LOMBARD UNIVERSITY
Our New D. DIS. made no mistake in
the selection of candidates for its hon
ary degree of Doctor Of Divinity. Rev.
Thomas S. Guthrie, of Indiana, and
Rev. D. B. Clayton. of South Carolina.
were the recipients of this honor at the
recent commencement. DIR. Guthrie for
over forty years has been a successful
pastor and always faithful in denomina-
tional service. He is we'll known in
Ohio and Indiana as one of our most
useful clergyman and preacher of
popular gifts. He will honor the de.
gree with which he has now been hon
ored. DIR. Clayton is one of the pioneers
of Universalism in the South. He has
travelled extensively for half century
or more, as a missionary of Glad It'd
ings, and made Universalism known and
respected throughout many of the
Southern States. He is veteran of the
veterans. 1t is matter for definite
commentator that in this era of our
new missionary spirit and enterprise.
our Western university recognizes, in
this eminent manner, one of the old
campaigners who has rendered such
valuable service to our church.

MY COMMENCEMENT VISIT.

HAVING just finished reading in the
Gdlesburg Register, an account of
the recent commencement at Lom-
bard, | am impelled to give an ac-
count of nv first visit to Lombard
last week Oh that occasion. 1t was
such an agreeable visit that it is
worthy of some record in The UNI
vERsALIsT, and this opinion is en-
dorsed by the Editor, who has encour-
aged me to write this letter to sup
plement in my own way the regular
report of the proceedings which APP
pears in this paper.
Strangely enough | never before
visited the city of Galesburg, although
for the last thirteen years, there had
come regularly every year invitations
from our friends in that city. But
until this year, the weather has al
ways been SO hot, and l have become
so accustomed to having my asth
matte lungs filled with the breezes of
the "windy city, that | never had the
courage to leave Chicago at COM
mencement time. Hence | had never
seen Galesburg.
Many years ago, when my father,
DR.. Williamson, was approached on
the subject of the presidency of
Lombard University, but feared to
accept on account of the climate, l
was anxious to go there. Friends
said You would not like it; it is
stuck in the mud in the middle of a
prairie" Whatever Galesburg may
have been in early years, it is not
"stuck in the mud" now, but has paved
streets, electric lights, electric cars
and every convenience for getting
around without the rubber boots
which / heard Prof. Parker remsrk,
in his after dinner speech at the ban
quet, were often needed by the stu
dents in the days that were. Yes,
Galesburg is now a beautiful city,
and the trees, oh the trees that are
everywhere, are perpetual delight
to the eye and no fairer campus can
be found than the one surrounding
Lombard University.
We arrived at Galesburg on Tues
day evening (the 1--WE" meaning my
friend Mrs. Ellis and my pastor, DIR.
Canfeld) and at the station were met
by the smiling face and cordial greet
ing of Prof. Standish, ex president of
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1897-06-12
SECOND DAY-JUNE 3.

The exercises of the day began
with a conference meeting, led by
Mr.. Eben Mumford, who read as a
scripture lesson, Matthew vii. and Of
fered fervent prayer. Topic: Con
centration of Effort" There were a
large number of speakers. The Con
vention was called to order and after
prayer by Rev. Sara l.. Stoner, OF
Milford, the secretary called the roll
A. [. Spanton was appointed Session
al Clerk. DR.. Demarest, Secretary
of the General Convention, was in
vited to a seat in the Convention
The same courtesy was extended to
other visiting ministers, including DIR.
Cantwell, of The UNIvERsALIsT.
A call was made for report of SEES
sional committees and Committee on
Unfinished Business. A letter was
read from the Secretary of the Gen
eral Convention referring to the i'm
portance of the next meeting of the
General Convention in Chicago and
urging the appointment of wise and
judicious delegates. The letter recited
the various important matters to
come before the convention for con-
sideration. Among the items speci-
fed was the proposed substitute for
the Winchester Profession of Faith.
A letter from the Secretary of the
AntiSaloon League, asking the Con
vention to send delegates to the next
meeting, was referred to the Board of
Trustees. The annual report of the
Secretary of the Convention was
called for and read.
The report of DR.. Henley gave in
detail the executive work of the year.
1t embodied several recommendations
and it was at once moved that the
president appoint a committee of
three to which the various reports of
the Convention, including, that of the
secretary, shall be referred. The
committee named as follows: Eben
Mumford, Moses Danforth and d. l..
Badger.
The report of the Treasurer of the
Convention, Mr.. W. D. Sibley, was
presented by that officer and read.
The report of the Auditing Commit
tee followed that of the Treasurer.
W. B. Waggoner and j. d. Sleeper,
of Columbus, were this committee,
who reported that the accounts of
the treasurer had been examined and
found correct.
Report of the trustees was called
for and read by Secretary Henley.
