SCHOOLS – Page 733

The interest in public education in this township is manifest from the 
comfortable appearance of the schoolhouses.  They are nearly all built 
of a fine quality of stone, which is quarried in the township.  They are 
fourteen in number, with the following names:  Millersville, Will’s, 
Leber’s, Fitzkee’s, Kline’s, Shultz’s, Furnace, Bentz’s, Pike’s Peak, 
Gilbert’s, Martinsville, Crosby’s, Neiman’s and Cramer’s.  For the past 
year, William S. Gilbert was president of the school board; Reuben A. 
Paules, secretary; Peter H. Kline, treasurer; Baron Ruby, Tobias Reeley 
and J. H. McGuigan, directors.
