The second statement was read by
the candidate as follows:
“Our progress in degenracy ap

a nation we began by declaring that
‘all men are treated equal.* We now
practically read it, ‘AH men are

Hlutary and PaupliL,,
The Presbyterian College fa mak
ing » collection of books and papers*
hearing on South Carolina history
and people. We have some valuable
and rare volume* already, and hope
to acquire more. This fa frankly a
begging letter.
There are pdrhape in tka^homes and
hook shelves, in old trucks or dusty
comers or garrets, or maybe m well-
kept libraries, papers and books that
we should like and that the owners
might be willing to donate to the col
lege. They will be preserved in the
college library for future generations,
and for many people. Recently one
of the professors found some vatua-
•ble books in an old farm-house, oc
cupied by negroes, a part of an ex
cellent library that had been thrown
ab^ut for years by tenants. He has
also found in one or two bld-fashion-
ed secretaries, some good volumes.
It is a pity that certain books are
Mattered over this state that wa
should be delighted to get, and yet
the possessors hardly care for them,
or have forgotten their existence en
tirely. ——...
We wish the old. histories, Ramsay,
Dolcho, Simms, etc., or other sketches
of this state. Stories of'men in the
Revolution; histories of communities,
schools, and churches would be treas
ured, as well as sketches of coun
ties in the early days, and stories
about or by men and things in our
state. We should be glad to get com
plete or partial files of newspapers
and early periodicals, files of com
plete minytes of organizations,
churches, and such like, or phara-
phlets concerning any of these
things. We should be especially
pleased to acquire, or find, unusual,
rare or old iBooks and periodicals of
any sort.
We think we are doing a good ser
vice to others by securing this col
lection. Look through all your bookA
no matter how few or how dusty and
old and tom they ipey he, and send
us or write to ue About them. We
shall be grateful, and you will helu
us beyond any price.
