The William Dwight Whitney Desk

The William Dwight Whitney Desk

This desk was the property of Professor Whitney (1827-1894) at Yale College. It was given by his daughter and sisters to Nicholas Moseley who presented it to Professor George S. Lane of University of North Carolina in 1962, who in turn left it to the Linguistic Society upon his death. Since then it has been passed down to each editor of Language for display in the Language offiice The tradition is that the desk was made to Professor Whitney's specifications and that it was at this desk that he wrote his famous Sanskrit Grammar (1879).
