Description: This 1969 film captures the extraction of a cornerstone in Waxahachie. As part of its centennial celebrations, Trinity University relocated a cornerstone laid on its former campus in Waxahachie (which had since become the campus for Southwestern Assembles of God College, now known as Southwestern Assemblies of God University) to its current campus in San Antonio. In this footage, a crowd watches as crews excavate the cornerstone and university officials open the time capsule kept inside.
