Mr. Sylvanus Morse, A. B., of West Boylston, com- 

 menced his valuable service in November, 1827, and sus- 

 tained the school upon its own resources till April, 1844, 

 seventeen years. Mr. Morse's long term was a great 

 benefit to this institution and to the town, nearly all the 

 children of the founders of the institution, and almost a

 wife have been recently brought from a distant residence 

 to rest by his side.
