Notes

"The Halifax Free Church College (1848-1878) was established by the Free Church Presbyterians in Halifax in 1848. There were three students enrolled in 1848. By 1860, twenty six had graduated from the school. When the Seccession and Free Church Presbyterians merged in 1860, the Truro Seminary (formerly the West River Seminary), run by the Seccessionists, joined with the Free Church College. With the union of all Presbyterians into the Presbyterian Church in Canada in 1875, the college grew and soon needed more space. It met in various buildings in Halifax until it purchased Albro House in 1878. By an act of Parliament in 1879, the college became known simply as the Presbyterian College, Halifax. The first degrees from the Presbyterian College were granted in 1883." Cf. https://ucceast.ca/27273-place-pine-hill-divinity-hall/
