Dated April 12 1813 and April 22 1813. The original letter is from the Guardian of Eliza Climer student at Bethlehem Female Seminary to Rev. Andrew Benade "Director of the Seminary at Bethlehem" to send Ms. Climer to Philadelphia "as soon as a convenient opportunity offers." He receives a response written on the same sheet below the initial letter on April 22 1813 from the new director Louis Hillner. Stating in part: "I have delivered your letter to Miss Eliza Climer directly to her; but instead of her being pleased with her soon leaving the Seminary she lamented and wept and insisted upon me to write a few lines to you and beg of you whether you would give her leave to stay in this seminary for some time longer. As she rose my whole compassion I could not do otherwise as to give her the promise to write to you. I am of the opinion dear Sir that it would indeed be for her best if she could stay here at least six months longer and I am convinced that if it is in your power dear Sir you will readily grant the petition in her behalf. You will be so kind as to let me know your intention on this head as soon as is convenient to you and I shall then act according as you think proper." The Bethlehem Female Seminary is the earliest established institution of female education in the United States tracing its roots to 1742 when it was first established in by Countess Benigna Zinzendorf. The Seminary began as an elementary educational institution for young girls starting at ages five or six years old. In 1785 due to increasing demand the Bethlehem Female Seminary reorganized as a secondary educational institution that became known as the Moravian Female Seminary. The newly reorganized female seminary also became open to all denominations. In 1913 the Seminary officially became a college and in 1954 merged with a male institution to become the coeducational Moravian College. Weakened along original fold lines. Repairs in 9 places with archival paper repair tape. Text remains clear and legible. Overall in good to very good condition. An incredible and early Female Education history. unknown books

But saying as I think The art of writing I detest-Confound the pen and ink!- I must not write I hate to write I cannot-will not-what! O! Yes sweet Miss For one sweet Kiss I'll write without one blot."

By her genial influence the heart of man naturally prone to yield to the dictates of error is almost imperceptibly led into the paths of refinement where real pleasures only can exist and participates with her in the purer and more delightful affections fo the soul."

1832200121832. Sixteenth Annual Report of the Directors of the American Education Society Presented at the Annual Meeting Boston 1832. Boston: Printed for the Society by Perkins & Marvin 1832. Octavo. This Sixteenth Annual Report of the American Education Society documents the activities finances and ideological priorities of one of the most influential early nineteenth-century Protestant educational reform organizations in the United States. Founded in 1815 the Society was central to the effort to train and place "indigent but pious" young men into the Protestant ministry reflecting the close relationship between education religion and moral reform in the antebellum period. The 1832 report presented at the Society's annual meeting in Boston offers contemporary insight into institutional governance donor networks and the expansion of theological education during a period of rapid national growth and religious revival.<br /> <br /> The report situates the American Education Society within the broader context of early American benevolent and missionary organizations which sought to shape national character through education grounded in evangelical Protestant values. Annual reports such as this were intended not only as administrative records but also as persuasive documents designed to demonstrate accountability to subscribers while promoting continued financial and moral support. As such the volume serves as a primary source for the study of early American educational philanthropy religious reform movements and the institutional structures that underpinned nineteenth-century clerical training and social influence. <br /> Condition: Disbound lacking original wrappers. Moderate edge wear text complete and legible. unknown
16760Early American Women's Education Movement. Catalog of the Officers and Members of The Seminary For Female Teachers. Salem Massachusetts. Printed at the Register Press. April 1839. Women's Academy and Seminary Archive recording the first important movement of women into higher education in the United States seminary was synonymous with "academy" and did not have the religious connotation of today-This is an important point but seems awkwardly placed. Maybe either use the phrase "into secular higher education" in first sentence or in next sentence say "In the 1800's the Female Academy and Seminary Movement transformed American educational norms allowing women the opportunity to receive secular non-religious college-level education<br/><br/>Women's colleges proliferated in the mid- to late- 19th century to fill the void created by their exclusion from most institutions of higher education. The prevailing notion that women were too delicate for a rigorous academic education was openly challenged when Elizabeth Cady Stanton spoke at the Seneca Falls Convention of 1848 "Man's intellectual superiority cannot be a question until woman has had a fair trial.When we shall have had our colleges our professions our trades for a century a comparison then may be justly instituted." Young women were quick to step up to the challenge; as quickly as female colleges opened they filled up. This document dates 10 years before Seneca Falls. unknown books

1707219th c. Women Education Autograph letter signed by student Sarah Hooker at Wheaton Female Seminary in Norton MA. Dated Dec. 24 1844. Four pages folded from a single extra large sheet with original wax seal still attached. Letter addressed to her mother in Falmouth MA. Place identified as "Norton Seminary Boarding House" a boarding house for students at Wheaton Female Seminary now known as Wheaton College founded in Norton MA in 1834. The letter specifically mentions founder and President Mr. Wheaton: Cousin M's sickness is really quite an event. She does not seem to gain strength at all. Mr. Wheaton who loves her as if she were his own daughter is almost discouraged." She writes on her academic studies: "I have everything convenient for studying but good pens." <br/><br/>She also shares her concerns about the quality of her schoolwork and writing as well as social aspects of school life such as making friends and getting along with her roommate. "I dread my compositions here more than anything. Some of the young ladies write so beautifully. I am very glad you have decided to let me take lessons. I wanted to move on account of improving in my singing. I practice the scales. I am going to try to improve all my advantages to the utmost. When I first came here the girls the wild ones thought as I was "green" I would be a good tool for their jokes. So every moment there was a good opportunity one of them in particular would say or do something to make me appear confused. It would come frequently at table and I invariably made her appear exceedingly mean. Not intentional but in clearing myself I made her of course look blank.There does not seem to be one of the girls who dislike me. There are many first rate ones." "My room-mate I like a little better.She is a very pleasant girl. She loves to have fun and frolic as well as ever. Poor girl she has had to go through the fire like the rest of us." Not uncommon for this time portions of the document have crossed text in order to maximize writing space and indicating that the student wrote a longer letter than the page could hold. Original fold lines and light toning. In very good condition. A unique and personal piece of early Female Education history. unknown books

He also mentions conflict with the Delta chapter of Psi Upsilon at New York University with whom “there is evidently discord . manifested in various ways each chapter striving for the mastery instead of uniting forces to certain victoryâ€.
