FIVE TEACHERS IN MRS. FALKENER'S SCHOOL, 1808.
The Summer Vacation commences on the 13th of June next. 'Tis the request of the Subscriber that the Pupils may not be kept at home longer than the time prescribed, which is a fortnight. She takes this opportunity of obviating a report, which must have been circulated for some sinister purpose, "that it is impossible for oneperson to superintend so many scholars,” by assuring her Patrons of the Public, that there are five persons (besides the Gentleman who teaches musick) daily employed in the tuition of the Pupils confided to her care.
May 23, 1808.                                                     Sarah Falkener.
P. S.   Having lately made a considerable addition to our Buildings, there is room for the reception of a few more Young Ladies.
