dent body of forty-seven, and a
faculty of seven, with a yearly ap-
preparation OF ten thousand dol
lars to maintain and support It..
The following year the legislature
appropriated funds TO erect three
brick buildings and equip them.
This was done, and the same year
these buildings accommodated
three hundred and seventy-eight
students. With the gaining of such
friends as the late Governor Hall.
