  <mods:abstract>This is a form of recommendation that was completed on September 20, 1901 to support the application of Robert P. Hamlin, a Springfield College (then known as International YMCA Training School) alumnus, to enter the school. The author of this form is unknown and his name cannot be read with clarity. Originally from Springfield, Massachusetts, Mr. Hamlin began working in YMCA facilities around 1890. He served at the Province, Rhode Island YMCA facility, first as librarian, from 1893 to 95, and then as Assistant Secretary, from 1896 to 1905. He graduated from Springfield College in 1904. After graduation Hamlin served as the Secretary of the Colored Men's Departments in the Brooklyn, New York facility from 1906 to 1910. He then served in the capacity of Secretary of the International Commission in Washington, D.C. from 1911 to 1912, then in Louisville, Kentucky from 1913 to 1914, before he returned to Washington, D.C. in the same capacity from 1915 to 1919. Then, from 1920 to 1927 he served as the State Secretary of the national Council for New York. In 1928, though still affiliated with the YMCA in New York, he spent this year in transition before transferring to the Newark, New Jersey facility to serve as the Secretary of the State Commission from 1929 until his retirement on July 25, 1934. Hamlin died April 29, 1944.</mods:abstract>
