CANONSBURG AND THE COLLEGE.
An Aliment Before the Board of
Trustees of Washington and Jetferson
College, by Rev. terancis J. Collier.
PRESIDEBT AND GENTLIMEN :
The Legislature having passed a supple
ment to the charter authorizing a consoli
dation of all the departments of the ClA
lege at one place, - thercitizens of Canons
-burg desire 'the privilege of presenting
through me, a few facts for the considera
tion of the Board. We will endeavor to
make our statements in a calm and dis
passionate manner; and we trust, that in
view of the great Importance of ,the matter
under discussion, your minds will be en
tirely divested of prejudice, and that you
will hear us patiently, and if our reasons
sre gOod,allow yourselves to be convinced.
We believe that you are deyotedly at
tached to the Institution entrusted to your
care, and we trust that whateve; may be
your personal wishes in determining the
question of its future location, you will re
gard as paramount the interests of the Col.
lege, and refrain from doing anything that
might alienate its friends, impair its use
fulness, diminish its resources, or imper
il its existence. We have heard that the
citizens of other places are prepared to
make, generous offers of money in order
to secure the location of the College.. Pe
cuniary inducements will be offered by
us, but at the same time, gentlemen, we
do you the justice to suppose that a ques
tion of so much importance will be deci
ded an, its merits, and not according to
the amount of money which may at pres
ent be tendered you. If your decision
meets, with public approbation, it cannot
fail to call forth liberal contrib utions, but
if it is such as will cause disappointment
and dissatisfaction, the people will cer
tainly refuse to give. If our claims are as
good as we believe them to be, and if you
should remove the College without giving
them proper consideration, we feel sure
that what at, first would mortify us would
in the end mortify ou. Aa we proceed
to set forth the facts, we have confidence
that you, with a. lively, sense of your res
ponsibility, will give strict attention and
weigh the matter well. -
THE PIiOPERTY.
First of all we would have you look at
the College property at Canonsburg :
I.* The old College building contains
Prayer Hall, the Christian Association
room; the Observatory, two recitation
roo na, and rooms and work shop for the
Professor of Natural Science.
'1 2. The new College building contains
Providence Hall, capable of holding one
thousand people when crowded, Senior
Hall and Library, the Lyceum, the Col
lege,Library, the mathematical room, re
citation-room for the Professors of Natu
ral Science, room for philosophical and
', chemical apparatus , a Laboratory,and has
; a basement with five apartments once used
as a' refectory.
3. The President's house, a two-story
brick, containing nine rooms,-has a fine
yard, garden and lot, in all about three
acres.
4. The. Riddle house, two-story . brick
and stone. with ten rooms, garden orch
ard and pastures, in all about thre e acres.
5. The Brown mansion, two-story
brick, nine rooms, yard and garden, in
all about an acre.
6. .Fbrt Job, a four story brick with
twenty-four rooms,
equally divided, ma
king two dwellings for Professors, more
than tvr o acres of ground.
7, The Janitors house, a two story
frame, four rooms; lot quarter of an acre.
The entire property is valued by com
petent judges at $125,000. It may he said
that some of these buildings are out of
'style, and need to be altered and repaired;
*fie is true; bat we think that by the ex
penditure of a few thousand dollars, un
der the supervision of a skillful architect
the buildings could be so modernized and
improved as to present a tasteful appear
ance and answer completely the buds for
which they were erected. Here we have
accommodated six Professors and three
hundred students. Can the Board find
as goal accommodations elsewhere? Can
you protide better in a -new place, for less
than ti 125,000 ? Can you afford to aban
don property so valuable? Can you,
,with any show of justice, put into the
:market and sell that which was purchased,
or built -with money contributed largely
by the. inhabitants of this place for the
benefit of their own College ? And what
aszurance will be given to the citizens
of -another place, that they will not be
treated in future after the same
-fashion? Might it not happen that
the promise of more spacious and
elegant buildings, and the offer of
a munificent sum of money would prove a
temptation too strong to beresisted? We
will candidly say that we are not pre--
pared to admit that you have a right to
abandon valuable property entrusted to
you by the Board of Jefferson for the use
and maintenance of a College at Canons
burg. There was a clear understanding
between the parties at the time the union
was effected. And if the College proper,
with the the exception of the Freshman
class, had not been guaranteed to remain
at Canonsburg,. in perpetuam, you would
have no claim to-day upon • the College
property, because the union would never
have taken place. The principle involved
is the same we think ; as in the case of a
conveyauce of property by trustees to
School directors under "an. Act for the
regulation and continuance of a spite&
of education by Common Schools,"
passed April 7, 1849, wherein it is pro-
Vided: "and thence forward the directors
and their 'successors 'shall hold the said
property for the same term, and for the
mime' utter for which- it was originally
granted to said -trustees or other," (see
laws of Pennsylvania, Dunlop, p. 1029.)
TBZ ENDOWMENT.
,By" 'reference to' the Treasurer's
book(tnige 5,) you will see that at the
time the' union was formed, the Weil of
jelfilson'COlege amounted to ;67,070,

nein Asset. $56M3
In making out his final report, Mr.
Mulct then Treasurer 'of Jefferson Col
lege, informed the Board that in his
hand' Were sundry notes amounting to
fili,ooo which he considered in paredoubt=
Ail s and 'wishing to make a fair exhibit,
he 'did' not include them in his count-
Neither did he include as part of the en.
dbilitocint the "interest aLTrued or accruing
roft Mr. O'Hara's mortgage. Neither did
he estimate a premium upon said mort.'
Bade. After paying off all debts of Jetrer-
son, you have $56,778 21 left—every doi
far of tohtth is good and productive,
and the sum Itself is considerably more
than one-third of your present endow.
tnent. Now mark, gentlemen. this
money, which you hold sn trust was orig
inally given for the express purpose of
sustaining a College (not an Academy)
at Canonsburg (not at any other place.)
With this fact staring you in the face, can
you with good conscience divert the fund?
Will a bill, drawn up by yourselves, and
at your own request, passed by the Legis
lature,justify the deed? Such a transaction
May be legally right, but in our judgment
it is morally wrong. And we are safe in
saying that the Board of Jefferson would
never have consented to the union and
transferred their assets to you, if they bad
ever dreamed that you would seriously
entertain for a single moment, a proposi
tion to remove the College from Canons
burg. Who will deny' this statement?
The endowment of Jefferson was not a
Moveable quantity, but a fixed fund hay
ing a special application. It is well
known to you that this endowment . was
Made up of the legacies and donations
epecially intended for the use and support
of a College at Canonsburg. Under "an
Actiproviding for a Generally System of
Education," passed April 2d, 1831,
it is provided that "thernshall be andthat
there hereby is established a common
school fund," and the Com Missioners
thereof, or a majority, of them "shall re
ceive and manage such' moneys and other
things as shall pertain to said fond in the'
most advantageous manner, and shall re
ceive and hold for the use of said fund,
all such gifts, grants, and donations as
may be made to the same' by private in
dividuals or otherwise, and shall apply
the same to the purposes for which such
gifts, grants, and donations may be made."
(See laws of Pennsylvania, Dunlop.. p.
452.) "Courts are bound to carry - into
effect the intent of the. donor. Trust in
fhvor of a charity not to fail in certain
cases," (see Pardon's Digest, p. 1119.)
See also! "an Act to confer on certain as
sociations of the citizens of this Com
monweilth the powers and immunities of
corporation or bodies politic in law."
April 6, 1791. Dunlop, p. 1779.
THE SCHOLLEBHIP.
The Board of Jefferson issued more
than fifteen hundred scholarships, and
of these less than one third have been
redeemed. These certificates - are of the
nature of a special contract, and the mein
thing stipulated is that a certain amount of
tuition shall be given at Canonsburg,
where the certificates were signed and
sealed. , "The presumption of the law is
that a contract is intended to be performed
in the place or country in which it is made
if there be not an express agreement or
necessary implication that it is to be per
formed elsewhere." \ 6 Wh. 117, Binn's
Justice 234. But it may be said that the
holders of these certificates are indifferent
abotit the place, provided the proper
amount of tuition Is received.
This may be true of some, but we assure
you that a large majority are not indiffer
ent ae to the place. At the time the schol
arships of Jefferson were sold Ethe schol
arships of the Institutions were in the mar
ket and the purchaser was at liberty to
make a choice. If the buYer accepted the
one, and refused the other, he'probably
hada reason for so doing. Those - who
wished to have their sons educated at
Canonsburg bought the scholarships of
Jefferson. And, gentlemen, are you not
in duty bound to tulfil the contract? Will
the legislation which you have obtained
exonorate you from the moral obligation?
If a part of the contract is repudiated,
what assurance is there that the whole of
it will not be? If you have the right to
change the place where the tuition is to be
given, may you not with equal propriety,
make a reduction in the amount of tuition,
or in time refuse to give any on Scholar
ships? We have good reason to doubt
the constitutionality of any legislation
which would in the slightest degree impair
a contract. See Constitution of Pennsyl
vania, Art. 9, Sec. 17. "That no ex poet
facto law nor any laW impairing contracts
shall be made." (See also Const. U. S.,
Sec. X. I.) And we would like to ask
whether von are ready to refund the
money given for scholarships, adding in
terest to the principal from the date of the
certificate in case you remove the College
from Canonsburg? Justice would seem
to require this at your hands. .
TU APPLIANCES
_ - -
We would next call :tour attention to
the libraries and apparatus at Canons
burg. By the last catalogue you will see
that the number of volumes in the Philo
Library is 3800; •Franklin, 8700; Chris
tian Association, 1040, with 40 periodi
cals; Lyceum, 89, and College Library
about 10,000. In all over 18,000 volumes.
We hair.; a fine telescope purchased by
citizens and students at a cost of $2,000 in
cheap times. • The_ philosophical and
chemical apparatus is extensive and val
table, and much of it is the private prop
erty of the Professor of Natural Science
whose consent must be had • before it can
be removed. In the • museum there is a
,large collection of minerals, fossils. shells,:
and other curiosities, interesting and use.
ful to students. It may be questionable
whether the Board has a right to orde r,
the removal of all these things; and if
there is no such right, would it be wise
throw away appliances so good and cost
ly ? Is the College so rich that it can of--•
ford the sacrifice ?
THE PEOPPARITY OP JECPPRIOSON.
The prosperity of Jefferson College in
spite of the greatest difficulties and dia.
ouuragements Is a pleasant and indisputa
ble fact of history. And who is so strong
ly prejudiced that he will not, admit that
this success was in a great measure due
to the place where the College was loca
ted and to the people by whom it 'was
surrounded? Whet if the town is small
and unattractive la appearance ? Is
Princeton much larger, where the Col
lege of New Jersey has so long flourished?
What if the people are not possessed of a
great amount of wealth; have they not
always been liberal towards the College ?
Let the grounds and buildings testify. In
the light of history is it not apparent that
it requires something besides money and
mortar to make a college ?
TUE TORN. •
Whatever maybe said against Canons
burg, it must bencknowledged that it is a
good place for a olive. Where will you
find a more peaceable, temperate, intelli
gent, luad moral community Y There is
not a grog shop, billiard room, theatre,
gambling den, or house of bad repute in
the whole town. If young men become
intoxicated, they must obtain their liquor
elsewhere. Students find easy access to
the homer of our best citizens. Rooms
are rented and , boarders kept, by the
most refined and estimable , : ladies, some
of whom are the destitute widows of Al
umni and clergymen: The students are
Wilted fortunate in haying such imolai
-dings, and being exposed to so few temp.'
tations. Gentlemen of the _Board are

TUB OOLLEGY AND THE CHURCH.
For many years the citizens and the
students have been accustomed to wor
ship together in the College Chapel. This
arrangement, being mutually satisfactory,
has been attended with the, happiest re
sults: The people, unable to erect a
building of their own, or to raise means
sufficient to support a minister, have
been provided with a place of worship,
and have enjoyed the preaching of the
gospel: In consideration of these advan
tages they have contributed annually the
sum of four hundred and fifty dollars
with which the salary of the Ministerial
Professor has been supplemented and the
contingent expenses of the College re
duced. Knowing what precious interests
they have at stake, they await your deci
sion with the greatest anxiety. The stu.
dents feel at home in the College Church,
and they all attend the public services
with regularity and cheerfulness.l Gen,
tlemen, it is for you to determine whether
this hallowed relation shall be disturbed;
it is for you to say whether - the - College
Church shall jive or die.
CANONSHORG AND WASHINGTON.
If a comparison is to be made between
Canonsbrrrgh and Washington we' sug
gest certain inquiries, and we do it in no
unkind or improper spirit. We asleonly
for truth and justice, and we will be' Sat
isfied with nothing less. Let the Board
inquire:
• 1. Whether Washington College at
Washington was more prosperous than
Jefferson College at Canonsburg.
2. Whether the College buadings , at
Washington are larger, better and more
numerous than those at Canonsburg, and
the property, as a whole more valuable.
3, Whether the citizens of Washing
ton, in general, have heretofore mani
fested a deeper interest in the College,
and donated more more money than the
citizens of Canonsburg..
4. Whether the temptations to which
young men are exposed are less at Wash
ington than at Canonsburg.
5. Whether students can live more
economically at Washington than at Can
onsburg.
G. Whether Washington is more ac
cessible than Canonsburg.
7. Whether the educational appli
ances, such as libraries, apparatus, &c., are
better at Washington than at Canonsburg.
8. Whether people abroad will contrib
ute more freely to the College at Washing
ton than at Canonsburg.
9. Whether the endowment fund of
Jefferson College, which amounted to
$56,778,21, after all debt, were paid, did
not largely exceed that of Washington
College, and whether on this account the
claim of Canonsbure to the location of the
united Institution is not stronger than the
claim of Washington.
10. Whether the endowment fund of
Washington College was, in fact, as large
as it was supposed to be at the time of the
union. (See Treasurer's Book, page 8.)

The above sum Includes premium oat in

is not now and never was avaliabie or
productive. This sum includes, also.
sundry notes having a nominal value of
$6,584,12, (page 49) but a real value of
only S3,BH. According to the estimate
of Mr. Wilson, late. Treasurer, (page 40,)
the interest on many not having been
paid for years. See copy of Mr. Wilson's
receipt on transferring the assets of the
College to Mr. Baird. (page 48 .) Was
not Mr. Black, Treasurer of Jefferson,
deserving otpraise for leaving out of his
estimate of assets, sundry notes nominallg
wortirs2,ooo, but really worth nothing ?
It, the Synod of Ohio has a just claim to
$7,000 of your funds, must not this sum
be subtracted from the endowment fund
of Washington College ?
11. Inquire whether Canonsburg and
Washington are equally and flatly repre
sented in the Board. What proportion
of your number are from jthe one town
and what from the other ? Does not an
examination of your roil show that
nearly one fourth of your number are lo
cal Trustees of Washington, who consti
tute almost a majority at some of your
meetings t And was the representation
of Canonsburg before' the' death of Mr.
McDaniel more- than one sixth of the
whole number of Trustees, and is it more
than one eighth now
12. Whether your appropriations for
salaries, repairs, ttc., at Washington, for
the past year at least, have not been
grezter than onehalf your income, while
at Canonsburg they have been teas than
onehalf, contrary to Sec. 13 of your
charter. And whether the amount spent
In repairing buildings at Canonsburg is
equal to the aggregate yearly allowance
for house sent at Washington.
13. Whether an Academy which must
depend for support upon local patronage,
could not be better sustained at Washing
ton than at Canonsburg; and whether the
students of the preparatory department
have not been, for the most part, real
debts of Washington. 'And finally in
quire.
14. Whether a supplement or amend
ment to the charter can be constitutional,.
the intent of which is essentially different
from the intent of the charter itself, and
by which the most important provisions
of the charter may be made of no effect.
The charter as you know provides that
the College proper With the exception of
the Freshman class shalt be at Canonsburg.

our case; it is for you to decide. If we,
