Excerpt from Expenditures and Receipts of the Town of Exeter, N. H., For the Financial Year Ending March 1, 1873: With the Reports of the Treasurer of the Robinson Female Seminary, the Town Library Committee and the Superintending School Committee
Mr. Stearns, the Principal of the Seminary, has striven diligently to make the changes of teachers as little prejudicial as possible to the school; and by his rare ability and tact in the management of an institution of such extent and varied character, has entitled himself to the confidence and high ap probation of our people. And we can justly award equal commendation to the entire corps of instructors, who have, without exception, labored diligently and successfully to im part knowledge to their pupils, and to give a high tone and repute to the Seminary.
There have been connected with the institution during the year, 252 students, of whom 71 were in the academic-prepar atory,'136 in the academic and 45 in the collegiate depart ment. Of this number all but 39 were residents of Exeter. To the lowest grade 24 were admitted, their average age be ing about 11% years. The tuition of three students from oth er towns has been remitted on account of their limited means.
