THE HISTORY OF THE NEW BERNACXDE-
At the legislature of .1760 Governor
Dobbs made the "(proposition that the
Vestry in each - parish should raise a
sum to pay a parish clerk and register
who should be able to act as a. school
master and in the absence of the clergy
man as rjeadar. ,This sum-was raised
but borrowed for military purposes and
never paid back, consequently the school
money was never, refunded. But in his
address to the General Assembly 1764
which met in Wilmington he again said
that the people of North Carolina should
have an Academy. It was at this ses
sion of the Legislature that an act was
passsed for the erection of a school and
residence for the school master. :. One
of -fal two lots that had been appro
priated to the Episcopal Church in 1740
was set apart for ; these purposes and
the services of Mr. Thomas Tomhnson
were engaged. From 1764 :nntil 1766
New Bern was without a school 'house
as it va not until Monday Nov. 15th,
1766 that Mr. .Codgell asked for permis
sion to bring in a bill to establish
school house in New Bern. On Nov. 12
1756 Mr. Caswell according "to order
brought in a bill to establlst the school
house. . He read this bill which was af
terwards delivered in at the Table and
then again read by the Clerk, passed
and ordered to be sent to the . Council.
As I have said before the first effective
act for the erection of a school house in
New Bern was J764. x This school was
the first Incorporated academy in North
Carolina and was incorporated 1766. At
a great expense the first large and com
modious building was erected. On July
l,20767-thi8 building which was made
of wood 45 feet in length and 30 feet In
width and situated on New Sb, between
Hancock and. Metcalf , was not near fin
ished. Jt had already Cost three hun
dred pounds and the money- that 'had
been raised for building this school had
been entirely expended and the building
was only enclosed, but through a mis
sionary whose name was;' James Reed,
the money was raised so that the Boors
might be laid and the chimneys built
After the building was completed Mr,
Thomas Tomlinson was appointed the
first school master. Nine trustees
appointed and were as follows! Richard
Caswell, Abner Nash, John Right Stan
ley, William Blount, -John ; Sitgraves,
Spyers Singleton, William Byran ana
Richard-Dobbs Speight , The resolu
tions passed were. That the school
master must be a member of the church
that taught in this building,
But turn we to the classic school,
Where science holds her transient rule,
Where culture trims the tender shoot "
And grafts the stock with future fruit,
The mansion daily gathers there .

of England, that the ' trustees should
visit the school one every six ' months
and examine the students, and that cer
tificates should be given to. those who
left the school, but that they should not
grant degrees or titles, sneb si the de
gree of bachelor or master' of arts or
doctor In any faculty, that the school
should be called - New . Bern Academy
and the land that was owned by the
Academy should go toward supporting
the school. , The 20 that was paid the
school master per annum and the 20
for the assistant teacher was raised by
putting a tax on the spirituous liquor that
were imported through Neuse River, at
four pence per gallon, Mr, Mackartney
and Mr. James McCartray were assist
ant teachers to Mr. Tomlinson. in 1768.
Education was not neglected during th.
revolution for in the North Carolina Ga
zette of July -4, 1778 we find this adver
tieemen; VMr, Joseph Blyth has opened
school tat the public school House .anj
will teach Latin, English,, antln.cti
geography, geometry, trigonometry and
sevsral other of the most useful branch
es of the mathematics according to the
best snd moet approved methods."' Also
in the same paper, Mr. George Harrison
advertises a school for instructions in
the English snd French languages.
The Assembly sometimes met in this
building. This school which rested for
some years under Die incubus imposed
by the eatublahed ecclesiastical oligarchy
was accidentally burned down in 17'.
A few scattered atones on the eaat cor
ner of the Academy Green are all that
remains of tliia nol.le old building.
Afterwards by an act of the Aimem
hly a room in the Talnce was untd for
the school room. In l't!Kj the preaent
old l.rii'k Academy was erected, the

Though architecture has not spread
Her splendor's round the tyro's head. ?
This amusing verse about the school
was written by Mr. Stephen M. Chester
1818.".. - .
Gaston, Stanly, Badger, Speight and
Hawks who were distinguished sons of
Horth Carolina were educated in this old
building. During the first part of the
Civil war rthe school was run by the
Northerners, but later used as a hospi
tal for both sides. It was through Prof
B. Johnson that the people of JSfew
Bern were made to realise that another
building was needed. Prof. Johnson did
not stay to see the work finished, ; In
1884 our middle building at he cost of
9,000 was built' Mr, Price Thomas was
Principal and the first brick was laid by
Miss Ladra $uter. .Thia building faces
Hancock: street and has eight large
rooms, an office and two halls, over the
office; is erectedlthe . belfry in which
hangs the bell that has called the chil
dren to school during the school months
for i about if twenty years.
Adamst Hodgers, MendenhaU, Foust,
Harding and Mr. Craven have also fill
ed the high position as principals of this
school. It was during Mr. Foust's stay
that the two schools, for before they
were separate schools were made one
and called the New Bern Graded
Schools. r:vv '.k ),;- i -, :t
In 1904 the foundations were laid for
another building. - This modern building
which was erected at a cost of $10,000
has four rooms, aq office and two halls,
also has three entrances, the main en-
rance facing, Hancock street. This
building was designed and constructed
with a View to future enlargement
which can be easily done by the build
ing of four mora, rooms on the West
end. If New Bern continue to grow
Oils addition win be; necessary, in the
course of a few years.; Such is a brief
sketch of the NewlBern Academy, and
the educational beginnings which re
sulted in its organization.' It has made
splendid record in the past and may
