20. 1893 Reports
Officers of the Conference (p. 2). Trustees of Shenandoah Institute—George P. Hott, W. R.
Berry, C. P. Dyche, John S. Geil, J. N. Fries, E. Ruebush, J. R. Ridenour, W. H. Burtner, and Michael
Hinkle; Visiting Committee to Shenandoah Institute—Rev. S. L. Rice and P. J. Lawrence. S. D. Skelton
was appointed to receive moneys for Shenandoah Institute.
Assessment for Shenandoah Institute (p. 10). We, your committee to collect money for
Shenandoah Institute, report as follows: Collected, $70.40. Respectfully submitted, S. D. Skelton.
Excerpts of the Report of the Committee on Education (p. 14). …Recognizing the fact that
true education embraces the development, expansion and culture of the entire man, it touches and
beautifies the soul, which loses not its imprints in time nor in eternity; and now realizing the success of
the past and with hope for the future, be it: Resolved, (1) That we praise God for his guidance in the
educational works of the church. (2) That our attachment for Shenandoah Institute as the school of our
conference is still unbroken. (3) That we recommend Union Biblical Seminary to all our young men
who desire theological training and urge them to attend. (4) That we are highly pleased with the success
of Lebanon Valley College, and hope its good work may continue. P. J. Lawrence, Com.
Report of Shenandoah Institute (pp. 16-17). Dear Brethren, This hour affords an opportunity
to record, in behalf of Shenandoah Institute, gratitude to God for the blessings of another year. The
history of a Christian educational institution is not the record of its struggles and successes from its
inception to its downfall. The biography of all who have come under its instructions and influences
would but in part serve to complete the record. Though a thousand avenues it touches and quickens the
church, and purifies and ennobles the state, to an extent that baffles the most astute scribe. This being
true, the Church, having this great charge of Christian education (the only real education), should
exercise the most diligent control of its schools and with an eagle eye scrutinize all their teachings;
otherwise, it becomes responsible to God who will in nowise spare the guilty.
Shenandoah Institute, at Dayton, Va., is the child of the Virginia Conference, and aims to serve
its parent loyally. The Church has in it a worthy enterprise—worthy in its aim, and worthy, we believe,
in a good degree, in the success it has had. In all its vicissitudes, it has had noble friends and helpers
who have in one way and another aided in the work. We believe the School never had a better influence
or more friends.
The year 1891-1892 closed with a total enrollment of 138. Eight completed literary courses;
three the Music Teachers’ course; six the Commercial Course; and twelve the Bible Normal Union.
Your Board of Direction, in its annual session June 1892, commended the work of the year and left the
Reports 1892 134
