SAID he had been urged TO speak of the legal
phase of the question. Years ago the Union
Seminary was Of an association. In 1870 it
had its officers and of its own will came under
the power of the assembly, so as far as the
dlsapproyal Of the professors was concerned,
the assembly had no right to approve
It had only the right 10 disapprove.
The power to disopproye. if not
exercised at the meeting following the
election was abrOgated, This made the duty
and right of the assembly under the law
very clear. There was no power to delay the
action. therefore the admitment of Or. Logan
could be Of no avail. IL had no force and
might prove vicious as tending to dulude the
commissioners with the idea that the matter
could be deferred. go
There were only three things that could be
done-either disapprove. do as the committee
bad done, or they could refuse TO dlsapproye
of DIR. Briggs and send the matter back TO the
directors because the proceedings were
irregular.
Just as Judge breckenridge finished his re-
marks, at $50, he turned partly toward the
