‘Doc’ Cuts The Cake— In the years to come, thousands of Baltimore City College Alumni will look back upon the glorious Centennial Celebration with exultant pride. Reminiscing will bring back the impressive assemblies, the huge birthday cake, the magnificent pageant, the exciting football game, the publish- ing of the book, “One Hundred Years of the Baltimore City College,” an illustrated history, by James Chancellor Leonhart, co-author and general editor, upon which the writer of this article has leaned heavily and about which there will be more later herein; the glorious banquet—all memorable events, never to be forgotten. The early history of the Baltimore City College is rather that of a “gypsy nomad”. In March, 1839, Mayor S. C. Leakin signed City Ordinance No. 39, which provided for the establishment of a male high school, “in which the higher branches of an English and classical education may be taught exclusively.” Seven months later, October 20, 1839, classes first convened at “The High School” in a rented building on Courtland Street, and thus was bestowed upon Baltimore the third such educational institution in the United States. This ee { 4 4 es ' Dr. Pxirre H. Epwarps first enrollment of 46 pupils, with Dr. Nathan C. Brooks as Principal and the only teacher, was destined to become what is now the Baltimore City College. The Courtland Street quarters soon proved in- adequate; therefore, in 1840 the school was moved to the second floor of a building at the northeast corner of South and Second (now Water) Streets. In 1841, it moved to the northeast corner of Han- over and Lombard Streets, but in 1842 circum- stances compelled it to return to the Courtland Street quarters. On March 11, 1844, the school was removed to the “Old Assembly Rooms and Theatre Tavern” at Holliday and Fayette Streets which had been purchased for $23,000. The Old Assembly Rooms were destroyed by fire on Octo- ber 6, 1873, and again the school, had to move— this time to rooms in Dr. Brook’s Female Acad- emy building on Courtland Street, near the sight of the original location. It remained there until 1875, when a new school building at Howard and Centre Streets was completed. Even this INS building was the permanent home of the Balti- A Former Student Reminisces— more City College boys only until 1890. The Epwarp Everrr Horton 14
