Mr. Noyes was a shrewd, industrious, business man who, by economy and thrift accumulated what at that time was accounted a comfortable fortune. He left three children : Joseph, Thomas Jefferson and Lucy.


The people of Andover and vicinity were especially interested in the following clause in his will :


Item 4 I do hereby direct my executor to take $10000.00 out of my personal property and bank stock, and appropriate it for the support


140


HISTORY OF ANDOVER.


of a public school; said school to be under the direction of six direct- ors, who shall at first be appointed by my executor, and after that they shall fill their own vacancies. The house for said school to be built on the farm on which I now live, which farm I also give and bequeath for the support of said school; said school to be denominated "Noyes School."


In accordance with this clause of the will the executor, Robert Barber, appointed the following directors: Josiah Badcock, William Proctor, Silas Merrill, John Simonds, John Joseph Bry- ant and Robert Barber.


An act to incorporate the directors of the Noyes School in the town of Andover, was passed by the Legislature, and approved June 21, 1822. A large, old-style, one-story schoolhouse was built in 1822, on the Noyes farm, nearly opposite the dwelling house, and the school was opened in 1823 under the manage- ment of Benjamin M. Tyler of Andover, as principal.


For five years the school was very successfully maintained, to the great credit of the principal and directors. The Noyes resi- dence was converted into a boarding-house and was always filled with an excellent class of students. Considering all the condi- tions, this was probably the most successful school during its existence, ever maintained in the town.


When Joseph, the eldest son of Mr. Noyes, became of age. in 1826, he instituted a suit to break the will, on the ground that the testator was not sane. There was a long and bitter legal contest ending, in 1828, in the breaking of the will, the destruction of the school and the distribution of the property among the heirs.


The friends of a better education in the community were un- willing to lose the services of Mr. Tyler as a teacher, and plans were soon matured for building the two-story brick building in Franklin village now long known as "the academy." This building was finished and occupied in 1830. The institution was chartered in 1831, as "The Instructor's School." and Mr. Tyler was the principal until his resignation in 1846.


The name of this school clearly indicates its main idea, the . training of teachers, and, so far as now known, it was the first of its kind in this part of the country. It was well supported by the community and its success had no small infinence in the carly history of Franklin.

THE ACADEMY AT ANDOVER CENTRE.


At a "sewing circle" held at the house of Samuel Butterfield, Esq., in the spring of 1848, Mrs. Butterfield made known to sev- eral of her friends her strong desire for the establishment of a school of much higher grade than at that time existed in the town. Her suggestions were favorably received and were ear- nestly discussed at that meeting. The scheme met with general approbation and plans were so rapidly matured that on June 23, 1848, the governor approved the following act of incorporation :


In the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and forty-eight, an act to incorporate the Andover Academy.


Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened.


Section 1 That Samuel Butterfield, Samuel Robbins, Nathan Kil- burn, Samuel Morrill, John Fellows, Jonathan Brown, Royal F. East- man, Dudley F. Langley, John Woodbury Jr., Otis Jones, Simeon S. Moulton, James Proctor, William Huntoon, William Proctor, William Keniston, Jeremiah S. Durgin, Benjamin F. Scribner, Peter Fifield, Silas C. Fifield, Hiram Fifield, Samuel Swett, Aaron Cilley, James Gale, James B. Dudley, Aaron Cilley Jr., Aaron Cilley 2d, Jonathan Keniston, Elisha C. Keniston, Samuel Smith, John Hobbs Jr., Andrew J. Cilley, George Sleeper, Andrew Seavey, Benjamin Cilley and Francis Currier and their associates, successors and assigns be and hereby are incor- porated and made a body politic by the name of the "Andover Acad- emy," and by that name may sue and be sued, prosecute and defend to final judgment and execution, and shall have and enjoy all the powers and privileges and be subject to all the liabilities incident to corpora- tions of a similar character.


Sec. 2. And be it further enacted that said corporation may estab- lish said Academy in the town of Andover in the county of Merrimack, for the education of youth and their instruction in useful knowledge. May erect and maintain suitable buildings therefor, and may hold real and personal estate to any amount not exceeding twenty thousand dollars, which together with all gifts, donations, bequests or legacies that have been or may hereafter be given or bequeathed to said Acad- emy may be received, held and possessed, or be sold or disposed of by said corporation for the use and benefit of said Academy, and the inter- ests, rents and profits of the same be applied by the corporation in such a manner as may best promote the interest of said Institution


Sec. 3. And be it further enacted that said corporation may at any meeting duly notified and holden make such regulations and by-laws not repugnant to the constitution and laws of this State for the encour- agement of the interest and concerns of said corporation and may ap- point such and so many officers and agents as they may think proper and prescribe their powers and duties.


142


HISTORY OF ANDOVER.


Sec. 4. And be it further enacted that it shall be lawful for said corporation at their annual meeting or at any special meeting called for that purpose to alter its corporate name and assume the name of some benefactor, or any other name, and shall still be entitled to all the favors and privileges granted by this act.


Sec. 5. And be it further enacted that Samuel Robbins Nathan Kil- burn, Jonathan Brown, John Fellows and Samuel Butterfield, or any two of them may call the first meeting of said corporation to be holden in some suitable place in said town of Andover, by posting up a notifi- cation in writing at least ten days previous to time of holding said meeting in two or more public places in said town stating the object of said meeting at which time any business relating to said corporation may be transacted.


Sec. 6. And be it further enacted that any further legislature may alter, amend, or repeal this act at pleasure.


Approved June 23, 1848.


At the first meeting of the incorporators Samuel Butterfield was chosen president; Walcott Hamlin, secretary, and Samuel Butterfield, John Fellows and True Brown an executive com- mittee.


The proprietors of the church at the Centre village transferred the second story of their building to the corporation for the use of the academy, and the necessary funds for fitting that portion of the building for school purposes were furnished by the citizens of that vicinity.


In August, 1848, the academy was opened, with Dyer H. San- born as principal and Miss Eliza Wingate of Great Falls, as pre- ceptress.


Mrs. Butterfield presented to the school enough philosophical apparatus for use in elementary instruction.


The catalogue for the first term showed the attendance of 108 pupils, of whom forty-three were young ladies.


Provision was made for four terms annually, of twelve weeks each. The rates of tuition "per quarter" were, "three dollars for common branches; three dollars and fifty cents for higher English branches and languages; drawing and painting, one to three dollars; needlework, two dollars; music, eight dollars, and two cents per week for each pupil for incidental expenses."


Mr. Sanborn was a popular instructor and the school was well patronized. IIe resigned in the spring of 1849, and in July of that year Moses Leland Morse, a graduate of Bowdoin College. was chosen principal and remained in charge of the academy

until August, 1851. Miss Louisa J. Clark of Franklin and Miss Hannah J. Sanborn of Sanbornton, were assistants during those two years.


Under the management of Mr. Morse the school prospered and the catalogue issued in April, 1851, showed an attendance of 252 pupils for the school year 1850-'51.


The courses of study were greatly enlarged under the direction of Mr. Morse and several young men, Woodbury F. Langdon, Plymouth; Luther Puffer, Sudbury, Mass., and John W. Si- monds of Franklin, took up advanced studies and entered Bow- doin College. Mr. Simonds was an assistant to Mr. Morse for one year. About this time considerable chemical apparatus was obtained and the school was materially strengthened by the income of a guaranty fund of $3,000.


Mr. Morse resigned in 1851 and Thaddeus W. Bruce, a gradu- ate of Dartmouth College, was chosen principal, with Miss Marcia E. Foster as assistant.


George Dustan, also a graduate of Dartmouth College, suc- ceeded Mr. Bruce in August, 1853, with Miss Lucy Marsh as as- sistant. The school was well sustained under the direction of Mr. Dustan: the catalogue issued in April, 1854, showing the names of 205 students. Several young men finished the college preparatory course.


John W. Allard, a graduate of Dartmouth College, succeeded Mr. Dustan in August, 1854. The fall term was broken up by an outbreak of smallpox in the village. Luther Puffer, a former student, and at one time a temporary teacher in the academy, died of the disease. The school was scattered, discontinued for more than two years and ceased to exist as Andover Academy.


The catalogues for the fall term in 1848, the fall term in 1849 and for the years 1850-'51, 1852-'53 and 1853-'54, are all of the early catalogues that the writer has found, but these will give a fair idea of what the academy represented half a century ago.


The following boards of instruction are copied from those cata- logues :

HISTORY OF ANDOVER.


The following table exhibits the five catalogues of students for the fall of 1848, the fall of 1849 and for the years 1850-'51, 1852-'53 and 1853-'54, in condensed form. The name of every student found in those catalogues is given, with residence.


Five coliunns are added, one for each catalogue or year, and an asterisk opposite any student 's name, in any column, indicates the attendance of such student in that year.


The division of the students into two classes, those studying ancient and modern languages, and those studying English branches, is maintained the same as in the original catalogues.


Several names will be found in both elasses, sinee students be- gan their studies in the English department and finally passed on to that of the aneient and modern languages. The change sometimes occurred in the same year.
