Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1891-03-23

No. 2. Now the other parties want a
still longer article published, which claims
that the school house was broken into,
the teachers property destroyed, etc, and
that the arbitration at Barton upheld the
teacher in the expulsion of the boys and
gave her the right to finish her school.
Now so near as we learn from the
statement of both parties there was not
a great deal to the matter at most. The
committee hired a teacher of excellent
who had taught the same
school twice or more previously, the dis
trict at large approving of the selection.
Some trouble outside of the school was
not calculated to do it any good The
large boys, three or four of them, began
to give the teacher more or less trouble
which grew until the teacher felt she
could not endure it. The boys were eX-
PEELED, and, later there was an attempt
made between the teacher and committee
to settle matters, the boys to prom
Use better behavior and return. Then
there was an arbitration by agreement
when it was decided that the boys should
not return to school without the teachers
consent, and that she should beep out the
school The teacher returned and there
was a general talk and commotion which
did injury to the school. The teacher
claims that the drawer of her desk was bro
erty. The committee had no knowledge
of the breaking into the house. Finally
the teacher concluded to quit the school.
The parties in this matter are respectable,
and we should not hesitate to believe any
of them; but they are at present in d
stew over this matter which ought to
have died in infancy. The reputation of
the teacher is such that she will not Suf-
fer because of little trouble in school.
The boys are boys and probably did as
boys are liable to do. The friends and
others interested can not afford to keep
trouble going over this matter. Let it
stop here. EDITOR.
