Brothers of the Sacred Heart
Brown donated a private road to the Town of Huntington in 1930. It was renamed Browns Road in his honor. Brown could not keep up with the maintenance of the mansion and sold it in 1939. Brown died on October 3, 1964 in Huntington at 86 years old. At the request of Bishop Monsignor Thomas Molly, the Brothers of the Sacred Heart bought this property to establish a boarding school and summer retreat. It was founded by Brother Martinian, S.C., Provincial Superior, and was named in memory of Father André Coindre, the founder of the Brothers of the Sacred Heart. The school was intended to generate funds for the formation and education of young Brothers. It operated under the supervision of the Brothers who have been active in Christian Education in the United States since 1847. The boarding school operated by the Brothers of the Sacred Heart closed on June 30, 1971 due to lack of teachers. At the time of its closing there were 116 students who boarded there five days a week.
