He urged graduates, especially the men and women, to uphold faith, virtue, and service, warning that knowledge alone without conscience harms civilization. Separately, Arthur Colebank of Knottsville was freed by a coroner's jury in a self defense shooting of George Randolph in Baltimore, with testimony from witnesses and details of the incident and investigation.
