Saint Andrew's Divinity School.
AT THE CONVENTION held in Christ Church, Binghamton, in the month of June, 1876, the Bishop in his annual address said, "Experience shows that the most experienced men for our missionary service are those trained on our own ground. Reasons for this will readily suggest themselves. Besides, every Bishop wants the use of all his own candidates during their Diaconate, a period of great practical importance, for the free work of itinerancy and in small stations, of which we have so much on hand. It is clear to me that we shall never be furnished with a full force of Evangelists and Associate Missioners till we educate them among ourselves. We ought, therefore, to be looking forward to that measure, and shaping plans for a training school at the center of the Diocese, conducted with a regular course of study, lectures in the different departments of scientific and pastoral Theology and parenetics by our own scholars, with terms of practical exercise under Parish ministers. Such a class of Candidates for Orders, near at hand, with their teachers, would be almost sure to impress many devout youths with the demands of the sacred calling, and to turn them toward it. It would be likely to act, too, I should think, as a bond of unity to our whole Diocesan family, creating a common object for the interested feeling of all, and engaging in its support some [5/6] friends in all quarters. It would thus form a most vital branch of our whole missionary system, the influence of it becoming manifest in a very few years, though the beginning would necessarily be small and unpretending."
On the sixteenth day of the following September, Saint Andrew's Divinity School was begun in a rented house on Highland Avenue, Syracuse, New York, with the Reverend Charles P. Jennings, D. D., received from the Diocese of Missouri, as Dean, at a salary of $2,000 a year and house rent. The sources of income to be relied upon by our brave and faithful Bishop were: The Society for the Increase of the Ministry, which provided $200 at least for each needy student; Saint Paul's Parish, Syracuse, which had hitherto supplied Saint John’s Mission services, on Grape streets now taken by the students, the Board of Missions, which pledged $1,000 for the Missionary work done in the neighborhood by the Clergy and students; and individual gifts.
The school was established to meet a particular need. It was thus stated by the Bishop, "It is found that many young men enter our Ministry without certain kinds of knowledge, certain forms of discipline and certain practical resources which are of great value both to the settled pastor and to the missionary or evangelist, and are, indeed, almost indispensable to their success. There are many things which they ought to know but which they find out only through a painful and mortifying experience, after they have entered upon their work. For the lack of this knowledge men of high and noble purposes often fail. One of the special objects of Saint Andrew's School is to supply this sort of instruction. Another definite object is to prepare candidates to meet all classes and conditions of men as missionaries and evangelists and to interest them in religion and the Church both by conversation [6/7] and preaching. It is well often for the best scholars and most accomplished writers to undergo the hardships of an itinerant ministry and to encounter the sudden exigencies and rough scenes where no other discourse avails than that which is direct, compact and simple as well as extemporaneous and earnest. It is not too much to say that very few of our Clergy at their ordination are ready for this sort of service. Yet a certain period of it, at least, would lend energy and effectiveness, point and power, to all their course and preaching afterwards. We hope to train our students in this kind of practice. Saint Andrew's School is arranged on the plan to include private counsel, social worship, charitable labors among the poor and ignorant, and a household life, where teachers and scholars are brought into intimate relations with one another."
In a pamphlet sent out by the Bishop at the inception of the school he makes this announcement and appeal: "The school has been planted more immediately for the training of candidates for Orders in the Diocese of Central New York. The regular course extends through three years. It will be endeavored to conduct it on such a plan, with such economy, that if any students from other Dioceses should seek to share its advantages, they may find here satisfactory preparation for Holy Orders at a very moderate cost. Should any liberal mind be moved to assist in the endowment of Saint Andrew's it may be remembered that the following are its chief wants: First: A Library, including sets of text books; Second: An inexpensive Chapel; Third: Scholarships for students; Fourth: Foundations of professorships and lectureships; Fifth: Ultimately, a suitable building; Sixth: Assistance in current expenses." Far too scantily did the Diocese heed this appeal, though loyal Churches and laymen, with unflagging interest, [7/8] enabled the Bishop to educate Seventy-Four men in the Sacred Ministry at Saint Andrews Divinity School.
Nine students, eight from this Diocese and one from Connecticut, were received at the opening of the school.
The school was incorporated on the seventh of January, 1878, the Act of Incorporation bearing the names of the Bishop, Joseph M. Clarke, D. D., Henry R. Lockwood, D. D. the Honorable Horace O. Moss and Honorable William Marvin. Most of the students lived with the Dean and his family in the rented house on Highland Avenues. In the record book kept by the Bishop's own hand, he mentions a new engagement with Dean Jennings, on October third, 1879, in which the Dean engaged to take three students for thirty weeks board and teaching, and to receive $600 therefrom. "If there should be more than three students, he is to have $5 a week additional for each one."
The staff of instructors at the opening of the school included besides the Dean and an Elocutionist, the Reverend Joseph M. Clarke, D. D., Rector of Saint James' Church, and the Reverend Henry R. Lockwood, Rector of Saint Paul's Church, Syracuse, both of whom gave gratuitous tuition. The Bishop gave lectures on Homiletics and Pastoral Theology and in Apologetics. In November, 1877, Professor Rudolph Wahl, formerly a Lutheran Minister, while studying for Holy Orders, took charge of the department of Hebrew and Greek for a year.
Dean Jennings remained in charge and at Saint Andrews' Hall, Syracuse, till 1880, when he accepted the call to the Rectorship of Saint James' Church, Skaneateles, N. Y., with the understanding that he should assist in the work of St. Andrew's, and receive at Skaneateles any students that it may be desirable [8/9] to place under his tuition for a partial or full course in accordance with the design of the institution. However, the Dean's name does not occur in the Journal in connection with St. Andrew's Divinity School, after 1880, and it therefore seems that the Bishop assumed the office of Dean and carried on the school with the aid of the Rev. Dr. Clarke, the Rev. W. F. Hubbard, and the Rev. Tandy Rucker, the Rev. J. H. Egar, Dr. Jennings and others until the year 1886. Of Dean Jennings the Bishop wrote: "He is a competent theological instructor, well known for his public contributions to systematic divinity."
The Rev. Joseph Morrison Clarke, D. D., acknowledged by all to be a scholar of fine attainments, especially in Greek, Hebrew, Ecclesiastical History, served the School as Instructor from its inception till the time of his death, November 30, 1899, except the five years (1886-1891) when he was at Nashotah. His Bishop loved him and wrote of him: "Considering well what the Rev. Joseph M. Clarke has been in weight of character, in just and wide reputation, as a theological, classical, and historical scholar, and in manifold services to the Diocese from its organization, as a rector, preacher, instructor in Saint Andrew's Divinity School, and Secretary and Chaplain to his Bishop, no more serious deprivation has befallen us, I think, than in his death last November.
On the 14th of February, 1886, the Rev. William Dexter Wilson, D. D., LLD, L. H. D., that rare scholar, theologian, and philosopher came to Syracuse and assumed the office of Dean of Saint Andrew's, which position he held till June, 1897, being at the same time Professor Emeritus of Mental and Moral Philosophy of Cornell University. In his Convention address of that year the Bishop says: "You are already aware of the acquisition to our educational [9/10] force, of the coming of the Rev. Dr. Wilson, of Ithaca, as Dean of Saint Andrew's, giving on terms almost gratuitous (receiving only his house rent) the fruits of his long experience and large acquirements as a theological master to the instruction of Candidates of Holy Orders." Dean Wilson was one of the great men of his time. In the eighteen years he was at Hobart College, Geneva, N. Y., he was practically president of the institution, and going to Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y., when it was organized, he was, during President White's connection with the institution, practically Director of the University. As an author and lecturer he had great success. His works on logic, mathematics, language and theology are well known and recognized authorities. He was honored by the degree of Doctor of Divinity from Hobart College in 1849; by the degree of Doctor of Laws from Dedford University, Tennessee, in 1868; and by the degree of Doctor of the History of Laws by the Regents of the University of the State of New York in 1872.
About the time Dr. Wilson became Dean the Rev. J. Everett Johnson began instruction in the school at a salary of $100. He continued to instruct in Dogmatic Theology and other branches till the school was closed. The Rev. William DeLancey Wilson, D. D., taught Greek and Latin from 1893 to 1897. In 1897 the Rev. E. Warren Saphore was added to the staff of instructors.
When Dr. Wilson resigned the office of Dean the Rev. Theodore Babcock was elected. Dean Babcock was connected with the Diocese of Central New York for many years, serving as a member of the Standing Committee for nineteen years. Of him the Standing Committee wrote: "His clear and well stored mind, his good practical sense, his loyalty to Church principles, his knowledge of ecclesiastical history and [10/11] Canon Law fitted him eminently for assisting in the wise and intelligent discharge of his duties." His death on February 28th, 1905, marks the close of the permanent existence of Saint Andrew's Divinity School.
There is every reason for the members of Saint Andrew's Alumni Association to be justly proud of the fact that they have been permitted to receive their instruction from these great scholars, some of whom have been perhaps, in certain respects the greatest, this or any other church ever possessed. It is further a matter of gratitude that we have been thus closely associated with the saintly and scholarly Father in God, Frederic Dan Huntington, whose very presence brought a benediction, and who is today assuredly, living that larger life "in God's most Holy Light."

After some discussion it was decided to start a fund to be known as the "Bishop Huntington Memorial Fund," the interest of which shall be paid annually to the Bishop of the Diocese of Central New York, to be used in the education of young men for the ministry.

Burgess' body lies in one of the cemeteries of this city (Grand Rapids, Mich.). On looking over the Parish Register, we find that out of the long list of Rectors, his record of work is the best in every way, and none of our predecessors are quite as dear to the hearts of those parishioners who remain with us as was he.

In an interview with him a very few days before he died I was impressed by his tranquility and maturity of mind, the courageous religious resignation, with which he was able to face the alternative of early death or a protracted infirmity, the clearness of his faith, and his superiority to complaint and fear."

[39] DONOHUE, Charles. Died February J, 1910. Rector of Holy Trinity Church, Manistee, Mich., and Secretary of the Diocesan Convention, at the age of 41 years.

On Tuesday evening, February 1st, he quietly passed unto Paradise, the Bishop of the Diocese, the Rt. Rev. Dr. McCormick, being with him at the time, together with his brother and sister, of Grand Rapids, and his aged mother, who made her home with him. On the following morning Bishop McCormick held a celebration of the Holy Communion and at 4 p. m. a largely attended public service was held by the Bishop in the Methodist house of worship, which was kindly offered for the purpose, as the repairs upon the recently injured parish church, due to fire, were not yet completed. Shortly after this service the casket was taken to Grand Rapids and the burial service held the day following at Saint Paul's church, where Rev. Mr. Donohue had been rector for nine years previous to his acceptance of the work at Manistee, about a year before. A large number of diocesan clergy were present at the funeral and the capacity of the church was overtaxed. A delegation of eleven parishioners were present from Manistee, including the vestry, who attended in a body. These vestrymen, with the vestry of Saint Paul's, Grand Rapids, were the honorary pall bearers, the active pall bearers being six of the diocesan clergy. The burial was in Greenwood cemetery, Grand Rapids, where the service was taken by Bishop McCormick and Dean Peters, of the pro-Cathedral, who also had taken the full service at the church. The Rev. Mr. Donohue had during his diaconate cared for a group of missions near Syracuse, N. Y. Then for four years he was rector of Grace Church, Waverly, N. Y.
