Six went to Milford High School, namely, George Batchel- der, Carrie Batchelder, Oscar E. Cram, Walter S. Tarbell, Effie A. Holt, Lillie M. Swasey; and three went to Mont .. Vernon Academy, namely, Anna M. Curtis, Clara J. Burton, and Harry Joslin.
Concerning those who went to Milford, the principal re- marked, "We like them much as students and as young gentlemen and ladies. If you have more of such in your town, we shall be glad to see them in the Milford High School."*
Rev. T. P. Sawin's last report was made in March, 1883. His successor as superintending committee in 1884 and 1885 was Mr. J. A. Woodward.
The year 1885 closes the list of those who served as superin- tending committee. A change in the school law went into effect in 1886, by which all the schools in the town came under the charge of a board of education.
BOARD OF EDUCATION.
The first board of education consisted of J. A. Woodward, B. J. Boutwell and F. B. Richards.
This board served one term, after which Messrs. Woodward and Boutwell resigned. Mr. Richards held his position and chose two others to fill the vacancies in the board, viz: S. N. Hartshorn and Leonard G. Brown. For the fall and winter terms, therefore, the board was constituted of F. B. Richards, S. N. Hartshorn and L. G. Brown.
The members of the board since 1886 are as follows :
1887. F. B. Richards, S. N. Hartshorn, L. G. Brown.
I888. N. T. McIntire, George Rose, David C. Grant.
I889. Frances H. Curtis, N. T. McIntire, S. Kate Swinington.
1890. N. T. McIntire, Frances H. Curtis, S. Kate Swinington. 1891. J. II. Goodrich, S. K. Swinington.

PRINTED REPORTS.
The reports of the superintending committee of schools began to be published in pamphlet form in 1851. Could com- plete files of these be secured, they would be of material assis- tance in our work. Previous to that date, very few of the names of teachers in our district schools are given. Hence, the names of the earlier teachers in the nineteenth century can be only partially, and so to speak, fortuitously given ; for the reason that no systematic record of such names was made. It was a matter of greater note, at least, to provide for the materials to carry on the school and make record of them, than to give the teacher's name. By way of example, the records of District No. 3, for Nov. 14, 1826, state that Daniel Putnam, Esq., was moderator, and Jonathan Putnam, Jr., clerk, and proceeds : -
Voted, "to set up the boarding of the master at auction. Daniel Putnam took the boarding of the master at 30 cents per week." One person bid off the supplying of two cord, and another the supplying of three cord of wood, at 95 cents per cord, and it was further voted, " that the school begin the first Monday in December." But the teacher's name is not on the record. Cui bono ?
But, although we cannot present as good an account of the pioneer teachers as we should like, we present some names that are not wholly obscure.
EARLY SCHOOL TEACHERS.
The names of many of the early teachers of our schools are

not at the present day accessible. Some which have been collected from a portion of the old records of District No. 3 and such other sources as were available are preserved. No records from other districts were found, and this will account for any omissions of names which it would have been a pleasure to re- port. Some of the teachers here named bore the burden of in- structing youths when text-books were scarce, and school appli- ances such as are now common either did not exist, or were very imperfect, if at all obtainable. The names of the noble band, who, while working at great disadvantage, yet wrought excel- lently for their day, deserve worthy and grateful record.
We place at the head of this list the name of Andrew Fuller and give his certificate below : -
Lynd Borough Mar. 22, 1774, this Day agreed with Andrew Fuller Es- quier to open and Keep a Gramer School only for Sutch as are to be taught Gramor. Comities being Chosen to Provoid Schools for Comon Larning for this Present year

To Andrew Fuller Esquier.
" Hurd's History of Hillsboro' County," p. 249, informs us that, " April 6, 1791, Isaac Brooks of Amherst closed a school in Lyndeborough, of ten weeks, at thirty-six shillings per week, excluding horsekeeping." A fair inference from this seems to be that he rode to and from his school. At a later day he became registrar of deeds for Hillsboro' county, an office to which he was annually reelected for nearly twenty-six years .* His excel- lent penmanship adorns many volumes of deeds in the county office, where he put himself on record as well as the deeds which he copied.
1809. Polly Dascomb, a name familiar in town.
1810. John Bruce, probably of Mont Vernon.
I8II. Sally Fuller ; but the last two weeks of term, Abigail Putnam. I suppose that this last lady was the one who is said to have taught school twenty-five years. If this is correct she taught very early in the history of our schools. She was the daughter of Ensign David Putnam.
18II. Lieut. Cyrus Lewis. It is stated that scholars came from other districts when he taught.
1814. Simeon Childs.
1819-20. Samuel R. Hall. He is said to have been a fine teacher, and to have stimulated his pupils to seek a higher edu-

cation. He afterwards became widely known as "first princi- pal of the teachers' seminary at Andover, Mass," and later be- came a highly esteemed Unitarian minister.
1821 or 1822. David Gage taught in South Lyndeborough, and married Miss Betsey, daughter of Daniel Putnam, Esq., also a teacher. After their marriage they went into Mississippi, under appointment of the American Board, as teachers of the Cherokee and Choctaw Indians.
1835 or 1836. Ephraim Knight of Hancock, later famous as a teacher of mathematics at New London Literary and Scientific Institution, and ordained as a Baptist minister at Sutton.
Charles H. Burns taught in district No. I during the pastor- ate of Rev. E. B. Claggett. He is now one of the best known lawyers in the state, and wrote for publication in the Hillsboro' county history the sketch of Milford, one of the raciest and best in the volume.
Another teacher, a resident of Lyndeborough for a few years, was Col. W. H. D. Cochrane, who died recently in Nashua, highly honored and esteemed. According to the history of the "First Regiment of N. Hampshire Volunteers,"* he enjoyed the distinction of having been "the first uniformed New Hampshire soldier who entered the Capital " at the commencement of our. Civil War.
Earlier by several years, probably, than the two immediately preceding names should be set the name of Miss Elsie M. Bales, who taught several terms in district No. 3. She became Mrs. S. F. Adams of Greenville in 1857, and died in Wilton, Jan. 3, 1905, aged 80 years.
