Excerpt from The Life and Writings of George Washington Doane, Vol. 4 of 4
To-day, our newly-founded College takes the water-level. For four years, it has been, slowly, rising, toward the surface. You can see it, now, and feel it, and stand on it; and be certain, that it has foundations. If they be not laid upon the Rock of Ages; if Jesus Christ be not its chief corner-stone; if it be not a bulwark of the Church; if it be not a stronghold, for the rights, and liberties of men; then, no matter what it may have cost; no matter whose blood may have been mingled with the mortar: may it perish, and the very place of it be lost!
L This is a religious College. It owes its being to the clear, and strong, conviction, that Education is a divine thing. It is from God. It is of God. It is for God.
