Pages Awaiting Transcription
Albert Allison James was salutatorian of the Davidson College class of 1848. He attended Columbia Theological Seminary and served in the Civil War as a chaplain. He was a pastor in South Carolina and Moderator of the Synod of South Carolina in 1898.
The diary was written during the second session of his junior year in college and the first session of his senior year. The one page addition on 18 March 1848 summarizes the last semester and the 1852 addition gives some additional biography along with lists of churches where he preached and the text for that day.
