JACOBs. —— ,— • * * ~ * s, * ºn -f R 3 * & º, 4 - || 3 - 7 & These pages are primarily designed as an acknowledg- ment of the writer's obligation to friends who have assisted his researches. The work professes to be nothing more than a statistical compendium of the principal Greek-letter fraternities; but it might have been greatly enlarged with sketches of numerous extinct or unimportant societies, had the writer not lacked both the time and patience necessary to digest for that purpose the mass of catalogues and letters before him. His choice, did his engagements permit him to consider the project now, would rather lie in the direc- tion of a volume to contain extended histories of the few societies that have become celebrated in collegiate annals. The following catalogues have been consulted : Kappa Alpha, editions of 1835, 1838, 1840, 1842, 1845, 1850, 1853, 1859, 1874.

Its first meeting was held in the Apollo Hall of the old Raleigh tavern, then already memorable for Patrick Henry's revo- lutionary utterances; and from the original minutes of proceedings (which are still preserved, covering fifty folio pages, and extending to January 6, 1781, when college exercises were stopped by the war), we learn that John Heath was the first president, while Thomas Smith acted as “clerk ". Forty-nine members in all were enrolled at William and Mary, and far down the list appears the name of Elisha Parmelie, to whom, in the quaint phraseology of . the records, a “charter party" was granted December 5, 1779, for establishing a “Phi Society” at Cambridge, in Massachusetts Bay, to be called “ Epsilon ”, and another - & 4 four days later, for a “meeting” in the college of New Haven, to be called “Zeta ". The society flourished many years at Yale and Harvard, and thence spread into other colleges. But long before the year 1825, when the earliest of the modern societies was founded, Phi Beta Kappa had commenced to decline; its secrecy was aban- doned, and soon it became what it now is, a mere honor- ary society, to which the best scholars of each senior class —generally the first third—are admitted as a matter of course. Of the eighteen branches nominally existing, the 6 | youngest are the Delta and the Epsilon of New Yorkf established in 1868 and 1870, at Columbia and Hamiltone In 1849, a charter was refused the University of Michigan P because of the absence of a marking system. The badge was originally a medal, worn suspended a blue or pink ribbon; but afterwards it took the form a watch-key, bearing b BK across the centre, while fro beneath the letters a hand points transversely upwa to a group of stars. The motto is bºoooſhta Blow Kt Bepunt)c, “Philosophy, Guide of Life”, and the socie was also called “S. P.”, Societas Philosophiae. - The modern societies bear little resemblance to Ph. Beta Kappa, save in the fact that their names are derive from the initial letters of Greek mottoes. Undoubtedl they arose from the desire for a closer social communion tha was afforded by the old literary societies. Kappa Alph Sigma Phi and Delta Phi were successively founded by seniors of '26, '27 and '28; and for some years the fraterni ties were almost exclusively upper-class societies. Afte the foundation of Psi Upsilon in 1833, by members of '3 and '37, at a time when the other societies had only twº or three representatives in those classes, sophomores an freshmen were more frequently elected, and now they ar considered eligible in nearly all the colleges. At Yale Psi U. and D. K. E. do not initiate until the end of sophomore year; senior year is engrossed by two power ful societies, the “Skull and Bones” and the “Scroll an Key’’, while the freshmen have Greek societies of thei own, as had the sophomores, previous to 1875. At Dart mouth, freshmen are not initiated until the last term of the year, except into the two societies of their own class. The first modern society to institute a chapter was Sigma. Phi, which gained a foothold at Hamilton in 1831, thus indirectly leading to the foundation of Alpha Delta Phi a ( ; | 7 few months later. About this time Kappa Alpha failed in entering Hamilton, but commenced a long career of pros- perity at Williams, the first members being unsuccessful peti- tioners for a ‘p B K charter. Soon after, Sigma Phi appeared in Williams as the successor of the Phi Alpha, a young local society, whose badge was a ring. Societies were soon organized in Miami University, the N. Y. U., Colum- bia, Amherst, Brown, Harvard and Yale. The fraterni- ties grew rapidly, despite the opposition of burlesque organizations, of anti-secret societies, and of college au- thorities. As early as 1849, many college presidents wrote that the movement was too strong to be crushed, and, except at Princeton, repressive measures have been unsuc- ºcessful. The Greek societies of Harvard fell from the |caprice of their own members in the class of '58. 3. Of the older societies having branches in two or more colleges, there are ten (those first mentioned in this work) "whose chapters are wholly or largely confined to New York |and New England colleges. All of them, save Delta Psi, were co-existent at Union from 1859 to 1862, but now not more than six are rivals in any college. | Sigma Phi's first catalogue appeared in 1834; Kappa d Alpha's, containing 167 names, in 1835; that of Alpha ‘Delta Phi, in 1836, and of Psi Upsilon, showing 243 2. names, in 1842. In 1830, the eastern societies had 147 members; in 1840, 1,230, and now their living members number 25,000, among whom are the presidents and lead- *ing professors of most of the principal colleges. After a "conflict of half a century, the success of the Greek-letter 1societies would seem to be complete. NoTE.-The accompanying tables give the chapter dates of establishment (an asterisk precedes the name of a dead chapter, and the date of decease follows), and the total membership of each chapter. The aggregate membership of each society as given excludes duplicate names. The lists of prominent mem- ers include only those who were initiated during college life. 8 nine stars are on the left.

Claims to have been founded at Princeton in 1824, and to have been revived at the same institution in 1854, after slumbering twenty-five years, by a nephew of the original founder. It was removed in 1856 to Franklin and Mar. shall College. An entirely distinct society called Chi Phi arose at the University of North Carolina in 1858, and established several Southern chapters; and in 1860 a third Chi Phi society was founded at Hobart, which spread into Kenyon and Rutgers. The two Northern societies united in 1866, and were joined by the Southern Chi Phi in 1873. The badge is a X laid upon a P, and set with rubies and sapphires, a pearl or diamond being in the centre; on each side of the P is a star, its upper cross-piece bears clasped hands, and the lower crossed swords.
