At an adjourned meeting of thessubscribcr'
of The Canton Male .4caden,y, the following
Report vas submitted, viz; IN
The undersigned, COMMITTEES, appointed by
the subscribers fora Male Academy, in or neal
thetown Of Canton, with instructions to make
enquiry as to suitable location far il, and to
report plan, and estimate the cost of suita-
Bile building, &c, submit the following:
They find great diversity Of opinion among
the subscribers and citizens as to the location
OF the Academy. Many are of opinion that it
should be some distance from the limits of the
town, while Others favor location within, or
adjoining it. Your committee also differ in
opinion on this subject; they, however, all
concur in this, that if il is placed at any dis.
lance from the town, the most eligible situation
(all things consdered) is to be found upon
tract Of II acres Of land belonging to Mr.. Jno.
7. Cameron. This situa,ioris elevated and
beautiful. Mr.. Cameron does moi wish to d.
vide this tract, but proposes tossell the whole
for $500. Your committee are oil opinion that
this price is reasonable, and that, if this point
should be selected, the whole should be pur-
chased. They believe the institution will
grow and flourish, and that it ought to be COM
menced on scale Commensurate with this de-
srable result.
Your committee believe that there is no hope
OF entire unanimity as to the location; they
think it probable, however, that majority Of
the patrons of the Institution are in favor or
the above point; and if SO, that the minority
should yield.
They recommend brick building on the
following model: IS feet long, and 25 feet wide
inside, with partition and folding doors; such
q building will cost about ----.s It will be
seen that this sum, together with the price Of
the land exceeds the present sum subscribed
----; but your committee believe that this
balance in short time will be subscribed; es-
pecially it unanimity should prevail in the
meeting, and the plan and location, OF any
other plan and location, should be permanent
y adopted by resolution.
Your committee therefore Recommend the
settlement of these preiminaries immediately;
and that committee be raised to solicit fur
her subscriptions,wl instructions to report
rom time to time, Il this meeting.
In the event that the above location is fixedl |
lpon, then they recommend that the land be
purchased and paid for, by the as |
ignment of part of the subscription list.
