Synopsis
Excerpt from A Biographical Record of the Kappa Alpha Society in Williams College, Williamstown, Mass: From Its Foundation to the Present Time, 1833-1881
The Record here presented is intended primarily as a Society reference-book. Hence it is prepared with a freedom and a minuteness which would, perhaps, be out of place in a work intended for the general reader merely, nothing of any apparent biographical value or interest having been sacrificed in its construction.
