The Andover, Mass. Townsman of May
Goth, has a long and highly appreciative
notice of Miss PhiIena McKeen, daughter of
Rev. Sias McKeen formerly of Belfast. She
died in Andover May 18th at the age of Is
years, We take the following extracts
Miss Mckeen was born in Bradford Yer
mont. OF her good parents, of her gifted
sisters and brother, of the beautiful home
life, stern but inspiring, much might be said.
Miss Mckeen honored her father and mother,
and from them early learned those lessons
of thoroughness and tireless energy which
marked her whole career. Her father, the
Rev. DR.. Silas McKeen, man of unusual
strength OF character, guided and supple
mented her instruction in the schools, and
was a constant example to his children.
Miss Mckeen taught with success in Bridg-
ton, Me. at College Hill, Ohio, and was
called to the principalship of Abbott Acad-
emy in 1859 Although thirty-seven years of
age when she came to Andover it seems as
though her real life work began here. Ger
tain it is that her character and her capabll~
ities Tor extraordinary usefulness developed
richly in her new work. Able principals
Abbott Academy had had before her, but to
Miss Mckeen it was granted, during thirty
three OF stewardship, to make vigorous effort
for the increase OF the school in things ma
terlaI, mental and spiritual, and we rejoice
to-day to know that she lived to see some of
the fruits of labors, for who but God can
measure the whole harvest. Twenty years
after Miss McKeen and her beloved sister,
Miss Phebe, came to Abbott Academy the
school celebrated grandly its semi-centen-
nial. That year the History of the Academy
written by the two sisters, gave to the world
an inspiring record of what had been already
wrought. On Monday, May III,
her body was borne to the McKeen Rooms i'll
Draper Hall, which We're beautiful with
graceful palms and exquisite flowers, ar
ranged by loving hands, and there friends
met to praise God for this faithful friend and
counsellor, this wise aud good woman"
The interment was at the old home in
