The Young Ladies will be thoroughly instructed in the English, Latin, Greek and French Languages, Arithmetic, Algebra, Geometry and Natural Philosophy, Natural History, Music (Piano and Guitar,) Drawing and Needlework.
The Young Ladies will be received into the family of the Principal, and treated in all respect as daughters, and their intellectual and moral natures cultivated with the anxiety, devotedness and affection of a Parent.
The business of the School will be conducted under the superintendence of the Principal, assisted by competent Instructresses, and no pains will be spared to promote the interests of the Pupils. The expense of the entire course is $85 per session, exclusive of Music and Drawing, for which the usual charges will be made. Those who may wish the English course alone will be charged $85 per session. It is requested of those, who intend patronizing the School, to make their intentions known as soon as possible, that suitable arrangements may be made.
