Unanimous Vote in Favor of a
IIiffh School for Lancaster.
As was anticipated, the Lan
;asler, Cntigsvdle and St. Luke
ehool distric s voted unanimousy
last Saturday in favor ot the
isiabli-hinenl ol a high echoed at
his place, under the State law.
L'he vote was light in each (lis
iict, owing no doubt to the n
lanimity of public sentiment in
aver of ill" proposed school, the
leople realizing that a full vote
vhs not necessary to secure the
chool's establishment. But
ivery ballot cast was for the
cliool.
The vote was as follows : At

5t. Luke, 12.
The matter# now goes bef< re
he State b- ard ??f education, to
