The Funds Raised for Completing the Sam
Jones Female College.
A meeting was held at the Methodist
church last Thursday evening to con
sider the question of hurrying on the
completion of our splendid female col
lege building.
J. H. Wikle presided, with G. 11. Au
brey at the secretary’s desk.
Rev. Sam .lones stated the object of
the meeting. He said the sum of
$3,500 was still needed to complete the
building, and he proposed to raise it at
once or drop the whole thing. He was
willing to add SSOO to his former sub
scription, or it those present would raise
2,500 lie would guarantee to raise
SI,OOO on the streets next morning, aud
then furnish the building complete when
finished. Most of those present had al
ready subscribed liberally, but they will
ingly gave more, and after a good deal
of fun the $2,500 was raised, and there
was general rejoicing all over the house.
The following morning Ram .Tones suc
ceeded in raising the other SI,OOO, aud
there is now nothing in the way of going
ahead with the work.
It was brought out that the work had
not been suspended for lack of money, as
the treasurer had three or four hundred
dollars in hand, but the delay was on ac
count of material not arriving prompt
ly. The contractors agreed to get to
work at once and push the building to
completion.
When Sam Jones is backed by such
public-spirited men as Baker & Hall,
Col. Tom Milner, and a host of others
we might name, it is an easy matter to
raise money for a worthy public enter
prise.
We hope the committee will now see to
it that the work is completed at the
earliest day possible. The building should
be ready and a faculty organized for the
spring term.
This will be one of the handsomest and
best adapted college buildings in Geor
gia, and we do not believe there is a bet
ter location for such an institution than
Cartersville.
The college will be worth as much to
our city as the iron furnace or rolling
iniil.
