Dr. Charles William Dabney (1855-1945) was an 1877 graduate of the University of Virginia. From 1887 to 1904 he was President of the University of Tennessee, and from 1904 to 1920 President of the University of Cincinnati. In 1893 he was named to be Assistant Secretary of Agriculture by U.S. President Grover Cleveland. Here's a painting of him in 1919 from the Tennessee Portrait Project. A collection of his papers can be found at the University of Tennessee Special Collections Library in Knoxville.
