Not illustrated. 1876 edition. Excerpt: ... ORIGIN OF THE NAME. In 1031 the Earl of Warwick, one of the origiual patentees of New England, granted to Viscount Say and Seal, Lord Brook and others all that part of New England, extending from the Narraganset river, forty leagues along the coast and thence due west to the South Seas.' The northern boundary of this grant was vague, being determined by the previous vague patent of Massachusetts. It was finally determined to be forty-two degrees and two minutes north latitude. The southern boundary by the grant was the forty-first parallel. This territory was infringed upon by the Dutch settlements on the Hudson; and even after New Amsterdam fell into the hands of the English, the rights of Connecticut were not recognized, but an attempt was made even to confine her to the cast side of the Connecticut river. In the settlement of this controversy, she obtained substantially her present western boundary. The claims of Connecticut were jumped again by the grant to William Penn in 1081, of all her lands extending through five degrees of longitude west of the Delaware river. But she still retained the right and title to all lands west of Pennsylvania, between the fortyfirst parallel and the line of forty-two degrees two minutes. During the war of Independence, an attempt was made to adopt Articles of Confederation, which should constitute a definite form of government and bond of union between the Colonies. One great obstacle to the adoption of these Articles was the claim to these vast areas of western land macje by Massachusetts, Connecticut, New, York, Virginia and the Carolinas, in accordance with their original charters. The States which had no western claims, justly maintained that this territory must bo wrested from Great Britain by...

At a meeting of the Faculty of A delbert College of Western Reserve University, held June 9th, 1884, it was voted that the Trustees be informed that the Faculty are of the opinion that after the Autumn examinations of 1886, young women should not be admitted to co-education in this College. This vote was approved by all the members of the Faculty except the President, who was absent from the meeting and did not know that any such action was contemplated. This minute was transmitted to the Board of Trustees at their meeting, June i8th. The Board appointed a Committee to examine the question and directed that they report to the Board at a special meeting to be held Nov. 7th. This Committee consisted of Hon. W. I. Chamberlain, Mr. Joseph Perkins, Hon. S. E. Williamson, Mr. Samuel A ndrews, Mr. L. E. Holden, Mr. W. H. Doan and Rev. Carroll Cutler. The Committee sought information from a very large number of the Presidents and Professors of those Colleges and other higher schools of learning, who had had experience in the joint education of men and women, and from a considerable number of those who had had no experience, but who were thought best able to present the arguments against it. The Committee met first on Sept. I5th, to consider the subject and compare the testimony which they had received, and again on Nov. 6th, to determine on a report to be made to the Board. The majority of the Committee, consisting of Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Perkins, Mr. Doan and Mr. Cutler, agreed to a report concluding as follows: In view of such and such like facts and opinions, your Committee beg leave to recommend that the action urged by the Faculty, viz: To refuse, after the Autumn examinations of 1886, to admit young women to co-education in A delbert College, be not adopted by this Board of Trustees. Mr. Williamson and Mr. Andrews presented a minority report, urging that no wo (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

(Excerpt from Shall Women Now Be Excluded From Adelbert Co...)
Excerpt from Shall Women Now Be Excluded From Adelbert College of Western Reserve University: An Argument Presented to the Board of Trustees, Nov; 7th, 1884 The question for decision is not the original question, whether women shall be admitted to the privileges of this College. That question was decided long ago. They are admitted. The doors have been open to them for twelve years. It is not the abstract question, whether the education offered here is the best for women or is good for women. It is not the theoretical question, whether the education of women ought to be identical with that of men. Much might be said on both these questions, pro and con, but it would all be aside from the point now before us. These are ever lasting questions always before the debating clubs. It is equally de batable whether the education offered here is the best for men. Many people now maintain that the college course, as we have it here, is neither best, nor good for men. Probably every member of this Board would declare that in some respect or other. And in some degree or other, this course is not first best, perhaps that it is not second rate; and some members have openly declared that it isnot good enough to allow them to send their sons to the College. But the comparative goodness of the course of study and instruction for men or women is not the subject now to be debated and decided. This College (and all others) offers a certain course, or certain courses, of study to the public. We are like a merchant offering goods for sale. He offers what he has and what he thinks some people will wish to buy. He caters to the market in his own line to the best of his ability. Those who like his goods or think they cannot do better, can take them at the prices named. He cannot compel a purchaser. Just so with our courses of study. We do not compel man or woman to take them. We only offer them. They do as they please. If women do not like them or find them adapted to their needs, the College will not be crowded by numbers of women. The question before us is simply this: Shall the privileges of education in this College, such as they are, which have been offered to women for twelve years, henceforth be refused to them? Or, in other words: Shall women now be turned out from this College? The women are here, here because they wish to be; not because it was Hobson's choice, this or nothing. It is no more true on the part of the women and their parents, than it IS on the part of. The men and their parents, that they would have gone elsewhere if they could, or that it was only a sad necessity which brought them to a College where men were admitted. It is no more true of the men now in College or of those who have been here since 1873, than it was of those who were here from 1826 to 1873, that it was an unpleasant necessity which brought them to this College or kept them in it. From 1826 to 1873, the period before women were admitted, only 44 per cent of those who entered this College graduated. From 1873 to 1884, the period in which women have been admitted, 57 per cent of those who entered have graduated. These figures show how untrue it is to say that the presence of women drives away men to graduate elsewhere. It has had precisely the opposite effect.

Carroll Cutler was born on January 31, 1829 in Windham, New Hampshire, United States. He was the son of Calvin and Rhoda Bartlett (Little) Cutler, in a large family.
As his father had a large family to rear on the meager salary of a rural Presbyterian clergyman, Carroll was obliged to earn his education.
He worked on a farm and taught district school, attended Phillips Andover Academy, and graduated from Yale College in 1854.
A year of teaching at Bloomfield, New Jersey, provided him with sufficient money to carry him through the following year at Union Theological Seminary in New York; he continued his reading of divinity while a tutor at Yale 1856-58, and in January of 1858 was licensed to preach by the Congregational West Association of New Haven.
The next year he spent in travel and study abroad, especially in Germany, and in the spring of 1860 he was appointed professor of intellectual philosophy and rhetoric in Western Reserve College at Hudson, Ohio.
Western Reserve college was then a representative ‘‘freshwater” institution, nourished chiefly on hopes for the future, but its half-dozen scrimped professors included several men of uncommon ability.
Cutler soon proved to be one of them, making his mark as a teacher rather than as an administrator or a productive scholar.
For four months of 1862 he was a tall, stalwart first lieutenant of Company B of the 85th Ohio Volunteer Infantry, engaged in escorting prisoners to Vicksburg for exchange.
In 1871 he assumed the presidency of the college after assuring himself that his new duties need not interfere with his work in the classroom.
In 1876 he published A History of Western Reserve College during its First Half Century 1826-76.
Cutler’s learning, his good sense, his command of English style, and his moral fervor are pleasantly revealed in The Beginnings of Ethics (1889), which, appearing in the year before James’s Principles of Psychology, belongs to the era when philosophy, in American colleges, was still dominated by theology.
In 1882 Western Reserve College was raised to comparative affluence by endowments made by Amasa Stone and others, was removed from Hudson to Cleveland, and changed its name to Adelbert College of Western Reserve University.
Cutler resigned the presidency in 1886, retaining his professorship, but continued to occupy the office until 1888, when his successor was installed.
He soon found himself hopelessly at variance with the new president and in 1889 severed all connection with the college.
His last years were spent in the South as a teacher in two negro schools, Biddle University at Charlotte, North Carolina, and Talladega College at Talladega, Alabama.
He taught until within a week of his death.
