for repairs; as, 1727, £ 5 on the town house and the schoolhouse. In 1739 £ 40 is voted for repairs, and 1748 the amount set aside for the purpose is £ 100 for the schoolhouse alone. Thus the third school building of Charlestown, which, according to our reckoning, ought to have ended its existence about this time, by a timely outlay was made to do duty for several years to come. Considerable light is thrown upon the school fund at this time. In 1727 it was itemized as follows:— Lovell's Island, let to William Walters (?), £ 17. School lot, let to Timothy Wright, £ 5. Salt marsh (on Malden side), let to Joseph Frost, £ 1. 10. Money at interest, £ 357. 10. 0., with income of £ 21. 9. 0. A school lot in first division,—amount not given. Soheegan farm,—not valued. Land adjoining the schoolhouse,—not valued. In 1740 the free school income amounted to £ 71.4. 0. （Frothingham.) In 1748 these funds amounted to £ 1,857, Sowhegum farm having been sol

placing a ladder against the side of the vessel, received the passengers, conducting them safely to land. Lieutenant Haswell, not daring to risk his little daughter on the icy ladder, fastened a strong cord round her waist and swung her out over the bulwarks of the brig into the arms of a stout old sailor standing up to his waist in the water to receive her. Amid such scenes of peril Miss Susanna Haswell was introduced to our American shores. On the day succeeding the shipwreck at Lovell's Island, Lieutenant Haswell and his little daughter reached their home at Nantasket, a large one-story wooden building with a huge chimney in the centre. This house was standing in 1870, styled the Parsonage. It was in this house that Miss Haswell passed the days of her girlhood. Here her mind received its shape and coloring. Endowed by nature with a lively fancy and a vigorous constitution, she spent most of her young life in sports and rambles over the hills and valleys of Nantasket.
