Clearly the page has sufficient context for WP:CSD A1 including a reliable source reference. jorgenev 06:10, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation

[edit]

Note that there was also a Methodist institution named Columbia College in Milton(-Freewater), Oregon. The building stands today as the city hall, and it is listed on the NRHP as Columbia College. See Walla Walla Valley Academy, James Main Dixon, and Methodist Episcopal Church, South. I've disambiguated it as Milton-Freewater City Hall, feel free to improve upon that. Info--lots more to be found. Valfontis (talk) 19:00, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Refs for expansion

[edit]

Good stuff--some claims the college closed because if its Southern sympathies before the Civil War. There were also a couple of fires--arson may have been the cause. They didn't teach us this stuff when I was growing up there...

More on the fire. Dict of Oregon History also references Charles H. Carey, A General History of Oregon (1935, vol. 2, p. 715); Oregon Historical Quarterly, XXXII p. 67 and LVI pp. 327-51. Aboutmovies (talk) 17:41, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The charter from the legislature. A little bit. A little more. And some more. Aboutmovies (talk) 07:07, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
