Annual Report1860 1907 PDF Download

Excerpt from Annual Reports President and Treasurer, 1907 Beautiful and restful as this early part of the year was, it was all more or less within my range of experience, as I had often seen Switzerland, and had lived for months at a time in Italy. The new part of the year came in December, when on the sixteenth I sailed from Naples to Alexandria. Then came an entirely new world. We hastened directly to Cairo, and made our first visit to salute the Sphinx, with the massive pyramids guarding it. One seems to step back in history. Time no longer exists. One comes into some thing that seems elemental and universal, standing before these immense monuments of an unknown race.
