During twenty years the compiler, Bout well Dunlap, has published in The Caduceus biographies of and biographical notes on, it is estimated, at least 4,000 of the initiates of the Fraternity especially, those of the first part of its history. Among the latter are biographies of members not par- ticularly mentioned in the above syllabus of the period, 1869-1885, as connected with its strictly "historical" events, as well as those of the same period connected with such events. References in the foregoing citations to the biographies of either of these last two classes would obscure the con- tinuity and confuse the reader of the historical narrative. They are more properly to be used as material for a Fraternity catalogue or biographical collection. Besides, biographies become obsolete with new facts in careers. Therefore, except in the case of the Founders at Virginia, or where some biography contains a historical statement, they have been omitted in the references. It is believed that no other fraternity has in its possession so many photographs of its early historical members as those listed above. Some alumni, whose likenesses are missing, have pleaded, through modesty, that their publication by Kappa Sigma be omitted. In addition to these, the Fra- 27 SOURCES OF KAPPA SIGMA HISTORY ternity has printed photographs of a number of its collegians of this period who became distinguished, but are not cited. While interjection of biographies of these is not pertinent to a history, still, if a history of the Fraternity be published, an attractive addition to the volume would be the inter- spersion through the text for 1869-1885 of photographs of the following initiates of those years. They like a number of those with references in the foregoing have become distinguished men in either their states or the nation : George Tully Vaughan Caduceus, XI, 198*, XXXII, 12*; Lee Brock Caduceus, XXIII, 3*; Samuel Macon Smith Caduceus, XXIV, 249, op. 299; Samuel Cecil Graham Caduceus, XXVI, 319; John Dudley Pope Caduceus, XXVI, 319; Stephen Olin Richey Caduceus, XXVI, 320; Thomas Neal Ivey Caduceus, XXVI, 320; William Thomas Jenkins Caduceus, XXVI, 373, XXXV, op. 1*, XXXV, 9; John Bell Turner Caduceus, XXVI, 712*; Francis Irvin Osborne Caduceus, XXVI, 945 ; William Reynolds Allen Caduceus, XXVII, 92*; Joseph Luther Ke\\y Caduceus, XXIX, 390*; Francis Nelson Barksdale Caduceus, XXXI, 500*; Henry Davidson Fry Caduceus, XXXII, 12*; DeWitt Coffman Caduceus, XXXII, 14*, XXXIV, 374*; Robert Henry Watkins Caduceus, XXXIV, 630*. The ana of the Fraternity contains a large number of photographs of the buildings and campus scenes of the various colleges and universities where Kappa Sigma Chap- ters were established, 1869-85. These, if it be desired, might be used to illustrate a historical narrative of these years. 28 RETURN TO the circulation desk of any University of California Library or to the NORTHERN REGIONAL LIBRARY FACILITY Bldg. 400, Richmond Field Station University of California Richmond, CA 94804-4698 ALL BOOKS MAY BE RECALLED AFTER 7 DAYS 2-month loans may be renewed by calling (415)642-6233 1-year loans may be recharged by bringing books to NRLF Renewals and recharges may be made 4 days prior to due date DUE AS STAMPED BELOW APR ? 5 1997 U. & BERKELEY JUN 1 3 U, C.
