[294] twenty-four years, with signal success, by Miss Eliza Bradbury, was deservedly ranked among the most useful seminaries within the neighborhood of Boston. Devoting herself to the most substantial and important branches of education, she produced the most durable and happy results. Her pupils were mostly from other towns, and several of them from the most elevated families. Fortiter, fideliter, feliciter. Other private schools, less extensive in numbers and of shorter duration, have done their share in the good work, and been a credit to the town. For more than half a century, the excellent schools of Medford have presented a strong inducement for strangers to settle among us. Courtesy forbids me to designate by name that private classical school taught by a well-tried and successful instructor; and those private boarding and day-schools for young ladies, which have had such auroral beginnings. “May they have unbroken success!”
