In accordance with the evident ne
cessity of the case. Mr.. Willett's resig-
nation was accepted.
The following is copied from the
minutes of June 6:
In harmony with the general SEN
timent of our citizens, we can not fail
to recognize the earnest and faithful
efforts of Prof F. @. Willett, durirg
the past four years. to reofganize our
High School and place it upon the
firm basis of true scholarship.
Remembering his constant zeal
and untiring labor in this behalf, and
the eminent success with which his
work has been crowned-tberefore.
RESOLVED, That we deeply regret the
necessity which compels his resigna-
ton; and, wishing him a speedy
restoration to health, that VIC also
commend him, In whatever new asso-
citation he may form, as a young man
of ripe scholarship, with heart for
any work he may espouse.
In consideration of the fact of Mr..
Willett's absence. it was agreed that
the written examinations for promo
ton should be completed by the pu-
pills of the High School, and that
the usual public examination be dis
pensed with, and that the Commence
ment take place on the forenoon Of
Friday. the 10th inst.
