M. Crouch, Sadie Stutsman, L. W. Shultz and many more. 1. One bible with signatures. 2. One small page with "Aid Society Institute of the Church of the Brethren" on the front with a program that was to be held at The Brick Church 28 May 1925. One the back are handwritten notes. 3. A signed letter from Dan West to Gladdys Muir was folded up and inserted in the bible. It is dated 26 march 1951. The letter has been moved to the Gladdys Muir file in the faculty/staff box.
| Date of Accession | 20 February 2009 | Bio History Note | The Bible is copywrighted, 1902 and so the Archivist is supposing that signatures were added after 1902 but before Sadie Stutsman was married to Wampler and while E. M. Crouch was President. If research was done on the time that the students and faculty included in the signatures were at Manchester, a more accurate time-frame might be established.
Signatures include but are not limited to:
Sadie Stutsman (this was probably before her marriage to Wampler)
Lova Dickey
Pearl Coulson
Nettie E. Studebaker
Caroline McCobb
Charles A. Light
Cordelia Crouch (relation to President Crouch?)
David L. Stoner
Ross Myer
La. Virgie Long
Margaret Pfeiffer
Florence Studebaker
F. A. Wilkes
Ada Weybright
Myrtle Pfeiffer
Mae Dunbar
Ray Kitterman
Albert Kindy
E. M. Crouch (this would be E. M. Crouch, Professor 1895 and President of Manchester College 1901 - 1910)
