  "ABBOT ACADEMY was founded in 1829, the first incorporated school in New England for the education of young women alone. In the Constitution drawn up in that year by the first Board of Trustees, its purpose is thus stated: To form the immortal mind to habits suited to an immortal being, and to instil principles of conduct and form the character, for an immortal destiny.' This purpose has for eighty-nine years controlled the policy of the school."--[From Abbot Academy Catalogne.]
