IS would further the present arrange


the trustees Of the academy, still they
must fearlessly perform their duties.
Will you not charge the school COM
mittee as criminal If they do not obey
their trust under the law? He said the
committee does not ask favors from
the trustees, but did not propose that
the trustees should have entire charge
Of the high school pupils He asked for
no amendment for the motion that the
committee might do as they see fit.
Leicester Academy is a sectarian in
under their ideas, and asked
no one to decide against one class or
question his citizenship.
Rev Samuel May asked: "Who has
ever heard any one that is responsible,
question the reverend gentleman's citi-
zenship2" He said that all classes ought
to be united on religious subjects, and
thought it wrong to bring religious diff
ferences into the subject.
A general discussion followed ON the
amendment, in which Rev. Samuel May,
Rev. Nathaniel Seaver, Rev. j. +. Redi-
can, Rev. D. c. Reid and II. B. Watts
took part The report was finally ac-
cepted, with the amendment that in the
opinion of the town, the connection of
the high school with Leicester Academy
should be continued as formerly, with
full regard to the interests of all parties
involved, provided that all things be
done in harmony with the law.
The remaining reports were accepted.
