A BRIEF SKETCH OF ITS HISTORY.


The early settlers of Haverhill were of the far-seeing, nuself- ish mould that characterized the founders of our Nation; not their own comforts and selfish interests, but the mental, moral, and material advancement of their children and their Coun- try received their first thought. They considered a liberal ed- ucation of fundamental im- portance, and as soon as their own rough honses were com- pleted, they turned their at- tention to the erection of a school-house.


The first building was a wooden one, erected in 1793. a little south of the present old academy building. The next year the school was in- corporated as " Haverhill Academy." The free use of this building was allowed the court of sessions and court of common pleas for some PEARSON HALL .. years. In 1814, this build- ing was destroyed by fire. and the present brick building was erected under the supervis- ion of Edmund Stevens, whose thorough workmanship and good taste are evidenced by the endurance and handsome archi- tecture of the building that stands to-day. after eighty-three years, an ornament to the village.


From the time of its erection to the present year (1897). the

building underwent very few changes other than occasional repairs and slight alterations of the interior, to meet the re- quirements of the school in later years.


When it was decided, in 1896, to erect a new building for school purposes, the question arose as to the disposition of the old academy. At this time, Mr. J. II. Pearson of Chicago, a former townsman, came forward with an offer to repair the old building and put it in suitable shape for a village hall and library. The offer was gladly accepted and quickly carried ont.


Mr. Pearson remodelled the interior of the building entirely, making a handsome and roomy village hall of the first floor, fitted with folding chairs, polished hard-wood floor, and con- venient stage. At either end of the stage are stairways lead- ing to dressing rooms above.


On the second floor, back, is a commodious kitchen, thor- oughly equipped with stove, cooking utensils, dishes, table linen, ete. The left side of the second floor, running from the front hall to the kitchen, is a dining or banquet room, com- pletely furnished, while the large room on the right side of the building is fitted up handsomely and appropriately with book cases, tables, roll-top desks, and other furniture, for a village library. On the beautifully frescoed walls hang portraits of noted men, and of many of Haverhill's prominent citizens of the past and present. The list of these pictures is given below, and it is hoped that others will be added from time to time.


At a meeting of the alunni of Haverhill academy, held Angust 4th, it was voted unanimously that the old academy should henceforth be known as " Pearson Hall," in recognition of Mr. Pearson's generons and deeply-appreciated gift to his old home.


The hall contains a few presents from other citizens, chief among them being a beautiful chandelier and set of bracket lamps, for the assembly room down stairs, from Amos Tarle- ton, Esq.

EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS RECEIVED BY THE CORRESPONDING SECRETARIES.


A large number of letters were . received from former students. teachers, and old friends of Haver- hill academy that could not well be read during the reunion exer- vises. We have decided, there- fore, to publish extraets from many of these, believing they will be as interesting to the readers of this book-many of whom will discover WILJJJAM LEARNED HINDS. old friends in the writers-as they were cheering and inspiring to those by whom they were received in the days when the outcome of their efforts in behalf of the reunion was uncertain, and the temptation to become discouraged was strong.


Miss Mary J. Sterens :


MY DEAR MADAM : I thank you, though too tardily, for your note of invitation to a " grand reunion " of all the old students


146


HAVERHILL ACADEMY.


and teachers of dear old Haverhill. I wish I could say that I would be there next August. It is almost forty-six years ago that I left my home in Haverhill, but I have not forgotten what a " charming place " it is, nor its " unsurpassed scenery," nor its " bracing air." I shall never cease to feel a deep interest in all that concerns the welfare of the old town, and I hope some day to show it to my children.


I hear of your enterprise in building a new academy. May all success attend every effort for the best welfare of the town. God bless my childhood's home !


I remain, Yours most truly, FRANCES NELSON HOOPER.


Washington, D. C., Feb. 24, 1897, 943 Westminster St.


NEW YORK, June 1, 1897.


DEAR MISS STEVENS: I was very much gratified to receive your letter, which revived memories of by-gone days that have always been pleasant memories to me. Just think of it, forty years have passed since the events you alluded to occurred ! A boy myself, I tried to teach all I knew of the three R's and the profomder mysteries of grammar, algebra, etc., to as orderly, bright, and healthy a lot of girls and boys as I have ever seen together, and at the princely salary of $30 a month, I think. I am sure I could not earn it now. I think I did then. I re- member nothing unpleasant connected with the school or schol- ars, which I surely should do if my labors had not been sie- cessful.


Now let me say, while the reminiscent mood is upon me, that sinee I went back from your beautiful village to my studies at Dartmouth in the spring of 1857, I have been a resident of eight states ; served through the war as captain of artillery ; have spent several years of travel and residence in Europe. Asia, and Africa, and for the last twenty years have been a resident of this city. I cannot at present say whether I shall


1

be able to respond to your kind invitation to the centennial celebration in August, but I hope so. At all events, I wish you many years of comfortable living, and would ask you to convey to all the old girls and boys, whether they remember me or not, iny best wishes for their continued health and happiness.


I am, with great respect,


Your friend and well-wisher, E. W. DENNY.

WATERTOWN, August 3. 1897.


Miss K. MOK. JOHNSTON, DEAR MADAM :- It seems to me a V very remote period when I was so profitably and enjoyably con- nected with Haverhill Academy. I have for these many years . held in memory the schoolmates of that long-ago period, and from time to time pictured with anch gratification their fair and intellectnal faces upon the retina of mind-faces then fair, now ripe with the wrinkles of time, and perchance body bent by the burdens of many years; rich with merit, worthily awaiting the applauded " well done."


I hope you will have a most enjoyable meeting, and I may receive a definite account of the same, and would be pleased to contribute to such published report as may be issued concern- ing the occasion.


Sincerely yours,


J. WESLEY CARTER.

STOWE, Vr., July 30, 1897.


DEAR MISS STEVENS :- I received an invitation to the reunion of the scholars and teachers of Haverhill Academy, to be held at Haverhill, N. II., August 4th and 5th, 1897. I would like very much to attend the reunion, and I deeply regret that I can- not be present.


I was a student at the old Academy in the winter and spring of 1846-'7. Prof. Heman Rood was the principal, and his daughters, Miss Susan and Miss Jenny, were his assistants.

I do not think I can give you any information regarding the scholars who attended the Academy at that time. I have lost sight of most of them, and those living you will probably hear from.


Wishing you a very pleasant reunion, I remain,


Yours truly, SARAH L. PORTER.


EAST HIGHGATE, Vr., July 26, 1897.


To the Haverhill Academy Reunion Ass'n :-


Responding to the very kind invitation of the trustees to join the reunion of the scholars and teachers of Haverhill Academy, to be holden on the 4th and 5th proxima.


I beg leave to say that the invitation recalls many pleasant memories of the days profitably spent, when I was a student in your Academy. My advent there was just about the close of the principalship of Ephraim Kingsbury, for a long time regis- ter of deeds of Grafton conty, as well as principal of the Academy.


I remember your institution as I would an old friend, who had, when life was young, pointed me to the right road and helped to equip me for its journey and its battles.


I remember a very few of "the boys," among them a son of Jo Bell, and also another boy, one of the Page family-a family which I think has furnished some governors of states ; and among my advantages at Haverhill I count the privilege of staying there through court time and listening to JJo Bell, to Ichabod Bartlett, and Levi Woodbury, all shining lights in the great galaxy of eminent men in the famons bar of New Hamp- shire. It was a school in oratory and logic.


Turning the leaves in the picture gallery of memory, I seem to see again the enchanting picturesque seenery of the surround- ings of Haverhill-your placid and beautiful river ( the Connec- ticut), bordered by fertile meadows, with its great ox-bow. rich with their wealth of harvest, which made comfortable by their abundance the dwellers in the quiet homes in this Arcadian paradise. But all this does not complete the picture; for it

has its setting in the beautiful mountains which sentinel the valley and make the landscape perfect.


" A thing of beauty And a joy forever."


to him who has once looked upon it.


All these charms of location and surrounding should be potent . arguments with parents when choosing a school for their sons, for all these should be helps to a higher life, a nobler manhood. a more perfect scholarship. Nature, through which its anthor speaks to man, is a great teacher.


In the busy marts of the great city, New York, where I have spent most of my life, I have often times found rest and refresh- ment in the remembrance of my student days at Haverhill. I greatly regret that it will be impossible for me to visit those scenes again at your reunion, and greet (if any survive) those whom I knew in those years so long ago. But wishing for your reunion a great success, and believing and hoping that the work of Haverhill Academy is not yet done, but that in the future as in the past, will be sent forth from its halls many graduates whom society will recognize as ornaments and benefactors of their race,


I remain,


Very truly yours, Wy. L. HINDs. In Octogenarian.


D. O. BEAN, PRINCIPAL OF HAVERHILL ACADEMY IN 1885-8.


Though not able to be present in person, I will be with you in spirit, wishing all prosperity and the richest blessings.


I believe a new era has begun for Haverhill and Haverhill Academy. Long may the institution you replant and revive to-day prosper and ennoble the coming generations, among whom it shall over stand as a memorial of sacrifices nobly and wisely planned.

MY DEAR MISS STEVENS :- Sometime since the very kind invitation was received for the coming week. I regret exceed- ingly that I cannot give myself the pleasure of being present at the many interesting ceremonies to take place in that beautiful old town.


With best wishes for the prosperity of dear old Haverhill and all its good people, I am,

PROFILE HOUSE, N. II., Angust 1, 1897. WILLIAM REDING, HAVERHILL, N. H. :


Expected to be with you, but a " Gala Day" here prevents my leaving home. Remember me with highest regards for the good people of Haverhill, the still unich loved home of my child- hood.


C. H. GREENLEAF.


MARBLEHEAD, August 1, 1897.


Pleasant memories of days spent in Haverhill still linger with me. I bear in mind the social and edneational infinence of the school, with Miss Mandana Buswell at its head.


Haverhill (outside of the quiet nook of my birthplace ) was the first town my young eyes looked upon. I have seen much of the "great world" since; in New England, the Canadas, and across the wide waters, have ( through my husband) been much in the confusion, turmoil, and encouragement of church, temper- ance, and missionary interests, but I still have a restful memory of Haverhill.


I trust these days of anniversary exercises will be all you have planned. May the sun shine at the hour needed, may the ser- vices bring mich comfort and cheer, while the students of the present and former years, young, middle-aged, and gray-haired. gather for mutual congratulation and enjoyment.


Yours most cordially,


ANNA R. MONTGOMERY.

CENTENNIAL ANNIVERSARY.


SILVER CREEK, NEW YORK, July 31, 1897. Miss Kate Me K. Johnston, Corresponding Secretary :


MY DEAR MADAM : The invitation to the renmon gave me a inost delightful surprise, and I regret exceedingly that I cannot be present. I am taken back at once to the days of my girl- hood and the pleasant year I spent at the old Academy.


How long ago it was-1850-'51. The world was young with me, and those youthful days are filled with fragrant and tender memories tinged with all the freshness and brightness of youth.


Mr. Beane, the principal, scholarly, dignified, and courteons ; Mrs. Carpenter, the preceptress, so brilliant and vivacions; Miss Page, always sweet, gentle, patient, and helpful; and Miss MeKeen, with her cultured intellect, her highly refined spiritual nature, and strong, commanding character, which shone through her quiet and sometimes ahnost timid demeanor.


In writing to me one said of Miss Mekeen, " I supposed when I first saw her that she was learned, and good, and wise, but I did not think I should ever love her as I am now con- strained to do. She will ever occupy in my mind the place of ' model teacher.'"


Among the names that rise instinctively to mind, aside from my cousins, are those of Elizabeth Page, Lizzie Quincy, Mary Spalding, Anne Ward, Miss Dewey, Carrie Beane, Lizzie Mer- rill, and the Baker sisters, daughters of the Methodist minister.


There was a strong religions interest in the school the year I was there. An extensive revival was enjoyed in the place, in which the school largely shared. I remember with great inter- est the Rev. Mr. Greeley, the then young pastor of the Congre- gational church, and his earnest and impressive preaching.


Miss Carrie Spalding played the organ in those days, and Deacon Merrill led the prayer-meeting, visited the sick, and, like the Master he served so well, " went about doing good."


Among all my Haverhill friends and acquaintances of that school year, there is only one whom I have met frequently since-Mrs. F. B. Brewer, living then at the home of her father. Professor Rood, in Haverhill, but since 1861 residing at West- field in this county. With this cultured and most estimable

lady, who passed away suddenly last December, I have kept up a degree of intimacy which has been a constantly recurring reminder of my pleasant school days at Haverhill.


I extend cordial greetings to any old friends and school- mates who may be present, and also my best wishes for the continual prosperity of the Academy.


EMMA JOHNSTON BURGESS.


The following is taken from a letter written by Mrs. L .. D. Stevens shortly after her return from the Reunion : /


" I have such delightful memories of those two days I am not sure that I can crystallize them and give you my impres- sions of the whole in a few lines, but I can tell you what impressed me most strongly at the time, and will never be for- gotten ; the spirit of loyalty to their Alma Mater which filled the hearts of all her returning sons and daughters. The pur- pose which usually characterizes a reunion of this kind is the renewal of old friendships, and while this indeed formed a delightful part of the reunion at Haverhill, the real purpose in the hearts of the Ahunni was to do honor to their beloved Aha Mater. This spirit of loyalty animated every one of the meet- ings, giving to all the addresses previously prepared a permanent valne, and so inspired the impromptu speeches that they reached a high degree of excellence. The same beautiful spirit pervaded the audience, who listened with unflagging attention to the many tributes paid at its centennial to the worth and glory of Haverhill Academy."

A PARTING WORD.


Our hope and aim in compiling this fragmentary account has been to enable those who participated in the exercises and shared in the peculiar pleasures of the ever-to-be-remembered reunion to live over again in after years its happy events, treasuring up the sweet memory of those two bright days through all the hurry and turmoil of the coming years, leaving a rose-tinted after-glow npon life's horizon, like that of the set- ting sun upon the evening sky.


We were never more keenly conscious than at this moment that sentiment and the subject of money are so hard to mingle, that one entirely crowds out the other. At the time of the reunion we were held back from making a direct appeal for aid, to the sons and daughters of our loved AAlma Mater, by the thought that they might feel we were welcoming them home from a mercenary motive, merely. And yet, in spite of the enthusiasm and good wishing for the future prosperity of the beloved institution, an undertone of sad conviction would intrude itself that all those bright predictions were but idle words, with no hope of fulfillment, so long as there is but a small fund to help in defraying the expenses of the school.


Longer reflection but deepens this conviction to such an extent that we are impelled to resist the desire to leave the sor- did subject of money out of this little book.


To think that the successful men and women, who owe so much of what they have gained in life to the discipline of Haverhill Academy, would turn a deaf ear to her imperative needs when frankly presented, is to doubt the sincerity of their expressed interest, and that we are unwilling to do.


As the parent turns to the children, who have been reared and sent forth from home, for aid in time of need, even so do we turn to yon, old friends and students of Haverhill Academy.

To fail of doing this would be to defraud you of your rights. It is your joy and privilege to help her carry on the grand work of giving to the youth of this and coming generations the oppor- tunity to fit themselves for life. Hence we earnestly ask your aid in contributing to our endowment fund. Some of you are giving to other institutions of learning, why not stretch out a helping hand to the dear old Alma Mater? Without it she can- not maintain a first-class school, for in these days good teachers command good salaries. Look back to your own school days, and consider what you have in your power to do for the poor youths who are being reared in the old Granite state, remem- bering that we cannot expect to receive a sufficient amount from the town to make it a school of the highest standard, and only such a school can draw students from regions adjoining. We have more competition to contend with than in the old days, but our pride in the loved academy does not abate. The next ten years, in our new building, will decide the character of our school ; hence the trustees and school board have ventured to secure the most efficient corps of teachers to be found, in order to make a right beginning ; we appeal to you to make it possi- ble for us to hold to this course. That some, who could and should give out of their abundance, will do nothing is no reason for withholding your gift from those who would be blessed by it. Let no one make the mistake of thinking because he cannot do great things he will do nothing at all. Great results often grow from small beginnings.
