21Author:  Cooper, James FenimoreRequires cookie*
 Title:  Preface to the Water Witch [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1996 
 Description: It was a bold attempt to lay the scene of a work like this, on the coast of America. We have had our Buccaneer on the water, and our witches on the land, but we believe this is the first time occasion on which the rule has been reversed. After an experience that has now lasted more than twenty years, the result has shown that the public prefers the original order of things. In other words, the book has proved a comparative failure.

 Title:  Letter from William R. Mead to Dr. Barringer, Nov. 5, 1895; [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1995 
 Description: Your letter of the 29th was received at the office while I was on the ocean returning from Europe, which will account for my not answering it immediately. I presume matters have taken such shape in the meantime that I can only say how much we all regret the calamity which has befallen the University in the loss of a building that was one of the architectural monuments of the country—and our hope that its reconstruction has fallen into reverent hands- It would indeed be a misfortune if some one tries to be original and improve on what has gone before—ex cept perhaps as to interior arrangement— If no final arrangements have been made we can only say we should consider it an honor to be associated with the work and apart from our actual expense should not consider the money side of the matter. These expenses from our past experience would amount to about 3 per cent on the expenditure.

 Title:  Printed Letter, 1794 [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1995 
 Description: THE resolutions proposed by Mr. Madison, upon the principle of securing the advantages to the navigation and commerce of the United States, which of right belong to her, and which have been hitherto usurped by Britain, have been postponed to the first Monday in March, by which time, the public will may be tolerably ascer- tained, and foreign occurrences better known: A state like ours, whose prosperity depends upon the regular exportation of bulky commodities, to distant countries, must be deeply interested to secure the national means of doing it, independent of foreign revolutions and wars.

 Title:  Letter from James Pleasants to Frank Smith, Oct. 28, 1895 [a machine-readable transcription]  
 Published:  1995 
 Description: Yesterday was truly a day of days; of sympathi- zing sorrow & overwhelming sadness with us all. Besides the terrific blow that fell on dear Robert Stiles in the death of his daughter Lelia, who died in the morning at 8 o'clock, there next came upon us the crushing news that the dear old University was in flames and doubtless doomed to destruction! I need not attempt to describe our misery and anxiety. All day long was spent in eagerness, & melancholy, about the University's fate. I hardly have ever known more excite- ment in our Community, and as the day wore on & the news became sadder & sadder, we felt as if the loss of the beloved old Rotunda and Public Hall, with its priceless contents, would be felt as the most irreparable of disasters, and saddest of blows. I thought of you very often & those invaluable treasures; and especially of your lecture- room & its apparatus.
