The Charleston Museum was organised in March, 1773, by the 

 Charles Town Library Society. In 1815 it was transferred to the Liter- 

 ary and Philosophical Society of South Carolina, and in 1828 was de- 

 posited in the Medical College of South C;irolina. In 1850 the Museum 

 was transferred to the College of Charleston, where it was known as 

 the College of Charleston Museum. In 1907 a building was provided by 

 the City and the name changed to The Charleston Museum. 



The Museum is dependent upon duas from members and private sub- 

 scriptions for all permanent improvements, for increase of the collections, 

 and for maintenance of its educational and scientific work.
