Scope and Content

1 folder (9 5/8" x 11 3/4") The Dents were part of Charlotte Hall School from the beginning; George Dent was a member of the first Board of Trustees and Rev. Hatch Dent was the first principal of the school. Eighteen members of the family attended the school. In 1883 the Dent family created a trust fund which funded the building of Dent Chapel on a corner of the school grounds. Even though the school is closed, the chapel is still in use. This folder contains a copy of the Sentinel, the school's yearbook, for 1913. It appears to have belonged to John F. Dent, who was in the fourth form that year.
