OUACHITA BAPTIST UNIVERSITY LEGACIES IN BRICK AND MORTAR: THE LIFE AND WORKS OF CHARLES THOMPSON AN HONORS THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE CARL GOODSON HONORS COUNCIL IN CANDIDACY FOR THE COMPLETIONS OF THE CARL GOODSON HONORS PROGRAM BY TILLY CARTER ARKADELPHIA, ARKANSAS APRIL 2002 "Therefore, when we build, let us think that we build forever. Let it not be for the present delight, nor for present use alone; let it be such work as our descendants will thank us for, and let us think, as we lay stone on stone, that a time will come when those stones will be held sacred because our hands have touched them, and that men will say as they look upon the labor and wrought substance of them, 'See! this our fathers did for us."' -John Ruskin 1 Many masterpieces go unnoticed by the public.
