A History of the Free School of Andover : Latterly Called the Andover Grammar School, with Numerous Illustrations (Classic Reprint).cArthur C Bennett
Excerpt from A History of the Free School of Andover: Latterly Called the Andover Grammar School, With Numerous Illustrations
We, the author of this work, believe that a history of the Grammar School at Andover has never before been written, and that this work is "a new thing," notwithstanding the sweeping assertion made by a certain wise man of the East some twenty-eight hundred years ago. At the same time, judging from the time and labour expended upon this work, we are fully in accord with that sage's dictum in respect of the making of many books - namely, that to such an undertaking there is no end, and that a great weariness of the flesh is his portion who studieth overmuch.
To apologize for our "poor little book" would scarcely be honest, but an explanation of the great discursiveness therein committed requires explanation, and the reason for such is two-fold, namely to give our readers an insight into the conditions of life at Andover at certain periods of the schools existence, and for-purposes of reference in case other volumes of Andovers history should ever be completed.
We offer warm thanks to our many helpers, viz.: -
For permission to study the town archives: R.T. Moore, Esq., Mayor of Andover, 1917-18;and T.Webb, Esq., Mayor of Andover, 1918-19 and 1919-20.
For the same privilege in respect of the church registers, etc.: Rev. Walter E.Smith, M.A., Vicar of Andover.
For allowing access to Titheridge's MS. Report upon the archives of Andover: T. E. Longman, Esq., Town Clerk of Andover.
For a similar facility in regard to the archives of the Andover Charities: P. E. J. Talbot, Esq., Clerk to the Charily Trustees, etc.
For allowing access to the wills, etc., at the Probate Registry in Winchester: Alfred Musgrave, Esq., Senior Registrar, Somerset House, London.
For similar facilities in respect of the Enclosure Awards of 1740 and 1785: A. H. M. Butler, Esq., Librarian to the House of Lords, and H.Barber, Esq., Ll.B., Clerk of the Peace for Hampshire.
