Ha Clfftu |ti. Beta Theta Pi Fraternity was founded at Miami Univer- sity, Oxford, Ohio, in 1839. Jo Riley Knox first sug- gested the idea, and liaving taken eight other gentlemen into his confidence, the first meeting was held on July 4th, 1839. The University of North Carolina Chapter was established in 1852 as Eta Prime and lived until 1861. Its initiates numbered forty-eight men. The Chapter was re-established in 1889 by a union of Beta Theta Pi and the Mvstic Seven Fraternities. The Mvstic Seven Fra- ternity was founded at Wesleyan in 1837 by Hamilton Brewer, and its membership numbered about four hundred. After protracted negotiations a union was effected with Beta Theta Pi. The ' ' Star of the South Chapter of the Mystic Seven thus became the Eta Beta of Beta Theta Pi. £t(a ©eta IV ember l tp. 1891.
