comment. Mr.. Carll was born blind, snd has always
been When quite young, he entered the instItu-

graduated aftcr studying there seven years. He
then determined TO take collegiate course. and
entered Fairchids Institution, Pushing, L. L. and
was afterward admitted to Columbia College.
Mr.. Carli has labored under many difhcuities IN
the pursuit Of his studies, not the least OF which
was being guided TO and from college. He was COM
PEELED 70 hire a bov to do this, and to poor man
the errense was Of small moment. One entire
year he was unable to afford this. and consequently
he was compelled to intermit that period In college,
which his friends claim lost to him the first honor at
the recent commencement
An original method was adopted by Mr.. CARL 10
gaining a knowledge Of bis studies As the text
books used In College are not prepared for the
