Having as its germ Alpha Alpha, a local society, organized in 1844, the Peninsular Chapter of Alpha Delta Phi was instituted on the afternoon of Commencement Day, August 5, 1846, when eight members of the classes from '45 to '48 were initiated by Henry A. Swift, Western Reserve '42, and by the Rev. Robert R. Kellogg, N. Y. U. '35. Attacked in its early years by the Faculty, the Chapter was reduced in 1849-5° to three men; but ultimately it tri- umphed, and since 1850 it has en- joyed uninterrupted prosperity. In- itiations have been made in every one of the fifty-seven classes matric- ulated at Ann Arbor.

The stone chapter house, 556 South State Street, was begun VIGNETTE OF A. D. PHI. by the society in 1883, and was fin- ished in the following year.
