Описание: Excerpt from Forty-Seventh Annual Catalogue of Biddle University, Charlotte, North Carolina, 1914-1915 Biddle University was founded in 1867, and is located at Charlotte, N. C. The Institution was named in memory of the late Major Henry J. Biddle, of Philadelphia, Whose Widow, Mrs. M. D. Biddle, wae one of its most Liberal supporters. It is chartered by the legislature of the State, and is under the auspicies of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America. It stands at the radiating point of seven railroads, in the midst of a dense and comparatively intelligent colored population, and occupies a site of seventy acres, Within the city limits. It is situated in the heart of the South Atlantic region, Which contains the two synods of Atlantic and Catawba, having 818 colored churches, 212 ministers, scores of young men in preparation for the ministry, With a large number of schools and academies under their care. These schools and churches must be furnished With intelligent Christian teachers and preachers, Who must be largely educated on the field, and in contact With the people among Whom they are to labor. Such training is given here at less expense than it could be elsewhere; the student has the best opportunity for a Christian educa tion, together With the refining influences of a Christian home; and he is kept at the same time in contact and sympathy With the people.
