Excerpt from An Historical Address Delivered Before the Massachusetts Agricultural College: On the Occasion of Graduating Its First Class, July 19, 1871
Mr. President and Friends of Agriculture.
The occasion which has called us together is of no ordinary importance. We meet to commemorate, by the services of this day, the graduation of the first class of students from the first Agricultural College of our own State or of our own New England, an occasion which we believe will be made memorable as the beginning of a new era in the cause of scientific as well as practical agriculture in our good old Commonwealth.
By a merciful Providence I stand before you to-day as the senior member of the Board of Trustees, and I propose, in the discharge of the duty assigned me, to record for the benefit of those who may come after us, in as brief a manner as possible, the history and progress of efforts for the advancement of agricultural science in our land, and especially of those which have culminated in the establishment of the Massachusetts Agricultural College.
