CHAPTER XIII.
THE COMMON SCHOOLS.
HE Pilgrim Fathers sought the bleak New England shores, leaving sunny Eng- land behind them, in the interests of eivil and religious liberty. In their rude cabins, cheered by brightly burning fagots, they taught their children to read and write whilst they instilled into their minds a love of liberty. It early oceur- red to these patriots that education was the bulwark of re- publican institutions, that if they would perpetuate self- government they must educate. Here the free school found birth. Advantages sufficient to learn to read, to write, to reckon were decmed a debt due every child born within the boundaries of the State, in order that such child when it should become a sovereign should be able to become familiar with the laws before which it stood responsible. These prin- ciples were slowly formulated in laws. Advocates of educa- tion took yet broader grounds and passing by local State boundaries looked forward to a universal national recogni- tion of education as a debt, hence it was that champion, Dr. Manasseh Cutler of Massachusetts, went to New York to attend the convention of 1787 in the interest of educational measures, and secured the passage of Article 2, of the com- pact of 1787, which gave throughout the north-western ter- ritory, one thirty-sixth of all publie lands for school pur- poses, and in addition one township of thirty-six sections in each Territory or State formed out of the northwest for Seminary, also of Article 3, which reads: " A provision prohibiting the adoption of any constitution or the enact- ment of any law that should nullify pre-existing contracts.
Be it forever remembered that this compact declared that Religion, Morality and Knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall always be encouraged."
Dr. Cutler planted himself firmly on this platform, and yielded not until success crowned his efforts. Every State cut out of the great northwest territory now enjoys the benefits of his far-sighted policy. Public schools nurtured by pub- lie funds, the outgrowth of the wise provisions embodied in Dr. Cutler's resolutions gladden millions of youth, and their blessings are yet in their infancy. Here was the germ of the whole free school system as developed throughout the West. Dr. Cutler was reared in Massachusetts ; had enjoyed the benefits of that free school system inaugurated in Boston in 1635, when the general court authorized au appropriation of four hundred pounds, for the establishment of a " schoole or college." In 1642 the first educational ordinance of the colony was adopted. By it the selectmien of every town were enjoined to have a " vigilant eye over their brethren and neighbors to see, first, that none of them shall suffer so much barbari-m in any of their families, as not to endeavor to teach, by themselves or others, their children and appren- tices so much learning as may enable them to perfectly read the English tongue, and knowledge of the capital laws, upon twenty shillings therein." The school law of Massachusetts adopted 1647 has furnished the foundation for all subse- quent legislation in the interests of education.
