Excerpt from Manual of Education, 1874: A Brief History of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction, Including a Synopsis of Annual and Other Meetings, List of Officers and Members Together With the Constitution and Charter The following pages have been written at the request of the Rhode Island Institute of Instruction, expressed by vote of its members at the annual meeting in 1871. The publication has been delayed beyond the time originally contemplated, by circumstances not under the authors control. In preparing this volume it has been the aim to present a comprehensive view of the state of education in Rhode Island in the early years of its history, and to trace the progressive steps by which the cause has advanced to its present cheering condition. The founding of the Institute, under the auspices of far-seeing and guiding minds, was an event the importance of which cannot be over-estimated. It was the embodying of hitherto scattered elements, and imparting to them a power which separately they did not possess.
