Excerpt from Remembered Events: Concerning the Life and Services of Benjamin Brown Thompson, as a Teacher of Common Schools, Academies, Institures and Popular Singing Schools, in New Hampshire and Massachusetts, for Nearly Half a Century, or From 1827 to the Year 1875; With Brief Notice I wish simply to state that I have been repeatedly urged, within the last few years, to write a history of my many schools, and my connection with them, on the supposition that such a work would have an extensive circulation among my many pupils and personal friends. I have at length consented to employ a gentleman, [mr. John W. Moore, of manchesterj to chronicle some of the remem bered events concerning my life and services, as a teacher of Common Schools, Academies, Institutes and Singing Schools; interspersed with Remarks concerning School Teaching, and Music Teaching; with some brief notices of persons and things in the various towns where I have had schools; and by particular request I have con sented to the publication of some of the addresses delivered by myself at the close of my schools, upon the subject of Music. From the opening of my first day school, in 1827, it has been my ambition to keep a good school, and where it was possible to do so, to introduce Music as a branch of common school education. I have lived to see the ideas I tremblingly advanced, in the early days of my teaching, fully endorsed by the best living educators and teachers; and to know that Music is now one of the regular branches of study in most of1 our Academies, High Schools and Institutions of Education.
