The old students of the college, who are scattered all over the country, will remember "Old Sol,'' the Latin teacher. It used to be said, that towards the latter part of his life, he was so fa miliar with the Latin books, such as Caesar, Virgil, Cicero, that he could conduct the lesson without looking at the book. So, today the old Gannaway house stands a silent reminder of the days when old Trinity flourished in Ran dolph, with only fcur professors, and one president, "One, but a lion." We understand new people are go ing to move into the old house, ami that it is to be lighted up by electric ity, and other up-to-date contrivances; while cement walks will cover tne footsteps of those cf the long ago.
