    1. Lycoming College/Charles Dodson Eldred
    2. Kevin, Thank you for the look-up. May I impose on you for one more thing? Could you tell me who sold the land that the Lycoming College bought to build their academy? I know you said that you did not see Charles D. Eldred as a trustee, but maybe I am reading the following incorrectly: "In 1868 he was appointed collector of tolls for the West Branch canal at Williamsport, and reappointed the two succeeding years. He was a trustee when the grounds were purchased on which Dickinson Seminary is located, and the first part of that structure was erected during his term of trusteeship." Could this mean that he was a trustee with some outfit instead of a trustee of Dickinson Seminary? Thanks for your help, Eldred
