1 .-..Hiiieut Committee Appointed
ecordiue to call, a goodly
-jinber of the the citizens of Con
cord met in the Court House
Friday "night May the 19th.
0o motion Mayor Goe. W
jleans as called to preside and
j j5 Sberrill and J fD Barrier
Tere made secretaries of the
meeting. f- .'.
The chairman asfeed Eev. C B
jliller to explain the object of the
meeting which was in substance
that North Carolina College did
not enjoy that degree of pros
perity at Mt. Pleasant that it was
desiraWe that it should and that
8t a meeting of the board of
directors of the institution, said
board had asked of Synod to
take some decided action for the
well being of the College and that
the North Carolina Synod had by
a jote of 35 to 4 declared it to be
the sense of the Synod that the
. college should be remoyed to
some other point. In pursuance
of this idea the Synod had ap
pointed a colaamittee to invite pro
positions for the location of the
college. He stated that thiscommit
tee was instructed to make cer
tain propositions and guarantees
which would be set forth after the
meeting of this committee in his
study on the 27th. This com
mittee, said he, will report at
next regular meeting of Synod or
at a called meeting for this special
purpose and that if any proposi
tions are made the Synod; will
consider these propositions and
occept that , which the Synod
deems most adyantageous, pro
vided that the offers should be
sufficient inducements. The meet
ing tonight, said the speaker, is
to ascertain whether Concord de
sires the College located here.
The chairman asked for an ex
pression of views from a number
of gentlemen.
Mr. J M Odell thought the town
would do well to secure the Col
lege and should resolve to secure
it and do so ' by offering such
inducements as would affect its
location here.
Dr. R S Young endorsed Mr.
Odell's views and thoueht that
Concord would miss a great op
portunity if she did not act so as
to secure that institution. He
felt that the College was within
the grasp of Concord and that we
should reach out and &et it.
Mr. D B Coltrane felt that
whenever the North Carolina
Synod really offered the location
of the College to us we should by
all means get it. By no means
fetthe College pass out of Ca
barrus. . ; ' -
Mr. P B Fetzer thought there
as no question but that Concord
culd get the College and that
she needed it to put forward the
tQe intellectual feature of her
inwardness parallel with her
business progress. . - .
Dr. H C Herring thought it not
a question whether the means for
curing the College could be
Iaised but how it should be

own ability but hi wished a pop.
ular interest 1 taken and' ; some
means adopted like thai of the
building j andj loan system by
which men of temtlll means could
be valuable contributors. -Chairman
Means commended
the idea.
Mr. Wm. WeddingtoQ said he
was
and
anxious to (get the College
that
Concord's temperance
record marked her as a suitable
place to locate a College.
Capt. Edward Bill moved that
a committe oij two from each of
the four wards of the town be
authorized tc solicit subscriptions
for the; purpose and to inquire
into the f easibiiitjy of a building
and loan style for! the contributors.
Pending discussion of Capt
Hill's motion! Mil D f!ftluno
asked of Rev. Miller whether the
board of North Carolina College
had taken
action necessarv for
removal,
him no
Rev. Miller answered
but I that the boarr!
the
c eiture of the
itj had appealed
for decisive ac-
Synod, that
to Synod
tion and tha
t he could assure Mr.
Coltrane
that the board would
acquiesce in any action the
Synod would take m the matter.
Mr. Coltrane asked what about
any endorsement that the College
has. ' Rev. Miller replied that
fifteen thou and dollars had been
secured by individual bonds that
specified thatlp they, were -for
nvrm carounrvonege, inai some
$4,800 j hald : been paid in
and let out uecr red by real estate
mortgages.
Mr. MH H Caldweil thought
it not well to split too many hairs
in the minutia,
it was desirable to
haye the Col
ege, its benefits
would be of untold value to us
and that if we wanted the College
our best sfforts should be put
forth. Salisbury, said the
speaker, is not questioninu: but
acting and boasts that she will
have tne College. "We want the
College J andj we enjoy great ad
vantages by waich to get it.
