Nate Saint’s application for admission to Wheaton College with handwritten responses. Paper, 6” x 9”, 2 pages on single sheet. September 30, 1946. On his application for Wheaton College, Saint lists his father’s occupation as “artist.” In fact, Lawrence Saint designed the windows in the National Cathedral in Washington, DC. Saint lists his own occupation as “aircraft mechanic.” Asked about his attitude toward Jesus, he replies, “The attitude that would be expected from a hell-deserving sinner, pardoned, forgiven, justified by a wonderful savior. I lack comprehension of such love!” From College Archives & Special Collections (Buswell Library), RG 11.02 Box 42, Folder 27. |
