The Making Of Wellington College; Being An Account Of The First Sixteen Years Of Its Existence. PREFACE. Seeing that many years have already elapsed since the foundation of the College, and that the first generation has practically passed away, I thought it desirable, before it were too late, to rescue from oblivion some records of tho early history of the College. As will bo seen, much of tho book consists of memories of tho late C. W. Penny, for whose notebooks, written after his retirement, I am indebted to his sister, Miss Theresn Penny. I have also, through the courtesy of tho present Master, W. W. Vaughan, M.V.O., had access to the letters and reports written by Dr. Benson, which on his death were confided to the custody of the School. Further, I am indebted to the late A. H. Browne, who joined the School when it opened, for a sketch of those earliest years and to E. K. Purnell, O.B.E., for valuable notes on the sixties.
