Prof. Price, who was graduated at Yale, and who afterwards spent two years in France and Germany, and then served as tutor in Yale, was recommended by the Faculty and elected by the Board of Trustees to take charge of French and German. We welcome him to Trinity.
The medals and prizes were won as follows: Braxton Craven Medal, by W. I. Cranford; the Wiley Gray, by George N. Raper; Pinnix Medal, by W. G. Lee; Junior Prize (twenty-five dollars in books) by W. J. Helms; Senior Prize in Politico-Socio Science, by George N. Raper.
We are glad to welcome back to Trinity, Prof. H. H. Williams who has been elected to the Chair of Theology and Hebrew. The liberality of a number of individuals, many of them ministers of the North Carolina Conference, has enabled the Board to add at a late hour this much needed Chair. It was possible to establish the other Chair (German and French) by instituting strict economy, so that the expenses are not increased beyond those of last year.
