In the early days of Hopkins Academy four of the principals each found a wife among the assistant teachers. In 1831 one hundred and fifty young men and one hundred and twenty-one young women were enrolled among the students, one hundred and forty- eight of these being from out of town. The fame of the academy extended west and south, and pupils from Ohio, Georgia, Virginia, Alabama, and Florida entered to prepare for college. In 1831 the question arose as to the rights of the trustees to allow ...the benefits of the school to extend to so many outside of the town, and the matter was taken into court and decided in favor of the trustees. As free high schools became common, academies everywhere declined, and the insti- tution in Hadley suffered with the rest. Finally in 1851 began the last controversy about the Hopkins Hopkins Grammar School and Academy 95 fund, when in town-meeting Samuel Nash, Esq. , Dr. Bonney, and P. S. Williams, Esq. , were appointed a committee to see if the school could not be made free to the town.
