Excerpt from Antiquarian Papers, 1879-1885, Vol. 1
IT appears from our Records that there was a Grammar School set up in ye vear three years after John Winthrop the younger, With his twelve companions commenced a settlement in this place. This School was probably not a free school according to our acceptation Of the expres sion, as there does not appear to have been auv public provision made for its support. It was kept by Lionel Chute, who died 1644, after which cv ent there does not appear to have been any pub lic school untilthe establishment Of this institu tion. To the benevolence and personal exertions of robert payne, aided bv' his brother illiaiii Payne, William Hubbard and a few others, we are indebted for the endowment of this establish ment.
