tMe absence the Grammar School of Kenyon was divided and in 1833 hwwas induced to return and placed at the bead of the senior Grammar School the junior being under Dr Dyer who remained in charge during the rest of the so journ of Prof Williams and for some years there after During this period some very eminent men passed under his tuition and his success was marked His life then as afterwards was too well regulated to be very eventful But the qualities that endeared nim to all who knew him in his later years were as conspicuous then as since Those who try to describe him at any period find them selves constantly passing over his intellectual worth to dwell on the qualities that made him such a power morally and socially In reply to a request made to Dr Dyer for information concern ing that time of our history be bears the stronsest witness to his character in this respect was engaged as a teacher in the Preparatory Denartment of Kenvon College for several years aiid was greatly esteemed as teacher and as a gentleman of refined and courteous manners His patience ana amiability were truly remark able Nothing not even the pranks and freaks of wild boys and yourttejnen could put him out of temper or make hiwhurry Ho was regarded as a very accurate scholar and had the faculty of attaching the pupils to him very strongly While I cannot recall anv incidents con nected with hta life at Gambier of particular in terest or importance I iron recall his whole ap as ho walked the streets or in his class room or mingled in society He was always affable gentle ana eiemy but friend As I now see him in his swallow tail coat with Its brass buttons and his spectacles mounted on his nose his whole figure and manner become a living reality Tiiough never particularly intimate with him I always regarded him as a man of great excellence ahd worth Though more than forty years have elapsed since I have seen Dr Williams I have a vivid remembrance of his manifold virtues but of his vices or tailings ff he had any I do not re member one At that day his life and example were a perpetual benediction as I believe they were till he entered on ttie life above I am Sorry I cannot add something more but a nature" so quiet as his and a lite so even in all its ways afford but little to be expressed in words The im pressions he made remain and they remain to bless all upon whom they were It wds a fortunate choice made by his discerning friend that secured such a man to lay the founda tions of this University Tne first step of the Regents after the Slate government was organized and means were provided for making a beginning was to establish branches which were to serve as preparatory schools The branch at Pontiac was placed in 1337 under the charge of Prof Williams who retained it until appointed in 1841 to begin work in the College Department His nominal colleagues at this time were Dr Douglass Hough ton the dstinguished geologist and Prof Joseph Whiting who had been Principal of the branch at Niles Dr Houghton died before his special work was provided for Prof Whiting in due time as sumed his duties at Ann Arbor but his useful life was ended a hhort time before the first class graduated Prof Williams was in the beginning placed in the chair of Ancient Languages and afterwards in that of Mathematics and Physics or a time he conducted all the Ann Arbor work alone including some preparatory teaching' As senior Professor he was virtually head of the University for more than ten years and his influence during that formative period was of in calculable in encouraging in young men the union of manliness with generous and frgjik courtesy and good feeling The classes were small enough to make personal influence sensibly felt and no one among them whether well or ill in clined could ever find occasion to think of Prof Williams except with respect and gratitude No one could be more tolerant of the overflow of young spirits or more chari table for youthful faults And with all of this kindness no one had reason to suppose it resulted I from want of knowledge The benevolent sage TTT Relief CURES AND PREVENTS jjISENTERY DIARRHEA CHOLERA MORBUS

Ann Arbor December 5 Judge Campbell delivered an address on Sunday afternoon in University Hall in memory of the late Prof George Palmer Williams who was connected with the University for more than forty years and whose name will ever be associated with the history of the growth of that institution Judge acquaintance and intimacy with Prof Williams cover a long period of years and was peculiarly well fitted to deliver an address on such a memorial occasion There was a large audience present I THE ADDRESS There are few more profitable possessions for any learned institution than the memories of those I who have made their lives a part of its history Removed from the dally round of labor and pro gress with its cares and doubts and jealousies as well as its passing triumphs they cause no envy and disturb no peace They appear in anew light as perpetual benefactors whos hands haVe built enduring houses and whose skill has set agencies in motion that may continue their work through years Those who can recall their living presence and tell their story are heard as chron iclers of worthy themes And when the time comes that never is very far off when they and all who knew them in the fiesh have passed into tradi tion together their names are spoken tenderly as children speak of honored ancestors It needs no stretch of fancy to think of them as still gliding silently among the scenes or their earthly labors and casting benignant glances on the young dis ciples who glean in the fields which they planted The very earth which they trod and the senseless walls that echoed their words become im bued with associations that sometimes last when the ousy scenes nave ceasea co he hnsv and the nonulous hive has become solitary There are not many who cannot feel with the English moralist when he first set his feet on tne noiy isiana wnere voiumya ucugnc me pure precepts of the Gospel man is little to be envied whose patriotism would not gain force upon the plains of Marathon or whose piety would not grow warmer among the ruins of It sometimes happens that an old man is himself able to hear some of the voices of the future and to look almost as a spirit might look from unseen haunts on the places that knew hitn when he had active work to do among therm When that gentle presence quietly passes away it makes no break in the daily course of things but those who have seen it flitting among the evergreens or slowly moving through the hall think of it as only gone for a while and would hardly be surprised at any time to meet it where its coming was always welcome Aud he too looking at life here as but the lieraid of the great hereafter might well say to it as it passed on toward the twilight: steal away give little warning Choose thine own time Say not goo night but in some brighter clime Bid me good A few weeks ago when autumn was just at hand we followed to the grave the venerable form of a good man whose memory we have met to day to recall and to honor The pleasant summer wind blew softly over bis grave and iu the calm surroundings of the quietly fading sea son there were no signs of gloom and no tokens of bitter sorrow The friends that came together from many quarters to pay their last tribute to one whom to know was to revere were not cast down as those who grieve without hope A peace that was almost cheerful came upon them all as they laid the worn out body in the ground in the sure trU't that his immortal part bad gone to a I better country Long and patiently he had waited onVuTtlflngs whU iA was as well inarmed all college and16
