HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT.

In the year 1838, near the center of the northwestern township of Randolph County, North Carolina, to meet a local demand for education, the citizens of the com- munity established Union Institute, a school of aca- demic grade. The late Brantley York, D. D., was chosen principal of this school, which position he held from 1838 to 1842. From this local institution of learning Trinity College has been developed. In the year 1840 the growth of the school made necessary the erection of a better and larger building, and application was made to the Legislature for a new charter. This was granted in 1841 by an act to incorporate the Union Institute Academy.

In the year 1842 Dr. York resigned the principalship of Union Institute, and Rev. B. Craven, then a young man, was chosen his successor. During the period from 1843 to 1850, the school developed from a local academy to a popular preparatory school, drawing patronage from a large section of North Carolina, as well as from adjoining States. This development suggested to the Trustees a broader idea of education, and they accordingly planned to put the school in direct relation to the educational needs of the public schools of North Carolina. They applied to the Legislature for a new charter, and on January 28, 1851, Union Institute was incorporated as a Normal College. In 1852 the Legislature amended the charter granted the

20 Trinity College.

previous year and authorized the institution to grant degrees. The first class, numbering two students, was graduated on July 28, 1853, with the degree of A. B. During the year 1853- 1854, a larger building was erected from moneys secured by loans from the State of North Carolina. In November, 1856, the Trustees of Normal College, through President Craven, pro- posed to the North Carolina Conference, then in session at Greensboro, to place the institution under the ownership and control of this ecclesiastical body. The North Carolina Conference took the following action:

1. That the Conference authorize and request the Board of Trustees of Normal College to raise by donations Twenty Thousand Dollars.

2. That all lands and property belonging to the College be conveyed to the Board of Trustees in trust for the North Carolina Conference.

3. That the Conference fill all vacancies in the Board.

4. That the Conference appoint a visiting committee, which committee shall have equal power with the Board as to the internal regulations and operations of the College.

Within the following two years the Trustees arranged to meet all the conditions of the above Conference action, and the North Carolina Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, became invested with the complete ownership and control. On Feb- ruary 16, 1859, the Legislature amended the charter and changed the name of the institution to Trinity College.

During the Civil War, from 1 861- 1865, the College shared the common fate of Southern colleges. Presi- dent Craven resigned in 1S63, and Prof. W. T. Ganna-

Trinity College. 21

way was elected his successor. In October, 1865, Dr. Craven was re-elected to the presidency. The College had suspended in April of that year, and was not re-opened till January, 1S66. Dr. Craven remained President of the College till his death, November 7, 1882. Prof. W. H. Pegram, a member of the Faculty, was elected Chairman and served till the close of the academic year, June, 1S83. Rev. M. L. Wood, D. D., was elected President in 1883, which position he resigned in December, 1S84, when Prof. J. F. Heitman was elected Chairman of the Faculty. This arrange- ment was continued till April, 18S7, when Dr. John F. Crowell was chosen President of the College.

The new conditions which had developed in the South seemed to demand that colleges should be placed in more direct contact with life, and President Crowell conceived the idea of enlarging the scope of college work and of removing the institution to some city from which it could more easily influence, and be influenced by, the active movements of the State. The Board of Trustees on May 7, 1889, passed the following resolutions:

Resolved (1). That after mature and prayerful consideration we believe it best for the interest of Methodism in North Caro- lina, and the cause of God, to move Trinity College to some prominent center within this State: Provided, There shall be tendered to this Board a proper guarantee of a suitable site, with buildings on it, of at least equal value, and as well suited for the uses of the College as those on the present site.

Resolved (2). That a committee of five be appointed to carry out the true intent of the above resolution, and report to the next annual meeting of the Board of Trustees.

At a meeting of the Trustees held in Greensboro, N.

22 Trinity College.

C, November 30, 1889, the following resolutions were adopted:

Resolved (1). That the Board of Trustees of Trinity College accept the offer of the citizens of Raleigh to erect a college building on the site designated, said building to be according to the plans and specifications mentioned in their offer.

Resolved (2). That we recommend the N. C. Annual Confer- ence of the M. E. Church, South, to authorize the removal of Trinity College in accordance with the above and former reso- lutions passed by this Board.

Resolved (3). That the grounds and buildings now owned and used at Trinity College, be held by the same Board of Trustees to be used as an academical department to prepare students for the College classes.

In accordance with these resolutions, through Dr. Crowell, the Conference was asked at its session in Greensboro, December, 1889, to grant permission to remove the College to the city of Raleigh. The Con- ference took the following action:

Resolved, That the Board of Trustees of Trinity College be and is hereby authorized and directed to move Trinity College to the city of Raleigh, when the citizens of said city shall have erected on the site designated and known as theBoylan lot, the building proposed and agreed to be built bv them: Provided, That before said College is moved, as aforesaid, there shall be made, executed and delivered to said Trustees a good and sufficient deed in fee simple, with proper covenants of warranty and seizin, conveying the lot and site designated to said Trus- tees and their successors in office, for the use and benefit of the North Carolina Conference, Methodist Episcopal Church, South, as it now exists, and for the use and benefit of such Conferences as may be hereafter created by the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, out of any territory within the State of North Carolina.

Sometime after this action of the Conference, the

Tkixity College. 23

citizens of Durham, X. C, offered the Trustees a monetary consideration to locate the College in their midst, which proposition the Trustees accepted. On January 21, 1891, the Legislature of North Carolina again amended the charter by authorizing the Trustees to remove the College to Durham and to hold property for its use not exceeding in the aggregate three mil- lions of dollars. Provision was also made with regard to the election and organization of the Board of Trustees.

By an act of the Legislature in 1891, with an amend- ment in 1897, the grounds of Trinity College were incorporated as a municipality under the name of Trinity College Park. The municipal government thus established remained in existence until 1901, when the campus of the College was included in the corporate limits of the city of Durham.

In September, 1892, the College opened its first ses- sion in the new plant, located at Durham. The plant then consisted of the Duke Building, the Epworth Hall, the Crowell Science Building, and seven residences. In May, 1S94, Dr. Crowell resigned the presidency of the College, and, on August 1, 1894, Rev. John C. Kilgo, D. D., was elected his successor. In May, 1897, the Trustees passed an order admitting women as students to all departments of the College. During the year 1S98 the Trinity Park School was established, and buildings for its use were erected. The Mary Duke Building was completed in the same year. In 1S99 the Angier Duke Gymnasium and the Craven Memorial Hall were erected, and the Crowell Science Building remodeled and equipped. In 1900 the Presi-

24 Teinity College.

dent's home and an additional professor's residence were erected. In 1 901- 1902 the new Library building and a new dormitory were erected, and a new heating plant was installed.

On account of the fact that the fundamental laws under which the College was managed were contained in an original charter and in several amendments, it was deemed best by the Board of Trustees, in June, 1902, to appoint a committee to make application to the Legislature for a new charter which should unify and harmonize the provisions of existing legislation. On February 28, 1903, the Legislature of North Caro- lina enacted the following charter:

AN ACT TO INCORPORATE TRINITY COLLEGE.

Trinity College. 43

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION.

The requirements are defined in terms of units. A unit as thus used means a subject of study pursued throughout an academic year at a high school, with five recitations a week, the prescribed amount of work being completed. Fourteen units are required for ad- mission to all groups.

FOR ADMISSION TO GROUP A.

Thirteen units must be in the following specified subjects, and one must be selected from the optional subjects described below.

History — Two Units.

The subjects should be those included in one of the following groups:

J. English and American History, each one year. — The examinations will be based on the material in- cluded in such books as Walker's Essentials in Eng- lish History } Coman and Kendall's History of Engla?id or Montgomery's Stude?it,s History of England (one unit), and Hart's Essentials of Ameriean History, Channing's Student s History or McLaughlin's History of the American Natio?i (one unit).

2. Ancient and Mediaeval History, each one year. — The examinations will be based on the ground covered by West's Ancient History or Wolfson's Essentials in Ancient History (one unit), and Bourne's Mediaeval and Modern History, Robinson's Western Europe or Myers' Mediaeval a?id Modern Europe (one unit).

English — Three Units. English.— The candidate is expected to show a

44 Trinity College.

knowlege of grammatical construction and inflec- tions, an acquaintance with literature, such as may be obtained from a careful reading of the books given in the lists below, and such a training in writing English as will enable him to write with accuracy as to spelling, idiom, punctuation, use of capital letters, formation of the sentence, and division into paragraphs.

The ability to write English will be regarded as of more importance than knowledge of the prescribed books. No candidate will be accepted whose writing is seriously defective. This requirement demands constant practice in composition under the direction of competent instructors.

Two lists of books are given, one for study, the other for reading. The examination on the books for study and practice will presuppose the thorough study of each of the books named. The examination will be upon matter, form, and structure.

The second list contains books to be read out of class. The candidate will be required to present evidence of a general knowledge of the subject-matter of these books, and to answer simple questions on the lives of the authors. The form of examination will usually be the writing of a paragraph or two on each of several topics to be chosen by the candidate from a consider- able number — perhaps ten or fifteen — set before him in the examination paper. The treatment of these topics is designed to test the candidate's power of clear and accurate expression, and will call for only a general knowledge of the substance of the books.

In place of a part or the whole of this test, the can- didate may present an exercise book, properly certified

by his instructor, containing composition or other written work done in connection with the reading of these books.

The student must be able to convert simple English prose into Latin.

The Roman system of pronunciation is exclusively used in all the Latin work of the College course, and applicants for admission are expected to be well drilled in it. A brief scheme of approximately equivalent sounds in English follows. The long and the short vowels have the same sounds, differing only in the time taken in pronunciation, the long consuming twice the time of the short vowels. Long a is pronounced as in father, short a as in papa, long e as in pr<?y, short e as in eh, long i as in mach/ne, short i as in p/t, long o as in note, short o as in obey, long u as oo in hoot, short u as in p«ll, long and shorty as the German ii in fur. The diphthongal sounds are to be made by the rapid union of the sounds of the component vowels: ce as ai in azsle, au as o u in out, ei as in <?zght, eu nearly as in f^d, oe as oi in boil, ui as oo-ee approaching we. Most consonants are pronounced as in English. The follow-

50 Trinity College.

ing points need to be noticed: b before s or t has the sound of p; can&g are always hard as in ^romeand^et; h is silent in all purely Latin words; i consonant has the sound of i in valzant; m is pronounced as in Eng- lish, except at the end of a word, in which position it is scarcely sounded; n before c,g, and q as in anchor, anguish etc.; r is to be trilled; s is always harsh as in hiss, never voiced as in his; zc consonant nearly equals English w; x as ks; z as dz.

Greek — Two Units.

J. Grammar and Composition.

2. Xenophon. — First four books of the Anabasis.

The required proficiency may be attained by study- ing Greek in a systematic course of five exercises a week, extending through at least two school years. The student should be steadily and persistently drilled in declension, in comparison, in conjugation, in the principal parts and synopses of verbs, and in word analysis, until he has acquired a complete mastery of Greek forms. He should be trained to note the deriva- tion and composition of words and their primary mean- ings. He should have a working knowledge of the rules of syntax and be able to construe readily. He should be constantly encouraged to translate the sim- pler passages at sight; and, above all else, to translate his Greek into simple, plain, and correct English. Reading the Greek text aloud in such a way as to give the sense should be made a part of every recitation, and an effort should be made to appreciate the text without translating it.

The work in Greek prose should be connected with, and grow out of, the work done in the daily recitations.

Trinity College. 51

FOR ADMISSION TO GROUP B.

i. History — Two Units. — As in Group A.

2. English — Three Units. — As in Group A.

3. Mathematics — Two Units. — As in Group A.

52 Trinity College.

4. Latin — Four Units. — As in Group A.

5. French or German — Two Units.

(a) French.— (1) Elementary grammar and at least 100 to 150 pages of approved reading; (2) grammar completed and 200 to 300 pages of approved reading.

The work in French for the first year should com- prise: (1) careful drill in pronunciation; (2) the rudi- ments of grammar, including the inflection of the regu- lar and the more common irregular verbs, the plural of nouns, the inflection of adjectives, participles and pronouns; the use of personal pronouns, common ad- verbs, prepositions, and conjunctions; the order of words in the sentence, and the elementary rules of syntax; (3) abundant easy exercises, designed not only to fix in the memory the forms and principles of grammar, but also to cultivate readiness in casting the thought into French moulds of expression; (4) the reading of from 100 to 150 duodecimo pages of graduated texts, with constant practice in translating into French easy variations of the sentences read (the teacher giving the English), and in reproducing from memory sentences previously read; (5) writing French from dictation.

A selection from the following list of texts is rec- ommended: Thieme and EfHnger's or Fraser and Squair's Grammar; Super's or Rollins' French Reader; Chateaubriand, Les Aventures du Dernier Abencerage; Halevy, & Abbe Constantin\ Merimee, Colo?nba; Sand, La Petite Fadette; Verne, Expedition de la Jeune-Hardie

During the second year the work should comprise: (1) a thorough review of the grammar work of the previous year and a study of the irregular verbs and

Trinity College. 53

the uses of the subjunctive mood; (2) grammatical exercises and easy paraphrasing of parts of texts read; (3) the reading of from 200 to 300 pages of easy mod- ern prose. A selection from the following list of texts is recommended:

Buffum, French Short Stories; Chateaubriand, Atala; Daudet, La Belle JVivemaise; Dumas, La Tulipe Noire; I^abiche et Martin , Le Voyage de M. Perrichon; Laboulaye, Contes Bleus; Malot, Satis Famille; Mau- passant, Ten Short Stories; Michelet, Histoire de France; Pailleron, Le Mo?ide on V on s'etinuie; Sand, La Mare au Diable.

Teachers will find useful The Report of the Com- mittee of Twelve of The Moder?i Language Assoczatio?i. Those using such grammars as suggested above will find helpful the following works on French pronuncia- tion: Passy, The Sounds of the French La?ignage, Oxford; Matzke, A Primer of French Prominciation; Passy- Rambeau, Chrestomathie Francaise. The Internatioiial Freyich- English Dictionary employs the same alphabet for indicating pronunciation. The best dictionary en- tirely in French is the Dictionnaire de la Langue />#;z- <raz^(Hatzfeld-Darmsteter), Paris, 2 vols. Armstrong, The Syntax of the French Verb is convenient for ref- erence. Lanson, Histoire de la Litterature Francaise, 1 vol., is a compact and authoritative reference book on French literature. The Petit Larousse Illustre, ivol., is a handy little encyclopaedia with a list of proper names at the end.

(b) German. — (1) Elementary grammar and at least 75 to 100 pages of approved reading; (2) elementary grammar completed and at least 150 to 200 pages of approved reading.

54 Teinity College.

During the first year the work should comprise: (i) careful drill in pronunciation; (2) memorizing and frequent repeating of easy colloquial sentences; (3) drill in the rudiments of grammar, that is, in the inflection of the articles, of such nouns as belong to the language of everyday life, of adjectives, pro- nouns, weak verbs, and the more usual strong verbs, also in the use of the more common prepositions, the simpler uses of the modal auxiliaries, and the elemen- tary rules of syntax and word order; (4) abundant easy exercises designed not only to fix in mind the forms and principles of grammar, but also to cultivate readiness in the reproduction of natural forms of ex- pression; (5) the reading of from 75 to 100 pages of graduated texts from a reader, with constant practice in translating into German easy variations of sen- tences selected from the reading lesson (the teacher giving the English), and in the reproduction from memory of sentences previously read.

During the second year the work should comprise: (1) the reading of from 150 to 200 pages of literature in the form of easy stories and plays; (2) accompany- ing practice, as before, in translating into German easy variations of the matter read, and also in the off- hand reproduction, sometimes oral and sometimes written, of the substance of short and easy selected passages; (3 ) continued drill in the rudiments of gram- mar, to the end of enabling the pupil, first, to use his knowledge with facility in the formation of sentences; and, secondly, to state his knowledge correctly in the technical language of grammar.

Stories suitable for elementary reading can be selected

Trinity College. 55

from the following list: Andersen's Maerchen and Bil- derbuch ohne Bilder; Arnold's Fritz auf Ferien; Baum- bach's Die Nonne and De? Schwiegersohn; Gerstacker's Gerrnelshausen; Heyse's E' Arrabbiata, Das Maedchen von Treppi, and Ajifang tind Ende; Hillern's Hoher als die Kirche; Jensen's Die braune Erica; Leander's Traeu- mereien, and Kleine Geschichten; Seidel's Maerchen; Stokl's Unter dem Christbazim; Storm's Immensee and Geschichten aus der To7i?ie; Zschokke's Der zerbrochene Krtig.

A good selection of reading matter for the second year would be Andersen's Maerchen or Bilderbuch or Leander's Traeumereien , to the extent of, say, forty pages. After that, such a story as Hauff's Das kalte Herz or Zschokke's Der zerbrochene Krug; then Hoher als die Kirche or Immensee; next, a good story by Heyse, Baumbach, or Seidel; lastly, Der Prozess.

Teachers will find many suggestions that will aid them in doing this work in the following books: Grandgent's Germa?i and English Sounds, Methods of leaching Modern Languages, Report of the Committee of Twelve of The Modern Langitage Association.

If the applicant for admission to College has not studied either French or German, the first year's course of study in either may be taken in College, though it may not be reckoned in the number of hours required for graduation. Any such condi- tioned student who finishes French 1 or German 1, and who does with a tutor an approved amount of reading in addition, may be credited with two units on his admission requirements.

SPECIAL STUDENTS.

Students of mature age not fully prepared to enter the Freshman class may be admitted as Special Stu- dents. Such students are required to pass the regular entrance examinations in the subjects they propose to take, and all are required to present for admission English, History, and Mathematics. They are also required to take fifteen hours of recitation work a week.

ACCREDITED SCHOOLS.

A list of accredited schools is kept, and is revised from year to year. Schools that have sent to the Col-

Trinity College. 57

lege students well prepared for the Freshman class, are entered upon the list. An applicant for the Fresh- man class who brings from one of these schools a certificate properly made out and signed by the principal and teachers of the different subjects, is given credit for the work certified. The applicant must, however, have completed the course of the school from which he comes. If the amount of work is sufficient, he is admitted to the Freshman class without examination. Blank forms for this purpose have been prepared and will be sent on request. Every applicant for admission by certificate is advised to secure a blank and have it properly filled out and signed. This should be pre- sented when application is made for entrance.

JOINT ENTRANCE EXAMINATIONS.

Trinity College will accept at their face value the examination papers authorized by the Entrance Exam- ination Committee of the Association of Colleges and Preparatory Schools of the Southern States. These must be properly vouched for and sent sealed to the College for grading.

PROFESSOR GILL AND ASSISTANT PROFESSOR GATES.

During the Freshman and Sophomore years, Latin is required of all students in Groups A and B. More advanced students, having acquired the ability to interpret the language with com- parative ease, have their attention directed to an appreciation of the literary value of the authors studied. To this end indi- vidual research is encouraged. In all courses the history and monuments of the country contribute largely to the full under- standing of the literature read.

Trinity College. 67

quired of all students electing more than one graduate course in Latin.

Courses 7 to 11 are so arranged that any one may be taken without reference to the others. That the student may have the opportunity to choose the field of study most congenial to himself, the selection of the courses to be given any year is made after consultation with the students of the department. Dur- ing the year 1909-1910, course 10 was given by Professor Gill.

All courses are open to graduates who have taken at least three years of collegiate Latin, and to Seniors at the discretion of the instructors. Some acquaintance with German or French is expected of all graduate students.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH.

PROFESSORS FEW AND BROWN AND MESSRS. SPENCE, PEARSON, FLOWERS, AND GOLDSTEIN.

Three distinct aims are kept in view by the English depart- ment:

(1). The department undertakes to give an opportunity for considerable practice in writing English. This is begun in the Freshman year, and written work is called for through all the four years.

(2) . All the courses taken together afford opportunity to con- sider the origin and development of the English language and literature.

(3). Training is given in literary interpretation and apprecia- tion. In the Freshman year the student is trained to interpret the meaning of given works of literature, special stress being laid on the subject-matter. In the Sophomore year a general survey of English literature is made with a view to giving the student some idea of the various movements of our literary history and specific knowledge of some of the more important works in English literature. In the elective courses a thorough study of the important periods of English literature is under- taken.

DEPARTMENT OF GERMAN.

PROFESSOR WANNAMAKER AND ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VAUGHAN.

The department attempts in the courses offered below to meet the needs of two classes of students, those intending to make a systematic and prolonged study of the German lan- guage and literature, and those wishing to acquire a ready read- ing knowledge of modern, especially scientific, German prose. The opportunity to write a great many exercises and see them carefully corrected, to take frequent dictations in German, and to hear the language spoken a part of each hour, ought to put the student in position to understand a connected lecture in German. The Deutscher Verein offers a greater opportunity for conversational German than is possible in the class-room.

DEPARTMENT OF ROMANCE LANGUAGES.

PROFESSOR WEBB AND ASSISTANT PROFESSOR VAUGHAN.

The courses in French during the first two years are designed to meet the needs of the general student who desires to acquire the ability to read modern French at sight. The first year is devoted to the mastery of the essential principles of pronuncia- tion, grammar, and verb-forms, and to the reading of easy French. The primary aims of the second year are to give the student a wide working vocabulary and to cultivate the ability to translate accurately and to read intelligently. As a means to this end most of the time is spent in reading and translating assigned passages from the works of modern authors. A fair proportion of the time is given to drill and pronuncation, composition, and writing French at dictation. Considerable time is given to reading and translating French at sight.

Courses 3 and 4 are alternate courses devoted to the study of French literature, emphasizing that of the seventeenth and

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS.

PROFESSOR EDWARDS AND MR. EGERTON.

The work in Physics is placed, as far as possible, on a labor- atory basis. The object of the elementary instruction is not

88 Trinity College.

so much to impart a mere knowledge of phenomena as to culti- vate correct habits of thought and observation and to develop, as largely as possible, the true scientific spirit.

In the advanced courses the work has two general purposes: first, a purely scientific presentation of the subject is given, and second, there are several courses dealing with engineer- ing problems. An undergraduate student is given opportu- nity to prepare himself thoroughly for graduate work in Physics or for further courses in the various branches of engi- neering.

1. Elementary Physics. — Two lectures and two hours of lab- oratory work per week, counting as a three-hour course. The recitations cover in a very elementary way the more funda- mental phenomena of Physics. In the laboratory the student is expected to perform and neatly record about sixty qualita- tive and quantitative experiments. Tues., Thiers., Sat., at 10.

FOR JUNIORS AND SENIORS.

2a. Mechanics, Heat, and Electricity. — This course is intended for students of engineering but is quite broad in its scope and will prove of value to the general student. Two lectures are given and two laboratory hours are required a week. Tues., Thurs., Sat., at 9.

2b. Sound and Light. — This course is a development of the topics covered in Physics 1, only in a more comprehensive and detailed way. 3 hours a week.

FOR SENIORS AND GRADUATES.

3. Electrical Engineering. — This course is divided into three parts: general theory of electricity and magnetism; the theory of direct current machinery; the theory of alternating current machinery. 3 hours a week.

4. Theory of Heat. — This course is based on Preston's The- ory of Heat. Particular attention is given to that part of the theory which forms the basis of the study of steam-engines, boilers, and systems of heating and ventilation.

5a. Physics of the Ion. — The latest development concerning the conduction of electricity through gases is discussed, and

Trinity College. 89

some treatment is given the subject of radioactivity {first half- year) .

5b. Elements of the Electromagnetic Theory. — This course gives an introduction to the principles of the electromagnetic theory as presented by Maxwell, Heaveside, and others (second half-year) .

[Other courses may be arranged to meet special requirements, but not more than one graduate course will be given in the same year.]

DEPARTMENT OF BIOLOGY.

PROFESSOR WOLFE.

The equipment of the biological laboratory and that of its ally, the museum of natural history, together with the library, make ample provision of apparatus, material, and books for the various elementary courses and, also, at present, for ad- vanced work in the morphology and cytology of plants and animals. The method of the department consists primarily in the critical examination in the laboratory of the structure of plants and animals, extended to microscopic detail; and, also, in the careful observation in the field of their gross structure, habits, habitat, and life-relations, together with lectures sup- plementary to, though squarely founded upon, such individual work. The effort is, therefore, to present science from the standpoint of the student's observation of the facts upon which the science is founded, with the ultimate aim of thereby devel- oping powers of observation, judgment, and reasoning, such as will form a real contribution to general culture, and, at the same time, constitute a correct foundation for professional or inves- tigative work along biological lines. In courses requiring work in the laboratory, two hours of such work is reckoned the equivalent of one hour of recitation. A laboratory fee of two dollars a term, intended to cover material used and breakage, is charged students electing such courses.

DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY.

PROFESSOR PEGRAM AND MR. PROCTOR.

Instruction in Chemist^ is given by means of lectures, text- books, illustrative experiments by the instructor, and labora- tory practice. All students ingeneral inorganic Chemistry are required to execute in the laboratory a series of selected experiments illustrating the principles of the science as set forth in the lectures. These laboratory exercises are intended to develop skill in the preparation and use of apparatus, a practical knowledge of the elements and their compounds, a deeper insight into the nature of chemical phenomena, and especially the power to learn of nature by observation and experiment. The courses are intended primarily for those who wish to become well grounded in the principles of Chemistry; but they also meet the demands of those who wish to pursue the study of Chemistry for technical or professional purposes. A description of the laboratories and equipment of the depart- ment is given in another part of this catalogue.

GENERAL REGULATIONS.

THE COLLEGE YEAR.

The college year is divided into two terms. The first term begins September 7; the second, February 1. Commencement is held on Tuesday and Wednesday after the first Sunday in June.

TIME OF ENTRANCE.

Patrons of the College and students who intend to enter the Freshman class are reminded that the en- trance examinations are held at the opening of the session in September, and that this is the proper time to enter. If an applicant for admission cannot come early in the year, it is better for him to wait, except in very unusual cases, until the opening of the next year. It is important for all students to be present on the first day of the session.

MATRICULATION, REGISTRATION, AND ENROLLMENT.

All new students must appear before the Committee on Admission, who will assign cards to those who are recommended for admission. These cards must be presented at the Registrar's office at the time of ma- triculation. All students, both old and new, are required to matriculate at the beginning of each term and to obtain from the Registrar certificates of matricu- lation, which serve also as enrollment cards. Stu- dents who fail to matriculate on the appointed day will be charged an additional fee of one dollar, unless

Trinity College. 97

they present to the President a satisfactory excuse for such failure. No student will be admitted to any class without a matriculation card.

RJELIGIOUS EXERCISES. A devotional service is conducted in the Chapel every morning of the college week except Saturday, and all students are expected to attend this service. Be- sides, it is expected that every student will attend public services on the Sabbath in one of the city churches which he or his parents may select. Occa- sional sermons are delivered before the students in the Craven Memorial Hall by the President of the College. He also conducts on the first Sunday afternoon of each month a class-meeting for students.

NUMBER OF HOURS OF RECITATION WORK.

No student is allowed to take less than sixteen nor more than nineteen hours of recitation work a week without special permission of the Faculty. Students in the Junior and Senior classes must submit their elective courses to the President for his approval. All students must present to the Registrar for permanent record a complete list of their courses and the number of hours. Elective courses beyond the number re- quired for a degree may be marked "extra." No course once entered upon may be dropped without per- mission of the Faculty.

CLASS STANDING.

A student may not rank as a Senior if he has work back of the Junior year or more than one study in the Junior class; and a student may not rank as a Junior

98 Trinity College.

if he has work back of the Sophomore year or more than one study in the Sophomore class.

No student who has any work on which he has pre- viously failed is allowed to enter the Senior class as a candidate for graduation.

EXAMINATIONS.

Two written examinations are held during the year, one in January and the other in May. These exami- nations are three hours in length, and the record made in them, combined with that made in class recitations, constitutes the class-standing of the student.

Non-resident work will not be accepted, and exam- inations on such work will not be given. This rule, however, does not apply to those students whose ab- sence from classes is unavoidable and of short duration.

REGULATIONS REGARDING MARKS AND CONDITIONS.

The following are the regulations adopted by the Faculty in November, 1903:

1. Term-marks shall be reported so as to indicate one of four things:

(a) Passed without Condition. — A mark of 70 or over shall indicate that a student has passed a course without condition.

(b) Conditioned. — A mark of at least 50 and less than 70 shall indicate that a student has been conditioned; that is, that upon complying with the following regulations, he may receive credit for a course without taking it again in class.

(c) Failed. — A mark of less than 50 shall indicate that a student has failed entirely in a course and that, in order to re- ceive credit, he shall be obliged to take the subject again in class-

(d) Absent from Final Examination. — A mark of (a) shall indicate that a student was absent from the final examination.

Trinity College. 99

2. A student who has been conditioned with a mark of at least 50 and less than 65 may remove the condition by passing a satisfactory examination upon the whole course. But one such examination shall be granted. In case the examination is passed, a mark of 70 shall be reported, thus removing the condition. When a mark (a) has been reported and the stu- dent's absence from the final examination has been excused by the administrative authority, he shall have a right to an ex- amination in place of the final and to a second examination in case he does not pass the first one. If he passes the first ex- amination, the term mark reported shall be that actually earned; if he passes the second, a mark of 70 shall be reported. A student absent from a final examination without a valid excuse shall be considered as having failed in the course.

3. A student who is conditioned with a mark of 65 or above may, in the discretion of the professor of the department con- cerned, remove the condition by securing a mark of SO in re- lated work given by the same department in the following term. Or he may, in the discretion of the professor, remove the condition by doing assigned reading or written work. Otherwise, he shall remove the condition by examination. When the condition has been removed, a mark of 70 shall be reported. When the condition is due to absences for which the student has been properly excused, the professor shall, upon the removal of the condition, report the term mark actually earned.

4. All first-term conditions shall be made up before the close of the second term. All second-term conditions shall be made up before October 1 of the following school year. However, in case a student shall, with the consent of the professor, attempt to remove a condition by securing a mark of SO in a related course in the following term and shall fail to secure 80, the department concerned shall allow him four weeks additiona during the college session for the removal of the condition by an examination. In case of failure to remove the condition, he shall take the work again in class.

Excuses for absences from examination are acted upon

100 Tkinity College.

by the same committee which considers excuses for absences from classes.

ABSENCES FROM CLASSES.

The following are the regulations adopted by the Faculty in May, 1906:

1. Each instructor shall report daily to the office on printed slips provided for the purpose all absences from his work that have occurred during the day.

2. A permanent record shall be kept of each student's attend- ance. This record shall be under the care of the administrative officer and available for information of the Executive Commit- tee mentioned in article 3.

3. An Executive Committee ofthree shall be one of the stand- ing committees of the Faculty. This committee shall pass on excuses for absences, and keep a record of all excuses granted. They shall also draft for publication a list of the excuses they will consider valid and the regulation governing the presenta- tion of the same.

4. A student who has four unexcused absences from a three- hour course, or one from the one-hourcourse in the Bible, shall be warned by the Executive Committee.

5. When a student has six unexcused absences from one department in any one term, or twenty from all departments, the Executive Committee shall report him to the Faculty, and he shall be suspended for the rest of the term.

6. All absences, whether excused or unexcused, shall be made up to the satisfaction of the department concerned, and further, in case a student has been absent more than fifteen per cent of the exercises actually given in a course, he may be debarred from the final examination in that subject by action of the Faculty on recommendation of the instructor.

SCHOLARSHIP REGULATION FOR ATHLETIC AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.

The following regulation was adopted by the Faculty on January 28, 1909:

Teixity College. 101

1. No student shall be eligible to represent the College in any- public athletic contest, debate, concert, or other such public event, who has against him more than two conditions on the work of the preceding term.

2. Students who are candidates for participation in such contests or representations, or who are members of organiza- tions engaging in them, are also required to be doing satis- factorily the work of the current term. If such a student shall be failing in the work of any department, it shall be the duty of the professor concerned to interview the student personally and to warn him that he is failing and is liable to be reported to the Faculty for his deficiency. If the student fails to bring his current work in the department up to a passing standard within the next week, the professor concerned shall report him to the Faculty, and the report shall be noted on the minutes. The Secretary of the Faculty shall also notify the student by official letter that he has been so reported. If more than two re- ports as provided above are made against a student by two or more different departments during any term, the student shall be notified by the President or Dean that, in accordance with the rule of the Faculty, he has been removed from the team or organization concerned.

3. In order to facilitate the enforcement of section 2, it is fur- ther provided that, as soon as any team or organization rep- resenting the College shall begin its season of practice or prepa- ration, it shall be the duty of the chairman of the appropriate committee of the Faculty to report to the administration the names of all candidates for such team or organization. These names shall be supplied by the administration to the Faculty.

ABSENCES BEFORE AND AFTER THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS.

A student who incurs an absence during the week preceding the Christmas vacation, or the week follow- ing the re-opening in January, shall not be allowed to re-enter College until he has satisfied the. Faculty that

102 Trinity College.

his absence was unavoidable, or until he has paid a re-entrance fee and passed extra examinations in the departments from which he was absent. The fee shall be two dollars if not more than one day is missed and one dollar additional for every other day or part of a day missed. The examination shall not be more than three hours nor less than one hour in duration, accord- ing to the number of days missed; and the grade obtained in such examinations shall enter into the stu- dent's record for the year.

ABSENCE FROM TOWN.

No student is allowed to leave town without the per- mission of the President.

REGULATIONS REGARDING PUBLIC LECTURES.

All public entertainments, lectures, or addresses given under the auspices of the College or of any organization in any way connected with the College are under the supervision of the Public Lecture Committee of the Faculty. All dates and programs must be approved by this committee, except in cases where such public en- tertainments have been placed under the supervision of a special committee of the Faculty.

REPORTS.

Reports stating the number of absences from classes and the proficiency in studies are sent to parents or guardians after the intermediate and final examinations.

MATERIAL EQUIPMENT.

LIBRARY.

The library is in charge of a trained librarian and all necessary assistants. It is the aim of the manage- ment to make it a place in which students can find the best references to help them in their class-work, and also to furnish an opportunity for students who wish to make special research. It is with these ends in view that purchases of books have been made. The library contains a good working reference list in each department of the college curriculum. It is especially strong in American history and in English literature.

One of the chief features of the library is the Ethel Carr Peacock Memorial Collection, given by Dr. and Mrs. Dred Peacock, of High Point, N. C. This col- lection, containing 7,049 volumes, was presented as a memorial to their daughter, Ethel Carr Peacock, whose name it bears. It is to be maintained as a separate collection, and special stacks are set apart for its accommodation. It is especially rich in material on North Carolina history, and it also contains files of many American periodicals and newspapers.

The Anne Roney Shakspere Collection, made possi- ble by the gifts of Miss Anne Roney, of Durham, N. C. , contains many rare and valuable editions of the Shaks- pere text.

A special collection of books in economics and politi- cal science has also been presented to the library by Mr. J. A. Long, of Roxboro, N. C.

104 Trinity College.

The establishment of a law school has made it neces- sary to enlarge materially the collection of books in that department. A large number of law treatises and the essential reports and law cyclopedias have been secured. The books are well selected, and the law stu- dent will find himself supplied with all of the works necessary for the prosecution of his studies. Complete sets of reports of many of the more important states have been purchased.

HISTORICAL MUSEUM.

Early in 1895 the Trinity College Historical Society founded an historical museum. It proceeded to gather rare objects of historical interest till it has at this time secured a large collection of valuable relics. A spacious and beautiful room has been provided for them in the new fire-proof library building. The collection con- sists of war relics, objects illustrating manners and customs, old documents, files of newspapers, and various Indian remains. The collection of Confederate money is especially good. There are also in the possession of the museum many valuable manuscripts which relate to North Carolina history. Persons who will give or lend relics will confer a favor by addressing Professor W. K. Boyd.

THE MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY.

The Museum of Natural History is located in a large room 33 feet by 39 feet on the second floor of the Crowell Science Building. It is intended to make the museum a factor in the educational work of the College not only

106 Trinity College.

by supplying various courses with illustrative material but also by putting before the public in the most instructive way the various products of nature. It is desired to exhibit, as far as possible, type-specimens of the more important rocks, minerals, ores, plants, and animals to be found the world over, and especially those specimens represented in North Carolina. The specimens, properly labeled, are grouped and arranged in such a way that the collection will be most instruc- tive. The collection now consists of between 1,500 and 2,000 specimens, many of which are valuable. Thus a real advance toward the ideal of a museum outlined above has been made. Friends of the Col- lege are invited to cooperate with the Curator by col- lecting such specimens as happen to be available. Inquiries concerning methods of collecting and preserv- ing specimens will gladly be answered by the Cura- tor of the Museum of Natural History. Visitors are admitted to the museum at all reasonable hours.

PHYSICAL LABORATORY.

The Physical Laboratory occupies seven rooms on the first floor of the Crowell Science Building. The various laboratories are equipped with modern apparatus well adapted to the courses undertaken. A large lecture- room is provided with a stereopticon equipment. The optical and electrical laboratories afford facilities for research work.

Among the notable features of this equipment are a complete line of spectrometers, both grating and prism; ample facilities for photographic spectroscopy; photo- meter rooms equipped with Lummer-Brodhun, Bunsen and Joly photometers; an exceptionally good collection

Here have been provided a lecture-room, one laboratory each for general chemistry, analytical chem- istry, and physical chemistry, a balance-room and a store-room. The department is supplied with all chem- icals and apparatus needed in the practical work of the courses offered.

GYMNASIUM.

For the physical training and development of students there has been provided a gymnasium thoroughly equipped with all modern apparatus and conveniences. This is under the charge of a director, who will pre- scribe such exercises as may be best suited for the physical development of each student. Except when excused by the Director, Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors, are required to attend these exercises. The gymnasium will also be open for voluntary exercise at such times as may be designated by the Director, who will always be present when the gymnasium is open.

COLLEGE ORGANIZATIONS.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION.

The Alumni Association of Trinity College is com- posed of graduates and former students of the College. The association holds a dinner, followed by the annual meeting, on Tuesday of commencement week each year. It is the custom of the association to invite an alumnus of the College to deliver an address at this annual meeting. At the last meeting this address was delivered by W. A. Lambeth, of the class of 1901, Winston, N. C. According to the charter of the Col- lege, the alumni are entitled to twelve representatives on the Board of Trustees. At the annual meeting of the association all vacancies in the alumni representa- tion on the board are filled.

The Association at its annual meetings also elects four representatives to serve on the athletic council of the College. The officers of the association are: Pres- ident, Hon. Lee S. Overman, Salisbury, N. C; Vice- President, Rev. M. Bradshaw, Durham, N. C. ; Secretary and Treasurer, Robert L. Flowers, Durham, N. C; Chairman of Executive Committee, J. E. Pegram, Durham, N. C.

A number of county Trinity College Alumni Associa- tions have been formed, and this number is being added to each year. Since many of these associations have adopted a uniform constitution and by-laws, it is believed that it will be of interest to the alumni who are

The societies have an annual intersociety debate. As a means of self-discipline and a bond of fellowship, these societies serve a valuable purpose in the educa- tion of young men. No student is obliged to become a member of either, though the advantages offered are well worth the expense incident to membership.

Weekly meetings are held during the college year in the society halls on the first floor of the Washington Duke Building.

YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.

The Young Men's Christian Association of Trinity

Trinity College. 115

College was organized in 1887, as the successor of an unaffiliated association of Christian young men previ- ously existing. This association is a member of the state association, and sends representatives to its con- ventions. Delegates are sent each year to the summer schools. It holds meetings every Wednesday evening in a hall which has been set apart and furnished for the association in the Epworth Building. The asso- ciation also holds every year a series of special re- ligious services. The services during the present year were conducted by the Reverend L. P. Howard, Rocky Mount, N. C. Under the auspices of the association are conducted mission and Bible-study classes. During the year the association provides also for a number of addresses to be delivered by members of the Faculty, members of the different churches in the city of Dur- ham and elsewhere, and by prominent represenatives of different business activities.

The association endeavors to give every assistance to new students during the opening days of college, to be of service at all times to both new and old stu- dents, and to organize and conserve the spiritual inter- ests of the student-body. A bureau of assistance is conducted by the association, the purpose of which is to find employment for young men in need of financial assistance both during the college year and vacation. A reception to new students is given annually at the opening of College in September.

The officers of the association are: president, H. G. Hedrick; vice-president, G. W. Vick; secretary, H. R. Hunter; treasurer, F. S. Bennett; advisory com- mittee, President Kilgo and Professors Cranford and Wooten.

HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

The Trinity College Historical Society was organiz- ed April 4, 1892. Its purpose is to stimulate an in- terest in North Carolina history by the preparation of papers relative thereto, and to collect and preserve his- torical documents, books, papers, pamphlets, and other material. In the new library building, which is itself fireproof, a modern fire proof vault is provided for the storage of the more valuable documents of the society. This gives the best of facilities for preserving such rare and important documents as are often entrusted to the chance of loss in private homes. In the same build- ing there is a room set apart as an historical museum, where records and relics of interest are exhibited. The society, therefore, urges those who have books, docu- ments, or relics of historical interest to place them in its keeping, either as gifts or as loans. During recent years 2061 books and pamphlets and 4196 manuscripts have been collected and are now being arranged, class- ified, and catalogued for the use of investigators, sub- ject to the rules of the authorities having them in charge. This society also issues an annual publication, containing select papers read at its meetings and doc- uments in its possession. The eighth number was issued in 1909. The officers of the organization are: president, Professor W. K. Boyd; vice-president, H. G. Hedrick; secretary and treasurer, W. G. Matton; cur- ator of museum, H. R. Hunter.

SCIENCE CLUB.

The Science Club is an organization of students and members of the Faculty, instituted in September, 1898.

Trinity College. 117

It is intended to conserve and stimulate the growing interest in scientific methods and results. To this end, at the monthly meetings current items of scientific interest and the results of original observation and re- search are presented and discussed. Furthermore, the club has instituted measures for greatly enlarging the collection of illustrative material for the museum. The president of the club is W. M. Marr, and the secretary and treasurer, P. J. Johnson.

DEBATE-COUNCIL.

The debate-council supervises and systematizes the work of debating in the College. The council has con- trol of the arrangements for all public debates. Its organization and powers are set forth in the following paper, which was adopted by the Faculty and by the Columbian and Hesperian literary societies:

i. This council shall consist of three members of the Faculty and two representatives of each of the literary societies, and shall meet at such stated times as the council may agree upon.

2. The council shall do all in its power to encour- age intercollegiate debating, and arrange such debates with other institutions as will be for the best interests of the College. It shall have the power to arrange all terms with institutions, to determine the questions for debate, to select judges, and to supervise the prelimi- nary contests.

3. In the intersociety debates the council shall ap- prove the question, the date, and the judges.

4. For the general improvement of debating, the council shall endeavor to increase the material in the library available for debating, and shall suggest sub-

THE FORTNIGHTLY CLUB.

The Fortnightiy Club, now in its third year and well established, is composed of those members of the Junior and Senior classes who have previously mani- fested some literary ability and taste, and who are especially interested in literature. With the aid of the members from the Faculty such students find in this club an opportunity and stimulus to give careful writ- ten expression to their thoughts, and in the regular meetings a congenial audience for their productions. Original work is heartily encouraged, and the study of influential writers, both ancient and modern, is em- phasized. While not the main aim of the club, the so- cial feature is especially pleasant. All members enter unreservedly into this part of each meeting. The club

Trinity College. 119

meets twice a month. The officers of the club are: president, W. H. Wannamaker; vice-president, W. B. West; secretary, W. M. Marr; treasurer, A. M. Proctor.

Sec. 10. No person who has played on a regular organized baseball team which is a member of a baseball league shall be eligible to play on any team in this association, whether he received compensation or not.

It has always been the policy of Trinity College to render to such young men all proper assistance within its power. For this reason expenses have been put at the lowest possible. point. Besides, such young men are credited for their tuition-fees, payable after they leave college. In such cases the student gives his note to the College.

OUTLINE OF WORK.

The full course of law will occupy three college years of from nine to ten months each. The work of the first two years will equip for the practice of law the student of ordinary intelligence and diligence. He will be able to advise clients in ordinary, practical matters coming before the practicing lawyer, to draw the instruments usually committed to lawyers, and to prosecute and defend actions. He will be equipped to give proper attention to business that may be com- mitted to him.

The program of study (which is designed to occupy the student three full years) will comprise the follow- ing subjects:

FIRST YEAR'S WORK. 1. Constitutional Law. — The books used are Blackstone's Commentaries, Creasy on The English Constitution, Mordecai's Law Lectures, Lex Scripta, McClain's Cases on Constitutional Law, and the texts of the constitutions of the United States and of North Carolina. The student is thus given a fair under- standing of the common law, the great charters, and statutes of England which lie at the foundation of the English and American constitutions, and a practical knowledge of the con-

136 Trinity College.

stitution of the United States and of the states, especially of North Carolina. 4 hours a week.

2. Domestic Relations. — The books used are Blackstone (1), Smith's Cases on the Law of Persons, supplemented by printed notes giving in condensed form the law of North Carolina on the different subjects treated. These notes bring the law down to date and cite the North Carolina statutes and decisions, thus enabling the student to have a comprehensive view of the common law, of the general rules of the American courts, and of the law as it stands in North Carolina to-day. Mordecai's Law Lectures treats extensively the subjects of master and servant and the allied subject of principal and agent and, in addition, gives a very full treatment, from a North Carolina standpoint, of the subjects of marriage, husband and wife, married women's rights and liabilities, especially the subject of their contracts; parent and child, guardian and ward, and infancy. Lex Scripta is also used, in which is a condensed summary of the leading English statutes, ancient and modern, bearing on marriage, husband and wife, parent and child, guardians and infancy, with the corresponding constitutional or statutory provisions of North Carolina. There can arise very few questions in domestic relations which are not covered by this course, both from a fundamental and a practical stand- point. 1 hour a week.

3. Real Property. — The first year's work on this subject is confined to Blackstone (2), by which the student is grounded in the history and rudiments of this most important branch of the law. In connection with Blackstone, Lex Scripta is used that the student may become familiar with the principal Eng- lish statutes, ancient and modern, governing property in land, and the status of such statutes in North Carolina at this day.

4. Contracts. — The text-book used is Mcintosh's Cases on Contracts. The course gives a general view of the law of con- tracts by the study of cases; by reference to leading text- books and authorities the student is thus enabled to investi- gate intelligently every phase of the subject by the use of the large law-library of the College. 2 hours a week.

Trinity College. 137

5. Evidence. — For this subject Greenleaf on Evidence is used, supplemented by assigned cases. 1 hour a week.

6. Equity.— The student is taken through Adam's Equity as an introduction to this subject, which is more extensively gone into in the second year. 1 hour a week.

7. Torts. — For this subject Simpson's Cases on Torts is used, supplemented by Pollock on Torts in E well's Essentials. In addition to this, the student gets a very full knowledge of that branch of the law of torts, especially the law of North Carolina, peculiarly applicable to employer and employee, corporations, and the domestic relations in the course on domestic relations. 2 hours a week.

8. Criminal Law — The student is first taken through Black- stone (4), then through Mikell's Cases on Criminal Law, and lastly through the chapters on crimes and criminal proceedings in the Revisal of North Carolina (1905). 2 hours a week.

SECOND YEAR'S WORK.

1. Real Property. — The whole subject is gone over in a most practical way by a study of Finch's Cases on the Law of Prop- erty in Land, supplemented by Mordecai's printed notes giving a summary of the North Carolina law on all important points with references to the principal cases and important statutes. The subject is concluded in Mordecai's Law Lectures, wherein the North Carolina law of real property is fully given. Full practical instruction is given in conveyancing, drawing deeds of various kinds, mortgages, deeds of trusts, leases, etc., and in conducting special proceedings for allotment of dower, for par- tition, for making real estate assets, etc., etc. 2 hours a week.

2. Pleading. — The student is first taken through Blackstone (3) for a foundation, and then through Ames's Cases on Common Law Pleading, the chapters in Adams's Equity particularly devoted to equity pleading and practice, the equity rules of the United States courts, and lastly through Clark's Code, sup- plemented with oral lectures. In the course on real property special attention is given to practice in conducting special pro- ceedings. The student who does faithful work in this course

will be able intelligently and practically to conduct litigation in which he may be employed. 2hours a week.

3. Wills and Administrations. — These subjects are taught from chapters 23 and 32 of Blackstone (2), Lex Scripta, Mor- decai's Law Lectures, and the Revisal of North Carolina (1905). The whole subject is fully treated, and the law brought down to date. One who carefully reads the course is fully equipped for the practice in drawing, proving, and contesting wills, and for advising those entrusted with winding up the estates of decedents. 1 hour a week {second half-year).

4. Negotiable Instruments. — This important subject is taught from Eaton & Gilbert's Commercial Paper, the text of the Negotiable Instrument Law, and oral lectures. Full practical instruction is given. 1 hour a week.

5. Equity. — For the second year-course Bispham's Equity is used, supplemented by Ames's Cases in Equity Jurisdiction, ref- erences to cases in the state reports, and oral lectures giving the history and the development of the system of equity, and the application of equitable principles in modern practice. Practical instruction is given in the ordinary forms of equit- able remedies, as in foreclosure of mortgages, etc., and the student is required to prepare the different papers necessary in such proceedings. The organization of the federal courts and the practice in equity in the circuit courts are fully explained in connection with the equity rules. 2 hours a week.

6. Personal Property . — Blackstone's Commentaries, Morde- cai's Lectures, and Tiffany on Law of Sales are used, and very full and practical instruction is given on all questions concern- ing chattels usually presented to the practicing lawyer. 2 hours a week.

7. Corporations. — Clark on Corporations, Mordecai's Law Lectures, Lex Scripta, and the Revisal of 1905 are used, and a full and practical course is given, which, taken in connection with the course on constitutional law, contracts, and convey- ancing, will equip the lawyer for giving proper care to any ordinary matter of corporation law. 1 hour a week.

8. The Statute Law of North Carolina. — The Revisal of 1905 is carefully gone over. The history, bearing, and con-
