Originally it was called Franklin Acad emy, but later this-'name was dropped for the • more, pretentious: one named above. - . . Commencing with the fall term of tssl I spent some three years there, which were among the most pleasant years of my life: Uncle Lyman, as the student: attectionatelv called hiM, ; was a faithful instructor, looking after the mom: a . well as the intellectual, tultMe of s pupils. His occasional evening l''ectu:es opened wide avenues of thoUght aid Atirred in us ambitions, which undoubt, edly did much. in shaping many a future career. His course of lectures on the '--Crusaders was,: : peculiarly instructive. While describing those terrible 3 - ears, Which lengthened into centuries, a .d learnedly-explaining - the motives of t er the Hermit and other leaders wt.° were instrumental in throwing such e vast hordes into the Orient in wave after wave of slaughter, in order to rescue the, Holy sepulehre from the lilOslemi- he drew lessons of instruction from each event and showed the final outcome to on the whole, beneficial. - Mutual ac -quaintance and commercial intercourse softened asperities, - - and pointed, al though- feebly, to the . .final" outcome of all progress—human brotherhOod. • • Then, there were our secret societies— Amphictyon, alpha mathean—the latter composed entirely. of ladies; the two former ee..tirely of gents, for the sexes were not allowed to visit each - other except on•sp:cial occa sions; this rule was steadily enforced. The.Eps. and Attphics. were of course, in friendly nvalfy, each striving to ey eel the other, especially at the public e hibition. At 'tne close of each fall ai winter term these societies took the.: turns in these exhibitions; when origini songs,,speeches ancl — coloquies': wes publicy given. Then, at the close the summer term in early July, bot united ilia general exhibition, assistet by the Philomatheans. The late Justice - McCollum was always a leader in these public functions, writing songs ar "color - mice' for his society, the Amphics "The Enthusiast and Misanthrope' given. at one of his society's exhibitions was a play 'worthy .of preservation ar a wider audience. -Then, at a genes exhibition he gave - "The Maine.Liqw Laws" and -at another "The Kansa: Nebraska Bill." "Uncle Tom's -Cabin" was dramatis fe,ir us Amphics, by Julius Tyler, ata, other annual exhibititin, which gave • great prestige, and swelled our heads belieVe we were "it." In this "coloquy the Philomatheans were in full partner ship with us,of which we felt very prcud Those were halcyon days, for life was new and flowr:y fields stretched out fore us in limitless expanse.
