PAST l 91 James A. Harding David Lipscomb Page 2 Because two men shared a dream . . . Because those two men dedicated themselves to the fulfillment of that dream . . . Because seventy-five years ago nine students believed in that dream enough to enroll in the Nash- ville Bible School . . . Because men and women, hundreds of them, still believing in that dream have come and gone . . . Because this school stands as a monument to those two men and our future stands as a testi- mony to their wisdom . . . David Lipscomb High School exists. Gratefully we dedicate this 1966 MIZPAH to David Lipscomb and james A. Harding for anticipating our needs and fulfilling our hopes. One of the early homes of the first Nashville Bible School was on Fillmore Street.

1916 The Nashville Bible School, now David Lipscomb, first opened its doors in October, 1891 with nine students enrolled. james A. Harding was superintendent and David and William Lipscomb composed the first faculty. In 1893 buildings were erected on prop- erty purchased on Spruce Street and the school continued in this location for ten years. In 1901 David Lipscomb deeded his farm on Granny White Pike as a permanent cam- pus, and the school moved to its new loca- tion in 1903. William Anderson followed Harding as president, but died after a brief time. E. A. Elam next served and was re- placed by H. Leo Boles in 1913.
