183810608New York: John S. Taylor Publisher and Bookseller 1838. 50 xxviii blank 1 errata. Scattered light foxing Disbound. Good. The troubles began as soon as the University started up with the appointment of Dr. Mathews a "rash and ambitious" man as Chancellor in 1831. He alienated the faculty almost immediately and became a "fruitful source of embarrassments and convulsions." Fiscally unsound he "lost" the financial records; academically suspect he is "more intent upon gorgeous embellishments vain parade and mere effect than upon building up solidly and wisely an institution of learning." This regrettably is the view of "the whole Faculty of Science and Letters." The last straw-- or as this pamphlet refers to it "explosion"-- occurred when Mathews ejected seven teachers "from the duties of their Professorships." All his deficiencies are examined here with great care. FIRST EDITION. Sabin 14827. AI 51966 5. John S. Taylor, Publisher and Bookseller unknown books
