Our school today represents the best inter- ests of the community and through those inter- ests our school has con- tinued to add to its equipment until today ri student is given more advantages and oppor- tunities than were ever thought possible in the older schools. wa v ' fc ff?

X f M ff, Wfvvfy. ax . fe m . fo r History of The Litchfield Schools, 1853-1946 The history of Litchfield and the now forgotten village of Hardinsburg are in- tertwined in the period of the 18 5 Os. The village of Hardinsburgf was laid out on January 25, 1850 and consisted of seven- teen blocks. At the height of its growth it contained a number of residences and business houses. J. M. McWilliams and James Cummings opened stores, Cum- mings also secured a postoffice and be- came its first and only postmaster. H. H. Hood opened up a drug store. The Methodist people erected a modest chapel. In addition to these, there were a school- house, a tavern, a wheelwright shop, a blacksmith shop, and approximately eight dwellings by the end of 1851. When the Alton and Terre Haute Railroad was built to Bunker Hill in 1853 and on to Clyde CHornsbyj in 1854, the people of Hardinsburg, foreseeing that it would miss their village, began a stampede to get into Huntsville. By 185 5, when the railroad reached Huntsville, the village of Hardinsburg had ceased to ex- ist. Nor did the town of Huntsville last long, as the Post Office Department re- fused to recognize the name of Hunts- ville, and the name, of Litchfield was se- lected in honor of E. B. Litchfield, who was one of the original planners of the town. In the fall of 1853 a syndicate of resi- dents of the Litchfield vicinity was formed and they agreed to lay out a town on an eighty acre corn field. After they had reserved the necessary land for pub- lic squares and railroad purposes they were to reconvey one half of the lots and blocks. When county surveyor, 'Hardinsburg was located a mile southwest of Litchfield, just south of the present Hardinsburg School. Ten Thomas A. Gray laid out the original plot of the town in October, 1853, the railroad had only been completed as far as Bunker Hill. Gillespie, from the west- ern end of the proposed road had been laid! out the same time as Litchfield and it is said that the men in charge of the selection of the point through which to run the proposed extension of the rail- road drew straws to decide between Litchfield and Gillespie. In this contest Litchfield won, and accordingly in Janu- ary, 1854, R. W. O'Bannon made the first purchase in the proposed town, buy- ing the east half of the block facing on State Street lying between Ryder and Kirkham, for one hundred twenty dol- lars. Owing to the settlers' urgent need for housing, no time was taken to erect new buildings. Odd buildings were moved to the site of the new town. J. P. Bayless brought here one-half of what had been a blacksmithf shop at Hardinsburg, Al- though it had neither floor nor windows, his family made it do as a home for sev- eral years. In the closing months of 1854 the new town showed an actual count of six families and a dozen buildings in- cluding a blacksmith shop, a wagon shop, two stores, and a crude hotel. Within a year there were eleven residences and a population approximating one hundred. On November 24, 1854, the railroad fBig Fourj was completed as far as Litchfield and this gave impetus to the growth of the village. By the fall and winter of 185 5-1856 nearly one hundred dwellings had been either erected or moved into the town. Ground was broken for railroad shops the same year and plans Clays of 1885 'IOP ROXV: Left io Right: Professor joe M. Bowlby, T. T. Baker, Professor George Ayers, Charles Spruill. David Kinder.

Four hotels were opened in this period, namely, The Montgomery House which was later known as the Phoenix, the Litchfield House, the Cen- tral House, and the Palace Hotel. In November, 1858, a special charter was drafted for presentation to the state legislature which provided for incorpo- Eleven rating Litchfield as a city. This bill was passed February 16, 1859. The Litchfield School District was incorporated under the same charter with the city of Litch- field and with limits identical with those of the city. Schools, however, existed before 1859, all of them being of a private school na- ture.

Persons from a distance can be accomodated with board on reasonable terms. Even before the Litchfield school dis- trict was incorporated under the same charter as the city of Litchield in 185 9 there were spasmodic attempts to form a district school. On August 5, 185 7 the Litchfield Journal published the notice Sixteen It is presumed that no school house for this district will be erected this season. The tax voted in the spring will not be collected until next Winter and the sum which the trustees can legally borrow is too small to justify building this year.

In April, 1858 a school meeting in the district north of the Big Four Railroad was held at which the school directors were instructed to purchase the Disciples' Church for a school house. Preliminary steps were taken in April of the following year to complete the organization of the Litchfield school district and to place it in possession of the several funds Which belonged to it. In the charter the City Council was declared ex-officio trustees and directors of schools. The first city council acted as school directors, wielding the power of selecting teachers, offering contracts a month at a time, and desig- Seventeen P s 'Q a Clan of 1899 fx, 4 W, . ,, , , Q..

In 1864 the city council determined to erect a two-story brick building to cost not more than twelve thousand dol- lars, for a grammar and a high school building, and the council deemed it ex- pedient to dispense with the grammar school for the term of 1864-65.

The year 1865 was a time of inflated prices and inflated prosperity. The city council, instead of following the design originally chosen, formed a new plan which called for a building costing three times as much. The contract was begun and then abandoned, leaving bare walls with openings unclosed and the roof partly covered. The city council elected in the spring of 1867 took hold of the work and completed it in time to open school the following September. Litchfield. lll.. Sept. 24, 1867 Dear Cousin john: . . .

I don't think that the building can possibly be finished this week even but I hope it will for it will bring the term so late in summer. They are to have forty weeks. One term till Christmas and then two weeks holidays and an- other vacation along in the spring of a week or so.

A num- ber of private schools were opened during this interval, among them those of Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Collidge, Richard Young, and R. Hagleson. On April 1, 1872, before it was entirely paid for, the school house burned. The destruction of the building had brought the term of 1871-72 to an untimely close, but rooms were rented in various parts ofthe city for the term of 1872-73.

The new school was occupied in Septem- ber, 1873. By 1881 the primary pupils numbered greater than the seats in the schools and the pupils of Room Five were transferred to the Baptist Church. During the same year George L. Zink advertised that if a class of not less than twenty persons would provide a suitable room, fit it up, and pay all the expenses, he would teach them in a night school of two or three nights in each week during the winter free of charge.

By 1882 the new school building was no longer large enough to accommodate all the pupils, and the Baptist Church, east of the City Park, was used for classes in the fifth and sixth grades. In 1884 the Second Ward school with four rooms was erected. The school population still increased so that in 1888 an election was called and the people voted to erect a school building just north of Madison Park. Expansion of the city and an in- crease in population forced the erection in 1899 of a new six-room building at Tyler Avenue and South Chestnut Street. The same year it became necessary to rent rooms. The Kunz Building at the corner of Madison and Edwards Streets was used for the eighth grade. Later the eighth grade was moved to the Lange Building on West Union, then to the Sinclair- Baker building on East Union Avenue, and then to the Updike or Cratty resi- dence on East Union Avenue, the present site of White House Filling Station and the lot to the north of it.

Even after the high school had been in operation for a number of years an election was held April 8, 1893 to deter- mine whether the high school should con- tinue. A vote of 887 for and 256 against showed that Litchfield favored contin- uing the school. The North Litchfield Township High School which was organized in June of 1896, opened September 7, 1896 in the rooms on the third floor of the Third Ward school building Qlda Russell Schoolj.

The following year C1897j, the ques- tion of discontinuing the township high school again arose and was voted down by a majority of 130 votes. The Litch- field Monitor relates that it would be necessary that the directors make a move to erect a building as the city schools were crowded and the rooms which were this year rented to the township will be needed next year by the city. In April, 1897, school directors were elected for the Hrst time, two of whom were Colonel Dclos Van D-:usen and A. Neuber. Previous to this time members of the city council were ex-oHicio mem- bers of the school board.
