Fisk university, accompanied by his brother
Rev. q. b. Wilcox, of Connecticut, a trustee
of Fisk university; Secretary G. ID. Pike, OF
the American missionary association; and
Rev. Mr.. Davis, of Boston They have
thoroughly and critically studied the facts
about the university, educationaliy and
financially, and were greatly pleased
with its condition and especially with
its prospects. They have visited most of
the other institutions OF learning in the city,
and were deeply impressed with the impor-
lance Of Nashville rs an educational center.
1t is a source of great satisfaction to the Of
fcers and faculty that this large contribution
has been given to the university after this
personal and careful consideration of its
work and wants. We are also glad to learn
that they were especially pleased and favor
ably impressed by the fact that they found
the sentiments of the white people Of Nash
vile so generally and decidedly in favor of
the university and its work"
