PLATTEVILLE SCHOOL.

This school was established on the 28th of February, 1866, by authority conferred by chapter 216 of the general laws. The building and grounds of the Platteville Academy having been donated, the school was opened on the 9th day of October, in the same year. The building has been repeatedly enlarged, and it accommodates the school liberally at present.

Platteville is a city of 3,087 inhabitants, pleasantly situated on the rolling ground between the Platte and Sinsinawa Mounds, in the midst of a fine agricultural region. The location is eminently healthful, and the community is deeply interested in the success and prosperity of the school. Students will find few temptations to idleness or dissipation, but will meet with encouragement to faithful work and upright conduct.

Platteville is the terminus of a branch of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, connecting with the Illinois Central at Warren. It is reached from the north and south by the Chicago & Northwestern Railway, and has connection with points on the Chicago, Burlington & Northern Railroad. Stages run daily to interior towns.
