Synopsis

Excerpt from Christianity and the American Commonwealth: Or the Influence of Christianity in Making This Nation On June 4, 1897, the Board of Trustees of Emory College, Oxford, Ga., received the following communication from Rev. W. F. Quillian: To the Board of Trustees of Emory College. Desiring to promote the cause of Christian education and to advance the theological literature of Methodism, and believing that I can most effectively do this by laying the foundation of a lectureship at the college of my Church, located at Oxford, Ga., I give to Emory College fifty shares of $10 each, of the capital stock of the "Country Bank Stock Security Company" (estimated to be worth $550, the amount I paid for same), to be held or sold and reinvested by the Board of Trustees, for the purpose of founding a lectureship on the following conditions and plan: 1. This sum, together with any other amounts which may be given by myself or others for this purpose, shall be safely invested, and the interest added to the principal until the sum of $3,000 shall have been reached. But one course of the lectures may be provided for at an earlier date by special donation, provided no part of the principal of this fund shall be thus used. 2. Thereafter the interest, together with any appropriations made to this fund from other sources, shall be used for the maintenance of a lectureship in Emory College.
