attention to the growth and Jdevelépment of that institution. Rifty s ago its instructors numbered five ind Jts pupils less than a hundred, and the “courses® offered were limit=d to two—a classical and an nglish, The latest catalogue shows 444 students in and a teaching force of courses have been greatl; and diversified.

These men were of dis- tinetly’ different types, and theit strength lay in different directions, but they were all forceful factors in their profession, and in the life of this om- munity. In this connection mention should be made of John D. Park. In 1855 he was, at an early age, chosen to a judgeship of the superior ocurt, and in 1864 he became a member of the supreme court. In 1870 he was made chief justic ich office he con tinued to hold unfil his retirement ag: was reached in 1889. Thus withdrawn from the activities of his -profession during the best years of his life,~he | was naturally less identified with local affairs than those alrealy named.

Jeremiah Halsey a Born Lawyer. 1 feel that T should fail in my duty upon this occasion if T dismissed thi gTroup of men without a fuller recozni tion of the character and career of one of them. Jeremiah Halsey was a born lawyer. Nature endowed him with her shoicest_gifts of jntellect and charac- | ter, and he assiduously devoted his many years of life to the serviee of | his profession. No one would more cheerfully acknowledge his primacy at this bar than the ablest among his contemporaries. He was the ideal phro- duct of the rural life which bred him, and of the life here whi contributed o fashion him, In my youth I was taught to think that all the noblest qualities of manhood, and the highest legal eruditiop were met in him. The personal observations of my later years have not caused me to essentially mod- ify this early . impression. And the verdict of those of his contemporaries, the state over, wio were best gualifi (o judge, was'to the same general ef- fect. Was éver a man more simple in his Mfe and manier, more ‘pure and sweet in his living, more gentle and sympathetic his spirit, more unself- ish and helpful in his conduct?~ He went in and ouy among this people as humbly as the Humblest of them. And t he must hayve known that he pos- Sessed & power within himself, and wielded an influence over others which was rare indeed. The secrels of that power and influence. are not hard to discover.
