Joseph Ratlitf reported that the
books donated by Prof Lee Ault last
| fall had been received and placed in
the secretary 5 library.
Two papers were prepared for the
Saturday s meeting, but the authors
of them not being able to be present
they were read by the president and
secretary. "a Sketch of Green
mount College" was written by Earl
B. Barnes. He said, in his preface,
that be did not know until six
months ago that there had been such
an institution as Greenmount. He
further said that it was only through
the patient kindness of several
/ ersons whom be named, among
them Prof. s Wilson and Stevens,
who were connected with the col
lege, that he was enabled to write
the sketch OF Greenmount college.
The college stood one and a half
miles south of Richmond
and IS now occupied
by the Werule Home, an excellent
institution controlled by the German
Lutheran church of Richmond.
Greenmount college was a co-educa-
tional, mons n-sectarian institution es-
tablished in 1852 by John Haines,
merchant of Richmond. 1t was a
very prosperous and successful school
until the spring of 1886 when a
small scandal connected with the
name Of John Haines was set afioat
and major part of the pupils were
Withdrawn and Haines severed his
connection with the school. 1t was
continued under other management |
with varying success until 1888 when !
1t became water cure, until pur
by the joint synod of the Ger
man Lutheran church for an orphans |
home. This institution has done ex-
celient work in caring for homeless |
bows and girls and has been a credit |
to the city since its establishment. |
The other paper by Otis Menden-
hall Elliott of Earlham was 'Coun
ty seat history of Wayne County, |
Ind. The site for the first county |
seat was three miles west and mile I
south OF Richmond in township 13, /
range 3, and was called Salisbury, (
why, is not stated. One house still /
