HISTORY OF AN ACCOUNT BOOK.


In 1752 a School Teacher began keeping his accounts in it. He entered on the debit side the charges for teaching the children. Heading the page with the name of the parent. The teaching appears to have been in the vicinity of The Half Hollow Hills and Huntington, as these names are entered after the parents name. We can determine in a measure the character of the peoples' occupation by the articles that were sold to the teacher. Money was very scarce in those times and the teacher was obliged to trade out his bill. If he taught for a farmer, he bought grain, for a shoemaker he bought shoes or had mending done.

This account appears from the credit side to have been with a tavern keeper, as the credits are all in that line.


The account with Cobus Lawrence makes quite a curious showing. The teacher received "Drinks" for a portion of his bill. It also shows who was treated, what they had to drink and how much was paid for it and the names.

of Adrian Hegeman 2d. He uses the vacant spaces where any were to be found, in keeping his diary. There was no regu- larity in his making the entries as the different dates were scattered all through, down close to the binding; up the date columns and in the dollar column and over the head lines.


Frederick Rowe, Adrian's grandson, now seems to have become the possible holder. He was a good penman and he illustrated the work with pen and ink sketches of Indians, bears, horses and also ships. One page devoted to ships was a marvel of penmanship. Page after page the human face was pictured with just about three or four marks of the pen.


Its next owner was Elbert McQueen, who was the great grand- son of the 3d Adrian Hegeman. Elbert added nothing but good care and from his sisters family, the compiler was allowed the pleasure of making a copy. The 3d Adrian had a brother Petrus who succeeded to the farm and he added a number of pages to the original book and continued the diary after the death of his father.


During the time of Petrus a cider mill was built on the place (see Diary) about 1797 and up to 1820 was very generally pat- ronized by the farmers, some fifty names appearing on the account of the cider mill. This crude record appears in the book:


"The oners of the Cider Mill concluded at a meeting 13 May 1817 that it where proper for the hole of them to carry in the account of Cider made to the mill, to Mr. Hegeman, and each pay for making."


The farmers brought the apples to the mill and made the cider and paid 3 pence per bbl to the mill owner. Aron Van Nostrand had a general supervision and a statement of receipts shows there was due him when the above resolution took effect "Due Aron on his part 17s 4d."


SCHOOLS &c.


Religion and instruction went hand in hand among the Dutch.


The Lords Prayer, Creed, Decalogue, morning and evening prayer, grace before and after meals.


897


A DOCUMENTARY HISTORY.


The schoolmaster took the lead in setting and singing the psalm & Hymns and read the Commandments at the morning worship and the Apostles creed in the afternoon. These were all prepared in the Dutch language and continued so to be until about 1790.


It was not until after 1776 that the school house appeared to have place. Then they were located in some God forsaken place and as an old writer says, where beans and buckwheat would not grow.


The school master was poorly paid and one of them remarked " 'Tis little they pays me and little I teaches 'em." "He boarded around" and continued to do so until as late as 1850.


The early school house was a very plain structure. Those of this people were a simple box like building covered with shingles and unpainted.


Inside a small platform at one end, the desk was one continu- ous one around and fastened to the side of the room.


The seats were long wood benches. All the scholars sat with their backs toward the centre of the room.


The one in mind had a square cast iron stove which was put in a box of sand to prevent the floor from catching fire.


Goose quill pens were the only kind known, and the master was or had to be an artist in penmaking.


These are two of the copy book headings of Catherine Luyster's paper Aug. 7th 1809.


"Riches serve a wise man and rule a fool."


"Young men go to death but death goes to men."


This Catherine was born in 1797 and on July 4th, 1879, she writes a letter to her sister Phebe the wife of Adrian Luister a portion of which is copied as follows:


"Sometimes this hot weather I feel so weak and feeble I can hardly get around. I sit in my own room most of the time. I hear so little about what they are saying I may as well be alone as not.


"Sometimes I think about old John Robins where we went to school. He went with his hand behind him talking all the time to himself, so I do the same thing sometimes. I went with James L. Hoogland two weeks ago to hear Rev. N. E. Smith

preach. I could hear every word he spoke. His winding up was so good, it was like manna to the Soul."


PRINTED CIRCULAR ISSUED BY GEORGE FIELD.


To the Inhabitants of Cedar Swamp &c:


Before I leave a neighborhood where I have met with so little to render it in any way agreeable, I think proper in my own justification, and as a caution to all who may succeed me, to state to you the unhandsome manner in which I have been dealt with. I sought nothing from your generosity. I asked no favor of you-but I expected justice, but your prejudices were stronger than your justice and I can only protest against such partial & unequitable treatment and leave it upon record that others more liberal may judge between us, or that Public opinion may shame you in future from such unjust prejudices.


I was engaged to teach school at Cedar Swamp for six months with the expectation of continuing twelve, unless there were any just grounds of complaint. I brought with me a most ex- ceptional testimonial from my last school in every way satis- factory, backed by the most flattering testimonials from the places where I had lived in England from a child, vouched by a Minister & Merchant of high standing in New York; I produced specimens of my writing; twice underwent the ordeal of exami- nation before the inspectors, which the District has appointed and all perfectly satisfactory, and yet the Inhabitants refuse to send their children to the school. The question is asked why? Hear the answers.


Minerva, listen,-Thomas Underhill (a trustee) writes to me thus; "I rather thee would not give quiet as long lessons untill I see thee." I presume he was afraid his daughter should spell as well as himself. The lessons were accordingly abridged. The next complaints from that quarter were "Thee must not let the children use steel pens .- none of them. Thee must not let the Friends' children use compliments to thee." Then came Isaac Downing. "If thee lets Samuel use compliments to thee I must take him away." Then Edward Frost-"I understand my children use compliments to thee, if thee will consent to teach

them to say to thee Friend Field and forbid them to say Sir & Mr. and will let them write in the afternoon as well as in the morning, and use undressed quills &c I will let them come, " in addition I received the following "Respected friend G. Field. At this time it is attended with some difficulty to pay much attention to the Learning of our son Marshall his lessons this season of the year therefore will please to omit it for the present it is my wish that the attention should be to reding writing & spelling, and tables &c they Friend E. L. Frost." I presume he would teach them Spelling and Grammar himself! Next Peter Luyster's son had too long sums in addition to do, the poor Child could not reckon so high as 70 or 80 he must have shorter sums; then Andreas McQueen's boy had too hard a lesson and Jacob Willis' little girl must only say her lesson straight on, and her brother must not write his Grammar, not perform his task, and Wm. Willis' children had better have no lessons just now, and they must not learn Grammer, or Geography; Joseph Hegaman's children did not know their lessons so they were kept from school. Epinetus Nostrand's boy was to do as he liked, and if corrected was to run home. I will undertake to teach (If not interfered with) reading, writing, spelling, grammar, ciphering, geography, &c., at least as well as any District School Teacher within a hundred miles of Cedar Swamp. Here then is the ground of offense and defence. I would not be dicticted to by people utterly ignorant of the principles of Education yet having the conceit to think themselves qualified to instruct a Teacher in his duties. Not one can present anything like a reason for dissatisfaction and they know it well, but they shall be remem- bered in my orisons "Father forgive them; for they know not what they do." To those who have done their duty they have my thanks, they need no more, the consciousness of doing right is itself a blessing. I shall bear you in remembrance a thousand miles to westward.


Farewell, George Field


Sometime Teacher at Cedar Swamp, L. I. October 20th, 1838


The first school house in Cedar Swamp stood near the great oak on the farm afterwards owned by Peter Luyster and now

owned by Townsend Bailey. It was next located in the lane between Peter Luyster's corner and Aaron Van Nostrand. This building was sold to Gideon Frost and moved to his farm and converted into a "tenant house." It is yet standing.


The third one was built about 1850 on its present site.


It was in the first one where the meetings of the Debating Society were held and where the letter issued by Teacher George Field was inspired.


No record of the attendance has been found, but a general idea as to the names of the children may be gained in Field's letter.
