 Jarvis, named for Bishop Abraham Jarvis, was one of three College halls built on the original campus; the others were [[seabury_hall_old_campus|Seabury Hall]] (1825) and [[brownell_hall|Brownell Hall]] (1845), also named after the first Episcopal Bishops of Connecticut.
-According to a student writing for the //[[tablet|Tablet]]//, "J.H." was carved into the wall by Jarvis's North front door, "and almost every one has supposed it stood for Jarvis Hall." However, the initials were carved in 1864 by Henry Hovey, Class of 1866, in memory of himself and Jennings, who was a member of the class of 1861 and ordained in 1864. The carvings accompanied [[class_ivy|ivy]] that Hovey planted on Jarvis Hall.

 Jarvis Hall was emptied and demolished in the summer of 1878 after the State of Connecticut purchased the campus to become the site of the new State Capitol. When Trinity moved to its current [[summit_campus|Summit Campus]], one of the first [[long_walk|Long Walk]] buildings was named [[jarvis_hall|Jarvis Hall.]]
