THE WALHALLA FEMALE COLLEGE 



was chartered 4th March, 1872, under the auspices of Dr. Thomas S. 

 Waring, then its President, and the act of incorporation named sixteen 

 prominent citizens of the town as trustees. It is undenominational. 

 During the first five years after its charter the college was not a success, 

 having no endowment and no suitable buildings in which to conduct it. 

 At the end of this period, Rev. J. P. Smeltzer, D. D., having determined 

 not to remove with Newberry College, was elected President of the Wal- 

 halla Female College, and thereupon, with his own means, erected com- 

 modious buildings and established a college worthy of his reputation as 

 an educator, which, with the assistance of a competent corps of teachers, 

 he has successfully carried on to the present time. 



During the session 1881-82, the enrolled students, including nineteen 

 in the juvenile department, numbered eighty-seven. 



THE COURSE OF STUDY 



is arranged for six classes, three sub-collegiate, and three collegiate, junior, 

 intermediate, and senior. A post-graduate course of study is provided, 

 including Greek, Analytical Trigonometry, and Calculus, English Litera- 

 ture, Mental Philosophy, Geology, and instruction in practical duties of 

 life. 



Music and other ornamental branches are optional. 



Terms : — Board and washing, $11.50 per month ; tuition from seventy- 

 five cents to $4 per month ; music, $3. Reduction is allowed to ministers' 

 daughters.
