sometimes overcome, rather than invigorated, at the gymnasium, and were unfit for study for some hours afterward. The final result of this attempt to introduce this system of exercises into our colleges, schools, and cities was a general failure. Colonel Higginson speaks of this gymnasium on the Delta as being in existence in 1830, but thinks there was nothing left of it by 1840, and he is sure that when he graduated in 1841 there was nothing like a gymnasium existing in Cambridge. In 1843 or 1844, a private gymnasium was established back of Wyeth's store on Brattle Street, in an old building which formerly stood where Lyceum Hall now is, originally used as a court-house. It may be interesting to note that this building forms part of the rear of the Whitney building on Palmer Street, where forty years later (in 1883) the writer opened a gymnasium for the students of the Harvard Annex, as it was then termed. This private gymnasium was conducted by a man named T. Belcher Kay,
John Livermore, who was a member of the school committee as early as 1843, had girls as well as boys from its start. It was not convenient ofool for five years, drew its pupils mainly from Cambridgeport. In 1843, the Otis schoolhouse, quite a magnificent structure, was completed were teachers in the Female High School of Old Cambridge. Thus, in 1843, the three sections or wards of the town had each its high school, whe suggestions of that record, we learn from the school committee of 1843 that show exhibitions are injurious, as striving for appearances morfor juvenile romances and cheap newspaper novels. During the year 1843, it appears that the school committee made five hundred and eighty-tstaking and in spite of the admonition of the town, the committee of 1843 overran their appropriation by $263. Cut your coat according to youndike, which, previous to 1861, was the Otis,—the school which, from 1843 to 1847, was known as the High and Grammar School of East Cambridge;
Quincy Street where Mrs. James Fiske's house now stands and lived there many years, but afterward moved to what is now called Buckingham Street, where he died. Another famous Cambridge editor was Theophilus Parsons, Dane Professor of Law at Harvard, but also founder and editor of the United States Free Press, and for several years engaged in literary pursuits. William Lloyd Garrison, of The Liberator, lived in Cambridge, on the northwest corner of Broadway and Elm Street, from 1839 to 1843, and did some right good editorial work during that period. John Gorham Palfrey was one of the editors of the Boston Daily Whig, the precursor of the Free Soil press, about 1846, and was one of the editors of The Commonwealth. Robert Carter, who was also one of the early editors of The Commonwealth, had previously aided James Russell Lowell in editing The Pioneer, a short-lived magazine. And Lowell himself in 1848 was corresponding editor of the Anti-Slavery Standard, editorial corresponde
econd floor. The bank remained there until 1870, when the brick building, which it now owns and occupies, was erected. The young institution prospered. In less than a year it paid a four per cent. dividend, and its stock was at a premium. In 1843 an attempt was made to wind up its affairs, but the attempt did not succeed. The bank reorganized as the Cambridgeport National Bank in June, 1865. Dr. Chaplin, the first president, died in October, 1828. He was succeeded by Deacon Levi Farwein Scribner's Magazine in 1873, he says: When we trace back the chain of causes which led to the construction of the great Washington telescope, we find it to commence with so small a matter as the accidental breaking of a dinner-bell, in the year 1843, at the Phillips Academy, Andover, Mass.
