thus learned historic facts not from books of written history, but from
men who were makers of the history.
Why the Writing was Delayed
In less than eight months after the massacre, gold was discovered in
California and Oregon, and no other event so absorbed the attention
of the population of the Pacific Coast or we might say of the whole
United States. They thought of little else for ten years. During the
same period, an Indian war following the Whitman massacre was in
progress in Oregon. Before these excitements ceased, the political
upheavals, beginning in 1856, culminated in 1860. Then followed the
great struggle of the Civil War, when giants met in battle, and the
very existence of the nation hung upon the success of the men
behind the flag. After 1865, the starry flag floated from ocean to
ocean, from the lakes to the Gulf, came the troublous period of
reconstruction—railroad-building and money-making as never before
witnessed in the Republic.
It is not at all strange that under such conditions, at least such
history as was made by a poor country doctor and his noble,
unselfish wife should have been for the time neglected. Who will say
that it is too late to remember such? In every civilized land the
historian's pen, the painter's brush, and the sculptor's art have been
taxed to place upon the library shelves historical books, upon the
walls paintings, and upon pedestals sculptured marble; thus
commemorating the noble dead, their great names live again as
educators of the people.
The Memorials to Whitman Few
After leaving Oregon, the writer did not return for forty-five years; in
the interim were wondrous changes. The giant forests of firs had
disappeared, while cities, towns, and country homes, and waving
wheat-fields had taken their places. But as I stood at "the Great
Grave" of the martyrs, it alone was undisturbed and unchanged, in
all these years!
To the great credit of loyal pioneers of Oregon who knew Whitman
and his work, upon the fiftieth anniversary of his death erected a
stately marble column above the grave and secured five acres of
ground about it, while the Christian people of Walla Walla built a
little Memorial Mission Church at the place of the massacre.
In a previous chapter we noted the action of the American Board
and the Presbyterian statue to Whitman upon the fiftieth anniversary
of his death.
It is gratifying to observe these marked evidences of awakened
interest in the long-neglected Oregonian hero. It is but the
beginning, for the name and honor of Marcus Whitman will shine
with new luster in the years to come.
The Grand Memorial is Whitman College
It needs no argument to convince intelligent readers, young or old,
that to such a character as Whitman, a great institution of learning is
the best and most appropriate memorial. While it is a constant
reminder of a noble, unselfish, patriotic Christian life, it is also a
blessing to the whole people within its reach, by building up
intellectual and moral character in the young men and women of
that land for which he gave his life.
The story of Whitman College, like the life of the man it
commemorates, gives a lesson in faith.
Dr. Cushing Eells was the co-worker with Whitman, and perhaps
knew the inner life of the man better than any other. After the
massacre he was driven from his post, but returned to the Indian
country as soon as it was opened to white people. He at once visited
the tragic grounds at Waiilatpui. As he stood uncovered at the great
grave of his beloved friends, he writes in his diary:

"I believe the power of the Highest came upon me, and I asked,
What can I do to honor the memory of these Christian martyrs
who did so much for the nation and humanity? I felt if Dr.
Whitman could be consulted he would prefer a high school for
the benefit of both sexes, rather than a monument of marble."

We must remember that at that time there were very few schools in
the Pacific States above the grade of the ordinary country district
school.
The subject impressed him, and as he thought and prayed, it came
to him as his life work and duty, to build such a monument. In
memory of his friend he laid the matter before his good wife, it met
with her cordial approval; and then before the Congregational
Council, and they enthusiastically indorsed the work, and in a closing
minute said, "The Whitman Seminary is in memory of the noble
deeds and great work of the late lamented Dr. Whitman and his
noble wife."

MEMORIAL HALL WHITMAN COLLEGE.


YOUNG MEN'S DORMITORY, WHITMAN
COLLEGE.
Dr. Eells, like Whitman, was a very poor man. The people about
them were poor. But they were rich in the kind of "Faith that
removes mountains." To financiers of modern times who demand
millions for schools the outlook for Whitman Seminary would not
have been marked as "promising." Dr. Eells bought the great
Whitman Mission farm from the American Board for one thousand
dollars (on credit), and began work. He and his wife were then well
along in years, but that did not count, and they had two sons of like
mind who still live to tell the story. For six years he plowed, sowed,
reaped, and preached a free Gospel up and down the valley; while
the good wife made butter, raised chickens, spun and wove, and at
the end of that time, they had accumulated six thousand dollars to
start Whitman Seminary. The charter was granted, the foundations
laid, and work begun. The time came, years later, when the
seminary grew into a college, and Dr. Eells had such strong and able
men to aid and advise him as Dr. Anderson, the first president, Dr.
Atkinson, Dr. Lyman, Dr. Spalding, and many others. But the college,
while it had from the outset a good reputation, was poor; there was
no endowment, and the young men and women to be educated
were poor. Dr. Eells devoted his time and life energies to his task,
but in spite of all they had to place a mortgage of thirteen thousand
five hundred dollars upon the property. One has to read the story in
Dr. Eells' diary to know it in its completeness. In its darkest days,
when the faith of others was small, his was still as strong as at the
beginning. The last entries in his diary, just before his death, were
prayers for the upbuilding and full success of Whitman College.
The Story of Long Ago, and its Sequel
The sacred word says, "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in
pictures of silver!" Who can overestimate the power of a good word
or a good act? Drop a stone in the middle of a placid lake and the
circles begin and widen until they reach the farthest shore. So with
good words and good acts, they go on and on into the great future,
in ways we know not of.
Congressman Thurston was a Maine man—a fine type physically,
intellectually, and morally. He had early immigrated to Oregon, and
was the first congressman from that territory. It was too far to return
to Oregon for his summer vacation, over the slow routes of that day,
so he went up to Chicopee, Massachusetts, to spend the summers of
1848 and 1849. The house where he boarded was one of the old-
fashioned New England double houses, with a wide porch across the
entire front. It so happened that a young doctor and his wife
occupied the other side of the house, and the front portico was the
common retreat in the long summer evenings. He loved to tell of the
majestic forests of fir and pine trees, fifteen feet in diameter and
three hundred feet high, of the grand rivers, rich soil, and its great
future. It was not until 1848 that word reached the States of the
tragic disaster at Waiilatpui, and the death of his dear friends, Dr.
and Mrs. Whitman. The incidents and heroism of their lives were told
by the eloquent, earnest congressman, in a way that made a deep
and lasting impression upon the young doctor and his good wife.
They were seriously casting about for some wider field in life, and
were almost persuaded to make Oregon their future home. Upon the
homeward journey to Oregon in 1850, Congressman Thurston lost
his life in a great ocean disaster upon the Pacific. The writer was in
Oregon at the time, and well remembers the wave of sorrow that
spread throughout the territory. After the death of Thurston, the
young doctor gave up the Far Western journey, but he still had "the
western fever," removed to Illinois, and bought a small farm.
Prospecting through that state, Wisconsin and Michigan, he made up
his mind that there was money in pine land, and beginning in a
small way, marketed the timber, and made money. He at once
invested all his money in pine timberland, bought and sold, and ever
bought more pine, and the time came when he could readily sell for
four times the cost of it. He was an observant man, and his success
in locating and selling, by his straightforward way of doing business,
soon attracted the attention of capitalists, and they persuaded him
to settle in Chicago and buy and sell for them. Soon an immense
business was in his hands, which continued for years, and left him
with a fortune. He wearied with the years of intense business
activity, retired, and said to himself, here is a snug little fortune,
what is to be done with it? In the language of a notable address,
delivered by the doctor before a great audience at Battle Creek,
when he said, "These dead hands can carry nothing out! What,
gentlemen, are you going to do with your money?" He soon settled
upon a plan to spend his, and that was to use it through deserving
struggling Colleges, to give to poor young men and women an
intellectual, moral, and religious training. He believed that every
institution for its permanency and security should have a healthy,
interested, money-giving constituency about it, and so he gave in a
way to induce others to give, and aids no institution where the Bible
and moral training are neglected. I scarcely need tell my intelligent
readers this person is D. K. Pearsons, M.D., LL.D., of Chicago, now
eighty-six years old.
I have given, in brief, a sketch of his work in this connection, first
because of his direct association with it, and secondly, because it
pointedly marks what we have tried to show from historic facts in all
the chapters—that Power higher than man's power can be traced
and studied.
We often speak of all such as "accidental happenings." Were they?
Did the four Flathead chiefs accidentally, in 1831-32, appear in the
streets of St. Louis upon their strange mission and there meet their
old friend the great red-head chief? Were Drs. Whitman and
Spalding and their wives accidentally in Oregon? Was his heroic ride
to save Oregon in 1842 an accident? Was it accidental that he was
on the border in 1843 to lead that great immigration to Oregon in
safety? The Oregon of to-day was dependent upon the safety of that
great company in 1843. Was it all accidental that Congressman
Thurston met Dr. Pearsons in 1848-49 at Chicopee, Massachusetts,
and by "words fitly spoken," that forty-five years after he had rested
in his watery grave were found to be "apples of gold in pictures of
silver"?
We all view such events from different standpoints, and I do not
stop to argue, only to state facts historically accurate. There are
accidents in the physical world from violated laws certainly, but in
the moral uplift of the race there seems to be an invisible hand, and
an agency greater than man's power. Wise as the race has grown,
we cannot understand and explain the mysteries that surround us. I
see the poor young Doctor in 1848 struggling to master his
professional work, and I see him again in 1894, old and rich, and in
January of that year, he sat musing by the fire in his winter home in
Georgia, and he took his pen and wrote:

Lithia Springs, Georgia, January, 1894.


To the President of Whitman College, Walla Walla,
Washington:—
Dear Sir:
I will give Whitman College fifty thousand dollars for
endowment, provided friends of the College will raise one
hundred and fifty thousand additional,
Yours,
D. K. Pearsons.
REV. S. B. L. PENROSE, PRESIDENT OF
WHITMAN COLLEGE
Some may say "Nothing strange in that. Dr. Pearsons had made
large gifts to thirty-four different colleges." That is true. I one day
asked him, "Did any one ever ask that gift to Whitman College?" He
replied, "No; no one asked me for a dollar, and the president of the
college evidently thought my proposition preposterous, for he never
even replied to my letter." It was in the dark days of the college.
President Eaton was a good man, but he had lost the strong faith of
his predecessors, and soon after resigned. Just then the Yale Band
of Missionaries invaded Washington, and Rev. S. B. L. Penrose, a
man of Eells faith and Whitman's courage and perseverance, was
chosen president. He at once visited Dr. Pearsons, thanked him for
his generous offer, and set about his task of raising the money. The
difficulty was in getting a start. On June 20, 1895, the book "How
Marcus Whitman Saved Oregon" was published in Chicago, and on
the Fourth of July, Sunday, two weeks later, forty ministers in
Chicago and neighboring places took Marcus Whitman as a patriotic
text. Many of them took up collections for the memorial college, and
the Congregational Club gave its check for one thousand dollars.
Virginia Dox, an eloquent and enthusiastic pleader, took up the work,
carrying it through Michigan, along northern and central Ohio and all
New England from Maine to Massachusetts, and the one hundred
and fifty thousand was raised, and the Doctor's fifty thousand
added. The Doctor, in the meanwhile has paid off the mortgage debt
of thirteen thousand five hundred dollars. Everything looked brighter.
But the buildings were poor and over-crowded, the campus of five
acres too small. It was a good fortune which enabled the directors to
buy eighteen acres adjoining, and admirably adapted for the
purpose.
Dr. Pearsons then said, "You need a dormitory for young men, where
they can be cheaply and comfortably fed and housed, and I will give
fifty thousand dollars to erect a memorial building to Dr. and Mrs.
Whitman if others will erect the dormitory." Through the aid of Mrs.
Billings of New York (the largest giver), Billings and Memorial halls
went up simultaneously. Then Dr. Pearsons said, the girls need a
dormitory as well as the boys, let others build it, and I will give fifty
thousand to endowment. It was done.
The people of Walla Walla, though possessed of no surplus wealth,
came nobly to the rescue and contributed several thousand dollars,
and the poor professors and many students literally gave "all that
they had, even all their living," in making up the required sum. And
so it has been from the beginning a college built by faith and self-
denial. It has still many great needs, but its friends still hope and
believe that its wants will be supplied.
Some time ago the writer read the story of an orphan newsboy, a
waif of the streets, but a manly little chap. He attended a mission
Sunday school and became a Christian boy. Some weeks later, one of
the smart young men half-sneeringly said to the boy, as he looked at
his broken shoes and tattered garments, "Well, my boy, if I believed
in God as you do, I would ask Him to tell some of those rich church
people to give me some better shoes and nicer clothes." The little
fellow looked troubled for a moment, and then replied, "I expect He
did, but they forgot."
It was one of the great characteristics of the men and women of
these pages, that they listened, heard, and never "forgot."
The world to-day, and in the generation to follow, is in need of
strong men and noble women. Greater problems than the fathers
have solved will the sons be called to solve. Be ready for them.
Mistaken Christian teachers have sometimes used the words
"Prepare to die." Change them to read "Prepare to live," and may
you live long and bless the world by your living. In this land of ours,
the poorest can aspire to and reach out for grand achievements. The
poor, half-orphan boy, conning his lessons by a pine knot fire in his
grandfather Whitman's old New England home, or as he went
through his classical course, and the study of his profession, then
learned to be a millwright, and learned all about machinery, perhaps
never dreamed of the great work he was to be called to do. He
simply did it all well! That is the key which unlocks the future good
things of earth, and swings wide open the everlasting doors of the
eternal world. You are here for work in a broad field, and while you
toil, be happy, joyous, contented, and make others the same. The
children of earth are in partnership with the Great Ruler of the
universe in the moral government of this world. His great law is love.
Love is the greatest word in the language. The Bible represents
God's love, as "like a flowing river." Drink deep of it, as have our
heroes and heroines, and when taps are sounded, whether in the
quiet of your homes or amid the yells of savage men, as befell our
loved ones, you can say with St. Paul, even when the feet of his
murderers echoed from the walls of his dungeon, "I have fought a
good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith,
thenceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness." You
can sing with Tennyson in his age:

"Twilight and evening bell,


And after that the dark;
And may there be no sadness of farewell
When I embark.

"And though from out the bourne of Time and Place


The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar."

THE END.

copyright law means that no one owns a United States
copyright in these works, so the Foundation (and you!) can copy
and distribute it in the United States without permission and
without paying copyright royalties. Special rules, set forth in the
General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to copying and
distributing Project Gutenberg™ electronic works to protect the
PROJECT GUTENBERG™ concept and trademark. Project
Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if
you charge for an eBook, except by following the terms of the
trademark license, including paying royalties for use of the
Project Gutenberg trademark. If you do not charge anything for
copies of this eBook, complying with the trademark license is
very easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such
as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and
research. Project Gutenberg eBooks may be modified and
printed and given away—you may do practically ANYTHING in
the United States with eBooks not protected by U.S. copyright
law. Redistribution is subject to the trademark license, especially
commercial redistribution.

discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of

you cause.

Section 2. Information about the Mission


of Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new
computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of
volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the


assistance they need are critical to reaching Project
Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™
collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In
2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was
created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project
Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the
Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your
efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the
Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project


Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-
profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the
laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status
by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or
federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions
to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax
deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and

Section 4. Information about Donations to
the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission
of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works
that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form
accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated
equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly
important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws


regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of
the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform
and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many
fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not
solicit donations in locations where we have not received written
confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine
the status of compliance for any particular state visit
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states


where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know
of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from
donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot


make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations
received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp
our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current


donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a
number of other ways including checks, online payments and
credit card donations. To donate, please visit:
www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About


Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could
be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose
network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several


printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by
copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus,
we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any
particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,


including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new
eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear
about new eBooks.
