1803 - L. Mar. 18; ed: 2/1 - The school bill passed the Ohio house unani-
mously. There were three opposing votes in the senate. This law (the
credit is due to Martin) will put schools on their feet again. Townships
will have the power to levy the rate of taxes for school purposes. Town-
ship treasurers and boards of education are to make annual reports. Pro-
visions for a school for colored children are made definite. "It will
put increased vigor into our country schools, which is so greatly needed."
