Tribute to the Memory of Rev? l'?/e
kiel l'osier Hyde and Wife,
The First Teachers at
Old Richland
A endemy.
t Hy u. T. .laynes, )
lt was the writer's privilege to
attend school at old Richland Acad
emy during the years 1ST I and 1872
under Kev. Ezekiel Foster Hyde as
principal, ami his wife' as assistant.
Tiley were the lirst teachers at this
academy. The school house was
built during IS70 by the citizens ol'
Hie community, who contributed
money, material kind labor. The
building was about is b> 3C feet,
witli an old-fashioned rock (illume)
at tin- north end. Later another
chimney was also built at Hie south
end. and a porch on the west side1.
One huge door (the front door)
stood about the middle on the west
side, with one glass window to the
right ami one to the left; also one
door and two glass windows on the
east side. The boys and .airls sat
on loni; benches behind desks ar
ranged around the walls, and stood
up in rows to recite their lessons,
on commencement occasions tho
east side was adorned with a large .
brush irbor with numerous loni; slab
. 'I
benches extending lo the eastward j
ir. the grove on which were seated j
tho large audiences as they listened
to. or were held spell-bound hy, ju
venile oratory. The house wa.- w? i
therboarded np and down and cov
ered with I wo-fool pine hoards. ll
was not celled, but had an overhead
io! I ol' inch planks laid on the joists.
In the crack.- between the weather
boarding, here and there, COUld be J
seen suspicious look in?; hickory
ches, Which e\ er and anon did
valiant service as tho necessity j
aiose. or the occasion required. (We .
have heard it said there wore three:
bad boy- in thal school I? tho
names ot' Luke Vernor, Dick Strlh
liug and Lob .laynes. who tried lo
make these old switches do duty
every day. lt was also said thai
(ira lid ma Hyde sued more tears (lur
ia-; the pen orina nee., ol' the switch
In the hands ol' Crnudpa llsde (han
did nil) Ol' all of those bad boys.)
The house stood about fort) yards
east of Ibo Richland Presbyterian
church building, in a shady grove of
native miks, lt was au ideal sight
or an nld-lield school.
Al thal time the pastor of thc
Richland and Retreat Presbyterian
churches was Rev. K. I'. Hyde, who
was not only an able and zealous j
preacher, bul also a ripe scholar and
experienced teacher. Fortunate, in
deed. was this community when it
secured tho services of Res. Mr.
Hyde and his cultured wife as the
ll rsi teachers for this school, on
which centered the hopes, desire.-,
ii I aspirations of so man) fond and
doling parents. As we travel back
In monier) lo those day.- and con
template tor a moment the high
?t,indard ol' elllciency maintained j
through Hie ll rsl two S'oiirs of tho
life ol' thal old academy, wc recall
with mingled feelings bf regret and
gratification the scenes of those
earl) years. The country was just
beginnInf? to recover from the wain,
distress and dire poverty following
thal terrible Civil War. which left
;he ''ouih poor in everything, -ave
honor, valor and high resolve. Re
turning lo their home-, in the sprint;
and summer of I.St???, thc men ol'
: community, in common with all
communities throughout our South
land, lound their Holds laid wa. te.
their wives and children in home
spun and home-made clothes. Those
wen tho days of the spinning wheel
?in I li c home and the Cl'llb-ftx and
lone-horse wood plow-stock in the
j Held. Hill only (ho years ol' labor
sUfllced for the men and women ol'
t ii- community to recover their for
innes sulUcient I. to build on tin
id I <. a commodious and com fort a hie
school house from their voluntary
contribution.- of money, material
and labor. Think Of lt ! ( Inly liv e
short years lind elapsed, ami yoi
righi here we timi a community
building and equipping a creditable
plan) ami Installing two of tho rip
est scholars as teachers of their
children. You may search I ho rolls
ol tho names of Hie teachers In
Picketts District and afterwards in
Oc?n?C county, and I venture the
assertion (hat the names of no more
faithful, capable and zealous loacll
I 01'H have been, can now, or over
will be found than of I hose two first
teachers of old Richland Academy.
Diligent, earnest, deep, loving ft lld
true, they taught, by jue,cpi and
? .\a IVkplO, bot h t he head and t lu

i and it was a high standard of ex
cellence which they established, and
WC believe that standard bas ever
since been maintained by the great
majority of teachers, who have fol
lowed thom since those days. The
simple truth is, the parents of tlds
1 community would not be satisfied
' with anything but the best. Tho
spurious article could not long lind
countenance or support in tlds quar
tet'. Tho parents here were wise in
I their generation, and they believed
thal a dollar rightly put In lbe bead
was worth a thousand in Hie pocket,
and they wore careful to see that
I he dollar was rigidly put in the
head.
As these Inst teachers set such a
high standard of excellence, it ap
pealed lo the writer to prepare a
brief sketch of their Ines and labors.
I am Indebted to Mrs. Oscar Har
ris, of Westminster, S. C.. formerly
Miss Adele Hunter Hyde, one of tin
two surviving daughters, for Hie
data from which I have wri'ten tin
following sketch of lier father and
mot her.
Uev. Ezekiel Foster Hyde was
born near SI incoe, Province of <bita
rio. Dominion of Canada, May 1st.
I S'l 4. Ile was the third son of
Sherman Hyde, a native ol Connec

family that resided there In colo

Holland, and thence lo America ii
the earl} days. Tho,\wnovcd to Can

son- and two daughters were born
to them. The third son, H. I-'. Hyde,
went to New York in I S : ; . ami con
t inned io resido t here till IS ! 1.

Prom a beautiful tribute to
memory ol Rev. E. E. 1 lyde by lt
T, c. Ll go 11 we onoto the condini
paragraph :
"Itiother llydo was x eminently
/
godly man. His whole life was a
manifestation of sincere piety. For
moro than fifty years he was a pro
fessor of tho religion of Jesus Christ,
and for more than forty years a
preacher of tho Cospel, and yet
never was there a blight on his
Christian character. He was modest,
gentle and unassuming In society
and amongst his brethren; was an
earnest aim instructive preacher of
the Gospel; and tn private conver
sation was especially entertaining.
'Po know him woll was to love and
to appreciate him most. lils faith
was strong and his end was peuce.
The .Master called him. and there
ls every reason to believe that his
spirit is in glory."
His wile. Mrs. Nancy Adele Hun
ter Hyde, was born lu Laurens coun
ty, South Carolina, in LS26>. She
was educated at Salem. North Car
olina. In ISSO she was happily
married to Kev. 13. F. Hyde. She
died March ls. 1892, and was hur
led beside her husband at Roberts
church. Anderson county. South Car
olina. Sile was a woman of Hue
Christian character and gentle cul
ture. She was an ideal preacher's
wife. She loved children and loved
lo teach I hom. lt was here that she
taught the primary classes, composed
ot Hie small boys and girls. Heilig
then both a your ; and small hoy Hie
w ri tor was under her tuition most of
the limo. How vividly wc recall
her gentle face and anxious motherly
care for all her pupils. She took a .
deep and tender in tores I in them i
all. How lier heart was grieved by
misbehavior on the part of any of i
her pupils. How she hore with,
ihem and wan nation) and kind even
though they were rude and wanton
.nul mischievous. li is a strange
tvak of human nature that ls some?
?mes m a a i fesl in school hoys be
tween the ages of S and t l veals
when thc thoughts that seem to bo
uppermost in their minds dwell
mainly on mischievous and devilish
things, orien, loo, Hus disposition
i-> manifest l>\ hoys otherwise of
good and proper deportment. So
long as iliis trend of thought, or
lieut of mind, is conllned to Inno
cent mischief, or even rude spoil,
there is hope for Hu1 orrlng lad.
Hut this is the type ol' hoy thal calls
for, yea, that demands tactful, care
ful training, lest this bias of dispo
sition he twisted or forced in the
wrong direction, ls it not that the
teacher linds his sorest trial, and at
thc same lime his greatest trwnnph.
in dealing with his subjects of this
kind? How many hoys have Peen
led by patient, earnest, loving and
devoted teachers out ot. and. ll nally*,
away from their had ways to higher,
liner, nohler and loftier aspirations
and pursuits?
"Love took up Hie harp of lite, smote
on all I he chords wit h might :
Smote the chord ol' Sell', that, irenib
linj;, pass'd in music out of sight."
When tho in bot? of '!>?' faithful
and devoted teacher have been thus
rewarded, surely he or she linds his
or her greatest compensai ion in the
jo.v ol' the conquest of good over evil
and in the abiding consciousness of;
the part played by him or her in the'
leading forth and development ol a
good, bravo and noble man. .Such
we know luis been, and ever will be,
the highest com pensa I ion ol' the true
teacher: for. in dollars and cents,
lie is poorly paid. Indeed, dollars
and cents cannot adequately com
pensate lin- worthy teacher for his
labor.-. The sure reward of the
great, Hie good ami the true teacher
is thal he lives on, and on. i .. tho
lives of those whom he teaches, and
his influence tor good will be foll
I ll rough the ?IgOs lo the end ol time.

Such were the labors ot those two
first capable, faithful, devoted and
patient teacher., of old Richland
Academy.
