K. Foster, director of student activities. It was erected to be used as an observatory but since that time it has seen service as a school house, a storage room, a fraternity house, and perhaps other things. Somewhere near 1850 the trustees of the University acceded to the wishes of Professor Mat Williams, who taught astronomy as well as mathematics at that time, to erec* an observatory and equip it with a seven inch telescope in a movable dome run by clockwork. On its completion Professor Williams reported that the seniors had enjoyed several evenings in contemplation of the stars. It seems that this must have been the extent of the use of the observatory. After the war Professor John LeConte reported to the board of trustees that the building was dilapidated and that the telescope had been stolen and broken up to be sold for old brass. The building later became a fraternity house and was so used until fraternities were abolished from the University in 1897. Some years after this it was used as a school house for an observation school, then as a place to house golf clubs, and as an office for Professor Hand, high school supervisor, evolving finally into offices for the director of student activities and athletics as it is used today. The first library and science building was put up on the campus in 1816 and at this time provisions were made for an observatory, which was to have a small telescope in a revolving dome. The location of this intended structure is not certain but it was probably some distance from a small building which was put up later. u. 8. o.
