did buildings of cultured Athens were
never put into their walls by nobler
motive or a gre alter sacrifice OF time
and money than were these rough
granite stones, put into their places
by the hands of a poor, but deter
mined man, giving his life TO advance
sound education and promote true
scholarship.
With the completion and by the aid
of this dormitory the academy in
creased in numbers and influence and
was for many years the foremost
sch DOL of the county. The local his
torian, whose article enlivened nv
interest in The old stone house and its
builder, goes on to say in his homely
style, "a catalogue of the fall term of
1929 lies before me as I write. Look
ing it over find that there were in
that term fifty-seven young men.
Running over the names, l find FIVE
who have since graduated from col
lege, five Who have become preach
ers, five, at least, who have become
lawyers, two physicians, two Judges,
several legislators, many merchants
and business men, and of large
number of them l have no present
knowledge. Nor is there any reason
to suppose that this was any larger
or better term of the school than
many others" Thus did the school,
under the management of this un-
usual man, go on year after year until
finally the funds became so divided
that they amounted to nothing, and
the health of the master begin
ming to fail, the academy soon dwin-
died and died, so far as being an in
stitution and vital force was con-
cerned. When it's long time master
was stricken with illness in October,
1866, the living days of the school,
such as they had been, were over. It
never had another principal and it
soon ceased to exist, save only as a
village school, and as a cherished
memory in the minds of many who in
the early days were its students. = -
The old stone house shows many
indications of the good use it served,
and mutely tells a suggestive story to
tie. Its walls and stone doorways, it's
halls and window Lodges, are covered
with many initials and dates; it's
doorsills of stone are so worn in the
centre that kitten can crawl under
the heavy panelled door when it is
closed. There are names written on
its walls of men who have become
prominent in their state and, through !
their record in the civil war, and their
business success, known in several
other states in the Union. One, re-
turning a few years ago to visit his
early. home and the friends of his
sehooldays, came in his private pal
ace car, he being high railroad Off
cial in western state.

his career, and excellent and valuable |

"a WAS the school he may be SAID to
have made, thei n::ssicu wes long
AGO fulfilled and both are now practi-
callv forgotten in the rush of present
times and the changes they have
brought. The flight of time and the
advance of progress has wrought
great changes in the fortunes of the
once important village, as it has In
those of many others of the land, the
birth of new towns and institutions
being at the cost of the old ones.
The closing words of the quaint, his
torical article in the old Gazetteer are
the exact story of many other villages
throughout New England. They run
thus: s'Mr. Twilight died in 1857.
The railroad ere long took the stages
and most of the business from the hill.
The school as permanent institution
ia gone. But the old granite house
will stand in silent loneliness, per-
haps in emptiness, for centuries to
come. a monument to tell the changes
of time and of the character and
works of one of the most able and in
fiuentiaI men who ever. labored for
the good of Orleans county. Scat
tered over all the county, and filing
stations in every department of use
full service, are his pupils to perpetu-
ate the fruits of his labors, and to re-
member with gratitude and pride,
while life lasts, their old preceptor."
This was written in 1867, and of
course but few are now alive who re.
member the academy even in the
very last years of Mr.. Twilight's prin-
cipalship.
Since the death of Mr.. Twilight and
the cessa ton of the academy the old
stone house has stood desolate and
lonely, but never quite empty Until
she died, which was not till several
years after her husband, Mrs. Twilight
lived alone in the house dwelling with
almost sacred tenderness on the scene
made so dear by his life and work, in
which she was ever most intensely in
sympathy. Within my own memory
two old ladies have occupied few
rooms on the ground floor and kept
up a little flower bed between the
front door and the low picket fence
that separates the house from the
road. When [ last visited the place
with an interested friend summer
ago, one old woman instead o: two
feebly showed US into the hall and
bade us go where we chose, and when
we had finished our tour Of the low,
scanned, and empty rooms, so full of
history, talked brokenly, but with
much interest, of the old house and
her recollections of it's builder.
Standing today on the brow of the
hill at the top of the street that climbs
sharply up and looking across TO the
old stone house and downward over
the quiet and nearly deserted village,

one could hardly realizs that the place
once presented such a scene as it did
ntty and sixty years ago, when the
academy bell woke the echoes of the
suent country round and students
tnronged from the boarding hall or
the school yard, when the heavy
stage with it's four horses and load of
passengers and mail bags dashed up
twice day in front of the postoffice
ana hotel, and the little hamlet was
1ull OF stir, hustle and life. Now the
oroWsy stiffness of the August after
noon is broken only by the hum of
1he oees and an occasional sound
from the sleeping fields or some of
the inhabited dwellings, and the scene
Is enlivened by nothing more than

the top of the street to be lost to view
IN some doorway or by turn in the

A couple of miles below in the valley

OF lively fourishing village with its
nigh school, library and other accom-
panlments of progress and culture.
But when this was an unbroken will
derness Bloomington Hill was a CEN
tire of education and industry, and
the hrst settler of the valley, sleeping
IN his unfinished log house, was sur
prlsed when on waking late one morn
ing he heard bell ringing in the dis
tance. He wondered at the fact and
set out to find the settlement ad
vanced enough to have bell. It was
the Bloomington academy bell sum-
monlng its fifty students to the build

Is seen at intervals the glistening raj
of railroad track, and light trail
of smoke just visible in the distance

dozen that pass daily. When this too

Bloomington hill was echoing to the

Such are the changes time and pro-

to the old stone house standing on it's
lonely and deserted hill, save to make
it empty and silent, and full of history
