He remained as | superintendent for three years, dur- ing which he conceived the idea of founding a college to train teachers, | having encountered difficulty in ob- | taining competent instructors for the | schools. | He interested Robert C. Winthrop, then chairman of the George Pea- | bady board, and obtained an appro- | priation of $1,500 with which to es- tablish the college. In 1895 the in- | stitutton was removed to Rock Hill, |S. €., and eventually was accepted as a state institution. The state since :hns made large appropriations to meet the expanding needs of the col- | tege. | 1t was Dr. Johnson's proud boast | that “the sun never sets on Winthrop daughters,” a reference to more than 10,000 graduates of the institution scattered over the carth.

But his choice was influenced perhaps by the fact that Sapelo Island and the group of which it is a part are rich in romance and history. Successively [they have been occupled by explor: | ers. missionaires, pirates, and French Inoblemen, They were first sqttied by the Spanish pioneers who crossed the Atlantic soon after Columbus’ ,second voyage to the land of his dis- icovery, Shortly afterwards came |the misstonaries, only to be driven |away or killed by Indians. TLater |the English of South Carolina and French settlers fought for the islands, which meanwhile were the prey of desperados of the sea. Near the end of the eighteenth century ,Sapelo Island became the property |of a group of French noblemen and was a haven for refugees of French revolution, During the rev- olution and the war of 1812 the islands were the victims of frequent |sea raids and by the end of the lat- ter conflict were almest deserted. Then it was found that the sail was admirably suited to the growing of icotton and farming held sway until jafter the Civil War. Restores Setting More recently a new development began. Seventeen years ago Coffin | bought Sapelo Island in its entirety and proceeded at once to restore the | |old world setting which many years before. | “Many old ruins left by the Span- !iords still stand upon the island and |these Coffin has been careful to preserve. Meanwhile, he has stocked Ithe flelds and woodlands of his ‘island retreat with game of many |kinds. assuring President Coolidge {an opportunity to try his skill with {the shot gun once more.
