Excerpt: ... $10,000 to "The Academy" as a school for boys? No memorial shaft or proud mausoleum could so enduringly perpetuate his wisdom and beneficence. These may crumble and mingle with the dust, but so long as that hill stands, crowned by the academy, the name of William King will be gratefully recalled by successive generations. His widow married Captain Francis Smith, and their descendants are among the most refined and cultivated of the present generation. INDEX. Page.
