Title A name given to the resource A Short Statement About the History and Holdings of Emory at Oxford's Museum (Second Page) Description An account of the resource Transcription: to include pictures of interest and the more valuable of the books in "the Museum." A gallery of portraits of Emory's presidents from the Civil War to 1915 consequently lines the north wall, in order of tenure. Their names: Thomas, Luther Smith, Osborne Smith, Haygood, Hopkins, Candler, Dowman, and Dickey. The old books were originally from several sources, from the important Phi Gamma and Few Literary Society libraries, from the bookshelves of the presidents and members of the faculty, and from donors. Ponderous theological tomes, many printed before 1860, highlight the items on display, books by Jacob Arminius, John Wesley, Archibald Alexander, J. L. Dagg, Richard Watson, Hubbard Winslow, William Ellery Channing, Lyman Beecher, Robert Leighton, James M'Cosh, Thomas O. Summers (Southern Methodism's nineteenth century theologian), and Charles M. Sheldon, to name the most prominent. There are textbooks with fascinating titles; The Saloon Keeper's Daughter, Cotton Is King and Pro-slavery Arguments, Our Little Mexican Cousin, The Uplift Book of Child Culture. Finally, there are series of sturdy reference books: Jared Sparks' American Biography, Richardson's Messages and Papers of the Presidents (of the U.S.), Alden's Universal Literature, Nicholson's Encyclopaedia (1818), Cyclopaedia of Biblical, Theological, and Ecclesiastical Literature, Justin Winsor's Narrative and Critical History of America, the important Ninth Edition of the Encyclopaedia Brittanica, Rees' Cyclopaedia, and the New American Cyclopaedia (1858). Eta Sigma Psi invites all visitors to the Emory at Oxford campus to see the refurbished museum. The Librarian and the President of the society have keys and will always be glad to unlock the gallery. Eta Sigma Psi also invites students and visitors alike to add to the Museum of Emory at Oxford, so that in the future its holding will be of added value, in point of monetary worth and interest.
