FOREWORD IN the summer of 1879 the writer who had lately completed his course as a pupil at the Kentucky School for the Deaf was re- quested by the then newly appointed Superintendent, Mr. David C. Dudley to examine and sort out several basketsful, of old letters and papers that had accumulated in the school office during half a century. The bulk of these papers I found of no value but scatter- ed among them were letters and papers of the greatest interest from the light they threw on the early history of the school. From these I took copious notes which I later embodied in a history of the school which was published in 1892. Since that date the school has grown very much larger and the approaching centennial of its foundation makes appropriate the publication of a new edition of the history and to this end I have for some years diligently sought all data that would throw further light on the subject. My object in writing this history has been not so much to write an interesting and entertaining narrative as to put on record all facts in regard to the inception, establishment and growth of the school during its first century that I have been able to ascertain so that those who in future years may be interested in the subject will have a reliable source from which they may obtain the inform- ation they may desire. To this end I have been at great pains to in- sure accuracy. My sources of information have been the annual re- ports of the school; files of the school paper, The KENTUCKY STANDARD; official records in the State Capitol and the Boyle Court House; contemporary letters and documents and my personal re- collections. Where, in the few instances that tradition or hearsay was the source, the fact is so stated. The work has been a labor of love and a testimonial of the deep affection that I, in common with practically all its former pupils, entertain for the Kentucky School for the Deaf. CHAS. P. FOSDICK. Danville, Ky., April 11, 1923. This page in the original text is blank. History of the Kentucky School for the Deaf ON the tenth of August, 1816, there landed from a vessel arrived in New York harbor, two gentlemen whose coming was destined to open for the deaf of America a new and brighter era. One of these gentlemen could hear, the other was deaf; the first was Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet, the second Laurent Clerc. The story of how Gallaudet was first interested in the deaf and their education by his meeting, in her father's garden, with Alice Cogswell; of his visits to England and Scotland and the rebuffs he received at the schools in those countries when he attempted to visit them and learn their methods of instruction; of his arrival in Paris and the cordial reception and assistance he received there from the Abbe Sicard; and finally of his engaging Sicard's best pupil, Laurent Clerc, to accompany him to America and assist him in his new enter- prise has been so often told that we need not repeat it here in detail. April 15, 1817, the first school for educating the deaf in the new world, the American Asylum, at Hartford, Conn., was opened for the reception of pupils. The number of the deaf in the country was then considered so small that it was expected that this one school would provide educational opportunities for them all, hence the name, Ameri- can Asylum. But it was soon found that their number was so much larger than had been supposed that additional schools were necessary so in 1818 the New York School was established and two years later that at Philadelphia was founded, while in 1823 the Kentucky School, the fourth in order of establishment but the first one west of the Atlantic sea board, was set in operation. The conception of a school for deaf children on what was then the far western frontier, in a country but lately redeemed from the wilderness, may be said to have sprung from the love and devotion of a father for a favorite and afflicted child. Sometime after the close of the Revolution but prior to 1788, John Barbee of Culpepper County, THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Virginia, removed to Kentucky and settled at Stony Point, three miles north of the present site of Danville on the road to Lexington, where he built a house that is still standing and occupied. In the immigra- tion from Virginia he was accompanied by his six sons, Thomas, John, Daniel, William, Joshua and Elias. The father and all his sons had served in the patriot army during the Revolutionary War, Elias being, when he enlisted, but a boy of fourteen. John Barbee died in 1895 and his sons removed to other sections. Elias settled in Green County, Ky., where he became a prominent citizen, representing that district in the Kentucky House of Representatives 1809-12 and 1825- 27 and in the senate 1821-23. He was also a General in the Kentucky militia. He died in October, 1843. General Barbee's favorite among his children was his daughter Lucy, a beautiful and attractive girl who had been deaf since early childhood. This naturally interested the father in the deaf. He learned of two other deaf children in his home county, Jabez Gaddie and Eveline Sherrill and he also learned of the establishment of schools for the education of the deaf in the eastern sthtes, so he deter- mined to secure for his own child and other deaf children in Kentucky similar privileges. Being then a member of the Kentucky Senate he introduced therein the bill that established the present Kentucky School for the Deaf. The bill creating the school was drawn by Judge John Rowan and was introduced in the Senate by General Barbee on Saturday, October 26, 1822. It was at once referred to a committee composed of General Barbee and Messrs Robert B. McAfee and Matthew Flournoy; On October 28th this committee was enlarged by the addition of Thomas B. Carneal and William B. Blackburn. On November 19th General Barbee reported the bill from the com- mittee. It was read the first time and ordered to be read a second time. On November 21st it was again brought up, read a second time and referred to a Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Commonwealth. On November 26th it was again brought up and on motion of General Barbee the Committee of the Whole House was discharged from further consideration of the bill and, it having been engrossed, it was read a third time. The bill was then for some reason, recommitted to a committee composed of Robert B. McAfee, John J. Marshall and Elias Barbee. The next day, November 27th, they reported it without amendment. It was 4 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF read, put on its passage and passed. Yeas 20. Nays 13. Yeas, Richard Ballinger, Elias Barbee, Jeroboam Beauchamp, Peter Barrett, Granville Bowman, Wiiliam B.

It was then resolved, "That the bill do pass and that Mr. Barbee inform the House of Representatives thereof." On December 5th the bill was introduced in the House of Representatives. On motion first and second readings were dis- pensed with and the bill, together with a petition from David C. Irvine, was referred to a select committee composed of George Shannon, David C. Cowan, John Rowan, David Murrey, and George Robertson. December 7th, Mr. Shannon reported the bill from the committee without amendment. It was ordered to be read a third time but the reading was dispensed with and it was at once passed. Yeas 57. Nays 22. Yeas, Mr. Speaker (Richard C. Anderson), Tandy Allen, Absolem Ashby, James M.

The same day (Saturday, December 7th) Mr. William Buckner from the Committee on Enrollment reported that he had examined the enrolled bill and found it correct, whereupon the Speaker signed it and Mr. Buckner was instructed to inform the Senate thereof. The Lieutenant-Governor, William T. Barry, then signed it and it was at once taken to the Governor, John Adair, who affixed his signature, making it a law. In this connection a story has come down from the early days of the school to the effect that among those who voted nay on this bill was one man, who for some reason was strongly prejudic- ed against the idea of instructing the deaf and who not only voted against the bill but worked hard to prevent its passage. Some years later the child of this man lost its hearing and the father was forced to bring it for education to the very school whose establishment he had so strongly opposed. The act incorporating the school reads as follows: CHAPTER CCCLXXXXI An Act to endow an Asylum for the Tuition of the Deaf and Dumb. Whereas, It is desirable to promote the education of that portion of the community, who, by the mysterious dispensation of Providence, are born deaf and of course dumb, and experience in other countries having evinced the practicability of reclaiming them to the rank of their species, by a judicious and well adapted course of education-it is represented that many philanthropic citizens would contribute to promote an object so benevolent and human, if this Legislature would cooperate, by affording pecuniary aid, and designate a mode by which the gratuities devoted thereto could be effectually applied. Therefore Sec. 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the Com- monwealth of Kentucky; That the Trustees and their successors of the Central College at Danville shall be, and they are heresy author- ized and empowered to receive by legacies, conveyances, or otherwise, lands, slaves, money and other property, and the same to retain, use 6 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF and apply to the education of the deaf and dumb within this Common- wealth, and to any amount, the interest, profits or proceeds of which shall not exceed the sum of thirty thousand dollars per annum. The institution shall be located in Danville, in Mercer County, and supported by the donations and legacies of the charitable, by such aid as the Legislature may be pleased to afford and by the money to be received for the education of children whose parents, guardians or friends are able to pay. The Trustees of the Danville College and their successors in office, shall have power to appoint a teacher or teachers, president, treasurer, and all other officers that they may think necessary, and remove any of them at pleasure, and make such by-laws as they may think necessary for the interest of said asylum. There shall be a committee of twelve ladies selected by the trustees at their first meeting, and their places filled from time to time, as they may happen from death, removal or resignation, to aid in the management of the asylum, under such provisions as may from time to time be prescribed by the by-laws. The funds of the institution shall be under the management of the trustees, subject however, to such restrictions as shall accom- pany the grant of aid by the Legislature; and it shall be the duty of the trustees for the time being, to present to the speakers of the Senate and the House of Representatives, respectively, annually, within the first week of their session, a statement of the funds and expenses of the institution, and of the number of children received and educated therein, during the year immediately preceding and of the parts of the state whence they have come, distinguishing be- tween those who have been supported gratuitously. Indigent pupils resident anywhere within the state, shall be received into the asylum, maintained and educated gratuitously, as far as the funds of the institution will admit; Provided, that where more children shall be offered for the benefit of this institution than can be received at any one time, the trustees shall so apportion their numbers among the several counties of this Commonwealth, accord- ing to their representation when application shall be made, that every county may equally receive the benefit of the same. Sec. 2. Be it further enacted; That in order to aid the funds of the said asylum, the governor is hereby authorized and required to draw his warrant on the auditor of public accounts in favor of the 7 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF trustees of this asylum, for the sum of three thousand dollars im- mediately; and moreover, shall draw his warrant on the auditor in favor of said trustees, for the further sum of one hundred dollars for every indigent pupil taught in said asylum, which shall authorize the auditor to draw a warrant on the treasurer for the amount directed in the governor's warrant, which shall be paid out of any money in the treasury not otherwise appropraited by law, and charge to the school fund; Provided that no one scholar shall be taught at the expense of the state more than three years; and provided also, that the sum so drawn from the treasury, for such tuition shall in no one year exceed the sum of two thousand five hundred dollars. The passage of this act marks an important step forward in the education of the deaf, for while the existing schools in Connecti- cut, New York and Pennsylvania had been established and largely maintained through the efforts of benevolently inclined individuals and societies the Kentucky school was, from its first inception, a charge of the state, it thereby being recognized that educational privileges were due to the deaf children of the Commonwealth as much as to the hearing ones. It was however expected that the state appropriations would be largely supplemented by gifts from the charitable. This expectation was never realized and from the beginning of its existence the Kentucky school has been maintained by the state as a part of its public school system. After the passage of the act the Trustees lost no time in beginning their work. Early in January, 1823, they met and prepared to put the school in operation. A two story frame building that stood on the south-west corner of Main and Fourth streets, opposite the site of the present postoffice, was rentedandfitted up forthe recep- tion of pupils. This building stood until April 15, 1876, when it was destroyed, with a number of others, in the big fire of that night. January 23rd the Board engaged Rev. John R. Kerr and wife as Superintendent and Matron of the boarding department. By the system then inaugurated, and which prevailed down to 1854, the pupils were not boarded by the school but by the Superintendent personally. He provided all furniture and necessary supplies and paid all the living expenses, while the sums paid by the state for the support of indigent pupils and those paid for board by pay pupils went to him and any profit that might ensue from the arrange- ment was his emolument, he receiving no salary.

THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF which was copied from the Hartford school, which in turn had copied it from some of the eastern colleges, was a throughly vicious one, since it made it to the interest of the Superintendent to feed the pupils as cheaply as possible, and for that reason it was in after years abandoned. The most perplexing question that engaged the attention of the Trustees at this period was how to obtain a teacher for the school. The few persons in the country who had had practical experience in teaching the deaf were all engaged in the eastern schools and none could be secured for the new school in the west. Dr. Gallaudet had recommended that a young man be selected and sent to Hartford where he might familiarize himself with the methods there employ- ed. But this would have taken considerable time and the Board was anxious to begin at once the work of the school. On the 6th of December, 1822, a petition had been presented in the lower House of the Legislature from one, David Caldwell Irvine, praying that an appropriation be made to enable him to teach the deaf of the state for one year. This petition was referred to a committee but as the House on the next day passed the act to establish the Dan- ville school no action was ever taken on the petition. Irvine then applied to the Trustees for employment, and believing from his re- presentations that he was qualified for the position, they appointed him teacher. But in a short time he was discovered to be an impost- or and, to quote the language of the first Report of the school, "Cir- cumstances occurred which made it the duty of the Trustees forth- with to discharge him." April 10, 1823, the first three pupils, Lucy Barbee, Jabez Gaddie and Eveline Sherrill, all from Green County, entered the school. Two more came in May, while others dropped in at in- tervals, until by November there were seventeen present. The roll of this first class is as follows: Name Barbee, Lucy Gaddie, Jabez Sherrill, Eveline Machen, Rebecca Morehead, William Railey, Martha Lewellian, Edith Lewellian, Moses Age 24 16 12 27 13 21 13 15 Residence Entered Green Co.

As will be seen more than half the class were mature men and women; one was thirty years old, another twenty-seven, two were twenty-five, while five more were over twenty-one. The day of education had dawned too late for these, they could only gain a glimpse into the promised land wherein their younger compan- ions were to reap the harvest of knowledge. The last known sur- vivor of the class was Eveline Sherrill, who died in 1900 at the age of eighty-seven. At the Reunion of 1891 she was the guest of honor. John Goggin and Samuel Strickler died in 1825, Lucy Barbee made her home with a married sister in Taylor County until her death about 1850. William Morehead was living in Rockcastle County in 1853. Narcissa Fowler was killed by the cars at McKenzie, Tenn., in 1881. John Hoke lived in Jefferson County until his death in 1884. Barney McMahon was the first deaf employee of the school, having served as a supervisor from 1826 to 1831. William Grissom farmed in Adair County until his death in 1878. He married Kitty Ann Pile, who entered the school in 1825, in 1830. This was prob- ably the first marriage between our former pupils. Thomas Hoag- land was a shoemaker in Lexington until 1882 when he removed to Florida where he died a year later. Of the remaining members of this first class nothing is known. The school had opened but no teacher had yet been secured so the superintendent, Rev. John R. Kerr, having the pupils on his hands, was obliged to undertake their instruction himself. Little is known of Mr. Kerr but he must have been, as his portrait that hangs in the school chapel would indicate, a man of no mean ability and scholastic attainments, for although he was entirely unacquaint- ed with the methods of instructing the deaf in use in the eastern schools, he was yet so successful as a teacher that, to quote from the 10 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF first Report of the school, "the progress of the pupils has exceeded our most sanguine expectations." At this time, however, any results in educating the deaf, however meager, would have excited astonish- ment for, to quote again from the first Report, "The novelty of the experiment to communicate useful knowledge to persons deaf and (dumb, and thereby restore them to their proper rank in the scale of beings. has by many persons in the country been considered a doubtful one, and by some believed impracticable. But facts remove all doubts and disbeliefs on the subject." In the mean time the Trustees continued their efforts by correspondence with the eastern schools to obtain a trained and experienced teacher. This resulted in the engagement of Mr. Dewitt Clinton Mitchel, a son of the president of the New York School, who had had one year's experience in teaching in that school. He was engaged in May, 1823, at a salary of five hundred dollars a year and board with traveling expenses to Danville. He left New York for his new post in Kentucky soon afterwards and then disappeared. Months passed, nothing was heard of him and much anxiety was felt both in Danville and New York as it was feared he had met with an accident or foul play. Finally, in September, a letter was re- ceived from him, dated at Baltimore. It seems he had stopped in that city on his way to Kentucky and finding it and its society very attractive, had remained there having a good time until his money was all gone. More funds were sent him and he resumed his journey, arriving in Danville October 6th, and at once beginning his work in the school room. At this time the following advertisements were published in the Western Monitor at Lexington, Ky. (From the Western Monitor, of Lexington, Ky., April 15,1823.) KENTUCKY ASYLUM FOR THE TUITION OF THE DEAF AND DUMB. Danville, Ky., April 15, 1823 It is with satisfaction we are authorized to announce to the public that this benevolent institution went into operation on yes- terday. We are desired to state that a few more pupils can be ac- commodated if application is made immediately. For the satis- faction of parents and relatives wishing to send pupils to this in- stitution, we are desired to announce that the institution is under the immediate care and superintendence of the Rev.

(From the Western Monitor, of Lexington, Ky. ) KENTUCKY ASYLUM FOR THE TUITION OF THE DEAF AND DUMB. Danville, Ky., October 6, 1823. The Trustees have the satisfaction to inform the public of the arrival of Mr. Dewitt Clinton Mitchel from the New York Asy- lum; and that he has commenced teaching the Deaf and Dumb in this institution. Mr. Mitchel has been employed as an instructor in the New York Asylum between one and two years, with some of the best teach- ers in the United States. The Rev. John R. Kerr who has heretofore paid so much at- tention to the pupils. will continue to give all convenient assistance. We, therefore, consider the institution in complete operation; and that the hopes and wishes of its patrons, and of a humane public will be realized. Parents or others, who may be desirious of having deaf and dumb children or relatives educated, are assured that the utmost care and attention will be paid to them by the Rev. J. R. Kerr and Lady, Superintendent and Matron of the Institution. The terms of admission at present, in the currency of the country, are as follows: Boarding, washing and lodgings, per ann. 100. Tuition per annum. 40. Pupils will furnish their own slates and stationery, amount- ing to two or three dollars per annum. Children whose parents or friends are unable to pay for board and tuition will be received and educated at the expense of the Government, except the expense of clothing, which is expected to be furnished by their friends. BENJ. P. PERKINS DAVID C. COWAN JAMES BARBOUR WILLIAM MILLER EPHRIAM M'DOWELL JEREMIAH FISHER Superintending Committee. 12 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF The Editors of newspapers in Kentucky and the neighboring states, are requested to give the above a few insertions in their papers. The school seems at this time to have been the fashionable fad in the little town. Many visitors came to gaze and marvel at the spectacle of "imparting useful knowledge to persons deaf and dumb," while the Trustees divided themselves into monthly super- intending committees who made daily visits to the school and there was also a committee of twelve ladies to assist in the superintending. A few months' trial of Mr. Mitchel satisfied the Board that either temperamentally or from lack of training he was not fitted to satisfactorily fill the position of principal teacher, so they began to cast about for one better qualified. There was at this time among the students attending Centre College a young man of seventeen, John Adamson Jacobs, and on him their choice was fixed. The posi- tion of assistant teacher was offered him and accepted. He at once began work in the school room but a few weeks' experience therein convinced him that to be a successful teacher of the deaf it was essen- tial that he learn the methods of instruction employed in the older schools in the east. The Trustees advanced him funds for this purpose to the amount of 968.00 and he set out for Hartford, Conn., making the trip on horseback and arriving there August 15, 1824. His reception at the American-Asylum by Rev. Thomas H. Gallaudet and his assistant, Laurent Clerc, was most cordial and he had no difficulty in arranging for a course of instruction in their methods. They informed him that it would require three years to fit himself to take charge of the Kentucky school. The funds at his command made such a prolonged stay out of the question so he determined to do the best he could with the time and means allotted to him. He took private lessons from Mr. Clerc at forty cents an hour and his entire time was spent in the school- rooms and in company with the pupils. Even his meals he took with the pupils, whose fare he naively states in a communication to the Board, "while substantial is by no means luxurious." He re- turned to Kentucky in September, 1825, riding the same horse that had carried him east. He brought with him the following letter: Hartford, Sept. 20, 1825 To the Directors of the Kentucky Institution for the Deaf and Dumb Gentlemen:-Mr. John A. Jacobs, being on the eve of his departure for Kentucky, I will candidly express my opinion of his 13 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF qualifications. He came to us some fifteen months ago, I may say as a gentleman of excellent talents, exemplary character, and liberal education, but wholly unacquainted with the art of instructing the deaf and dumb: now he leaves us, well stored with a knowledge of our language of signs, and well initiated in all the secrets of our system: therefore I do not hesitate to recommend him to you, gentlemen, as a suitable person to be at the head of your institution, and I feel confident of his ability, not only to fill up the outlines that we have pointed out to him, both in our public lectures and private lessons, but also to afford ample and useful instruction in the various departments of knowledge to the deaf and dumb. Now, gentlemen, allow me to tender to you, individually and collectively, my personal thanks for your generous exertions to promote the temporal and spiritual welfare of my unfortunate brothers beyond the Alleghany mountains, and to add my prayers for the prosperity of your institution. LAURENT CLERC. Mr. Jacobs. on his return to Danville, found the school in a demoralized condition, the pupils making little or no progress. He at once set about the task of instructing them with such zeal and success that on November 12th the Board appointed him Principal of the school. Mr. Mitchel, in high dudgeon at their action at once tendered his resignation, which was promptly accepted and he returned to New York. Of his subsequent career nothing is known. By an act approved January 7th, 1824, the Legislature had increased the per capita allowance for state pupils to one hundred and fifty dollars, had appropriated three thousand dollars for the purchase of suitable buildings for the school and had authorized the admission of pay pupils from other states. On January 28, 1826, the Board purchased of John Tompkins ten acres of land and a house for five thousand dollars, three thousand down and the balance in three months. The house was a brick dwelling, fifty by fifty two feet, two stories high, containing eight rooms two halls and an attic. It stood on Second street, on a site directly in front of the south half of the present boys' building. To this building was removed, from the rented house on Main street, the officers and female pupils, the boys occupying as a dormitory a small brick cottage of two rooms that stood over on Third street, and which, after being vacated by 14 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF them, was used as a cobbler shop until some time prior to the war when it was torn down. The Tompkins house was added to in the rear in later years but the original building remained unchanged un- til it was demolished in 1880. April 26, 1826, the Congress of the United States granted to the school a township of land. This was located in Florida and Arkan- sas and from sales of land a considerable sum was realized, though not nearly so much as might have been obtained by better manage- ment by the agents in charge of the sales. Full details as to this grant will be found in the chapter devoted to the subject. In Septem- ber, 1831, Mr. Jacobs, accompanied by one of his pupils, visited Nashville, Tenn., and gave an exhibition before the Legislature of that state. As a result of this visit a number of Tennessee pupils were sent to the Danville school, there being at that time no other school for the deaf in the south or west. Every southern state except Florida and several northern ones have sent pupils to the Kentucky school. Louisiana was especially generous in providing for her deaf children, not only paying their board and tuition fees but their cloth- ing and traveling expenses as well. In all eighty-three pupils have been received from other states, as follows: Louisiana twenty-two, Tennessee eighteen, Alabama fifteen, Mississippi and Missouri five each, Indiana and Texas three each, Arkansas, Illinois and Montana two each, Ohio, Virginia, West Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina one each. These pupils appear to have been exceptionally bright as was to be expected since the expense of sending them to school in a distant state would have precluded send- ing any but those who were especially intelligent. As showing how little even those best informed realized what the growth and increase of population in this country would be, it is interesting to note that Mr. Jacobs. in a communication to the Board in May, 1831, assures them that "there is no probability that the number of pupils in the school will ever exceed twenty-five, or that there will ever be need of more than two teachers." In this year, 1831, an extension was built to the building occupied by the officers and female pupils to provide a dining room. Life in the school in those days was decidedly patriarchal, the Super- intendent, his family and the resident officers dining at the same table with the pupils. In fact, the resident officers with their families continued to take their meals in the same room and at the same time as the pupils down to 1896 when the large increase in 15 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF number of pupils and consequent crowding of the dining room forced the building of a separate dining room for the officers. In 1833 Asiatic cholera was epidemic throughout the south and west and appeared in Danville, The school was closed, most of the pupils were sent to their homes and those who lived at a distance were placed with farmers in the country. Among the first to be stricken down with the disease was the Superintendent, Rev. John R. Kerr, who died on June 29th, Two days later his wife followed him to the grave. It is related that after burying her husband she was about to enter a carriage to take refuge in the country when she was taken sick and died in a few hours. The fright and demoralization among the people at the time was so great that proper attention could not be given the dead and so the body of Mrs. Kerr, dressed as she was, was hastily wrapped in blankets and buried without a coffin. The gravestones of Rev. and Mrs. Kerr may still be seen in McDowell Park, near the northwest corner of the Presbyterian church. In 1849 cholera wias again epidemic in Danville and twenty-four persons died of it in the neighborhood of the school, The school was again closed and the pupils sent to the country, Fifteen of them wvere taken sick but only one died. After the deaths of Mr. and Mrs. Kerr Dr. Luke Munsell and wife were appointed superintendent and matron, holding the posi- tions two years, retiring in 1835. The little that is known of them will be found in the biographical chapter. After his marriage in 1827, Mr. Jacobs had resided in a log house that stood on the north- east corner of Third and Walnut streets. On the retirement of the Munsells he was appointed Superintendent and took up his residence in the school buildings, thereby consolidating the offices of Super- intendent and Principal under one head, where they have since re- mained. With the growth of the school the arrangement by which the Superintendent boarded the pupils as a private enterprise had become very profitable but Mr. Jacobs, recognizing the inherent viciousness of the system, induced the Board in 1854 to take charge of the boarding of the pupils, he receiving in lieu of his former profits, a salary of a thousand dollars a year. At the same time he presented to the school five cows and all the furniture used in the school, these being his private property. It was soon recognized that the three years allowed by the act of incorporation for the tuition of state pupils was entirely 16 JOHN ADAMSON JACOBS, JR. This page in the original text is blank. THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF inadequate to secure satisfactory results, so in 1827 an additional year was allowed. Further extensions were made from time to time until all restrictions as to number of pupils aikdl period of tuition wn ere removed, the class of pay pupils abolished and the school made absolutely free to all deaf children in Kentucky. In 1835 work was begun on the first building erected ex- pressly for the use of the school,-the old school house, Full details as to this and the other buildings of the school will be found in the chapter devoted to that subject. In 1851 the school donated ten dollars towards the building of the Washington Monument., In February, 1859, a hurricane passed over the town in the late afternoon, greatly damaging the roof of the newly completed main building. It was repaired at an expense of seven hundred dollars, and while the repairs were under way, from the carelessness of a tinner, it caught fire and was damag- ed to the extent of three hundred dollars. In this connection we must not omit the story of "Aunt Malinda", the school's cook. She is said to have been descended from a line of African chiefs and was treated with great deference by all the other servants. While the excitement over the fire was at its height, some one- passing the kitchen, which was then located in the basement of the main build- ing! under what is now the girls' sitting room, saw "Aunt Malinda" quietly at work preparing dinner. He rushed in and excitedly call- ed to her to come out, that the house was on fire. To this she re- sponded by ordering him to clear out of her kitchen, saying that the fire was no affair of hers, her business was to get dinner. She then calmly proceeded with her culinary operations so that when the fire was finally extinguished and the excited household calmed down, it was to find their dinner ready for them on the tables, This fire is the only one of any consequence that has ever occurred in the school buildings since its foundation. Under the able adminstration of Mr. Jacobs and his assist- ants the school steadily prospered until in 1860-61 there were ninety- two pupils present and six teachers employed. The spring of 1861 saw the outbreak of the great Civil War. In the devastation and ruin wrought by this conflict none suffered more than the schools for the deaf, The buildings of the Mississippi c-chool were burned, and all the other southern schools, save that of Kentucky, were closed for a part or the whole of the period of hostilities, their buildings occupied for military purposes, their equipment destroved and the 17 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF buildings damaged. The Kentucky school was more fortunate in being able to continue its work without interruption, but in con- sequence of the disturbed state of the country the attendance of pupils was greatly reduced and there being no need for their ser- vices, three of the teachers, John A. Jacobs, Jr., John William Jacobs and Charles H. Talbott resigned their positions and entered the arr..y, all on the Union side, Another son of Mr. Jacobs, J. West Jacobs, then a student at Centre College, also enlisted and after the war entered the regular army, rising to the rank of Brigadier General. When in 1862 the Confederate armies, under General Kirby Smith and Braxton Bragg, invaded Kentucky a large number of the sick and wounded were sent to Danville. Allthechurchesandpublicbuild- ings were taken for hospital purposes and three attempts were made to seize the buildings of the School for the Deaf for similar use, the last on October 8th when, only nine miles away, one of the bloodiest battles of the war was raging at Perryvill'-. The attempt Was frustrated by the resolute action of Mr. Jacobs who informed the Confederate Medical Director that if the buildings were taken he together with all the other school officers, would at once abandon them, leaving the deaf children to the care of the Confederate officers who would be held responsible for them. This firm stand, together with the sincere reluctance of the Medical Director, Dr. J. F. Henstis, of Mobile, to interfere with the school in any way, avert- ed the calamity. In this connection it is related that a day or two after the battle of Perryville, one of the teachers, Mr. John Blount, visited the field and was horrified to see bodies of dead soldiers lying about, still unburied. He returned to the school and before dawn the next morning, started back accompanied by a number of our older boys, armed with shovels and picks, who spent the day burying the bodies they found on the battle-field. In addition to the havoc wrought by the operations of regular troops the state suffered much from the depredations of wandering bands of guerrillas that took advantage of the disturbed state of the country to rob and murder at their pleasure. It is related that on the approach of one such band to Danville the horses and cows belonging to the school were driven by some of the older boys back into the hills near Dix river where they were kept until the guerrillas had left and on a second occasion, there not being time to get the animals away, they were led into one of the school rooms in the old school house, where, with locked doors and closed shutters, they 18 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF J9 v; ere safely concealed until the danger was passed. There is no record of any of our former pupils being enlisted in the active ranks of either the Northern or Southern armies but John H. Yeager, Daniel Stewart and John Blount were members of a Danville com- pany of H4me Guards, Morris T. Long was enrolled in a Madison County company and there were doubtless others similarly enlist- ed. Robert H. King held important positions in the offices of the Quartermaster at Louisville under General J. T. Boyle, at Nashville under General George H. Thomas and at St. Louis under General Burnside, while James G. George was secretary to General J. T. Boyle and later on chief clerk in the office of the Provost Marshal at Louisville. While holding the latter position he took down the names and records of over fifty thousand Confederate prisoners. On the Southern side the school was represented by Emily John- son. She had married a hearing man, Dr. Francis, who became a Confederate surgeon. With him she followed the Confederate armies through the war, serving as a nurse in the hospitals. On November 17th, 1869, the venerable Superintendent of the school, Mr. John A. Jacobs died after having served as Principal since 1825 and as Superintendent since 1835. He had taken charge of the school in the days of its infancy, when it was looked upon by many persons as a doubtful experiment, had made it his life work to build it up and had seen it grow, under his foster- ing care, to be one of the established institutions of the State, a source of pride to the people and of untold benefit to the deaf of the Commonwealth. For many years he was the school and the school was he. Such was the implicit confidence reposed in him by the Board and members of the Legislature that any request made by' him was at once granted if it were possible, for it was known that he would only ask for what he deemed absolutely necessary. As an educator he ranked among the leaders, and a text book prepared by him and published in 1834, and in a revised form in 1859, "Primary Lessons for Deaf-Mutes" was for many years in general use in the schools for the deaf. The members of Mr. Jacobs' family loyally supported him in his work, His two wives and a daughter in suc- cession served as matrons, another daughter, a son, a son-in-law and a nephew were teachers, the latter succeeding him as Super- intendent, while in after years two of his grandsons served the school on the Board of Commissioners. Mr. Jacobs was succeeded in the Superintendency by his THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF nephew, Mr. John A. Jacobs, Jr., who retained the position until his death on December 28, 1878. During his administration an important change in the governing body of the school was made. From its foundation, as provided in the act incorporating it, the school had been under the jurisdiction of the Trustees of Centre College. As this was a denominational institution, controlled and under the aus- pices of the Presbyterian church, it was deemed best to place the school under a board that would be more directly responsible tr the State Legislature. With this object ini view the school was, by an act of the Legislature dated January 7, 1870 placed under a board of twelve Commissioners appointed by the Governor and this system has remained in force ever since. In April, 1873, the Legis- lature passed an act by which all the offices in the various state institutions were declared vacant and the Governor was authorized to fill them with new appointees, but a clause in the act expressly ex- empted the School for the Deaf from its provisions. After the death of Mr. Jacobs there was an interval of three months while the Board sought a suitable person for Superintend- ent. During this interval the matron, Mrs. Mary F. Dudley, acted as Superintendent assisted by one of the teachers, Mr. George F. Lupton. In March 1879, Mr. D. C. Dudley, then a teacher in the North Carolina school was elected by the Board and at once came to Danville, and assumed charge of the school. Mr. Dudley had grown up among the deaf, was entirely at home with them and throughly devoted to their interests. By his energy and execut- ive ability new life was infused into the school. The number of pupils was largely increased, for the first time passing the hundred mark. Additional teachers were employed, the handsome chapel and boys' building were erected and the industrial department greatly enlarged. Impaired health, howeve'r, forced Mr. Dudley to sever his connection with the school and seek a more equitable climate. He removed to Colorado in 1884 where he was connect- ed with the School for the Deaf in that state as teacher and Super- intendent until his death in 1900. Mr. Dudley was succeeded by Mr. William K. Argo, who had been for some years assisting him. There was an especial fitness in the selection of Mr. Argo as the head of a school for the Ueaf for he was himself the son of deaf parents and his mother had been a former pupil of the school. During Mr. Argo's adminis- 20 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF tration many improvements in the scholo were made, the colored department was put in operation, the shop building, an addition to the school house and a new laundry building were erected and ex- tensive additions were made to the real estate of the school. Un- tiring devotion to his work, however, told on a physique none 1no robust and in the spring of 1894 Mr. Argo was forced to resign his position and seek a milder climate in Colorado of whose School for the Deaf he was from 1899 until his death in 1921, the honored and beloved head. Mr. John E. Ray, who had been for some years at the head of the Colorado School, became Superintendent in August, 1894, and remained until 1896 when he retired to accept the superintend- enlcyv of dle School for the Blind at Raleigh, North Carolina, his native state. Mr. Ray's administration was especially notable for the large increase in attendance. He organized an active campaign to find and bring to the school the uneducated deaf children of the state with the result of increasing the number of pupils to over three hundred. Upon Mr. Ray's retirement, Dr. Augustus Rogers, our present scholarly and efficient head was appointed to the superin- tendency, a position he has now held for twenty-seven years, a length of service only exceeded by that of Mr. John A. Jacobs, Sr. Under Dr. Rogers' auspices the school has continued its steady march of progress. The large cottages for the younger pupils and the new power house were erected, the area of the shop buildings doubled and extensive additions to the chapel building made. The amount of real estate held by the school has been greatly enlarg- ed, the standard of efficiency in all departments of school work raised and new branches of study, such as Art and Domestic Science, introduced. The great World War, 1914-1918, had little direct effect on the school as all the male officers and employees were over the draft age but practically every officer and pupil had a near relative in the ranks, Mr. Schoolfield, Mr. McClure, Mrs. Yeager, Mrs. Reed, Mr. Terhune, Mr. Simpson and Mr. Geo. Christman being represent- ed by their sons and Mr. Rogers by a nephew. Dr. Cowan, thl school physician, enlisted in the medical corps and did yoeman service in a southern training camp. All hands subscribed liberally to the Liberty Loans and to the various drives to raise funds for war work and all submitted cheerfully to the restrictions on their consumption of sugar and other articles of food which had to be conserved to help win the war. 21 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF The century of the school's existence is now drawing to a close. In that period two thousand five hundred and forty-four pupils have been enrolled and two hundred and nine officers have served the school. At present there are three hundred and twelve pupils in the white school and twenty-seven in the colored, a total of three hundred and thirty-nine, which makes the Kentucky School rank seventh in point of size among American schools for the deaf. Lands of the School THE purchases of lands for the school have been as follows: In 1January, 1826, the school bought of John Tompkins its first piece of real estate, ten acres of land for 5,000.00, three thousand down and the balance in six months, Six acres of this is on the east side of Second street and is contained in that part of the garden lying south of the lane, the balance is that portion of the yard of the white department bounded by Second and Third streets, by a line drawn through the hall of the boys' building on the north and on the south by the drive way leading in from Second street, there being at that time a street runing through from Second to Third streets at this point. On this land was a two-story residence, which became the first permanent home of the school. No further land was bought for nearly thirty years. Then on February 5, 1855, a lot 130 by 182 feet on the southwest corner of Second and Green streets was bought of Joseph Weisiger for three hundred dollars. This lot was used as a garden down to 1882 when it was included in the yard, of which it now forms the northeast corner. April 22, 1856, John A. Jacobs sold to the school a lot on Second, then called Market street, 70 by 170 feet for 400.00, The north half of the boys' building stands on this lot. March 22, 1858, John R. Ford sold to the school thirty- seven and a half acres of land for 4697.50. This land lay on the east side of the town, north of the present extension of Main Street, and is now all built up. It was bought to secure pasturage for the school cows and was used for that purpose down to 1881 when it was exchanged for land nearer the school. The next addition to the school lands was a lot sixty-eight by two hundred and twenty-six feet for 500 of James Nichols, October 4, 1858, This lot lay on Third 22 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF street, just north of and on a line with the walk leading from tbW boys' building to Third street and on it was afterwards built the old shop building. No more land was bought until January 2, 1870, when five acres lying across Second street from the main building, was bought of John R. Proctor for 4,500.00. At that time it was an apple orchard and was bought to keep it from being sold in build- ing lots. It comprises the park and the site of the shop building. August 24, 1879, a small lot with a frame residence, lying on Second street between the lots bought of Jacobs and Weisiger, was bought of Mrs. Julia Heron for 2,300.00. This lot lies just north of the boys' building. January 4, 1881, the pasture lands bought of Ford in 1858 was exchanged with Benjamin Bollings for twenty-five acres and 1055.66 cash. This land is compassed in that part of our pasture lying between the garden and the Stanford pike. June 12, 1882, the school purchased of the Tompkins heirs a large brick residence, with six and a half acres of land, lying on the west side of the Hust- onville pike, south of what is now Jacobs street, for 3,750.00, It was bought to secure a spring of water and with the expectation of utilizing it for the Colored Department. A more advantageous location for this purpose was found, however, in the Grigsby home- stead and the Tompkins house with three acres of land was given in part payment for it April 2, 1885. The balance of the land ly- ing in two lots, one containing the spring and the other forming the southwest corner of Second and Jacobs streets, was retained and on the latter was afterwards built residences for the engineer and dairyman. April 2, 1885, the school bought of Mrs. Beatty "Warrick", the Grigsby homestead, lying on the east side of Second street between Green street and the land bought of Proctor in 1870 and extending back a distance of 1248 feet, containing thirteen acres, for 5,000.00 cash and the Tompkins house as noted above. In this lot is now contained the grounds of the Colored Department and all that part of the garden lying north of the lane. July 1, 1886, Mrs. Letita Olmstead sold to the school twenty acres of pasture; this land is contained in our south pasture. July 20, 1887, the school bought of Morris and Frederick Yeiser for 4,750.00 a lot on the south side of the street that then ran from Second to Third streets just south of the main building. This lot extended south 160 feet and was bought to prevent it being sold in building lots. On it stood, an old house that during and for some time after the war, was used as a barrack for a company of United States troops. The buildingbeingunsuitablefor 23 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF school use was torn down and later the little girls' cottage and the power house were built on the lot. September 6, 1887, two more lots were bought of the Yeisers for 1,750.00, the larger of one and one-eighth acres on the northeast corner of Third and Jacobs streets. On this the hospital now stands; the other of one-half acre on the northwest corner of Second and Jacobs streets now holds the little boys' cottage. The Yeisers had previously sold two lots each forty by two hundred feet to other parties and these were bought by the school May 8, 1890, one from Sarah Shields for 350.00, the other from John W. Bates for 2,000.00. On the latter was a frame dwelling, The location of these lots was on Second street, just north of the lit- the boys' cottage. The school now owning all the land on both sides of the cross street it was inclosed in the yard and a new street, Jacobs, opened on the south side of the school yard. March 9, 1894, a lot 202 by 233 feet on the southeast corner of Green and Third streets was bought of the Trustees of the First Presbyterian Church for 4,000.00. On this lot was a large brick house that had long been used by the church for a parsonage, By its purchase the school be- came the owner of the entire block bounded by Second, Green, Third and Jacobs streets. September 25, 1897, N. K. Tunis sold to the school a lot 62 by 211 feet, with a small frame house, on the southeast corner of Third and Jacobs streets, for 425.00. In 1920 the School bought of G. B. Swinebroad sixty acres of farm land lying on the west side of the Stanford pike, south of, though not adjoining, the school pasture and extending down to Clark Run, for the purpose of raising ad- ditional forage and farm crops. -This land was paid for by a special appropriation by the Legislature of 19,152.00. The total amount paid for lands by the school has been 60,588.83, which, deducting the cash received of Bolling in the exchange of land in 1881, makes the net cost of the school's real estate 59,533.17. The buildings that stood on a number of the lots when purchased materially added to their cost. The school now owns about one hundred and fifty acres of land and the entire plant of the school, land and buildings, is valued at about 370,000. 24 DAVID CHRISTOPHER DUDLEY This page in the original text is blank. THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Buildings AS stated elsewhere, the school occupied from 1823tol826arented frame building on the corner of Main and Fourth streets. In the latter year by the purchase of the Tompkins property the school became possessed of a brick residence, fifty by fifty-two feet, two stories and attic in height containing eight rooms and two halls. This building stood directly in front of the south half of the present boys' building, facing on Second street. It was used as a residence for officers andgirls,the boys using as adormitory a smallbrick build- ing of two rooms which stood on Third street, just west of the present bakery, and which after being vacated by the boys in 1836, was used as a cobblers' shop until some time prior to the Civil War when it was torn down. The cost of the Tompkins house with ten acres of land was 5,163.33, Three thousand of this was from a special appropriation of the Legislature, the balance from first sales of Flor- ida land. In 1831 an addition of "a few rooms" was made to the building at a cost of 2,072.03Y2. In 1847 an ell was built in the rear, twenty-five by fifty feet, containing a large basement for a kitchen, a room the full size of the ell for a dining room and a half- story for the girls as a sitting room. A porch was also built along its south side. The cost of this improvement was 2,040.32 of which Mr. Jacobs paid 541.98. In 1851 this ell was further enlarged by raising the roof so as to make a full second story and attic, at a cost of 1,152.92. The porch was also raised to make a second story porch and in after years this was inclosed so as to make an additional dor- mitory room. This building continued to be used by the girls until 1857 when, on the completion of the main building, they were transferred to it and their old quarters given to the boys who occupied them until 1882 when the old house was torn down to make room for the present boys' building. Long as its period of service was, the building, although described by a committee from the Legislature in 1827 as "being splendid and commodious," was neither comfortable nor adapted to school uses and the writer well remembers how, on winter nights, snow would drift through the cracks in the ill-fit- ting sash of the window at the head of his bed, where it would re- main for days before melting. A tragic incident in the history of the old house occurred in 1836 when a pupil, Mary Gore, was burned to death in it from her skirts catching fire at an open grate. 25 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF In 1835 work was begun on the old school house. This stands facing Third street, directly west of the main building. As originally constructed at a cost of about 5,000 it consisted of a central structure fifty-eight by twenty-five feet, two stories high, with one story wings at each end, each twenty-two by thirty feet. The central building contained four school-rooms and the wings two rooms each, which were used as dormitories by the boys from 1836 to 1857 when they were transferred to the Tompkns house, vacated by the girls. In 1850 the central building was improved at a cost of 1,925.00 by rais- ing the roof several feet and building a large porch on its west side, the rooi supported by four large Doric columns. In this state it remained for half a century, until in 1889 when the wings and the four columns, which were of solid brick, were torn down and the material used in building an addition at the north end, two stories high, fifty-seven by twenty-eight feet, containing four modern school rooms. The total cost of this improvement was 2,704.96. The total cost of this building for original construction has therefore been about 9,630.00. In 1852 the old chapel building was built, just south of and on a line with the school house. It is two and a half stories, fifty-two by thirty-two feet. It was built in the classic style so popular at that period, with a portico in front supported by four Ionic columns. The lower floor was in one room, used as a chapel down to 1882 when, on the completion of our present chapel building, it was divided into two school-rooms. The second floor has two school-rooms and the half story was used by the boys for a dormitory from 1852 to 1857. The cost of this building was 3,244.54. Of this 1,500.00 was from a direct appropriation by the State, 500.00 was contributed by Mr. J. A. Jacobs and the balance came from the permanent fund of the school. By 1854 in spite of these enlargements of the school buildings they had become crowded to their utmost capacity and more room was absolutely necessary. For this purpose an appeal was made to the Legislature and by act of February 18, 1854, 7,500.00 was ap- propriated for the further enlargement of the buildings. But upon careful consideration it was deemed a waste of money to attempt further additions to the old buildings, none of which were well adapt- ed to school use, and so it was decided to begin the erection of an entirely new building that would be in every way modern and suit- 26 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF able. With this in mind the corner stone, northwest, of our present main building was laid on the 16th day of April, 1855. Work on the building was delayed to some extent by the failure of the original contractor but new contracts were made and work progressed steadily until 1857 when its completion was celebrated by the house- hold taking dinner, on November 17th, in the dining room, now the girls' sitting room. The total cost of the building was 39,650.44. By act of February 9, 1856, the Legislature had appropriated an addi- tional 10,000.00 for the building, this with the original appropriation of 17,500.00 was all the State gave, the balance of 22,150.44 coming from the permanent fund of the school. The building was so sub- stantially built and so well planned that in the many years it has been occupied no material changes have been made in its interior arrange- ments and but minor repairs have been necessary. In 1858 work was begun on a building that was intended to house our industrial department. It was known as the old shop building and stood on Third street, west of the boys' building. It was of brick, two stories high, about sixty by twenty-five feet, with an extension one story high of the same size. It stood with one end resting on Third street and extended eastward, just north of and parallel with the walk leading from Third street to the boys' build- ing. Owing to the disturbed state of the country, on account of the Civil War, work progressed so slowly that it was not completed un- til 1863. Its costs was about 1,500.00, paid from an appropriation of 10,000.00 for general improvements, made by the Legislature in 1860. The war upset the plans for establishing an industrial depart- ment and the building was used for storage and servants' quarters un- til 1879 when a book bindery and soon afterwards a printing office and broom and carpenter shops were opened in it. But the building was never well adapted to the purpose and on the completion of the present shop building it was torn down. In 1880 the large increase in the number of pupils made ad- ditional accommodations absolutely necessary and the Legislature was appealed to for help. March 27, 1880, an appropriation of 30.000.00 was made and on March 6, 1882, an additional one of 29,916.00 for new buildings was made. In 1881 the old Tompkins house that had sheltered the girls from 1826 to 1857 and the boys from 1857 to 1881 was torn down and work began on a three story brick building sixty-two by eighty-eight feet. This is the present boys' building. It was first occupied by the boys in October, 1882. The 27 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF first brick in the present chapel building was laid May 11, 1881, and it was occupied in the fall of 1882. As originally erected this build- ing was ninety by forty-eight feet having on each of its two floors a front hall eighteen feet deep running the width of the building; on the first floor a dining room forty-six by fifty-eight feet and on the second a chapel of the same size. Twelve feet of the west end on both floors was taken up with store rooms. In the basement was a large room designed for the laundry and at the west end of the build- ing a one-story annex about thirty feet square housed the kitchen and in its basement the boilers of the heating apparatus. The total cost of the chapel and boys' building was 67,011.88. Of this the State appropriated 59,916.00. 370 was received for material in old build- ings and the balance, 6,725.88 was taken from the permanent fund of the school. The arrangement of having the laundry in the basement of the chapel building was found entirely impracticable and in 1888 a build- ing for a laundry wuas erected at a cost of 3,826.10. It was in the form of an ell extending backward from the chapel building and su-- rounding the kitchen annex. It contained an ironing-room 24 by 46 feet, now the kitchen, a laundry 24 by 60 feet now used for store rooms and two additional rooms, 24 by 20 and 12 by 24 which now form the north extension of the dining room. Under them was a large cellar, 24 by 100 feet for the storage of coal. As originally constructed the chapel was connected with the main and boys' buildings by open porches thirty feet long on both first and second floors. In 1888 they were inclosed with brick, form- ing closed corridors connecting the three buildings, at a cost of 1,630.- 55. In 1896 twelve feet was added to the length of both chapel and dining room by tearing out the partitions that formed small store rooms at their west ends. In the same year a separate dining room was provided for officers by building on the south side a one-story annex 23 by 32 feet. Another improvement of this year was the erection on both main and boys' buildings of four fire escapes of the Kirk-Bender pattern, the cost of which was 3,556.03. Owing to the large increase in the number of pupils the din- ing room had become crowded to its utmost capacity and the Legis- lature was appealed to for means to enlarge it. By act of March 7, 1906, 20,100.00 was appropriated for this and other improvements. In the summer of that year the old kitchen was torn out and the court 28 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF in which it stood was built over between the chapel and laundry buildings. By this means an area thirty by seventy feet was added to the dining room, the old laundry and ironing rooms converted into kitchen and store rooms and an additional store room and servants' dining room added. The cost of these improvements was 7,826.03. By the purchase of a lot from Mrs. Julia J. Heron in 1879 the school became possessed of a two- story frame cottage. As it was only a few feet from the north wall of the new boys' building it was removed in 1882 to a point further north, where it was occupied as a residence by officers of the school until 1896, then for school-rooms until 1904, and as a tailor shop until 1911. Soon after the building was sold and removed to the south side of Walnut street where it now stands, the third house east of Third street. In 1880 the new shop building, two stories high, with a high basement 26 by 80 feet with a projection in front 14 by 26 feet, was built at a cost of 3,800.39. In it were housed the carpenter and shoe shop and the printing office. In a few years it became inade'quate to the demands on it and in the summer of 1911, two wings, each 25 by 48 feet were added to it at a cost of 5,100, making room for a tailor shop and more space for the shops already there. With the steady growth of the school all the dormitories had become taxed to their utmost capacity and repeated appeals to the Legislature for relief resulted in the passage of an act on March 29, 1902 appropriating 60,000 for two dormitory buildings, a power house and new steam heating plant. Work was begun on these build- ings in February, 1903 and they were completed early in the following year, The appropriation not being sufficient to complete the buildings an additional one of 3,989.21 for the purpose, together with one of 1.500 for the heating plant and 800 for new furniture was made in 1,500 for the heating plant and 800 for new furniture was made in two stories and basement, 45 by 98 feet with an annex 40 by 45 feet in the rear, and beside containing the necessary dormitories and other rooms for the children, contain a number of model school rooms for the oral department. The buildings are duplicates of each other and so located that they may become wings to a large central build- ing to be erected between them at some future time, should such a plan prove desirable. The same year the new power house was built and equipped on Third street, west of the little girls' building. This is 42 by 72 feet, one story and basement, containing a battery of 29 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF four boilers, coal house and engine room and on the main floor a fully equipped laundry. The total cost of the three buildings, their equip- ment and the steam heating plant was 66,289.79. In the summer of 1910 a wing 22 by 30 feet was added to the power house to give ad- ditional room to the laundry. Its costs was 1,523.40, 1,500 from a special appropriation and the balance from the permanent fund of the school. In 1922 the power house was enlarged by tearing out the front and rebuilding it ten feet further out to make room for the in- stalling of larger boilers, at a cost of 12,100 for building and boilers, paid for by special appropriation of the Legislature. In 1898-9 the two story brick residence on the corner of Second and Jacobs streets was erected as an investment of a part of the per- manent fund of the school, its cost being 3,750 and during the sum- mer 'of 1904 the frame dwelling on the lot bought of Bates, in 1890, was removed to Jacobs street and fitted up as a residence for the dairyman. In 1892 a frame hospital 35 by 68 feet, containing four wards and other neccessary rooms, was built on Third street, near the south- west corner of the yard. It cost 2,409.00 and in 1911 at a cost of 850 it was improved by adding steam heat and new bath rooms. The old barn that stood in the garden on the south side of the lane, 150 feet east of Second street, was burned down Sept. 16, 1892, at a loss of 400, fully insured. The present one, of frame 50 by 80 feet, was erected in the summer of 1894 at a cost of 2,000.00, paid for by a special appropriation, and in 1910 it was improved at a cost of 2,411.04, taken from the permanent fund, by laying cement floors and putting in metal fixtures in the cow barn and by building a silo thirty five feet deep. In 1903 a model dairy house was built near the barn and fully equipped for the care of milk. In 1888 a cot- tage of three rooms was built in the garden at a cost of 350 for the use of the gardener's family and in 1905 it was enlarged by building an additional room. A cow barn 14 by 100 feet was built in 1890, and in 1915, having fallen into disrepair it was removed and a new one 25 by 60 feet erected in its place. A brick annex 24 by 44 feet was built to the north side of the store rooms for a bakery in 1911 at a cost, with its equipment of ovens and other apparatus, of 2,324.74. Since 1880 most of the minor building and practically all repairs of wood work has been done by the force of the carpenter shop4 at a material reduction of the cost of such improvements. The total 30 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF expendittire for original construction, but not for repairs or general improvement, at this date, April, 1923, has been 236,662.12. Of this the State paid, by direct appropriation, 182,889.90, the school from its permanent fund and general revenue 52,230.24, and Mr. J. A. Ja- cobs contributed 1,541.98. Florida Land Grant THE American Asylum, soon after its establishment, received from 1the Congress of the United States a grant of 23,000 acres of land from sales of which over 300,000 was in time realized and invested for the benefit of the school. The Trustees of the Kentucky School thought that a similar grant should be made to it, so a petition was drawn up and presented to Congress by Hon. Thomas P. Moore, then a member of Congress from the district in which the school was lo- cated. Some difficulty was created by the friends of the New York and Pennsylvania Schools, who claimed that if the Kentucky School was given such a grant, similar ones should be made to them. It was argued however, that the grant to the Hartford School was given to it because it was expected to provide educational facilities for the deaf of the eastern section of the Union and not for a single state, and in a similar way, the Kentucky School was expected to supply the south and west. By an act approved April 5, 1826, there was granted to the "Kentucky Asylum for the Tuition of the Deaf and Dumb, one town- ship of land, (excepting section sixteen for the use of schools therein) to be located under direction of the Secretary of the Treasury, which lands should be and forever remain to the use of said Asylum for the education of indigent Deaf and Dumb persons, or if said Asylum shall sell such lands, which it is authorized to do, the money arising from such sale shall be and forever remain to said use, and it shall be the duty of said incorporators to sell said lands within five years from the passage of this act, and the same shall be located in one of the Territories on lands to which the Indian title has been extinguished." Ill fortune seems to have followed this grant from the first. It was decided that Florida offered the best field ;r r location of the lands 31 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF and the Rev. Samuel K. Nelson was sent there in 1826 as agent for the school to make selections. He selected lands in Jackson County in tracts of not less than four sections, which he deemed most sal- able. Some of this land was already occupied by settlers, who, while they had no title to it, vigorously opposed the action of Mr. Nelson, in which they were supported by the Florida delegates to Congress. The matter was referred to the Secretary of the Treasury, who decided in favor of the settlers and authority had to be obtained from Congress to make new selections, which was granted by an act dated January 29, 1827. Mr. Nelson returned to Florida, made these selections and entered into agreements for the sale of twenty sections for 64,000. He was to have completed the sales and received 20,- 000 on account, but on May 7th, 1827 a few days before the appointed date, he was stricken down and died. Means of communication were of course very slow in those days and the Trustees did not know of his death until the news was brought to them by Col. Richard, C. Allen, who had been assisting Mr. Nelson. Col. Allen was at once ap- pointed agent for the school and started on his return to Florida to complete the contracts made by Mr. Nelson. On the journey he was taken sick in Tennessee and could not proceed for some weeks. On his arrival in Florida he found a period of business depression had set in, lands had fallen in value and most of those with whom con- tracts had been made repudiated them. More trouble was had from settlers who moved in and settled on lands belonging to the school. Great difficulty was met with in making collections and much of that collected was in Florida post notes and other currency that had great- ly depreciated in value. One remittance of 6,240 in Florida Union bank notes was estimated to be worth but forty-five cents on the dollar. The period allowed by Congress for sale of the lands expired in 1831 but was extended several times, the last one expiring during the Civil War, A portion of the grant was located in the then Terri- tory of Arkansas. It was the hope and expectation of the Trustees that the money received from the sales of land would be sufficient to establish a per- manent fund, the income from which would largely if not wholly sup- port the school. So sanguine were they of this that, at their initia- tion, the Legislature, by act of February 29, 1836, reduced the per capita allowed for the support of State pupils from one hundred and fifty to one hundred and twenty dollars. Their expectation were not 32 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF realized however and by act of January 7, 1852 the per capita was in- creased to one hundred and forty dollars. 1841 the agent of the school, Col. R. C. Allen, died of yel- low fever. An investigation of his affairs showed him to be indebted to the school from sales of land to the amount of 58,678.79. Of this 30,503.26 was collected from his adminstrators in the shape of notes and bonds and in 1843 a judgment was secured against the estate for 19.954, from which, however, but little could be realized. About 4000 acres of the land was found still unsold, new agents were ap- pointed and sales continued to be made until the outbreak of the Civil War. The agent at this time had in his possession 3,160. Not being able to make remittances to Kentucky, he invested the sum in Confederate bonds, which on the downfall of the Confederacy, of course, became worthless. In all 62,435.01 was realized from the grant. Most of it was invested in securities and for many years a considerable income was derived from them but from time to time portions were used to meet pressing necessities for new buildings or enlarged grounds until now all but about 4,000 of it is represent- ed in buildings and real estate. Trades FROM the first establishment of the school the importance of 1teaching the pupils trades by which they might support them- selves after leaving school was recognized. From the first annual report of the school, 1823, we quote the following paragraph: -t ----the Board has in view not only the health of the pu- pils but hopes, at some period, to have it in their power to em- ploy a portion of their time in acquiring a knowledge of such things as may enable them, when discharged from the institu- tion, to procure a subsistence. We conceive the education of pupils who have learned to read and write, and have not been taught any branch of industry, by which to obtain for themselves a support in life, as incomplete." The small size of the school and its limited resources during the first half century of its existence, made it impracticable to build and equip shops or to pay the salaries of competent instructors. Another 33 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF difficulty was the fact that at that time Kentucky was a slave state. The bulk of manual labor in both town and country was done by negro slaves and the parents of some of the pupils felt that it would be a degradation for their children to perform manual labor of any kind. This was especially the case with the female pupils and more than one girl was taken out of school because her parents considered she was degraded by being required to make her bed, wash dishes or assist in other household tasks. But while unable to establish regular shops for the instruc- tion of pupils, provision was made for the industrial education of the boys by a system of apprenticeship with mechanics in the town, by which boys worked in their shops a portion of the day, the work they performed being considered as an equivalent for the instruction they received. Under this arrangement boys were placed intheshops of tinners, harnessmakers, carpenters, blacksmiths, shoemakers, marble cutters, tailors, carriagemakers and printers and a number of them became skilled workmen. The Civil War broke up this arrangement and for some reason it could not be renewed. In 1874, one of the teachers, Mr. James G. George, who had learned the printing business under the old apprentice system, es- tablished in the small room on the second floor of the old chapel building, a printing office equipped with four cases of type and an old fashioned Washington hand press. This was the beginning of our present industrial department. Mr. George conducted the office until his death in 1876 when he was succeeded by Mr. John H. Yeager, who was also a product of the apprentice system. He remained in charge until 1887 when Mr. George M. McClure was appointed in- structor. The large number of boys under instruction rendered an assistant instructor necessary and in 1892 Mr. Martin B. Reed was appointed, becoming head of the office in 1910 when Mr. McClure relinquished it. The office remained in its original quarters until it was re- moved in 1880 to the old shop building and from there in 1881 to its present quarters in the new shop building. The printing office has been highly successful and a large number of our former pupils are now supporting themselves by following this trade. In 1879, Mr. D. C. Dudley, who was himself a skilled book- binder, established in the old shop building a book-bindery fully equipped with tools and machinery and placed Mr. Charles P. Fos- 34 TIHE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF dick in charge as instructor. The bindery was conducted success- fully until 1883, when upon the retirement of Mr. Fosdick, who had removed to Florida, it was discontinued as it was found the trade offered few opportunities for employment in this state. In 1881 Mr. Dudley also established, in a small way, shops for carpentering, broom and mattress making with Mr. Henry Scales as instructor. The two latter trades were soon discontinued as it was found they offered but a limited field for employment. The carpenter shop was continued under Mr. Scales until 1882 when Mr. James W. Collings took charge of it, remaining until 1884 when he retired and was succeeded by Mr. Archibald Stiles. In 1886 Mr. Stiles re- signed and Mr. Collings again assumed charge of the shop, remain- ing until his death in 1919. In 1894 Mr. William N. Collings was appointed assistant instructor. In 1904 his brother, Mr. David Col- lings succeeded him until 1906 when Mr. William Collings resumed the position, holding it until 1917 when ill-health obliged him to re- tire and seek a milder climate. Mr. Elbert Lane then took charge of the shop, remaining until 1920 when he was succeeded by Mr. Luth- er Morris. The next trade to be established was shoemaking, in 1886, with Mr. Andrew Veatch in charge as instructor. He retired in 1902 and Mr. W. C. Griffen taught the trade for one year, being succeeded in 1903 by Mr. David Wilson, who remained until 1917 when Mr. 0. W. Webb, the present incumbent, assumed charge of the shoe shop. Lack of accommodations made it impossible to establish other trades until 1899 when arrangements were made with a tailor, Mr. J. H. Armstrong, who was then a student at Center College, to in- struct a number of boys in tailoring in the afternoon in the old Pres- byterian parsonage at Third and Green streets. In 1904 the build- ing of a new power house and laundry vacated the old laundry and it was used as a tailor shop until 1906 when it was transferred to the Heron cottage and from there, in 1911, to the new addition to the shop building. Mr. Armstrong resigned when he graduated from college in 1901 and was succeeded by Mr. Charles Suttka, a former pupil of the school. From the first establishment of the school gardening had given employment to many of the boys. The first garden was where the main building now stands, the present garden being used as a pasture. By the purchase of the Ford property in 1858 ample pasturage was 35 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF secured and the garden was transferred to the old pasture, its pre- sent location. The lot on the southwest corner of Second and Green street, purchased in 1855, was also used as a garden down to 1882. The purchase of the Grigsby property in 1885 more than doubled the area available for garden purposes, while the purchase of a sixty- acre farm in 1920 still further enlarged it, there now being about seventy-five acres under cultivation. The cultivation of the garden was done by pupils and hired hands under direction of the superin- tendent and the boys' supervisor until 1872 when a regular gardener. Mr. D. C. Sullivan, was employed, remaining until 1876. James O'Hara was in charge during 1877 and James Riordan during 1878. They were followed by John Christman, 1878 to 1880; Henry Scales to 1881; Morris T. Long to 1885; Hiram B. Marlow to 1886; John Christman to 1896; Charles P. Fosdick to 1913; George Christman to 1920 and Henry Lausman since then. The school has always kept cows to supply the pupils with milk, the herd being enlarged until we now have thirty fine Holsteins. Prior to 1895 they were cared for by colored employees but in that year an expert dairyman, Mr. Daniel Beer, was employed, remaining until 1903 when failing health obliged him to seek the milder climate of California. He was succeeded by Mr. Joseph Huffman and he in 1906 by Mr. Henry Lausman, and on the latter becoming gardener, in 1920, Mr. Wm. L. Owen became dairyman. From the first the girls have been instructed in sewing and house keeping, the matrons acting as instructors until 1879 when Miss Annie Harvey was appointed as teacher of sewing. She retired to be married in 1881 and was succeeded by Mrs. Nannie R. Long who was instructor until 1885, Miss Chloe Cowan to 1894, Miss Mary Smiley to 1895 and Miss Belle Root to 1913. The increased number of girls in the sewing room made an assistant instructor necessary and in 1900 Miss Leila Bryant was employed. She died in 1904 and was succeeded by Miss Kate Bowman, and upon the retirement of Miss Root, in 1913, Mrs. Sophia Reed was added to the corps of teach- ers, remaining until her death in 1923. The work of the girls in the laundry and ironing room was directed by supervisors or older pupils until 1896 when Mrs. Annie Sparks was appointed supervisor of the ironing room, serving until 1903 and being succeeded by Miss Jessie Wilham to 1904; by Miss Mattie Hignight to 1906, by Mrs. Emma Van Pelt to i920 and Mrs. Sallie Morris since then. In 36 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF 1922 instruction in Art was begun by the employment of Miss Lydia Anderson, formerly with the Kentucky College for Women, to give instruction in drawing to such pupils as evinced a talent in that direc- tion. Xhile in the same year instruction in Domestic Science was begun for the girls by Miss Mary Timoney. Periods Allowed Pupils in School BY the act of incorporation in 1822 the number of pupils support- Bed by the State was limited to twenty-five, the period they might remain under instruction to three years, and the per capita. allowed for their support to one hundred dollars per annum. In 1824 this per capita was increased to one hundred and fifty dollars. In 1827 the period of instruction was increased to four years, and in 1836 to five years, but at the same time the per capita was reduced to one hundred and twenty dollars. The limitation of number of State pupils to twenty-five was not exceeded until 1845 and in the following year it was enlarged to thirty, and in 1847 to forty. In 1850 the period allowed for instruction was increased to seven years and in the same year the limitation of numbers was removed by providing that all children whose parents were unable to pay should be received free. In 1852 the per capita was raised to one hundred and forty dollars where it remained until 1914 when it was raised to one hundred and fifty dollars, and in 1918 to two hundred dollars. In 1854 it was provided that all children under thirteen years of age might be kept in school until they were twenty-one and in the same year the school was made free to all deaf children of the State regard- less of their pecuniary circumstances. In 1865 all limitations of time were removed by making the school free to all of proper age for instruction. In 1880 a rider was tacked on to an appropriation bill requiring parents able to do so to pay for the board and tuition of their children, but as might have been expected it proved practically inoperative and two years later was repealed by an act making thd school absolutely free to all the deaf children of Kentucky. 37 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Methods of Instruction FOR the first sixty years of its existence the school was a manual one, the methods of instruction being those introduced from the Hartford School by Mr. Jacobs in 1825. Some attention was given to preserving and improving the speech of those who had learn- ed to talk before becoming deaf but no regular instruction was given orally until 1884 when an articulation teacher was employed. Since then the number of these have increased and now the school is on a combined basis, and all who are capable of receiving instruction orally are so instructed. In the chapter on Trades will be found a description of the work of the school in the industrial education of the pupils. The pupils have at all times been encouraged to engage in athletic sports which would serve to develope their strength and health. Until 1922 the athletics of the boys were supervised by volunteer instructors from among the teachers and supervisors but in that year a regular Director of Athletics, Mr. Ashland Martin, was engaged. In the same year Miss Mary Woolslayer was employed as Physical Instructor for the girls. In this connection it is interesting to note that besides being the first interior state to provide for the education of its deaf, Kentuc- ky also had within its borders the first successful pure oral school in the country, if we except Braidwood's school at Cobbs, Virginia,- that conducted by Rev. Robert T. Anderson at Hopkinsville from 1842 to 1854. Mr. Anderson had removed to Kentucky from Virginia in 1818 and opened a school in Glasgow. He became interested in the instruction of the deaf and in 1842 removed to Hopkinsville and opened a private school wherein he advertised to teach the deaf to speak. He had pupils from all over the south and west. His meith- ods appear to have closely resembled those in use in the pure oral schools of today and he had about the same amount of success. He had two sessions a year, of six and four months and his charge was twenty dollars a session. He died in 1854 and there being no one to succeed him the school was closed. A full account of this school will be found in the Annals of the Deaf for 1899. Kentucky may also claim the first Catholic school for the deaf in the United States. In 1835 Bishop Flaget, the celebrated pioneer bishop of the Diocese it Bardstown, Ky., while traveling in France visited a school for the deaf in Brittany and was so interested in its 38 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF work that he determined to establish a similar school in his own home. A niece of the Bishop, Sister Eulalia Flaget, spent two or three years learning the methods of the French school and then, in 1839, returned to Kentucky, accompanied by another French nun, Sister Antoinette Bernier. The following year they opened their school at the convent of the Sisters of Loretto, in Marion county, with three pupils. It was advertised as a school for Catholic deaf girls and the charges were one hundred dollars a year. But after being conducted for two or three years it was discontinued, probably on account of lack of patronage. Health THE health record of the school has been excellent. During the Xcentury of its existence but few serious outbreaks of sickness have occurred, which is the more notable as most of the pupils have been young children, many with constitutions enfeebled by the dis- ease which rendered them deaf. In 1833, as noted elsewhere, when Asiatic cholera was epidemic throughout the state, the superintendent and matron, Rev. and Mrs.John Kerr, died of it. The pupils were sent home or placed with farmers in the country and none of them had the disease. But when it reappeared. in 1849, a number were takeW!sick but only one died. In 1876 an outbreak of dysentery forced an early closing of the school, quite a number of pupils were sick and two died. During the world wide epidemic of Spanish influenza, in 1918, the "flu" as it was popularly called, appeared in the school soon after the opening of the term. Over two hundred pupils in the white depart- ment were taken sick, numerous cases of pneumonia followed, two of which terminated fatally. All school work was abandoned for three weeks while the teachers assisted in the nursing. For some reason the colored children seemed immune to this disease, not a single case occurring in the colored departement. The school has also been free from serious or fatal accidents, only two accidental deaths having occurred on the school premises. In 1836, a girl pupil, Mary Gore, was burned to death in the old boys' building from her skirts catching fire at an open grate, and January 30, 1917, another girl, Cynthia Sowders, in some unknown way, fell from a window at the south west corner of the fourth floor of the main building to the ground below and was instantly killed. 39 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Donations and Bequests THE Hartford, New York and Pennsylvania schools had on their establishment been made the recipients of liberal donations and bequests and it was confidently expected that the Kentucky School would be similarly favored. By the act establishing the school the Trustees were-"authorized and empowered to receive by legacies, conveyances or otherwise, lands, slaves, money or other property- the interest, profits or processes of which shall not exceed the sum of thirty thousand dollars per annum." These expectations, however, were never realized. Nineteen of the leading citizens of Danville in 1823, subscribed 970.00 in sums varying from ten to one hundred dol- lars, but of this only one subscription, that of fifty dollars by Charles Henderson, was ever paid. The balance was carried in the Reports for several years as an uncollected asset and then drcpped. In 1824, Rev. Samuel K. Nelson collected 417.50 for the school from citizens of New Orleans and in 1827, Rev. Samuel Finley collected 30.00 from other parties. In 1850 Captain James S. McGowan of Montgomery Co., donated to the school 1,000.00 for a library fund. In 1873, Mr. Daniel Cozatt, father of Jordan Cozatt, a former pupil and teacher, gave 500.00 to the fund and in 1877 he gave 500.00 more. This fund of 2,000.00 was invested and the income from it has been used for the purchase of books for the school library which now contains over 2500 volumes. This total of 2497.50 is all the donations the school has received from outsiders. Mr. John A. Jacobs, Sr., while Superin- tendent was a liberal contributor in aid of the school. In 1846 he gave 95.95 towards building a wash house, in 1847, 541.98 towards en- larging the girls' quarters, in 1851, 500.00 for the improvement of the old school house. In 1852, 125.00 to help pay salaries and in 1853, 125.00 for the same purpose, in 1853, 500.00 to the old chapel, and in 1860, 500.00 for printing Primary Lessons, making the total contributed by him 2,387.93, which with the amounts given byothers as noted above, makes the whole sum received by the school in the way of donation s, 4,885.43. 40 DR. WILLIAM KAVANAUGH ARGO This page in the original text is blank. THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Former Pupils IN the hundred years of its existence 2,544 pupils have been enrolled in the school, 2,328 in the white department and 216 in the colored. In its early years its growth was naturally slow. It was twelve years before the names on the roll reached a hundred, and forty-four years before they reached five hundred. After that the growth was more rapid. A thousand pupils had been enrolled in the white de- partment by 1891 and two thousand in 1914. It would be. interesting if we could trace the careers of all our former pupils and see what measure of success they encounter- ed; this is not practicable but we know enough to gain a fair idea of their achievements. Agriculture has claimed most of them; they came from the farm and they returned to the farm. Space will not admit of enumerating all who have been successful farmers but we may note that W. H. Sparks cultivated a farm of one thou- sand one hundred acres in Grant county, Rufus Thompson owned a large plantation in Alabama, Simon Lary is a planter in Louisiana and George Duflot is a florist and seed grower in the same state, Ben. F. Grissom is ranching in New Mexico, Frank Christman has extensive greenhouses in Pennsylvania where he cultivates flowers and vegetables, while Ernest Stillings is raising fine apples in Washing- ton State. Deafness is usually regarded as a bar to conducting in- dependent business enterprises but Reuben Herron has a jewelry store in Lakeland, Fla., and Guy Orndorff a similar one at Adairsville, Ky., James G. George established and published the Richmond, Ky. Messenger until his office was destroyed by Confederate soldiers. John W. Overstreet for many years had a country store in Jessamine county, while Anton Grief had a similar one at Vine Grove, Ky. James Marshall, Archibald Stiles and Luther Morris have been successful contractors and builders. Robert H. King conducted an insurance agency in Lexington from 1874 until his death in 1916. Terry Page had a steam laundry in Glasgow, Ky., for a number of years. Ross Nicholson has long held a responsible position in the United States Treasury at Washington. G. P. Webb is State Hunter and Trapper at Umatilla, Ore., his business being to make war on wolves, bears and other obnoxious animals. John W. Overstreet and Chas. P. Fosdick have held commissions as United States postmasters and Roscoe Overby has been a rural mail carrier in Laurel county. Watt H. Sisk is an electrician in Madisonville, Ky., Pat Ballard is THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF similarly employed at Astoria, N. Y., while Gordon Kannapell is a chemist in Louisville. No less than fifty-two of our former pupils are on record as having held positions in this or other schools for the deaf, thirty as teachers, eight as supervisors and fourteen in the industrial depart- ment. George T. Schoolfield taught in this school for fifty-two years and G. M. McClure has been teaching for forty-three years. Next to farming the trades have engaged most of our pupils, printing being in the lead as it has been found especially suited to the deaf. Ethel- bert Hunter has followed this trade in Chicago since 1876 and others for periods but little shorter. Many of our printers are also expert linotype operators and Thomas Northern is head of a firm that does custom work on the linotype in Denver. Matt Lyon has a harness shop in Evansville, Ind., and there are a number who have conducted independent shoe and tailor shops, while Oliver B. Anderson has con,- ducted his own barber shop inNewport,Ky.,foroverfortyyears. The great manufacturing establishments have given employment to many of our boys, the Goodyear Rubber Works at Akron having at one time had over sixty on its pay-roll, while a number of deaf men are employed in the great Ford Factory at Detroit. Of the latter Henry Ford has testified in an article in McClure's Magazine that "No special consideration need be given to deaf employees; they do their work one hundred per cent." In their public relations our graduates have stood shoulder to shoulder with their hearing neighbors and have fulfilled accept- ably their duties as citizens. They have joined the churches, become members of fraternal orders and associations for public betterment, have contributed liberally to the cause of religion and charity and in numerous instances parents, when old and infirm, have found that their deaf child was the one that stood by them and was the stay and prop of their declining years. Water, Light and Heat FROM the first and for almost three quarters of a century an Xadequate supply of water for the school was a problem. The Report for 1826 shows an item of 131.01 expended for powder and 42 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF labor in blowing a well. Again in 1872-3 an attempt was made to secure a water supply by drilling an artesian well at a point half way between the main building and the old school house. It was driven to a depth of one hundred and fifty-six feet at a cost of 244.75. Both these attempts were failures and resort was had to cisterns to catch and hold the rain water. These were added to as the school grew until the yard about the buildings was fairly honey-combed with them. A force pump was placed in the basement of the main build- ing by which water from the cisterns could be forced to a tank under the roof for the use of the girls. The filling of this tank was the duty of the boys and it is said that the muscular development so notable in our pupils of that period, is due to the exercise they had over the handles of this old pump. The supply of water from cisterns being insufficient, a never failing spring was secured in 1882 by the purchase of the Tompkins property just south of the school. A wind mill was built over this at a cost of 888.50 and a tank built in the roof of the chapel, costing, with the necessary piping from the spring, 473.50. The wind- mill proving unsatisfactory it was taken down in 1889 and a steam pump with a capacity of 80,000 gallons a day was substituted at a cost of 1,499.05, including pipes and engine house. In 1895 con- nection was made with the new water works system of the town and an abundance of water has since been had from that source. Open wood fires appear to have been the only means of heat- ing the buildings down to 1852, the first mention of a purchase of coal being in that year. In the new main building, erected in 1855-7, a steam heating system was installed with a boiler placed under the back porch. The fuel was wood, sawed by the boys and hauled to the furnace on a narrow wooden tram-way. The system proved a failure and dependence was had on stoves and grates until 1882 when with the erection of the new buildings in that year, a modern system of heating by steam was installed in all the buildings except the old school house and the colored department which continue to depend on stoves and grates. Candles were the first source of illumination in the school buildings, later superceded by oil lamps; it was not until 1876, after the establishment of gas works in the town, that gas was used. With the old fashioned fish-tailed burners the light could hardly have been of very high quality, but the writer, who was then a pupil, well re- members how wonderful we thought it when the gas was for the 43 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF first time lighted in the study-room. Gas, in turn, gave way to electric light when a dynamo was installed and the buildings wired, in 1906, at a cost of 7,824.00. Corporate Name IN the act establishing it the school is designated as "The Ken- tucky Asylum for the Tuition of the Deaf and Dumb." The in- appropriateness of the term Asylum, as applied to a school, was early recognized but no change was made until 1882 when the Legis- lature, by an act dated January 27th, of that year. changed it to "The Kentucky Institution for the Education of Deaf-Mutes." March 19, 1904 the Legislature, in response to a petition from the Kentucky Association of the Deaf, again changed the name to the present and proper form, "The Kentucky School for the Deaf." The Association of the Deaf also induced the Legislature to definitely fix the status of the school as an educational and not a char- itable institution by the passage of an act approved March 13, 1912 by which Section 273 of the Revised Statutes was amended by the addition of the following paragraph "---and said School for the Deaf shall be regarded, classed and conducted wholly as an educational institution of the State; and its classification, conduct and management shall be wholly separate and distinct from that of benevolent, charitable, cus- todial, and correctional institutions of the Commonwealth." School Paper rN April, 1874, Mr. James G. George, who was an expert printer, 1 and who had at one time owned and published a newspaper in Rich- mond, Ky., with the support of the Superintendent, Mr. J. :A. Jacobs, Jr., established a printing office for the instruction of the pupils in that trade and at the same time began the publication of a little school paper, "The Kentucky Deaf-Mute." It was a small 44 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF folio published monthly. Later it was enlarged and issued twice a. month, and since 1882 as a weekly. In 1896 the name was changed to "The Kentucky Standard." Mr. George edited it until his death in 1876, Mr. John H. Yeager then took charge until 1879. Mr. Charles P. Fosdick was editor from 1879 to 1883 and Mr. George M. McClure has been editor since then. It is now among the oldest and most successful of the school papers. Literary Society TN 1857, Mr. John W. Jacobs, one of the teachers, established among the pupils a Literary Society, modeled after one in Centre College. Save for a brief intermission duringtheCivilWar,thesocietyhascon- tinued in active operation ever since and is now the oldest society of those at schools for the deaf. It meets weekly for debates, ora- tions and recitations and has been a source of much pleasure and profit to the pupils. The chief event of the year in the society is the celebration of Washington's birthday, when speakers, especially selected for the purpose, deliver orations and recitations on patriotic subjects. Through the efforts of the society money was collected and used to secure oil portraits of former teachers and prominent educa- tors of the deaf. The first was the fine portrait of Laurent Clerc that now hangs in the school chapel. It was painted in 1850 by John Carlin, a deaf poet and painter of Philadelphia. The next was of John W. Jacobs, painted some time during the Civil War. Those of John A. Jacobs and Samuel B. Cheek were painted soon after their deaths by a Cincinnati artist. The one of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet was painted in 1907 by a deaf artist of Bad-Ems, Germany, Mr. Rudolf Janik. All the portraits were paid for by the contributions of past and present pupils The bronze tablets under the portraits of Mr. J. A. Jacobs and Rev. Samuel B. Cheek are the gifts of members of the Cheek family and were placed in position and unveiled in 1907 during the Fourth Reunion. The folding blackboard that stands on the platform in the chapel was invented by Supt. J. A. Jacobs, Jr. and constructed under his direction in 1876. 45 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Reunions IN 1891 a reunion of former pupils was held in the school which was the occasion of so much pleasure to those who attended it that others have been held June 14-16, 1898; Sept. 2-5, 1902; Sept. 2-4, 1907; Sept. 3-5, 1910; Sept. 2-4, 1916 and Sept. 4-6, 1920. The first reunion was notable for the presence of Miss Eveline Sherrill, one of the three pupils who entered the school on the opening day in 1823. At this reunion was organized the Kentucky Association of the Deaf, under whose auspices allsubsequent reunionshave beenheld, andalso the Educational Aid Fund, having for its object the assisting of grad- uates of the school who were desirious of obtaining a higher educa- tion or special training. The Fund has aided a number of our boys to secure a college education. Centennial T HE conclusion of the school's first century was observed on April T 11, 1923 by the whole school assembling on the front lawn and with appropriate ceremonies, planting, near the south- east corner of the main building, an oak tree. When the tree was set in place all filed past it, each officer and pupil dropping over its roots a handful of soil. It is hoped and expected that the tree will grow and flourish and that on April 11, 2023 the ceremonies of the second centennial will be held under its spreading boughs. Slavery THERE is no record of the school ever having owned slaves, but as lprior to the war slaves were the only servants available it was the custom to hire them from their masters and this continued as late as September, 1865. The records show that from fifty to seventy dollars a year was paid for the service of a woman and one hundred dollars for a man, the school, of course, feeding, clothing and paying the taxes on them. Several of these hired servants remained in the service of the school for many years after emancipation and were noted for their fidelity and industry. THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Finances THE act of 1822 incorporating the school provided that one hund- red dollars should be paid annually for the support of each state pupil. This was found entirely insufficient and in 1824 it was in- creased to one hundred and fifty. In 1836 it was reduced to one hundred and twenty at the initiation of the Trustees who expected that the income from the Florida land grant would be more than ample to make up the deficit. In this they were disappointed and in 1852 the per capita was raised to one hundred and forty dollars where it re- mained for sixty years, until 1912, when it was increased to one hun- dred and fifty dollars. In 1918 it was increased to two hundreddollars. In 1850 an annual appropriation of two hundred dollars was made to clothe indigent pupils. This appropriation was never in- creased. In 1854 an annual appropriation of 3,000 was made for salaries and general purposes, and in 1866 this was increased to 6,000 annually. In 1882 it was raised to 7,000; in 1884 to 10,000; in 1886 to 11,000; in 1902 to 15,000; in 1906 to 18,000; in 1908 to 20,000, and in 1912 to 25,000. The per capita system of appropriations worked well, for the school's income rose automatically as the number of pupils increased. Special appropriations for building and purchases of land were made as needed. In 1920 a budget system for all state appropriations was in- troduced, abolishing the old system of per capita and annual ap- propriations, and since then each Legislature has made an appropia- tion for the support of the school for the ensuing two years. In the following tables will be found the yearly income of the school from all sources of revenue during its first century.

Of this the State supplied 3,074,914.- 88 in appropriations for maintenance and 286,317.28 in special ap- propriations for purchases of lands, erection of buildings and similar purposes. Between 1826 and 1861 the sum of 62,435.01 was receiv- ed from sales of Florida lands. Most of this was invested in a per- manent fund from which 58,840.40 has been realized. Prior to 1882, when the school was made absolutely free to all deaf children in Ken- tucky, 26,719.03 was received from pay pupils while the sum of 4,885.33 has come from donations and bequests. The balance of the revenue has come from sales of garden, dairy and shop products and other miscellaneous sources. 49 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Colored Department PRIOR to the close of the Civil War no provision was made for the education of colored children, by the State, either deaf or hear- ing, but after that time frequent applications began to be made for the admittance of colored children to the school. These were necessari- ly refused but the need of some provision for the colored deaf was recognized and as early as 1874 the Board, in its report to the Legis- lature, recommended that a school be opened for them. It was not until 1884, however, that the Legislature took action. By an act dat- ed May 9, 1884, a school was established for the colored deaf. The preamble of this act reads as follows: Whereas. It is expedient as well as just to make pres- ent and adequate provision for the care and education of the colored deaf and dumb children of this Commonwealth, and whereas, the co-education of two races is both inexpedient and unadvisable; and, whereas, wise economy and due efficiency require that the education of both races should be under one management; and, whereas, a State Institution is already locat- ed at Danville, Ky., for the education of white deaf-mutes, Therefore be it enacted ..... By the provision of this act the school for the Colored Deaf was located at Danville, under the same Board and superintendent as the white school but in all other respects entirely separate from it. The sum of five thousand dollars was appropriated for buildings and it was enacted that the colored pupils should receive the same per capita of one hundred and forty dollars a year for support as the white pu- pils. An annual appropriation of 2,500.00 was also made for salaries of teachers and officers. Two years previously, by the purchase of the Tompkins prop- erty, a short distance south on Second street, the school had become the owner of a large two story brick house and preparations were be- gun to fit it for use of the colored school. But at this juncture an op- portunity occurred to secure the old Grigsby homestead, just across the street from the white school, and as this was in every way more suitable it was purchased for 5,000.00 cash plus the house with three acres of land, of the Tompkins property. The Grigsby place includ- ed thirteen acres of land, divided into grounds, garden and pasture, and a large Colonial mansion, two stories high, 42 by 46 feet including the large front porch with its Ionic columns, and with two wings of one story each, 45 by 22 feet, at the ends; in the rear was an ell of one 50 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF story 55 by 22 feet. This building had been erected about 1845 by Joseph Weisiger and under the name of "Warrick" had been in turn the family residence of himself, of Dr. E. P. Humphrey and of Colon- el J. Warren Grigsby. Mr. Morris T. Long was appointed teacher and supervisor and Mrs. Nanine R. Long matron of the new school which was opened February 2, 1885, with eight pupils. In 1887, at a cost of about 3,- 000.00, the two wings and ell were raised to full two stories and an addition 38 by 28 feet was built at the south end, providing a large school room on the first floor and a dormitory of the same size on the second. In 1890 at a cost of about 4,500.00 a two story brick addition was built in the rear, 32 by 64 feet. It provided a large chapel, a dining room and a playroom in the basement for the boys. The entire cost of the colored department for lands and buildings has therefore been in cash but 12,500.00. To this should be added the value of the old Tompkins house and grounds given in exchange. The attendance of pupils gradually increased until in October, 1897, there were fifty present and four teachers were employed. But thereafter the attendance declined until, in 1909, there werebuttwenty three pupils with two teachers; since then it has been slowly growing again until it now numbers about thirty. Mr. Long taught until his death in 1911; Mr. W. J. Blount from 1886 until he died in 1918; Miss Mabel Maris from 1891 to 1894; Mrs. Lillian Paddleford 1895- 1907; Mr. Max. N. Marcosson 1898-1900; Mrs. Sophia Reed 1911- 1913; Mrs. Mary D. Fosdick since 1913; Mr. Frank Christman 1888- 1890 and 1918-1922 and Mr. Ashland Martin since 1922. Mrs. Long continued as matron until 1917, shortly before her death, being suc- ceeded by Mrs. Ellen Murphy who retired in 1920 and was succeed- ed by Mrs. Emma Van Pelt, the present incumbent. On the death of Mr. Long Mr. and Mrs. Martin B. Reed moved into the colored school. Mrs. Reed as a teacher and Mr. Reed as supervisor. They retired in 1913 and were succeeded by Mr. and Mrs. Chas. P. Fosdick. Mrs. Flora B. Morse served as girls' supervisor from 1898 to 1903 and since 1917; Mrs. Sophia Reed 1903-1904; Miss Lizzie Keenon 1904-1907; Miss Amanda Turner 1907-1915 and Mrs. Ellen Murphy 1915-1917. The colored department has now been in operation for thirty- eight years and in that period 216 pupils have been enrolled, 121 boys and 95 girls. With but few exceptions its former pupils are in- dustrious, law-abiding citizens, respected and esteemed by the com- munities wherein they dwell. 51 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAT Trustees, Commissioners and Officers AS provided in the act establishing the school. it was placed by the Legislature under the jurisdiction of the Board of Trustees of Centre College. As will be seen by the list of members of this Board, during the time it controlled the destinies of the school, it was largely composed of Presbyterian ministers, together with a number of laymen, among whom were several who afterwards became prominent in the annals of the State and the Nation. William Owsley became Governor; Robert B. McAfee Lieutenant Governor; John Boyle and George Robertson Chief-Justices of Ken- tucky. James Birney was one of the pioneers in the anti-slavery movement and candidate for the Presidency on the Abolition ticket in 1840 and 1844; Jeremiah T. Boyle became a General in the Federal army during the Civil War, while Ephraim McDowell is famous as the "Father of Ovariotomy." The Board at the time it took charge of the School in 1823 was composed of the following gentlemen: Chairman; Hon. John Boyle, James Birney William Owsley Thomas Montgomery Samuel McKee James Barbour Thomas Clelland, D. D. Samuel K. Nelson, D. D. David C. Cowan Ephraim McDowell, M. D. JOHN HARLAN, Chief Justice of Kentucky. William Craig, M. D. Jeremiah Fisher John Green Edward Worthington Robert B. McAfee Benjamin H. Perkins William Miller Joseph McDowell John Higgens, D. D. Secretary. Other members of this Board while it administered the af- of the School for the Deaf, with the year of their election, as follows: Michael G. Youch 1847 Peter R.

The connection with Centre College proved a happy one for the school for it secured for it, a newly established institution, regarded with doubt by many and with indifference by others, a standing in 1830 1830 1830 1830 1831 1831 1831 1831 1831 1833 1833 1833 1833 1834 1835 1835 1836 1838 1838 1839 1839 1839 1839 1840 1840 1840 1841 1841 1842 1843 1844 1845 1845 1845 1845 1847 53 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF the community and fixed definitely its status as a school for the ed- ucation of children and not a mere asylum for the care of helpless un- fortunates, which the early schools for the deaf were too often con- sidered to be, by the general public. The Board of Trustees of Center College continued to admin- ister the affairs of the school until 1870, in which year the Legislat- ure, by an act approved January 7th, constituted the following gent!e- men and their successors a Board of Commissioners to govern the school: Clifton Rodes, James L. Allen, Robert W. Graham, Milton J. Durham, A. B. McGrorty, William Downton, George R. McKee, James A. Grinstead and William Johnson. By act of March 18th of the same year this Board was enlarged to twelve members by the ad- dition of George F. Lee, Samuel Ayers and William Daviess. The terms of four of these were to expire in two years, four in four years and four in six years, the terms thereafter to be six years. Vacancies were to be filled by the Governor. This arrangement has been in force ever since and has given entire satisfaction. The members of the Board have always been selected from among the leading, business and professional men of the community. To serve the school has been considered by them as an honor and they have devot- ed to its interests time and labor the value of which it would be difficult to estimate. While too many of the schools for the deaf, both north and south, have felt the blight of politics and positions in them have been made the prey of the spoilsman, the Kentucky school has never been molested. The political complexion of the Board has variedwith that ofthe Stateadministrationbut thepolitical affiliation of candidates for positions in the school has never been considered in making appointments. A notable instance of this was in 1884, when a Board, solidly Democratic, appointed a Republican, Mr. William K. Argo, Superintendent, because they knew him to be the man best fitted for the place. Another feature of both the old and new Boards is the long tenure of office of many of its members. Charles Henderson served the school from 1824 until his death in 1862, a period of thirty- eight years. Of the new Board, Rev. James L. Allen was a member for thirty-two years, John W. Proctor for twenty-three years, S. V. Rowland for twenty-one years, Jo. H. Thomas for twenty years and others for periods but little shorter, while George F. Lee was a member of both the old and new Boards for an aggregate of thirty- four years. In a number of instances sons have succeeded to posi- 54 THE KENTUCKY SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF tions on the Board that their fathers had filled, while a present member, Mr. Gavin Wiseman, has been preceeded on the Board by his father, his grandfather and his great grandfather. The appointment of Mr. Robert H. King, a graduate of the school, by Governor Wilson in 1908 is notable as being the first in- stance of a deaf man being appointed to a position on a Board govern- ing a school for the deaf.

Long periods of service have been the rule. In its hun- dred years of existence it has had but eight superintendents and eight matrons. The record for long service in the school belongs to the late Mr. George T. Scholfield who taught continuously for fifty-two years. Miss Martha Stephens comes next with a record of forty- eight years as teacher and supervisor. Mr. J. A. Jacobs, Sr., was a teacher and superintendent for forty-four years and our present superintendent, Dr. Rogers, bids fair to surpass him, having already thirty-five years of service to his credit. Rev. L. Eddy taught in this school for thirty-one years and Mr. William D. Kerr for twenty. Among the present teachers Mr. George M.
