Founder of Delta Chi Fraternity, October 13, 1890 at Cornell University
Albert Sullard Barnes was born on 13 January 1869 in Franklin, New York. While a student at Cornell, he and others founded a law organization which became Delta Chi Fraternity.
After graduating with the LL.B. degree in 1891, Barnes joined a series of successful law firms in Binghamton, New York. He practiced law in that city until 1931 when he retired to Franklin.
Barnes was one of only a few of the founders who continued to work closely with the fraternity. He was a frequent guest of the Cornell chapter speaking at banquets and other functions. One of his best known quotations was: “Delta Chi is not a weekend or once-a-year affair but a lifelong opportunity and privilege.”
In politics he was a Republican. In 1914, he was the Progressive Party candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives for the 34th Congressional District of New York. Other organizations which Barnes joined include the Freemasons, the Shriners, the Scottish Rite, and the Redmen. He served on several corporate boards of directors. His hobbies included trout fishing and all outdoor activities. He was a lifelong member of the Franklin fisherman’s club. A member of the Congregationalist church, he was active in the local church as well as the state convention.
Barnes died 17 July 1935 in Franklin, New York, at age 66 in the same house where he had been born. He is buried in his wife’s, Katharine Heermans’ family plot.
