A court house, constructed of logs, had been built in the town a few years previous to its incorporation, and the county court was held there, which probably accounted for Charlotte being selected as the county seat. The court house was located at the intersection of the streets now known as Trade and Tryon.

Charlotte is famed as the place where the first Declaration of Inde- pendence was made on May 20, 1775.
Mecklenburg Declaration of Independence
"Resolved: That we, the citizens of Mecklenburg County, do hereby dissolve the political bonds which have connected us with the mother country ; and absolve ourselves from all allegiance to the British Crown, adjuring all political connection with a nation that has wantonly trampled our rights and liberties, and inhumanly shed the innocent blood of Americans at Lexington.
"Resolved: That we do hereby declare ourselves free and independent people; that we are and of right ought to be a sovereign and self-governing people, under the power of God and the general congress; to the maintenance of which independence we solemnly pledge to each other our mutual coopera- tion, our lives, our fortunes, and our most sacred honor.
15
INTRODUCTION
"Resolved: That all officers, both civil and military, in this county, be entitled to exercise the same powers and authorities as heretofore; that every member of this delegation shall henceforth be a civil officer and exercise the powers of a justice of the peace, issue process, hear and determine controversies according to law, preserve peace, union and harmony in the county, and use every exertion to spread the love of liberty and of country, until a more general and better organized system of government be established."
Early Schools and Education
The people of Mecklenburg brought with them, in the settlement of their new country, the love of education. The first schools were conducted in the homes of the teachers of their patrons. Prior to the time of the American Revolution a number of school buildings had been erected. Queens College,
-
Myers Park Methodist Church, Charlotte
or Museum, located within Charlotte, and within the territory of Sugar Creek Church, was the most noted school of Colonial times in Mecklenburg County. This college was located on a lot on South Tryon Street, where later, for many years, stood the Mecklenburg County Court House.
Early Churches and Religion
Seven churches of importance in Colonial days in Mecklenburg County were: Sugar Creek, Rocky River, Poplar Tent, Hopewell, Steel Creek, Prov- idence and Centre. The congregations of these early churches were composed of men and women of strong character, high motives and dignified demeanor. To their influence throughout the community and upon succeeding generations may be attributed the fine type of Christian citizenship which has characterized the people of Mecklenburg County. Many members of the families composing these seven Colonial churches have gone out to other sections of the U. S., particularly to the Southwestern and Middle Western sections of the country,
16
INTRODUCTION
to establish homes and to carry with them the fine ideals of citizenship and Christian influence of their Mecklenburg ancestry. Numbers of the descendants of these Mecklenburg citizens who moved to other parts of the U. S. make pilgrimages to the venerable churches to read upon tombstones in the old burying grounds records of the lives of their forefathers. Upon anniversary occasions of these historic churches, all-day services are held and men and women from many distant states are numbered among the persons in attend- ance.
CHARLOTTE TODAY
Twenty-five years ago the South began to arouse from her bed of rich, deep traditions and better herself. There is a new South today-an onward- driving pulsating South in industry, agriculture and finance.
----
City Armory-Auditorium, Charlotte
Fundamentally successful industries develop best where abundant raw materials, mechanical power and stable population combine. Tremendously rich in natural resources, power and raw materials, the South has marched forward with seven-league boots, and today, the economic advantages resulting from the development of her resources are leading the trail of industry south- ward.
This is true, not only in the textile field, where advantageous conditions of power, climate, labor and living conditions at the source of raw materials have already transferred the center of industry from New England to the South, but in other lines of diversified manufacturing as well.
North Carolina today is the pacemaker of the South; it leads in textile manufacturing and hydro-electric power development, and Charlotte is the center of a textile manufacturing territory having 770 mills, operating over
17
INTRODUCTION
10,000,000 spindles and consuming more cotton than any other section in the world.
Charlotte is the center of one of the largest hydro-electric developments in the U. S., the total horsepower developed and in immediate prospect of developing being more than a million.
It is the largest center in the South for textile mill machinery and equip- ment, practically all the large companies in the U. S. and England handling their entire business in the South through Charlotte offices and plants.
It is the "Southern Market" for dyestuffs, laboratories and offices being maintained here by the leading dye corporations of the country.
Mecklenburg County Court House, Charlotte
Charlotte has annual payrolls of over 12 million dollars, from 186 widely diversified manufacturing and industrial plants.
Charlotte's Greatest Asset
The climate of Charlotte is outstanding, and can be classed as the city's leading asset. The U. S. Weather Bureau has made records of Charlotte's climate for the past 45 years and the fact is developed that the people of this city live the year 'round in a temperature which averages 60.2 degrees. The mean maximum temperature is 69.5 degrees and the mean minimum is 50.9 degrees. The vicinity is favored in wind and rain, in sunshine and shadow. Agricultural activities may be pursued practically without interruption through- out the year.
Manufacturers and Manufacturing
Charlotte has many distinct advantages to offer the manufacturer-four competing rail lines, low freight rates, pure water and a convenient location.
18
INTRODUCTION
Manufacturers should investigate this thriving city. Living conditions are ideal. Climate is mild and pleasant, and schools are among the finest in the South. Excellent hotels and shops. Cordial social life. Several excellent golf courses.
Power
Charlotte is the home of the Duke Power Co., operating one of the best hydro-electric systems in the world. Southern electric companies are tied up into a great super-power zone, and abundant "white coal" assures ample power at low cost.
Labor
Charlotte's labor is of the finest in the country today-native, white, sober, industrious. Labor troubles are practically unknown and the labor turnover is small.

Textiles
Here the textile development of the South is centering. Seven hundred and seventy mills operate 10,000,000 spindles within a hundred miles, and a great business has grown up in supplying these mills with dyestuffs, cotton, machinery and equipment of all kinds.
As a Manufacturing Center, Charlotte Offers:
1. Low power rates for manufacturing purposes.
2. Close proximity to the sources of all material for finished products.
3. Cotton, cotton yarns, cottonseed, cotton oil, tobacco, peanuts, kaolin, wood pulp, lumber, etc.
4. Logical location for a manufacturer of commodities for export through the ports of Norfolk, Wilmington, Charleston and Savannah.
5. A very desirable type of high-class labor available to manufacturers.
19
INTRODUCTION
6. Mild climatic conditions throughout the year. There are nine months of exceptional open-season weather.
7. The adequate transfer facilities of four railroads, with daily terminal facil- ities of 5,200 carloads.
8. Desirable living conditions and unusual residential developments.
Trade Center and Ideal Distribution Point
Charlotte has a greater population within a fifty-mile radius than Rich- mond; a greater population within a hundred-mile radius than Atlanta. Char- lotte is the geographical and business center of the Carolinas.
