* According to the School Committee records John Haskell was elected Master of the Centre Reading School, 27 June, 1800. Mr. Wm. G. Colburn has a note written by him, dated Centre School. In Fleet's Massachusetts Register for 1799, Samuel Hunt appears as Latin Grammar Master, Centre School; in 1803, Wm. Biglow is given as the same and John Haskell as English Grammar Master, Centre School, and the latter continues the same as late as 1817, when Mr. Benj. Apthorp Gould appears as Latin Grammar Master, Centre School. The Committee therefore feels justified in filling the blank of the edition of 1847. The same School Committee Records state that Benjamin Gleason applied for the Mastership of the West Reading School, 20 May, 1808, and the Committee has thought it not unlikely his is the name which should be inserted in the blank before Gleason.

† Assistant Master, equivalent to what was afterwards Sub-Master.

Changed from Higgins on the authority of the late Edw. Reynolds, M. D., and John L. Watson, D. D.
