[107:1] See the interesting account of Rev. Moses Waddell's school in
South Carolina, on the upper Savannah, where the students, including
John C. Calhoun, McDuffe, Legare, and Petigru, were educated in the
wilderness. They lived in log huts in the woods, furnished their own
supplies, or boarded near by, were called to the log school-house by
horn for morning prayers, and then scattered in groups to the woods for
study. Hunt, "Calhoun" (Phila., 1907), p. 13.
