Excerpt from Addresses at the Inauguration of Rev. Cyrus D. Foss, D.D., As President of Wesleyan University: Tuesday, October 26th, 1875

The duty which has been devolved upon me I'have undertaken with unfeigned reluctance. For to me, as to all but one of my colleagues, it seemed that our only fitting representative was that one preeminent in scholarly character and in services to the College, and honored in being the personal friend of you; whom, with all the cordiality Of intimate friendship, we would welcome. I have under taken this duty with reluctance; yet I should be false to my own feelings did I not avow the profound satisfaction which I feel in its performance. For there is a joy in utterance when out of.the abundance of the heart the mouth may Speak.
