T he Cedarville College was chartered \vith full power by the State of Ohio in Ja11uary, 1887. On Wednesday, September 19, 18941 the College opened for instruction in tl1e mansion formerly owned by Rev. Hugh McTYiillan, D.D., where over a third of a century ago he conducted an academy, from which were graduated many noted per sonages. The accommodations not being sufficient for the needs of the growing institution, in the second year the present building was erected and opened on the site pur chased several years before. Both the building and the campus are the gifts of generous friends. Though young, the College has already exerted a lasting and wide-felt influence. Its students and graduates take high rank in seminaries, universities, and other advanced schools of train ing. Many of them are worthily filling positions of po\ver and influence in America and foreign lands. The College includes five departments: the Collegiate, the Preparatory, the Musical, the Oratorical, and the Teachers'. In these are students from various parts of the United States preparing for all professions and pursuits of life. -8- • CEDARVILLE COLLEGE. ENDOWMENT AND INCOME. GIB:SON FUND. The Cedarville College had its practical origin through the liberality of. vVilliam Gibson, Esq., of Cincinnati, who bequeathed $25,000 for the endowment fund of a college to be erected at Cedarville, Ohio, in memory of his father, Peter Gibson, for many years a prominent member and ruling elder of the First Reformed Presbyterian congrega tion of Cincinnati. • COOP·ER FUND. ' By the will of the late Robert M. Cooper, a ruling elder in the Cedarville Reformed Presbyterian congregation, the College, in the Fall of 1903, came into possession of two thirds of his farm, valued at $6,ooo. HARPER FUND. Mr. G. W. }larper and wife, of Cedarville,· generously gave $5,000 for the founding and maintenance of a chair in Sociology and Economics, provided the friends of the College raise an additional $s,ooo. This fttnd was raised, and instruction began in September, 1907. JAMES LY.ONS FUND. The College is gratefttlly indebted to Mr. John R. Lyons, of Marissa, Illinois, who gave $500 to be funded as a memorial to his son, James Lyons, who gave bis life as a sacrifice to his country during the Civil War. -9- CEDARVILLE COLLEGE.
