In the third volume there is a section on the history of all the major schools in Washington, including the College of Puget Sound, as it was known at the time. Written by History Professor Walter Davis, it covers in great detail the difficult early years of Puget Sound University/University of Puget Sound/College of Puget Sound, as it moved no less than four times.
Here are the closing words of the essay:
And indeed, we have doubled and tripled in size and our good influences gone out in ever-widening circles. I'll leave it to Jones Hall to decide if our endowment has kept pace.
I've pasted together the page scans into one long document that you can find here. Note that what I've done is larger than a normal image and so won't print easily. So, I've also made a pdf out of the whole document that is paginated; you can find it here.
If you'd like to look at more of the historical publications on Washington state online, including books, pictures, newspapers and other resources, you can find them at the Secretary of State's website here.
