Of suitable "quarters." Drennon Springs has been
secured the future and permanent location of the
school, To the great body of our patronage, com
ing as it does from the South and West, no point
could be more desirable. Situated within one mile
of the Kentucky river, midway between Frankfort
and Louisville il is easy of access in all directions

The buildings and improvements arcvery extern
sive, affording ample room and accommodations
for three hundred cadets.
Its retired and heathful position eminently
adaptsit for the purposes Of Military School. Be-
ing eight miies from any town, it is free alike from
the vices and extravagancies usually incident to
college life.
