Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the First Presbyterian Church, Sparta, Illinois: Diamond Jubilee, June 4, 1944 Our church is not as old as many of the churches in this com munity but our name is the one given the church in Scotland after the Reformation and before there were any divisions. With grateful and humble pride we see our beautiful church today, with all the various rooms and their equipment, but we are equally proud that we can trace our history to a church of one room, with a vestibule and belfry.

Drafts of minutes of the church made by the secretary, John Smythe Richardson. They include reports on building, repairs, furnishing the parsonage, financial statements and resolutions. A leave of absence, 1871 July 29, was granted to Reverend Donald McQueen, pastor, "to strengthen him in body & thus render him still more efficient."
The Presbyterian Church united with the Congregational Church. Of the 3 churches, only the Presbyterian Church remains in Morris today.
"This book is the result of a study in which the authors identified all of the American women who earned PhD's in mathematics before 1940, and collected extensive biographical and bibliographical information about each of them. By reconstructing as complete a picture as possible of this group of women, Green and LaDuke reveal insights into the larger scientific and cultural communities in which they lived and worked." "The book contains an extended introductory essay, as well as biographical entries for each of the 228 women in the study. The authors examine family backgrounds, education, careers, and other professional activities. They show that there were many more women earning PhD's in mathematics before 1940 than is commonly thought." "The material will be of interest to researchers, teachers, and students in mathematics, history of mathematics, history of science, women's studies, and sociology."--BOOK JACKET.
