We hoped to have had time during
the present term of school to drop in
and see how the new principal, Prof. |
Redmond, was getting along; but the
term as well as the time has passed |
rapidly by and we find the duty, like |
many others in this life, neglected.
Upon inquiring, however, of those
who have called upon him in his school,
we learn that it has been a success
that good order prevails; that his
methods of instruction are excellent,
and, more than all, the students and |
teachers entertain mutual respect anu |
regard each for the other. 1t gives US
pleasure TO note this, and no doubt
our citizens will be pleased to learn
that our Academy is under such good |
management.
