Natural Science Professor Charles F. Himes (Class of 1855) describes his experience in photographing the solar eclipse in Ottumwa, Iowa on August 7, 1869 . "Favored as we were with a sky free from cloud or haze, and a beautiful point of view, this phenomenon left an inerasable impression upon our minds and hearts," Dr. Himes observes.
