Hall's Wilmington Gazette   June 13, 1799 June 13, 1799
   The annual examination in the University of this State will commence on the 
4th of July. The Committee of Visitation whose duty it will be then to attend 
in order to pronounce judgment on the examination so far as relates to the 
conduct and profiency of the students will consist of the following Trustees:
MR. WALTER ALVES of Hillsboro; MR. WALLACE ALEXANDER of Morgan; MR. THOMAS 
BLUNT of Halifax; MR. JAMES GLASGOW of Newbern; MR. WILLIAM GRAVE of 
Fayetteville; MR. JOHN HAMILTON of Salisbury; Mr. SAMEUL JOHNSTON of Edenton; 
MR. DUNCAN MOORE of Wilmington.
   The members of the Committee, as the public guardians of the institution, 
are anxiously solicited to be puncutual in their attendance. The present state 
of the University rendering every possible support necessary, a moment of 
reflection will convince them that is celebrity must depend in great measure 
on the exertions of those under whose direction it is placed. As a public 
seminary of learningm, it must be entitled to their patronage, and as an 
institution under their particular superintendance, it certainy merits their 
superior attention as the gentlement of the senior class will stand Candidates 
for the Bachelor's degree and a number of single orations be delivered on the 
occasions.
                                     By order of the President
                                     WILLIAM E. WEBB, Sec.
