Often, since that time, the names of these gentlemen appear among the benefactors of the Library. For the next valuable accession to the Library— designated " the subscription of 1825" — the College is indebted to the efforts of Mr. Horatio Gates Bowen, who was Librarian of the Institution from 1824 to 1841. At his request several of the friends of the College subscribed eight hundred and forty dol- lars, which sum was expended in the purchase of books.
