_________________________________________________
     (1) This list is taken from the general catalogue, and being quite familiar with
Virginia names, I think it represents quite accurately the Virginia representa-
tives.  As the matriculation book is not preserved, no accurate list can be
given of those who entered and did not stay to graduation.
