Cross PLAINS, Tenn, Oct. ), 1S74.-
On behalf of the people of this eommuni
ty, we desire to ask you to publish the fol-
lowing statement: On the night Of the
27th of May, at l o'clock, one hundred and
forty-Seven students and the professors of
NeOphogen College, at this place, were
turned ont by the burning of the College.
BarefoOted and in their night clothing,
over forty yOang ladies were hurried
from the burning building, losing every
thing. The remainder, young gentleman
were also turned out houseless and home
less. In our great calamity we knew not
what TO do. While the flames were still
raging. every citizen Of the town came for
ward TO our relief. Every lady and gentle
man was taken 20 a hospitable home, and
cared for as a member of the family. On
the following morning every merchant in
the town except one, opened his doors and
told each student TO furnish himself with
what he needed. The Young ladies were
supplied with what they required. All
that a noble, liberal-hearted, generous
people could do was done for the inmates
of Neophogen College.
When the immediate necessities OF all
had been met, the people supplied us with
means 10 reach our several homes. DR..
| Taylor nobly furnished Oser 800. After
! doing all this the citizens Of this cOmmuni-
| ", a few DAYS after the IRE, convened in an
enthusiastic assembly and proposed to re
rebuild Che college. President j. N. Wal
ton heartily aPPrOUed OF the proposition
\ and tcrOte his terms. In a few days Oy Ell
$4,000 was raised, and the work on the
new college commenced. Every exertion
was made by the wOrkmen and building
committee for the early completion Of the
new college, and every one was rejoicing
at the thought of happy reunion Of stu
| dents from thirteen different States. But
alas after all the kindness, unparalleled
| generosity and noble sacrifice on the part
Of the people of this enterprising village,
| President John NJ. Walton quietly went e
Gallatin and made an arrangement for the
removal Of his school to that place. Sucf
a course on his part naturally excites the
indignation of the citizens of
Cross PLAINS.
