mm w If zs So© LOCATION AND HISTORY ILLIGAN COLLEGE is located in Carter County, in that part of Ten- nessee which was once the Watauga Settlement. It is that section of the former state of Franklin— a commonwealth whose brief but ro- mantic existance was terminated in a battle fought only a short distance from the site now occupied by the college grounds. Two miles to the north, at Sycamore Shoals, the American Volunteers who fought the decisive battle of King ' s Mountain started on the famous march which in the opinion of competent histori- ans, was the turning point in the American Revolution. After Sycamore Shoals and the days of King ' s Mountain, came Daniel Boone and Davy Crocket. Boone transgressed only a few miles west of the College: and at Boone ' s Creek, about eight miles south, there is shown to this day a beech tree with the following inscription carved on it: D. Boone Cilid Bar. The site of Milligan College, with its superb view of the Majestic Buffalo Mountain and the silvery waters of the Buffalo Creek flowing just below, was ear- ly chosen as an ideal spot for an institution of learning. Before the Civil War a school was established, which was attended by man ' men who afterward became illustrious in the history, not only of Tennessee, but of the Nation. After the war between the states this school ' was given the name of the Buffalo Institute. This school was founded by Colonel Baker, a man whose talented and lovable character left its impress upon the future history of the College. In 1880 a young man from Kentucky, by the name of Josephus Hopwood came to Carter County in search of a place to found an institution of learning built on the broad foundation of Christian Culture, a clean heart and a clean life. Buffalo Institute was turned over to him, and in 1882 the old name was changed to that of Milligan College, after the sainted character whose history is familiar to all Disciples of Christ. For twenty-three years from 1S80-1 ' )03. President Hop- wood directed the destines of Milligan College. The story of these twenty-three years of disinterested and unselfish service is written not in books or upon mar- ble, but in the hearts and lives of hundreds of men and women who are scattered all over America, and who are blessing humanity because they were given high ideals of life ui Milligan College, hi I ' M).
