Montgomery Superior Court, April Term 1880. A. G. Fate, J. S. G. O. C. TO THE OKA BCD JURY OF MONT¬ GOMERY COUNTY—-APRIL TERM 1880. Mr. Eoreman & Gentlemen: In presenting this my third annual report I br.ye nothing of a novel character to claim your attention. There is a sameness in tbe working of tbe Free Schools iu this county that savors of retrogression instead of advancement. Tiie interest in education is not so euthnsinstio as it was a few years ago I know of no reason unless tbe pay of first class teachers is inadequate and does not justify , a residence in onr county. Learning must have centres from which it emanates and these centres illuminate smuikr ones the university supplies the Colibgev tfhe college the academy »ud thc'aoadiMa^ small eehools the ■LJigehiW lessening! uintil its rays sfe sctreeljr distinguishable from common iguorance. The Board with the view to suit an; emergency passed a resolution that the Free Sobools may be tang tit at anytime, the trustees and members of the board in the district conouring. The Attention of teachers lias been called to the latter pert «f Sec. l«' 0 f :hi' school lew; The C. % C. must haye dMeWm wfcjlrti to make Ms report if the report is 1 abt made the fund for the county tnapba withheld. During the year 1879 we bad appeacanUy 32 schools 27, white and 6 oolored. The acoouhts ’ pl^seuted by teachers amounted to $2253,58. Receipts were ns followsFromState, $491.23; Polls, $705.48; Total,_ 1196.71. County School Comdl&ibnets allowed $69.00. Net paid teaohers &iii*y;8L which paid 50 per ecut of the demands against the fund. For tbe ameuntogetd indivedual teachers I refer you. bpqomble body to the book herewith sehesitted tbe term for which Hon. Jphn McRae end myself were elected 1 engicM now Md it becomes yoar dutp to elect eiMtesaon. Respectfully Submitted, J, L, MAOtHESKS-AJ. SL0.
