It is re- membered amoDg scholars as the birth- 54 Church in America place, in 1776, of the oldest literary society in this country, the Phi Beta Kappa. It is taken into account by his- torians as the nursery of the Southern men who took their great part in the making of the nation. Thonias Jeffer- son, the author of the Declaration of In- dependence, and John Marshall, the inter- preter of the Constitution, were educated there. George Washington was Chan- cellor of the college. Out of this ins...ti- tution came young men of character and learning to minister to the parishes of the colonial church. The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts (The " Vener- able Society," the "S. P. G.") was the first fruit of a new missionary zeal in England, and of a new interest in the welfare of the colonies. From the time of its formation the supply of clergy for the colonial church increased greatly, and much care was taken in the selection of them. The first missionaries of the So- 55 The Episcopal ciety, George Keith and John Talbot, made a general visitation of the colonies.
