The Granite monthly, a New Hampshire magazine, devoted to literature, history, and state progress . Alstead Academy season and Thomas F. Fletcher oneseason, both also graduates of Dart-mouth College; Ira Hatch one season,a member of Union College Schenec-tady, N. Y.; Enoch Hale, 1827; Mil-ton Parker, 1828. The institutionwas then closed until 1833, when it. A. R. Emerson (at 80 years) was opened again by Mr. Justice , a member of Amherst Jones taught three seasons insuccession and was very Kidder, 1838, was the lastpreceptor as far as known, the acad- emy being closed for want of patron-age in that year. The old academy was a brick struc-ture, two stories high, fifty feet longand thiry-five feet wide, with apitched roof, an entrance in the mid-dle of the long side, with no portico,and had two chimneys. I am indebted for most of the fore-going information to Prof. J. of Phillips Exeter Academy,who quoted from historical sketches,appended to a sermon preached atAlstead in 1826 by Rev. Seth S. Ar-nold; also to Dr. R. F. Oliver and toMr. A. R. Emerson of Alstead, who,so far as is known, is the only livingstudent.
