Image of a drawing of Haygood Memorial Hall, known today as Haygood Holsey Hall, at Paine Institute (later Paine College) in Augusta, Georgia. The four-story structure is surrounded by a single-story porch, and a clock tower rises above the entrance. Four dormers project from the mansard roof.
This school was founded by leaders of the Colored Methodist Episcopal (CME) Church, including Lucius Holsey, in 1884. The Paine Institute's founding established a practical model for interracial cooperation that CME officials would subsequently apply to all aspects of the church's administration. - Metadata URL:
