At a meeting in Boston the other day in the interests of Roanoke College, Virginia, President Eliot of Harvard spoke in its behalf, saying: "That he was sure all present felt deeply touched by the story of the devotion and self-denial of the noble men who are bravely struggling to build up Roanoke College, doing what is to them a sacred work. For some years past he had learned of this heroic and self-sacrificing endeavor and the more he knew of the work and its representatives the more he esteemed both, and such would be the case with all as they become acquainted with President Dreher and the college. Roanoke is now what Harvard was 100 years ago, in buildings and the number of professors, though Harvard then had some endowment."
