The list of Moody's pupils includes several men who helped serve and die for their country's freedom. Major Andrew McClary fell on Bunker Hill attempting to stem the flow of British troops leaving Boston. Captain Frederic Fry was an officer in the Continental Army under the leadership of George Washington. No name in the traditions of the school is more famous than that of Commodore Edward Preble. He led a fleet of U.S. ships against the Tripolitan pirates who had been menacing commerce of the high seas. Tobias Lear had been for many years the able secretary and close friend of George Washington. He also distinguished himself as a skillful representative of his country in the Dominican Republic. It was he who ultimately negotiated with Tripoli the treaty with the United States. Meanwhile, The President of Harvard College was Joseph Willard 5 another Dummer graduate. The three most important professorships on his faculty were held by David Tappan, Hollis Professor of Divinityg Eliphalet Pearsn, Hancock Professor of Hebrew and Oriental Languages 5 and Samuel Webber, Hollis Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy. All were graduates of this great Academy. Within the first decades after the birth of the United States, men like Rufus King, Samuel Sewall, Samuel Osgood, Theophilus Parsons, Tobias Lear, Samuel Phillips, David Tappan, Eliphalet Pearson, Samuel Webber and Joseph Willard played an important part in contributing to the growth, strength, and wisdom of the new nation. This they had in common, but also they all had, in their youth, gone to the Dummer School where they had studied under the famous Master Samuel Moody, the first Preceptor of the School. We, the Senior Class, respectfully dedicate the 1976 Milestone to these outstanding Alumni and all who have followed, for their exceptional contributions to this great country of ours. Inside the Red schoolhouse. Samuel Moody's cane and watch, the British flag, the Bible box and the student slate boards. Moody's desk stands in the center with the school bells he rang for silence. 5
