The work progressed so well tnat early In the spring of 11S4 the painting. which was life-size and full length. was finished and was placed by the trustees in the old gilt frame that had held George II. It was hung in the apartment where the audience had ta- ken place and which at that time was the college hall or chapel and now the handsomely appointed Faculty Room of Princeton University.
 For q century and a quarter the DOT trait has hung in this room and has been Prineeton's most treasured work of art. Only four times during these 1z5 years has 1t left Nassau Hall.

 The Marquis was as deeply moved on seeing so unexpectedly the portrait of his former friend and chief as he was to receive the original diploma signed by President Witherspoon In i79o con ferring on him the degree of IL. D.. from Princeton.
