Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings and Addresses at Allentown, Oct. 14, 1898, Vol. 9 In February, 1867, a meeting was held in the Allen House of Special importance to pennsylvania-germans, who are charged by some men with having no interest in higher education. It was the meeting of stockholders which led to the organization of Muhlenberg College, which is the pride of Allentown and has benefited young men of many localities and been a great blessing to many pennsylvania-germans. Truly, we have reason as members of the Pennsylvania German Society to rejoice on meeting on such historic ground. We have come to Allentown not only to receive, but also to give, and I have no doubt that what our worthy President, the Superintendent of the Public Schools of our great Commonwealth, a genuine pennsylvania-german, will say to us this morning, and what the Rev. Dr. Rich ards, a descendant of the patriarch of the Lutheran Church in America, will present to us this afternoon will strengthen the interest of. The present members and awaken a desire on the part of many, who have not yet become members of the Society, to seek its good fellowship.
