Salado College Ruins
Salado College began on October 8, 1859 at a tent meeting at Salado Springs of prominent men from throughout Bell County with a desire to create a high class school in the county. The school operated as Salado College until 1885. It was then home to Thomas Arnold High School from 1890 until the school closed in 1918 and became a free public school until 1924. A fire destroyed the main building in 1901 and again in 1902. The building was rebuilt each time. A fire in 1924 destroyed the building again. This time the citizens could not afford to rebuild. -from Wikipedia
