College
(Continued from Page 1)
died a year later of a disease called "bilious fever".
But, before his death, the head master had accumulated
some degree of wealth and popularity. He had also,
affected the lives of the students who had passed
through his classrooms.
One such student wrote him in a letter received a
short time before his death, "...twas you, sir, who not
only informed me how essential a good education is but
taught me by..-.perserverence and pecular (sic) applica
tion to my study I might after no lengthy space of time
reap the Golden Harvest, and who gave me so many
valuable precepts whereby I might attain the Goal of
Decency and Decorum...".
As testament to his growing wealth, is the following
written in a friend's diary in 1808: "Mr. Dickinson has
acquired a very decent little estate since he first came
here four years ago. He thinks himself between six
and seven thousand dollars. The first year he had about
seven hundred dollars-the next, the avails of his school
1000 dlls-the next they amounted to 1500 and the last
year 1200. Besides this too he pays an Usher (Mayhew
from Williams College) 300 dlls. But he has improved
opportunities to speculate by lending some 600 dlls
cash to a young sportsman and taking a bond for 1000
dlls. Till lately he owned a house and farm of more
than 300 acres, six slaves, and a quantity of stock, as
horses, sheep and cattle. Lately he sold his land for
4000 dlls. which was 1000 more than it cost him. He
now keeps a Gig, two horses and a servant or two and
designs in the spring to visit Conn. in this style".
The foregoing plainly shows that Matthew Dickinson
was not only an outstanding teacher, but a shrewd bus
inessman as well.
At one time he was invited to dine with Governor
Turner and other prominent people including the British
Consul.
He was also known to possess one of the most ela
borate libraries in this section, frequently ordering a
large number of .books from William Boykin of Raleigh.
He was referred to as a teacher of great ability and
many talents and also as one who gaVe full attention to
his students. The Raleigh Register of September 21,
1809 said, "Mr. Dickinson was a very highly and very
deservedly respected by all who had the pleasure of
his acquaintance".
Undoubtedly the first courses of study at Franklin
Academy were set up by Dickinson. They included the
three "R's" and Ethics and Metaphysics, Latin, Greek,
Hebrew, Italian, French, surveying, Astronomy and
navigation. Qtaf and public examinations were given
and parents and Trustees were present.
Dickinson > buried near Corinth Church, between
Louisburg and Warrenton. The inscription on his tomb
atone reads, "Sacred to the memory of Matthew Dickin
son a native of Somers, Conn, a graduate of Yale Col
lege and first Preceptor of Franklin Academy, a man of
talent, learning, and virtue. Obt. September 17, 1809.
Aged 29 years.

Ayden Next:
29 Down, 2 To Go
By Clint Fuller
Times Managing Editor
As in. the alphabet, Y follows A. This has been the
way of things throughout the basketball season. "A" as
in Ayden has held the number one spot in the rankings in
the East; "Y" as in Youngsville has stayed in second
place.
Admittedly partisan to Youngsville, we still couldn't
see the difference in the two games played at Durham last
night. Ayden had its hands full' in downing a defense
less Cranberry (Avery County), 67-62. Although the
Tornadoes looked impressive to us, Youngsville looked
better .
The Dream Game comes Friday night at 7:15. Number
one Ayden will get a chance to prove it. Youngsville
will get the chance to change the alphabet. Four of the
Tornadoes scored in double figures ih their game Wed
nesday night. Paul Miller had 23 points; Tony Dai I had
12 and Hubert worthington and Louis Tripp each had 11.
It appears the Tornadoes have a well-balanced team,
much like Youngsville. Ayden will have to set up some
defense against Larry Paschall after his 41 point effort,
which Ayden watched with admiring eyes. Doing this,
the Tornadoes will leave another Phantom open and,
knowing how the Phantoms work, there will be anothei
one there to take up the slack. Youngsville has generally
enjoyed at least four starters hitting in double figures dur
ing the season and seemingly they have taken turns on
who would be high scorer. Obviously, Wednesday night
was Larry Paschall night. Whose night will Friday be?
