"This is a picture of the 5th and 6th graders at the Freeman Grammar School taken in 1916. It appears to be a special occasion with the flowers on the desk and the students all looking so serious as their photograph is being taken. This room is located upstairs at Harbor House on the side of the building next to the Lawrence S. Robinson Co. I attended the 4th and 5th grades in that room. It was sunnier than the rooms on the north side of the building, so when my fourth grade teacher, Gladys Whitmore, retired the fifth grade teacher, Bertha Reed, seized the opportunity to move the fifth grade across the hall. I recall feeling a bit disappointed at first that I would not get to be in a different room in the fifth grade, but as I like lots of sun, I think overall I lucked out after all." - Meredith Hutchins 01/24/2012

8091Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's The Village Blacksmith on a Blackboard
  • Image, Photograph
  • Organizations, School Institution
  • 1906 c.
  • Southwest Harbor
When the new schoolhouse was built, the old building was sold to George Harmon and it was used for stores and apartments. Many years later the owners of the Harmon Block found, in one of the rooms, an old blackboard from when their building had been a school. On the blackboard was still part of the poem, "The Village Blacksmith" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and some doodling on it, remnants of a lesson from circa 1906! This date refers to the time the blackboard was last used. The board shows the 4th stanza of the poem: "And children coming home from school Look in at the open door; They love to see the flaming forge, And hear the bellows roar, And catch the burning sparks that fly Like chaff from a threshing floor." (From "The Village Blacksmith" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow from "Ballads and Other Poems" published in 1841)

Nell Thornton, who attended this school, says, "The schoolhouse lot was purchased of William Thomas Holmes (1829-1910) on March 27, 1860, and the building erected that year to take the place of the old one which stood opposite Mr. John F. Young's house." - “Traditions and Records of Southwest Harbor and Somesville, Mount Desert Island, Maine” by Mrs. Seth S. Thornton, 1938, p. 132-133. (See Thornton, p. 130-131 for an account of an earlier school at Norwood Cove, which stood at the south corner of Main Street & Fernald Point Road. That land is now part of the Causeway Club.) "In 1913 the school at Norwood's Cove was abolished and since that time the pupils have attended the schools at the village. Throughout the years this school district maintained a high rank of scholarship and many earnest and gifted teachers have taught in the little building, which was painted yellow with white trimmings and for equipment had a large desk for the teacher, a chair, one or two maps and part of the time a water pail and tin dipper." In 1923 Allston Sargent (1875-1944) of East Orange, New Jersey, bought the school property from the Town of Southwest Harbor. (HRD 584/14). The deed, dated November 6, 1923, says that the lot is 1/5 acre together with the building thereon formerly used as a school house. The school building was razed in 1937 by Lawrence S. Robinson (1897-1980), who recycled the lumber for an addition to his house at 28 Fernald Point Road, Map 9 - Lot 28. The Robinson house has since been razed. In 1946 Robinson's sister, Esther M. (Robinson) Hynes (1901-1983) and her husband, Cecil E. Hynes bought the property and built a summer cottage on it. It was sold out of the family until 1980 when Lawrence Robinson's daughter, Joan (Robinson) Terry and her husband, Wilbert Terry, purchased the property and made it their year round home.
