Name: Peter Duncan Burchard Referred by: Research related to George Washington Ca From: Fairfax, CA Time: Thursday, January 15, 2004 at 10:30:59 Comments: I'm a writer on George Washington Carver, who visited Homer in 1908 for a talk at Homer College. Researching the College a bit, I've found so far that it was a Methodist School started in 1850. It would have been a White school at the time of its founding, but by 1908, judging by Carver's speech apparently being addressed to a crowd of his people, it seems to have been a Black school. Is this correct? The site where I found the start date for the College did not include the date it ceased to exist. Does anyone know that?

Name: Rocky Keene Referred by: Just Surfed On In! From: Corsicana, TX, originally Newellton, LA Time: Tuesday, October 29, 2002 at 16:30:11 Comments: I am originally from Tensas Parish, but now
live in Texas. In your history account you do
not mention Homer College. The reason I know
about Homer College is that many years ago I
retrieved some old papers from an abandoned
house in Tensas Parish. Only one item was about Homer. I have a copy of the program for
the Spring Term of Homer College, Claiborne
Parish, Louisiana beginning on the 1st of
January 1873. The President is Rev. J. Lane
Borden. It contains a complete discription of
the college, courses and other information.
It is located on highland midway the Ouachita
and Red River. College Tuition $30.
I am interested in donating this to Homer, I
will NOT give it to a person, only to an
organization, historical society, museum or
like organization.
My wife and I will be passing near there very
soon and we would like to give it in person.
Please get back with me on this.
