'sTwinsburg Institute"

Always with yen to be teacher,
Samuel Bissell came to the Portage
County woods with his parents when
he was nine years old-in 1906 when
the wilderness was being cleared
out. He was a Connecticut Yankee.
Young Bissell was educated at Yale
then became a Congregational
preacher at Twinsburg, present
Summit County, where he also began
to teach school. That was in 1923 and
Bissell's school was a rude log house
20 by 80 feet with three small win
dows, each with four little glass
panes. The stools, benches and desks
were home made. After la years he
gave up preaching and devoted him.
self to the school only-the Twins
burg Institute, Bissel called it.
The school was free to all who
wanted to attend it-except to those
who wanted to pay, in which event
tuition was two dollars a term. The
school was a success. After three
wears a combination school house and
church was put up and in 1843
large, two-story frame building was
secured and after five years two
others were added to it.
By that time the school had attain
ed a good reputation and had about
300 pupils, mostly from outside OF
Twinsburg. Seven teachers were en-
ployed and students, when they so
desired. were fitted for college.
Ordinary tuition then was 81 term
and when the classics were taught,
never more than four dollars. No
charter was asked nor obtained and
no public money was given-the
school rested solely on the shoulders
of one man-Samuel Bissell.
More than 5000 students, male and
female, attended the institute during
its continuance up to 1881 when
survey Ol It's pdSt "aS ''~'
does not mean that the school ended
then. It did not. The student body
included later ministers, statesmen,
generals, lawyers professors, ply
sicians, artisans in all parts of the
country. Among them were about
200 Indians-of the Seneca, Ottawa,
Pottowottomie, Ojibway and other
tribes.
Among the latter was George
Wilson, a Seneca, who became widely
famous. He became chief of his tribe
and was sent 10 represent them in
the New York legislature.
Another Indian student Mack-a-de'
benessi, called by the white people
jackson Blackbird, was an Ottawa
and a direct descendant OF Pontiac
He eXcelled in composition, com
posed a three-hour comedy that large
audiences proclaimed great success
and became a brilliant intellectual
Like Wilson, who secured several
thousand dollars from the New York
Historical Society for relief of his
starving people in the West
Mackadebenessi was a credit to the
school.

Bissell became known throughout
the Western Reserve for his
philanthropy in the cause OF Indian
education. From the Indians the
institute received no compensation
worth mention. Ali their expenses
including board, tuition, room, fuel,
light, washing, books, stationery and
some clothing, toaling about 5000 a
year each, /were borne by Bissell.
These figures amounted to about
$4,000 during the history of the
institution. Almost as much was spent
on INDECENT white youth and the cost
of the various added buildings in
cluded brought the amount up to
about $1,000, mostly paid by the
schoolmaster himself. To offset this
not more than $4,000 ever was re-
ceived from all sources.
Outbreak of the Civil War almost
ruined the institution. Several of the
buildings were sold to pay its debts
but out of the wreckage BisseH saved
few hundreds Of dollars, borrowed
81 500 more and put up a stone build
ing, doing much of the manual work
himself. He put on the roof, made
the doors, window frames and other
parts himself-then a man seventy
years old. The entire cost was about
SS, 900. So Twinsburg Institute went
on.
The last knowledge the writer has
of the institution was as of 1881
when Bissell was over 80 and almost
penniless. He still was teaching and
was compelled to keep it up for a
living. Twinsburg Institute then stood
on crumbling ground, liable to fail
| altogether when its venerable
principals hand became removed by
| death.
| Nearly IS years ago came the enc
of Twinsburg Institute and with II
rest for the superannuated school
master who had given his life to it
| and q free education to those who
most needed it. Hic Jacet Samuel
Bissell-rest in peace.

The Hancock county districts would
probably encounter financial difficult
les in maintaining an adequate pro-
gram If they operate independently,
Hollis report stated. 1t said they
would probably be beset with the
money problems which plague many
small districts, probably no later than
December 81, 1889.
The state board of education has
been in the practice OF cutting ITS
payments to smaller school districts,
which effectively pushes them down
the road to consolidation.
The Citizens committee report of
May q said that over 80 percent of
the persons contacted in a county
wide survey were opposed to further
school consultations.
Location Of the local schools does
not make consolidation an economical
measure, the report said Location OF
the present buildings would make 1t
necessary for many students to ride
buses for longer times each day than
the state department of education
prescribes.
They also felt that number of the
schools had possibilities of reaching
the 240 enrolment figure which the
state has set as its minimum criteria
for recognized high schools.
The state report recommended
Liberty Benton board OF education
sell only part of the S344 900 school
expansion bond issue which the
voters approved this May.
They felt the school should only
spend enough to provide satisfac
tory elementary school al the present
location. The bond issue would pro-
vide for construction of six class
rooms, cafeteria and gymnasium
auditorium
Liberty-Benton is the Liberty high
school-Benton Ridge grade school
district which the county board con-
solidated in 1854 The other school
consolidation in the county is the Mt
Cory-Rawson high school consolida-
ton which was completed in 1949.
