Ladies and Gentlemen:
It is with the highest sense of satisfaction that, as
governor of North Carolina and on behalf of the board
of trustees of the University and in the name of the
state of North Carolina, I accept this beautiful Me-morial,
given to the University by two of her distin-guished
and loyal sons, John Motley Morehead of the
class of 1891, and Rufus Lenoir Patterson of the class
of 1893. I accept it for the State as a fitting memorial
to the distinguished lines of Moreheads and Pattersons
who have been intimately associated with the life of
this beloved institution since it was first chartered and
who throughout the history of North Carolina have
played an Important and constructive role in its up-building.
I dedicate this tower and the sweet music of
these bells to the future upbuilding of this institution
