Scope and Content

1 vol. (15 3/4" x 10 3/8") This book covers Fall term 1868 to Winter term 1877. The title page indicates the book was begun in 1866, but there are no pages for that time period. Perhaps pages are missing. One page of instructions and one page of rules is followed by pages ruled off into five-day weeks with a list of subjects taught on the right side. A pair of pages was sufficient for a term unless there were more than thirty-four students, but student census in this school was well below thirty-four until Winter term 1875 when it jumped to thirty-three and higher for the rest of the book. In Winter term 1876, "Commissioner District" is crossed out and "Election District" substituted and it remains so until the end of the book. Regina Hammett identified this school as the Clover Hill School.
