Society of that day boasted few better-dressed men than Zephyr Wetherley. His judgment in a case of cravat was unerring. He had been in Europe, and was quoted when waistcoats were in debate. He had been very attentive to Mr. Alfred Dinks and Mr. Bowdoin Beacon, the two Boston youths who had been charming society during the season that was now over. He was even a little jealous of Mr. Dinks.
Bowdoin, kicking over a pile of newspapers on the floor. "Why does he have New Orleans newspapers?" The two men looked, and found one paper folded more carefully, on the table; in this they read the item telling of St. Clair's death. They looked at one another. "That is it, then," said Harley. "I wonder if he left her poor?" "So she is not in Havana, after all," said Mr. Bowdoin.
"Whose hay is in first, and whose orchard will yield the most cider," said Euphemia. "Yes; and how all their children are, and how many eggs go in a pudding." "I don't believe they make puddings with eggs very often," said the other sister again. "Their puddings are more like hasty puddings, I fancy." "Some of 'em make pretty good things," said old Mr. Bowdoin. "Things you can't beat, Phemie.
McMurtagh looked dubious; and the little maid, divining that the discussion of her was unfavorable, fell to tears, and then ran up and dried them on McMurtagh's business waistcoat. "You take the gold," said he dryly; "I'll carry the child myself." "Where?" inquired young Bowdoin, astonished. "Home," said McMurtagh sharply.
Cornell urged Ithaca as the site of the proposed institution, he never showed any wish to give his own name to it. The suggestion to that effect was mine. He at first doubted the policy of it; but, on my insisting that it was in accordance with time-honored American usage, as shown by the names of Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Amherst, Bowdoin, Brown, Williams, and the like, he yielded.
But it would be so pleasant if he could drive out his cousin Hope, as so many of the other young men do. People get so well acquainted in that way. Have you observed that Bowdoin Beacon is a great deal with her? How glad Mrs. Beacon would be!" Mrs. Dinks took off her cap, and was unpinning her collar, without in the least pressing her request. Not at all. His word was enough.
Jonathan, being desirous of a liberal education, commenced his studies at Atkinson Academy, at about the age of seventeen, and became a member of the freshman class of Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Me., in 1821.
He was a tutor in Yale and was third president of Hamilton College. William Theodore Dwight, D.D., b. 1795, g. Yale 1813, tutor at Yale, practiced law in Philadelphia; became a clergyman; pastor in Portland; overseer of Bowdoin College. He was offered three professorships, which he declined. He was one of the religious leaders of America for many years. Hon. Theodore Dwight, b. 1764, lawyer.
Indignant at what he considered an injustice to his character and scholarship, he left Bowdoin forever: nor did he perhaps lose much by this. The philosophical studies of the senior year could be mastered as easily by a mind like Wasson's without an instructor as with one. He never studied for rank and cared little or nothing for college honors or degrees.
