BRADFORD ACADEMY

Boarding House

ducing marvels of needlework, with the stories of Rebecca at the well; Sarah and Leah ; Homeric heroines ; and family memorials; each executed with the greatest proficiency, for embroidery was an essential part of a young lady's education. Added to this were lessons in Murray's Grammar: Morse's Geography: lilair's Rhetoric ; and. for parsing, Pope's Essay on Man. Compositions were demanded, and the epistolary art was a subject not forgotten as in these days. But with the growth of education elsewhere the opportunities of other branches of knowledge were offered at Bradford; trigonometry, botany, French, elocution, were added to the programme.

The morning session was opened by religious exercises; the principal explained and commented upon the text, picturing clearly the historical point of view, as well as drawing from it apt lessons for immediate use.

Bible study was ever Miss Hassel- tine's delight, and she dwelt with the enthusiasm of the higher criticism upon the Hebrew documents which make up the story of that long-suffering' nation. Next to Bible study, she believed in the importance of reading, of reading well, and of reading good literature. This emphasis upon literary work led to debating clubs, where some such comparison as Cowper's poetry with Byron's might occupy an evening. Her interest took other directions as well; she loved clearly the stirring incidents of political campaigns, and held classes spell-bound as she discussed current events, or took them with her to the political rallies held in Haverhill. Later, when, in 1860 and 1861, political feeling ran high, the Bradford girl was most pronounced in her prejudice for or against the election of the Great President. The day following the news of the election, those who were Miss A. C. Hasseltine

disappointed dressed in the deepest mourning possible; while the majority, those whose candidate was successful, arrayed themselves in the gayest of colors, red, white and blue predominating.

Throughout the fifty years that bore record of Miss Hasseltine's devoted work at the Academy the life of the school was her life. She knew no happiness other than to serve the interests of her pupils. One of the faculty, Miss Mary E. Hlair, writes:

"In 1846 I went to Bradford Academy as teacher of Latin and modern languages. It was then and for many years afterwards the leading school in Massachusetts for the higher education of women. It had additional prestige for the fact that the first American missionaries, Ann Hassel- tinc Judson and Harriet Atwood Newell were educated there. Pilgrimages were made to the picturesque old Academy, in honor of these devoted women.

"Miss Abigail C. Hasseltine, a sister of

Mrs. Judson, was then Principal of the school, and the associate Principal was Miss Vose (Mrs. Alfred Emerson) whose ideal grace and charm won all hearts. Miss Hasseltine was an elderly woman, tall, erect, slender, and she always wore a spotless white muslin kerchief crossed over the chest. Her appearance was imposing, suggesting strength to which nothing could be difficult. The school discipline never seemed burdensome to her but was always maintained with secure and easy mastery. Her criticisms in morning talks were apt and often based on a scriptural text; an admonition against frequent visiting from room to room on 'Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbor's house lest he be weary of thee and so hate thee." 'Hast thou found honey? eat so much as is sufficient for thee,' served for a philippic against greediness.

"The School was large, its numbers were limited only by lack of accommodation, and that a house was full in those days meant that there were two persons in every room; even the teachers had invariably each a room-mate, sometimes a school girl who needed more than ordinary supervision.

"To bring the advantages of the school within the reach of moderate means the price of board and tuition was very low. The salaries of teachers, even Miss Hasseltine's, were small. Mine was $300 a year, out of which I paid my board, and only the Principal and the Associate Principal received more.

"Mr. Greenleaf frequently visited the Latin classes and was always most kind and friendly. He did not recall names readily, and I seem to see him now rushing out bare-headed, his gray locks slightly moving with the rapid motion, shaking his cane, and calling, 'Here Miss—Miss—Miss Virgil, I want to speak with you.' He always presided at the Anniversary Exercises, and some may still remember the magnificent roar with which he used to exclaim, 'Young ladies, take the pitch of your voices by mine,1 and his brief address to the graduating class with the invariable quotation 'Alps on Alps arise." Notwithstanding all that the school owed to its trustees, I always felt that Miss Hasseltine made P.radford Academy. . . .
