The school continued eleven years with success, and he was offered a location at Wilson. In the summer of 1897, under the supervision of Joseph Kinsey, the Wilson Educational Association erected a large building; and Kinsey Seminary opened in Wilson September. 1897. But the Seminary continued only four sessions because of the declining health of President Kinsey. The Disciples began to consider the proposition of purchasing this property for the maintenance of their college. Throughout the summer and early fall of 1901 this was written and preached; and when the State Convention met at Kinston. October, 1901, plans were arranged for acquiring the Wilson prop- erty. Within a few weeks afterward means for financing the enterprise were arranged and the deed for the property was made to the “North Carolina Mis- sionary Convention.” The Board of Trustees choose for the name of the school “Atlantic Christian College.” In May, 1 902, it was incorporated with J. J. Harper of Smithfield as first chancellor. Page Fifteen 0 Wt © :3k ij i 3k ■m if 3k 3k 3k 'Qtk 3k QX 3k (5y 3k (frj} w i- • eg? ), j w if §• i? ';T ii sL 0? §7T
