    Hereford College opened 1902 as co-educational public school in newly-built, 3-story main building. By 1903, college was transferred to Christian Church for needed financial support. Renamed Add-Ran College. The next year, name changed to Panhandle Christian College. Relying on tuition alone for support, college was forced to close in 1912. Housed Hereford High School, 1915-26. This marker is mounted on Roswell, New Mexico, brownstone from the old main building. (1966) Erected by college ex-students in tribute to early Christian leaders.
