WARRENTON ACADEMY UNDER G. W. FREEMAN.
HAVING engaged Mr. George W. Freeman to take charge of this institution the ensuing year, the Trustees feel it incumbent on them to state that they have taken great pains to acquaint themselves with his character and qualifications; in each of which he sustains the highest reputation.
He has been engaged for the last six years in different seminaries in this state, and they understand, has always given satisfaction to those who have entrusted their children to his care.—His character as a good disciplinarian is exceeded by none, which is deemed a great recommendation.
His emoluments depending chiefly on the success of the academy, the arrangements will be given up to him as far as will comport with the duty of the Trustees.—They can with confidence recommend this Institution to the attention of parents and guardians generally.
The buildings attached to the academy will be occupied by Mr. Freeman, who will board such students as may wish to live with him on the customary terms.
The exercises will be commenced under his care on the 1st of January next.
Prices of tuition will remain as hitherto.
By order of the Board, George Anderson, Sec'y.
