Testimonials presented to Dr. HARE, Professor of Chymistry and Natural Philosophy, in Wil- liam and Mary College, by the Junior and Senior Students attending his Chymical Lectures. WE whose names are hereunto subscribed, do certify, upon a review of the course of Chymical Lectures delivered by Dr. Hare, during the present session in this institution, that he has explained the principles ofChymistry to his class, with perspicuity and ability, exhibiting a great variety of experiments successfully executed, and well adapted for the pur- pose of elucidating the subject for which they were introduced. We moreover acknowledge, and take this mode of expressing our thanks, that we are in- debted to him, not only for the fidelity with which he has discharged bis duties in the lecture room, but more especially for bis laborious and unparalleled exertions which he made for the class in the labora- tory, in renovating and preparing the apparatus so as to ensure as far as possible the success of the ex- periments, and to enlarge their sphere. Signed, &c. Williamsburgh, June 2d, 1818.
