Will Rebuild Hoffman Hall
At University of the South
Especial Correspondence

New York, July Ito replace
Hoffman Hall burned last year, will
be one of the purposes OF the nation
wide campaign of the Episcopal
Church so far as the University OF the
South is concerned That dormitory,
which housed some sixty students, was
one of twenty buildings of the unlver-
sity built out Of Sewanee sandstone.
When fire destroyed the building, Sc
vance had no means to replace it,
but now that the Nationwide Cam
paign is in progress. to enlarge the
work OF the church, it will be possible
to build larger and better dormi-
tory on the old site.
Historically the beginnings of the
University OF the South are not with
out interest. The idea of establish
ing a great Church University for the
South came to Bishop Polk Of Lou
isiana in 1856. He considered the
matter with a breadth of vision that
was striking for he planned not to
found his college for one diocese, as
had usually been done, but to go even
outside the state and to weld at least
ten states to the purpose. These he
chose south of Virginia and Kentucky
and east of New Mexico and thus he
combined the dioceses contained in
the states Of Louisiana, Tennessee,
North and South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkan-
sas and Texas.
At that time the South was in an
exultant mood politically and had no
fears for the future. Bishop Polk's
idea was warmly supported by the en-
tire South and half a million dollars
for the college we're subscribed and
liberally and rapidly.
The Cumberland Table Land In
Franklin county, Tennessee, was chos-
en as the site Of the college and the
work Of construction began. Then
came the Civil War Bishop Polk be-
came a general of the Confederacy
and fought against Grant in his first
battle at Belmont. In the end the
entire endowment was swept away
and such buildings as had been erect
ed were destroyed by the Federal
army. The corner stone even was car
ried away piece by piece for relics.
Although chartered in 1858 1t was
not until ten years later that the col
lege began it's real life. In that year
there were IA students. The next year,
however, the students numbered 107
and seven years later they numbered
243. Since then Sewanee has been a
vital factor in the educational life OF
the South.

railway leading UP to it was the steep

Mr.. Henry suggested that when the
sheriffs return to their counties they
call a meeting of their deputies, the
magistrates, constables, etc, and take
the matter of law enforcement in
hand and arouse public opinion, along
which line each sheriff should be a
leader in his own county.
