WAKE FOREST SCHOOL.
I HEREBY inform my friends, and others desirous of educating their children and wards, that the School near my residence will recommence on the first Monday of the ensuing year. Both sexes will be instructed in the various branches usually taught at Academies, by an experienced and competent teacher. Board can be procured in respectable families at a reasonable price; and the terms of tuition will be moderate. Wake Forest has always been considered as healthy as any place this side the mountains.
Those who may come from abroad, will be treated with kindness and attention; and every endeavor will be made to advance them in their studies. Calvin Jones.
