. The Arnolds’ ‘his idea of Aorder and discipline. Langstafi (CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK.) The desks and seats of this ZUXSHXzZ school house were quite, a contrast. to the desks of the present building. The first “set ” consisted of one row 0f desks around the room close to the wall. At these the senior pupils sat, facing the wall. Extending across the centre of the room w:-rc long benches, Without backs or places for the pupils" books. Here tlfif little felloWS sat dangling their feet, in mid air and facing the master, who sat at table in front of the pulpit which was at the north cod of the room. This pulpit was occupied on the Sabbath by the “travelling; preachers" oi the various Protestant denominations who happened to pass that way.‘ The first teacher in the Cover school was Mr. Benjamin Barnard, a. gentle- man from Sui-ry, England. He after wards taught for a number of years at Richmond Hill. Mr. IIaixVey followed in 1817. Klinck, Sh, father of Mrs. Law of Richmond, taught for a short time. Mr. Klinck afterwards about 181:3 kept toll gate No. "Next came Mr. .Collins an old military oiliccr and ensioner.

Mr. Pease was considered one of the best of the early teachers. lie bada rent liking for the late John Arnblgand while he was inspecting the writing of the pupils he would carry John around the school on his back. Mr. \Vade followed Mr. Pease. , Mr. Wade had some peculiar ideas. The following will show something of He made it a rule that whoever was the last" out of the schoolâ€"room at four . o’clock was to lock up the school and open it again in the morning. He brought the day’s work to a close with prayers and while he stood in front of the little pulpit repea ting° the prayer the pupils were preparing as quietly as they might for the .f' rush." ' As the last word left his lips pupils and teach- er rushed pell inell for the door. NPVPI‘ mind if forms were overturned or the small children trampled on, the object was to “get out” and that as quickly as possible. Sometimes he. - would cut the prayer/short and taking them by surprise would be out of the door before pupils wci-e aware prayers were over. This. he said, was done to sharpen the pupils’ wits. Mr. Manners;an ex-Eiiglish Church Clergyman, was appointed in 1829. Mr. Lewis Langstaff brother of Mr. John Langstaff, sr.', was teacher for a short‘ tiinein 1833. Mr. Cunningham was appointed. Some of the early teachers were. very severe. '11: those early days and for a long time afterwards many thought that the only way to reach a pupil’s . heart or brain was through the epiderâ€" mis. Mr. Cunningham’s faVorite mode of punishment was “ liorsing.” The boy to be punished was placed on the back of another boy and as the “ horse ” ran around the school-room the master followed and for cveryt step the “ horse. ” took he did his best to bringr down one Cut, with his cat/mf- nine-tails, on the " rider" or often the “ cat” was handed to a. boy who had a. spite against the boy to be punished. We have not been able to find out do- finitely what salary any of the teach- ers before Mr. Cunningham’s time re- ceived but We are told that he received two dollars'per quarter per pupil.
