The death of Dr. A. L. Purinton

friends in the University. He grad
uated here in the class Of 1875 with
Congressman Dolliver, DR.. S. S.
Adams of Washington, Rev. DR.. Robert
II. Dolliver, and Hon. j. j, Peterson

for several years nperintendent Of the
Parkersburg city schools and after
wards was professor Of Chemistry in
the University of Nashville. He was
brilliant, scholarly and useful man,
and son in whose career the Univer
sity takes pride.
Bishop Peterkin who established the
Episcopal at the West Virginia Uni
versity few years ago announces that
a new plan has been decided upon for
the management of the Hall. Here
tofore the whole management OF the
hall has been in the hands Of the
warden who was also Rector of the
Episcopal church at Morgantown.
Beginning with this fall, there will be
both warden and steward.
The new warden will be Rev. G.
Gilbert Hannah OF Salem, New Jer-
sey. who will be likewise the new Rec
tor of the Episcopal church. The
steward will be Captain William c.
Marshall. of Virginia. who for 20 years
or more has been in charge of boys
boarding school. Both the warden
and the steward were selected by Bish-
CD Peterkin because of their eminent
fitness Tor tneSe p0SltlonS, ana IndL
the hall will open this fall under the
most favorable auspices there is no
doubt.
Bishop Peterkin intends that the
young men who live at the hall shall
have not only the benefit of good sur
roundings, good influence, good libra
ry, but that they shall likewise
be well fed, Captain Marshall hav-
ing a great reputation as success
full caterer to the appetites of boys.
The hall viii accommodate 40 or so
young men, and it ought to be filled
on the day of the opening of the fall
quarter. No distinction is made as
to church membership.
