Morrill Hall
No full textOverall view, south end and facade facing Arts Quad; Morrill Hall was named after Sen. Justin Morrill of Vermont, author of the Land Grant Act of 1862. It was opened on October 7, 1868 and cost $70,111. The Second Empire French structure was divided into three sections to represent the three original functions of the building. The center section contained classrooms, a library, and a large auditorium, while the north section contained student residences arranged in suites and the south side professors' and the President's offices. An interesting historical note is that these three sections were not interconnected within the building itself until much later, so movement from section to section required going outside of the building. The building was originally named South University Building, and is made of bluestone quarried from the base of Libe Slope. Along with White Hall and McGraw Hall, it reveals the original plan to have the University face the valley and western slopes of Ithaca. Cyrus Kinne Porter (1828-January 30, 1910) was a prominent architect in Buffalo, New York. In 1865 Porter moved to Buffalo, entering into partnership with H. M. Wilcox as Wilcox & Porter.

[Letter] Sunday Morning, Weymouth Street [to] Chinnery[?], Manchester Square / Jane Porter.
No full textPorter thanks the recipient for her letter and states that nothing but extreme illness could have kept her from responding "and even now I write from my Bed. I am sufficiently better not to be confined within it, but I am not strong enough to remain off it." She hopes to be able to receive her visitor as her illness is nothing to alarm: a combination of nervousness and rheumatism, "both of which torments wreaked their utmost malice on my unhappy head." Porter wishes her friend a pleasant two-month stay on the Continent and asks about her traveling companions. She promises to present her friend to her brother upon his return from his travels in 18 months and makes some observations on society and human nature. Porter is remembered as the author of novels like _Thaddeus of Warsaw _ (1803) and _The Scottish Chiefs_ (1804) about William Wallace. The brother referred to here may be Robert Ker Porter, the painter, to whom Jane was devoted

In 1979, Porter was given a major retrospective at Franklin Furnace in New York City, and a show of Porter’s work in the The Museum of Modern Art Library was shown at MoMA in 2010. - Mark Melnicove, 2010
