Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Brief Description of Colby College and Its Equipment
The College, the second Oldest in the State, originated with the Baptists Of the State, and acknowledges with deep gratitude the support and interest of this denomination in its welfare, for its benefactors have been numerous, and to none more than Gardner Colby and Abner Coburn does it owe its material welfare. Its intellectual and material growth have been greatly developed by the able corps of presidents and professors who have served the Institution from its earliest years, and many of whom were educators of national renown.
