sermon in Dartmouth College
Church, "Jesus Exalted yet Divine," in 1859, and a memorial sermon on
Professor Roswell Shurtleff, in 1861. In 1836, with Professor Gregg,
he assumed the editorship of the "Ohio Observer" published at Hudson.
In their first address to their readers is this passage: "In relation
to the subject of slavery we shall take the high ground that man is
man and cannot therefore be treated and used as property without sin,
that immediate emancipation is a duty, and that it is therefore the
duty of every man to pray and strive in every virtuous way for the
abolition of slavery." The last date of an editorial is June, 1837.

Professor Long married Rhoda Ensign, daughter of Alpha Rockwell, of
Winsted, Connecticut. He died at Hanover, October 14, 1861.

Propriety forbids more than the briefest reference to a large number

Dartmouth's professors, in the Academical department. Otherwise we
might dwell, with profit, upon the name of the able theologian, George
Howe; of the eminent linguist, Calvin E. Stowe; of that strong and

from Natural to Political Science, with unceasing interest, and

undiminished affection; of Charles A. Aiken, the critical and
accomplished linguist, whose loss by the college was deemed almost
irreparable; of William A. Packard, who, in a kindred department gave
early promise of his later success; of Charles A. Young, whose
scientific researches have added to the fame of his family, his
college, and his country. Nor should the
