Excerpt from Biographical Sketches of the Graduates of Yale College, Vol. 4: With Annals of the College History, July, 1778 June, 1792
Circumstances have enabled the author to prepare the present volume more rapidly than any of its predecessors, though this may be partly due to a smaller amount of research as more modern times are reached. The author is as conscious of the imperfections of his work as any critic can be; but believes it wiser to put in type his material as it is, rather than delay for possible improvement.
He is again indebted to his friend, Mr. John M. Gaines (Yale 1896), a Fellow of the Actuarial Society of America, for valuable vital statistics which appear in the Appendix.
If another volume of this series should be undertaken, it would probably include the classes from 1792 to 1805.
