.1 ln the straggling little frontier settlement of Louisville, sad- dled with the proud importance of being the capital of the State of Cweorgia, in the year 1801, a collection of respectable citizens bear- ing the extraordinary title of Senatus Academicus were contend- ing with due parliamentary dignity, but with considerable anima- tion over who should have a coveted prize. The object of their de- sire was nothing more than a 'college or seminary of learning' which the state had chartered sixteen years previously. jackson County was selected. But jackson County was extensive in those days, indeed, as large as a half dozen twentieth century Cieorgia counties, and so the problem was only half settled until the exact spot was picked out. ln the midst of summer 118013 they set out into the forests to the northwest and did not stop until they had almost entered the Indian territory. The land was hilly and the streams clear and swift I After debating various eminences they agreed upon a small plateau high above the Oconee River where lt swirled down over some rocks near a clump of cedar trees This spot was known as the Cedar Shoals among the few frontiersmen who had wandered this far into the northwest In the fall of 1801 a large three story brick structure pat terned after the principal hall at Yale began to arise on the crest of the hill By 1805 the western half had been finished which the trus tees jubilantly named Franklin College in honor of honest Ben who personified learning and wisdom and who at one t1me en deared himself to C-eorgians by acting as their Colonial agent in London from College Life 1n the Old South E Merton Coulter
