Last fall AL. Robinson had a box of

of pieces of money having been picked

up in front of the Hudson lot, opposite

The term of the graded school closed
, yesterday. the week being devoted prin-
cipally to the examination OF the pupils
in their studies. The result was highly
gratifying to the teachers and creditable
to the pupils. Mr.. Weed is particularly
proud of his class in algebra, every mem
ber Of which passed perfect. rating 100
| in that study. At the close of the school
Prof. Weed briefly, but feelingly, bid his
pupils good bye as their instructor and
referred touchingly to the attachment
he had formed for those under his in
struction, many of whom he had watch
ed progress from their earliest school
days to the advanced classes they are in.
Prof. Weed has been faithful and eff
cient teacher, as is attested by the pro-
ficiency attained by those under his in
struction. He says that severing his re-
lation to the school is like bidding fare
well to loved home. His relations with
the board have always been satisfactory
and pleasant. He has won the esteem Of
: parents and pupils und by giving him
self up to the management of his grow
ing business he deprives the district Of
a faithful and valued servant. We feel
that;we express the senti. -ent of the en-
tireIcOmmunity in wishinghim abundant
success and prosperity. The fact that
the board retained the other teachers is
sufficient evidence that their services
wele satisfactory and appreciated.
