,-, -urn Intersection of Liberty and Main Streets ln the Village of Arcade in the e r 1864 Y 2 Courtesy of Grant Hodge HUTES FHUIH THE PHST The following historical notes on Arcade s Schools, gleaned largely from the t b k f no e oo o Mr Harry Douglass, tell the story of the growth of Arcade s educa tional facilities They tell this story, we must admit, in a rather sketchy mann er, but brevity ls necessary to cover the span of years treated Sallent events have been noted together with, here and there a dlgression to cust d oms an char acterlstics of a period These facts could be woven into a smoother narrative but t hat could be accomplished only be a story of much greater length The pages given to these glimpses into the past are connected by a note at the bottom of each page indicating the next page on which the notes are continued 1811 Rebecca Parker was teaching in the first school of the Town of China fthere is no record of the location of the building, but it was somewhere ln the vicinity of what is now Arcade Centerj 1813 Joel Dutton was teaching ln Chlna's first village school - a log hut At this time, a Deacon Walter Hunckley had his Temperance Tavern in about the location of the present Post Office. The village fArcadeJ at that time had no name, it was sometimes known as The Settle- ment or Hlnckley's Station, having been a stop on the stage lines. There were scattered farm buildings and possibly a general store near the site of what is now the corner of Liberty and Main. In this same school building, the town's flrst Sunday School and church services were held. 1813 - Aprll - At a Town Meeting of the Town of Sheldon Qlncludlng at that time the present townships of Arcade, lava, and Sheldonl, three inspectors of common schools were appointed: Walter Hinckley, Israel Klbbe, and Simeon Welles. This ls the earliest mention of any school officials ln what are now the towns of Sheldon, lava, and Arcade. NOTES FROM THE PAST continued on Page 5. 4 Q. f ,. f' 1 ,. 'A Q . V ' . 7 '. , tb 'va .'
