Journal of William Shunk (Copy)

William Findlay Shunk, a member of the class of 1847, describes his flight from Dickinson College in April 1846 in his journal. "Amid all my troubles, feeling as if I was under the curse of god and my father [Pennsylvania Governor Francis R. Shunk], I feel as if I would endure ten times as much before I would go back to Dickinson College," as Shunk explains. This is a copy of the original journal. Transcript included.
