Dispute over university control and race at Watson
Ex Senator Carpenter met with Secretary Bristow about whisky ring suits. The Fourth National Bank of Boston was authorized to begin with 200000 capital. Commencement exercises at University resulted in a trustees vote to transfer management to the American Missionary Association and elect Rev. George Whipple president. Colored Trustees favored Langston as acting president. Fred Cong ress noted the school’s mission for colored education. The move sparked fear of prejudice and altered plans for expansion into theology and law. The outcome hinges on Denominational control and race.
