to the same body at its meeting in Minneapolis, Minn., in 1886, and also represented them at the Centennial Assembly, which met in Philadelphia, Pa., in 1888. Her stay of nine years at Abbeville, S. C. , her present location, has been entirely devoted to the work of education. The school which she so much loves and which has been under her fostering care from its incipiency is yet growing and has become a flourishing little enterprise to her, and is doing a noble part of the work along this line. Long may this faithful servant of Christ live to do even greater work in His cause to lift up an humble people!
CHAPTER XXII.
SCOTIA SEMINARY.
(CONCORD, N. C.).
This school is under the control of the Board for Freedmen of Northern Presbyterian Church. It is the outgrowth of a parochial school established by Rev. Luke Borland and his wife, in 1865 or 1866, who deserve great credit for the zeal and perseverance with which they clung to their work through trying times. In 1870 the school was incorporated by the State as a seminary' under its present name, having that year twelve boarding pupils in a little plank house 16x24 feet. In 1876 it sent out its first graduating class of nine members.
