Cumberland County, NC - Frances Bowen School, 1810 TO PARENTS & GUARDIANS Circumstances of a domestic nature having rendered it necessary that Frances Bowen should return to her family in Fayetteville, she has (though reluctantly) withdrawn herself from the Raleigh Academy, and purposes opening a School in Fayetteville on the first Monday in March, for the reception of young ladies. She engages to teach them those various branches of literature which she has taught with some success for three years past in the Raleigh Academy. She is encouraged to hope that the parents and guardians of children will feel no apprehensions in placing their children or wards under her instruction. They may depend that the utmost exertions will be made to cultivate the minds and improve the morals of such as may be committed to her care. Terms of tuition will be made known on application to the subscriber.
