&lt;p&gt;Line 16            &amp;amp; some times to be restrained in pursuits, which to them&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Line 18            the inexperienced, repeated &amp;amp; exaggerated as they will be by&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 19            the ill-disposed, will do much injury both to the in-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 20            dividuals &amp;amp; the cause. In this case, also the Board                 &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 21            consider, that the ^ safest &amp;amp; the mildest, &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;remedy&lt;/span&gt; guard against evil is, to bring the stu-&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Line 23            by way of asking leave of absence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 24&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 25                        In the regulations, which they have adopted, the Board&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 26            have had in view the great object&lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;s&lt;/span&gt; of excluding from the&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 27            seminary, matters foreign to its legitimate &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;objects&lt;/span&gt; purposes;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 28            securing the greatest prosperity to the Institution, &amp;amp; the greatest&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 29            weight to its religious influence; &amp;amp; guarding the students&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 30            against causes tending to lessen their usefulness in the world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 31            They have acted upon the principle, as they will ever consider&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 32            themselves bound to do, that wholesome regulations in a&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 33            seminary of learning, must be carefully established, &amp;amp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 34            rigidly enforced, with mildness, but with firmness; &amp;amp; that&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 35            pupils, who do not cheerfully acquiesce in such a [unclear] of                      &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 36            government, will not be deserving^ or useful objects of its care.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Lane_068)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 1                                      3.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 2              It is evident to all, who are accustomed to observe&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 3              the signs of the times, that there is at present in&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 4              our country among all classes &amp;amp; departments of&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 5              Community, a strong &amp;amp; growing propensity to                                  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 6              insubordination, &lt;b&gt;_&lt;/b&gt; a disposition – to set up ^individual; &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;private&lt;/span&gt;                      &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Line 8              authority, &lt;b&gt;_&lt;/b&gt; to justify resistance to law by private&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 9              opinion against its policy or propriety.  When such a&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 10            spirit develops itself in midnight riots, or public rebell-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 11            ion against the laws of the land; we all regard&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 12            it with horror:  Yet it is but the workings&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 13            of the same spirit, which arrays the students of&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 14            our colleges in hostility to the regulations established&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 15            by their constituted [rules].  If allowed thus in youth,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 16            it may become most pernicious in age; &amp;amp;, if indulged&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 17            at all among the reputable &amp;amp; the educated, what must we&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 18            not expect among the profligate &amp;amp; the ignorant!  If&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 19            students of a theological seminary are allowed thus,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 20            unconsiously, but most efficiently, to act in alliance&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 21            with the rioters &amp;amp; [unclear] of the day, we may&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 22            well despair of the Republic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 23                        Entertaining such views, the Board have                                &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 24            regarded it as no objection to the rules ^ now adopted, that they&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 25            may be met with decided hostility by some indiscreet&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 26            individuals among the students, or that in practice&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 27            they may be sensibly felt by the pupils as a contin-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 28            ued restraint on their movements.  Among the &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;free&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 29            institutions of our country, where every thing is freedom,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 30            there is little danger of too much restraint; all the&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 31            tendencies are to the opposite extreme; &amp;amp; a course&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 32            of intellectual &amp;amp; moral discipline, which habituates                     &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 33            the mind to ^implicit submission to rules, &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;however reluctantly&lt;/span&gt;, will&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 34            be greatly useful &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;in its influences on the character.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 35            if not [partially] necessary, to the proper formation of&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 36            character.&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Lane_069)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 1              the slavery question, &amp;amp; unless this impression can be re-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 2              moved, &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;that&lt;/span&gt; the prosperity of the Institution will be much                  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 3              retarded, &amp;amp; its usefulness ^greatly diminished.  To avoid these&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 4              difficulties, the Board can discover ^ no &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;to&lt;/span&gt; way but to require&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 5              the societies referred to, to be discontinued.  The students&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 6              themselves, who are sufficiently informed on the subject, &amp;amp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 7              look upon it dispassionately, cannot object to this&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 8              step:  &amp;amp; the Board also think it important, that&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 9              all societies in the seminary should be organized&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 10            under some sort of supervision on the part of&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 11            the Faculty.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 12                        Such societies are framed to perpetuate them-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 13            selves, &amp;amp; may exert a great influence upon the opin-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 14            ions &amp;amp; moral characters of many successive classes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 15            It is due to the students, &amp;amp; to those, who entrust their&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 16            children to the care of the Institution, that the door&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 17            should not be left open for employing such influ-&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 18            ences in a way to counteract the efforts of the&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 19            legitimate Instructors.  The same consideration is&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 20            applicable to the practice of public [unclear] addresses &amp;amp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 21            lectures among the students.  In relation to ^both these ^ matters the&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 22            Board consider, that the [least] exceptionable mode&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 23            of securing to the Faculty their proper control, is to&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 24            require leave to be obtained from them in the first&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 25            instance.  This restriction does not imply any disap-                    &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 26            probabation of proper associations &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;societies&lt;/span&gt;, or debates:  It merely operates                   &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 27            to bring the ^ subject &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;matters&lt;/span&gt; before the Faculty in the first in-          &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Line 28            stance, before any feelings are excited; &amp;amp; &lt;span style="text-decoration:line-through;"&gt;gives&lt;/span&gt; ^ which a&lt;/p&gt;
