Excerpt from Oberlin Perfectionism: Article One But he discovered himself going south instead. An irre sistible impression drove him without any clear intelligence justifying his action, in the wrong direction. So he reached Cincinnati instead of New York, and found - Mahan; who, everybody in Cincinnati told him, was the very person he was seeking. He thought so too; and with the more con fidence that he could see now that he had been divinely guided to him. Mahan had a whole Theological Seminary ready for removal to Oberlin. There had been an aboli tionist organization among the students of Lane Theological Seminary, which the Trustees of that Institution had en deavored to suppress. The result was that the students had withdrawn from the Seminary, practically in a body; and, housed near by, were endeavoring to continue their theo logical education independently, with only the aid of John Morgan, who had been tutor in the preparatory department at Lane and had withdrawn with the students. Mahan had been the single member of the Board of Trustees who had taken the students' part; and he now proposed that they, with Morgan, should go with him to Oberlin, thus com pleting at a stroke the three-storied structure proposed for that institution.
