RE: JWB and God
Many thanks to Jim G. for sending these photos and information:
"The first picture is of Henry Onderdonk. After St. Timothy's, he was the President of the Maryland Agricultural College (now University of Maryland). He was the target of some controversy when he was questioned about allowing Confederate troops encamp on college property. He resigned in protest. He also resurrected the College of St. James in 1867, after it was closed during the Civil War. It was/is located near Sharpsburg and following the battle of Sharpsburg, Gen. Jubal Early went through the campus on the way to cross the Potomac back into Virginia. Early took the headmaster and several faculty members hostage to ensure safe passage across the Potomac. St. James was converted to a boys boarding school with Onderdonk as headmaster. BTW, I graduated from St. James (along with Robert E. Lee V) and also University of Maryland. The second image is of the Baptismal font at St. Timothy's Episcopal Church (the last vestige of St. Timothy's Academy) and is the original font of the school where JWB was baptized." |
