20 POINTS!! Read the excerpt from Archibald Murphey’s 1817 report to the North Carolina senate. This plan for establishing primary schools is simple, and can easily be carried into execution. . . . It enables every neighborhood . . . to have a primary school, at the cheap price of a small lot of ground, and a house . . . sufficient for the purpose of the school. Were these schools in full operation in every section of the State, even in the present state of our population, more than fifteen thousand children would annually be taught in them. These schools would be to the rich a convenience, and to the poor, a blessing.
