of Hasselquist marked an epoch in the
history of our Lutheran church in
America. The gifts and rare ability
with which God had endowed this
servant proved to be of exceptional
value to the multiplying congregations.
In consequence of the continual and
every widening stream OF immigration
the field of labor mad steadily widened.
The Swedes kept settling in new
places, and Hasselquist was kept busy
visiting them, preaching to them and
organizing new congregations.
Early in 1858 he organized the I'm
manuel church in Chicago, which was
destined to become the mother church
of no less than 40 additional Swedish
Lutheran churches in that city Rev.
Erland Carlson of the diocese of
Wexie, Sweden. was called to become
pastor of this little congregation
Carlson arrived in the fall of 1853
and continued to labor in Chicago with
undated vigor for % years How he
shared the trials Of the immigrants
during the first years may be indicated
by the following quotation from a let

Sweden and the latter two also in
institutions in this country. The first
was stationed at Chisago Lake, Mimi,
the second at Rockford, H., the third
at Lafayette, Ind. New calls were

BEGINS WITH ONE TEACHER
Eight Orphanages, Three Hospitals,
Three Deaconess Homes and Five
Home for Aged.

Not only has the Augustana synod
exerted powerful religious influence
over the Swedish people in America,
but its work has branched out into
educational and philanthropic fields as
well. No less than nine educational
institutions are under the jurisdiction
of the synod, while Is charitable in
situations are supported. The latter
include eight orphanages, three hos
pitfalls, two deaconess homes and five
homes for the aged
Augustana College and Theological
seminary, which celebrates its jubilee
anniversary simultaneously with the
synod, is the oldest Institution of them
all, having been organized at the same
time that the synod was begun. It's
first president and only instructor was
Professor L. P. Esbjorn, through whose
labors Augustana synod was brought
into existence. For the first three
years the college was located in the
little parochial school house of the
Emmanuel church, Chicago.
Twenty-One Students First Year.
Twenty-one students were in attend
ance the first year. In 1868 the insti-
tuition was moved to Paxton, ILL.,, and
later. in 1875, moved to Rock Island.
During the 90 years of its activity the
college has had only four presidents.
Professor L. P. Esbjorn served at It's
head from 1860 to 1868; DR.. T. n.

ought to have a charitable institution
in Chicago. Backed by the ministers
of Chicago, the various ladies' aid so
cieties of the Chicago churches took
I'D the matter in earnest and soon had
a sufficient fund TO open a hospital
large enough to accommodate 10
patients. The hospital was soon in
adequate to meet the demands, and III
1893 the cornerstone of a new build
ing. six stories in height, was laid,
having a capacity of 125 beds. In 1904
the building was enlarged to accom-
modate 200 patients, and a training
school for nurses was commenced.
DR.. M. Wahlstrom has been at the head
of the institution since 1904. Since
it's organization, 24,e9S patients have
been treated up to Jan. 1. 1903. Al
though 2,4S3 patients were treated
during 1908, there were only142 deaths,
or less than per cent.
The other hospitals of the synod are
Bethesda hospital of st. Paul, Mimi,
controlled by the Minnesota confer
ence, and the Emmanuel hospital OF
Omaha, Neb., controlled by the Ne
braska conference. Both these insti-
tutions have deaconess training
schools in connection with the hos
pitfalls, in which deaconesses of the
synod are given thorough education
in professional nursing.
