South Lancaster (Mass.) Academy

SOUTH LANCASTER ACADEMY opened Wednesday, September 18, with the largest attendance in the history of the school. On Tuesday evening, the night before school opened, all the rooms in our ladies’ dormitory were full, and there were fifteen young ladies who were unaccommodated, even though we had used the fourth floor and the reception-room. We hardly knew what to do. It seemed that the Lord had poured us out a blessing that we did not have room to receive; however, he helped us to receive it, for we rented a cottage in the village, which will accommodate about twenty young ladies. We feel that the Lord’s hand is in this. The same crowded condition prevails for our young men. We had a very enthusiastic meeting at our opening exercises. Many of the students had returned from their canvassing work during the summer, full of zeal and courage. We look forward to a splendid school year.
