Most of the pictures I have seen of Mr. Marsh present him with a smooth face and a boyish look.

This is from an excellent wood engraving which appeared in Harper's Weekly soon after his death.

A sketch of the college buildings as they appeared in 1790. From the Ticknor drawing which hangs in Parkhurst Hall. Below the original picture are six lines of verse, and the following statement:

"This view of the principal buildings of Dartmouth University is humbly inscribed to the Honorable John Wheelock, Esquire, LL. D., President, by George Ticknor, Delineator, and Member of the Sophomore Class, aged eleven years, July, 1802.

The buildings seem to have changed little between 1790 and 1820 when George P. Marsh graduated.

Of the every-day life in Hanover in 1816-1820 little seems to be known. The great quarrel was on during a part of that time, and the few students in the University and the larger numbers in the College had occasional dissensions. But apparently study was the first thing, "proms" and great games were unknown, and the "College Spirit was present wit out being prominent or loudly proclaimed.
