A window in memory of the men of the class of '65 who fell in the Civil War will be placed in Memorial Hall on the south side, next to the gallery. It is the gift of the class of '65, and will be presented to the College on Commencement Day.
The window has been designed by Mrs. Whitman who was also the designer of the large window in the transept of Memorial. The subject is a classical one, the young Cornelius Scipio being the ideal instance in both panels. In the first panel he is represented as going to battle, an angel sending him forth; and in the second, returning, kneeling before the angel, with his shield and the two spears of victory. In the base of the first panel is written the word "Honor" and in the second, "Pax." Above the two panels in the small triangular lancet is the class year, LXV.
