(Sole Executor); To Be Sold at Auction, Monday and Tuesday Evenings, May 2d and 3d, 1904 He entered Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., in 1850, graduated Bachelor of Arts in 1854, and received his Master's degree in 1858. His Alma Mater conferred the Doctorate in Divinity in 1866, and Princeton University bestowed the same honor in 1896, Indiana Asbury University (de Pauw) and Dickinson College each gave him the Doctorate of Laws in 1877. His tastes for history and linguistics became more pronounced underthe fostering care of able and discriminating teachers during his college course, and his conviction that he should prepare himself for the Christian ministry became a settled one, though involv ing an abandonment of the law, to which his friends and his own thought had for some time pointed him. After graduation he taught, first in a common school for a few months at Greensboro, Maryland, and then for nearly two years in the Hedding Literary Institute, which ran a brief career of about four years in Ashland, N. Y., among the Catskills. His department was Latin and Greek, with some occasional work in English and a few lectures. One of the lady teachers of this school was Miss Kate E. La Monte, in charge of the ornamental branches. In 1859 she became Mrs. Hurst. John Burroughs was one of his pupils in Ashland. To equip himself both in body and mind more thoroughly for his life work, he spent a part of two years, 1856 and 185 7, in Europe, dividing his time between attendance upon lectures at the Universities of Halle and Heidelberg, and making several journeys, some of them on foot, in Switzerland and other parts of the Continent. He returned to America in the autumn of 185 7, and began preaching in January, 1858, as a supply under the presiding elder on the Carlisle circuit, then a part of the Baltimore Conference, with his headquarters at Mechanicsburg, Pa. In the following spring he joined the Newark Conference at its first session, and was assigned to Irvington, N. J., where he labored for one year. He was ordained deacon by Bishop Scott in 1860, and elder by Bishop Morris in 1862. His pastorates after the first were at Passaic; Elizabethport; Water Street, Eliza beth; and Trinity, on Staten Island; each for two years, though the last named was cut short by his acceptance in the autumn of 1866 of the professorship of theology in the school for Ger man preachers at Bremen, Germany, later removed to Frankfort ou-the-main under the name of the Martin Mission Institute.
