Excerpt from Inauguration of Hon. John H. Lathrop, LL. D: Chancellor of the University of Wisconsin, at the Capitol, Madison, January 16, 1850
At a Special Meeting of the Regents of the University of Wisconsin, holden at Madison on the 21st of November, it was
Resolved, That the Inauguration of the Chancellor elect take place on the 16th day of January next, at the Capitol.
Whereupon Messrs. Mills, Dean and Root, were appointed a Committee of Arrangements.
On the 16th of January, 1850, both Houses of the Legislature having adjourned over in honor of the occasion; the Supreme Court, the State Medical Society, and the Rail Road Convention, having each intermitted its session, there was no rival attraction to divert the attention of citizens and strangers from the great event of the day.
Punctually at 10 o"clock, A. M., Gen, William R. Smith, Marshal of the Day, formed the Procession in the following order:
1. Madison Brass Band.
2. Students of the University.
3. Citizens and Strangers.
4. Governor and Chancellor.
5. President and Chaplain.
6. Regents of the University.
7. Judges of the Supreme Court.
8. Lieut. Governor and Senate.
9. Speaker and Members of the Assembly.
10. Committee of Arrangements.
Arrived at the entrance to the Capitol, the first three divisions opened to the right and left, while the others passed in.
