MAN

The biography of James Kennedy Patterson refers to the University of
Kentucky as, borrowing Emerson's phrase, the "lengthened shadow of one
man." Dr. Patterson left n will with a literary legacy and literary executives. He appointed Miss Mabel Hardy Pollltt nnd Dr. William Benjamin
Smith his literary executors, placing In their hands alljils correspondence,
addresses and papers from which to select, prepare, edit and publish a
biography.
Never unmindful of the institution for which so long ho labored, Presi"My desire is
dent Patterson Included further In that provision of his will,
they give special care and attention to such matters as relate to the
that
growth of the university and my connection with it."
The creator part of tbo volume was prepared by Miss Pollltt and she
very aptly says that Dr Patterson did not say what university he meant
when he said "the university," but there was no doubt as to which ho meant
among those who knew him. Acknowledgement Is given of the assistance
of Reuben Thornton Taylor, Charles N. Manning, Samuel
Frances Jewell McVoy ami Professor Walter Patterson.
