Special Committee Held High
ly Important M citing Last
Tuesday Night.
GIFT OF $4,000 MADE.
Work of Rebuilding On Large
Scale to Be Commenced
Early in Spring.

All probability of the city losing
South Kentucky College has been
eft av : AMI everything points to
the erection Of a much more COM
modious and modern building than
the old one, which was partially
burned last fall.
The old debt of the institution,
which has hung like an incubus over
the officers and friends of the college
is to be lifted by a donation from
Mr., James R. Rash, Of Darlington.
Mr.. Rash has given $4,000 for this
purpose, on condition that the main
building is to bear the name of IN.
F. Rash Memorial Hall, in memory
of the deceased son Of the donor.
Rumor says that it is highly prob
able that another large donation
may soon be made. If it is it will
be sufficient to erect a ladies' dormi-
tory sufficient to accommodate all
lady boarders who may hereafter
come here to attend>the college.
The gentlemen composing the
special committee to raise funds for
rebuilding the college have been
tireless in their efforts, though at
times clouds Of d scouragement have
hung about them and the way
seemed dark. But nothing seems
to have deferred them from accom-
pishing the task laid upon them,
and they are now where they see
their way out of all difficulties so
encouraged are they that the an
nouncement has gone forth that as
soon as favorable weather sets in
and plans have been prepared tie
erection Of the building proper will
begin.
But this announcement should not
prevent any one contemplating aid
from promptly replying to the call
Of the committee. A great deal of
money will be needed after the build
ing is completed for furniture and
proper equipment. Now that re-
building is an assured fact, so much
more the reason for those who are
able to step forward and l9nd the
helping hand.
The special committee have been
UNNECESSARILY assisted in their work
by Rev. J. W. Hardy, the man who
was called INTO service when the first
building was destroyed, and whose
services were deemed indispensable,
when the second misfortune befell
the institution. All praise to the
whole bunch of them, and may their
every anticipation be fully realized
So say the people.

The many friends of Colonel Hgdon in
