cluded to call a meeting of the alumni who were in Columbia
or within reach the next night (year?) in the State House
(the Legislature was in session, and Fraser and Perry were
members). An enthusiastic, and I may say anxious audi-
ence filled the House of Rep. I remained long enough to see
the organization, enrol my name, and I had to take the train
that night. Governor John L. Manning was elected Presi-
dent before I left." So wrote L. L. Fraser, of the class of
1846, to Professor A. C. Moore, May 9, 1909.

The class of 1846 held a reunion December 7, 1880, at
which time they listened to an address from W. B. Wilson,
of Yorkville, who graduated in that class. A committee was
appointed to initiate a movement looking to the formation of
an association of alumni of the South Carolina College. In
accordance with their instructions the committee called a
meeting of the alumni for December 6, 1881, and invited
Hon. LeRoy F. Youmans to deliver an address before them.
The meeting was held in the Hall of the House of Represen-
tatives, where after the address the Alumni Association of
South Carolina College was formed. Hon. John L. Manning
was elected president; the secretary and treasurer was Col.
F. W. McMaster. A memorial was presented to the legisla-
ture praying for a small appropriation to re-establish the
South Carolina College. The appropriation was obtained,
and the College of Agriculture and Mechanics was reorgan-
ized and opened in the fall of 1882 as the South Carolina
College.

A Junior Alumni Association was later organized consist-
ing of alumni who had attended the college since 1882. A

trace of this organization is observable in the custom of
appointing a junior orator for the alumni reunions in addi-
tion to an older alumnus, the senior orator.

In 1904 a loan fund was started for the purpose of aiding
students, especially to lend enough to tide them over difficult
periods. This fund has now reached the sum of $12,000. The
money is lent to be paid back after graduation. It is in the
hands of Adjunct Professor Francis W. Bradley and a board
of trustees, the members of which are Messrs. Edwin G.
Seibles, Francis H. Weston, Mclver Williamson, Lewis W.
Parker, August Kohn.

The presidents of the association have been John L. Man-
ning, 1881-1889; S. J. Duffle, 1890; L. W. Parker, 1891;
Francis H. Weston, 1892 ; W. A. Clark, 1893; W. T. C. Bates,
1894; James Mclntosh, 1895; A. N. Talley, 1896; J. G.
McCants, 1897; R. P. Hamer, 1898-1904; E. G. Seibels, 1905-
1908; J. M. Kinard, 1909-1910; F. H. Weston, 1911; W. W.
Ball, 1912; E. R. Lucas, 1913.

The following alumni have held the position of secretary
and treasurer : F. W. McMaster, 1881-1882 ; J. Q. Marshall,
1883-1890; F. H. McMaster, 1890-1892; August Kohn, 1893-
1903 ; H. L. Spahr, 1904-1906 ; H. C. Davis, 1907 ; A. C. Moore,
1908-1913 ; A. C. Carson, 1914.

From 1881 to 1890 the annual meeting of the association
was held during the month of December. In 1891 the reunion
was held on commencement day ; thereafter it has been held
on Tuesday of commencement week. As often as possible
after 1891 there was a banquet some time during the session
of the legislature, which had been changed from December
to January. Since the institution of Founders' Day in 1910
the annual meeting has taken place on that day, in LeConte
College after 1911.
