BSLOiW all J&en lis tftese present®, 

That I, John Adams, of Quincy, in the County of Norfolk, 
Esquire, in consideration of the veneration I feel for the 
residence of my ancestors and the place of my nativity, and 
of the habitual affection I bear to the inhabitants with whom I 
have so happily lived for more than eighty six years, — and of 
my sincere desire to promote their happiness, and the 
instruction of their posterity in religion, morality, and all 
useful arts and sciences, by contributing all in my power 
for these purposes, do hereby give, grant, convey, and 
confirm to the town of Quincy and their successors, forever, 
the two following tracts of land, viz. my Rocky Pasture, 
commonly known by the name of the Red Cedar Pasture, 
or the Centre Rock Pasture, situate near the Grist Mill, and 
opposite the house of Deacon Elijah Veazie, containing 
twenty five acres more or less ; — another tract of land, 
containing fifty four acres more or less, commonly known 
by the name of the Lane's Pasture, or the Mount Ararat 
Pasture, near the seat of the Hon. Thomas Greenleaf: 
To have and to hold to the said town of Quincy and 
their successors forever, — upon the conditions and provisos 
following : — Provided first, That the Selectmen of the town 
be authorized and empowered to employ a surveyor of 
respectable character for science and experience in the 
practice of surveying, to survey both these lots, ascertain 
their boundaries, and make an accurate plot of each of 



said tracts, to be recorded in the town books, within a 
reasonable time. Provided secondly, That the rent of the 
herbage of these pastures, together with the profits arising 
from the sale of wood, fuel of any kind, timber and stone, 
be strictly applied to the following purposes, viz. — To be 
placed at interest in some solid public fund, either of the 
Commonwealth, or of the United States, and the interest 
again placed at interest, as it arises, until the amount shall be 
sufficient with what the town may grant, other individuals 
subscribe, or the probable sale of pews produce, to raise a 
fund for the completing and furnishing of a Temple to be 
built of stone, to be taken from the premises, for the Public 
Worship of God, and the public instruction in religion and 
morality, for the use of the Congregational Society in said 
town ; and next after the completion of said Temple, that all 
the future rents, profits, and emoluments, arising from said land, 
be applied to the support of a School for the teaching of the 
Greek and Latin languages, and any other languages, arts 
and sciences, which a majority of the ministers, magistrates, 
lawyers, and physicians, inhabiting in the said town, may 
advise. Provided thirdly, That if there should be any gross 
corruption or mismanagement in the care of this interest ; 
or any notorious negligence, or any waste knowingly 
permitted, or connived at by the said Town, or by the 
Selectmen thereof, or by any other person, acting under 
its sanction or authority, and the same shall appear by the 
judgment of a Jury under the direction of the Supreme 
Judicial Court, the right to the property hereby conveyed 
shall be forfeited, and shall revert to the oldest male person, 
at the time living among my posterity. And I do hereby 
request my Honorable friends, Thomas Greenleaf, Josiah 
Quincy, my son Thomas Boylston Adams, Edward Miller 
and George W. Beale, Esquires, to give their advice to the 
Selectmen for the time being concerning the best mode of 
managing the said estate for the best interest of the town, 



and for the advancement of the objects herein before 
specified. And I do hereby constitute the said Greenleaf, 
Quincy, Adams, Miller and Beale, during their lives, to be 
a Committee, with authority to appoint an agent, annually, 
to superintend the lands, hereby conveyed, and whose duty 
it shall be to prosecute all trespasses, of any kind whatsoever 
made thereupon, such agent to be paid for his services by 
the town, such compensation, as the Selectmen of said 
town for the time being shall deem reasonable ; and the 
said Committee shall have authority forever, as any vacancy 
shall occur in their number, by death or by resignation, to 
fill the same by an election to be made, from among the 
most respectable, intelligent, and active inhabitants of said 
town. Provided also, That if the Episcopalian Society 
of the said town shall at any time hereafter be about to 
build a Church for the Worship of God, they shall have 
liberty to take from the land hereby granted, as much stone, 
as they may need to use in erecting such Church. 

In witness whereof, I the said John Adams have hereunto 
set my hand and seal, this twenty fifth day of June, in the year 
of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and twenty two.

At a meeting of the inhabitants of the town of Quincy, holden 
on the 8th day of July, A. D. 1822: 

Voted, the Hon. Thomas Greenleaf, Moderator. 

Voted, That the Town accept with gratitude, affection, 
and respect, the very liberal, valuable, and useful donation of 
the Hon. John Adams, with the restrictions and conditions 
expressed in the deed of conveyance, this day presented for 
their consideration. 

Voted, That the Town will adopt all suitable and proper 
measures to carry into complete effect the enlarged and lau- 
dable views, and benevolent wishes and intentions, of the vene- 
rable donor. 

Voted, That Daniel Greenleaf, Thomas Greenleaf, Ed- 
ward Miller, John Whitney, George W. Beale, and George 
H. Apthorp, Esquires, be a committee to wait upon the Hon. 
Mr. Adams, and present the thanks of the Town to him, and 
assure him of the grateful sense they entertain of the honor 
conferred on them, by this mark of his esteem and affection, 
and attention to their future welfare and prosperity, and also 
to assure him, that, valuable as the donation is, and highly as 
they estimate the present and future advantages that will result 
from it, they regard it with sentiments of peculiar veneration, 
as the gift of one, whose patriotism and virtues have cast a 
lustre upon the place of his nativity ; of one, who has so suc- 
cessfully devoted, for more than half a century, the energies 
of his mind, with his profound wisdom and learning, to the 
advancement of the best interest of his country; and to whom, 
under the smiles of Heaven, we are so largely indebted for 
our independence and prosperity as a nation, and for those 



free and well balanced constitutions of government, which 
alone can secure and perpetuate our inestimable privileges. 



m$L<®$B all JHen fcfi tUtm ^regents, 

That I, John Adams, of Quincy, in the County of Norfolk, 
Esquire, in consideration of the kindness" with which my 
former conveyance, dated the twenty fifth of June 1822, has 
been accepted, and in further consideration of all the motives 
enumerated in that instrument, and various other causes not 
necessary to be stated particularly, do hereby give, grant and 
convey to the inhabitants of the town of Quincy, in their 
corporate capacity, and their successors forever, the following 
parcels of land, to wit : First, six acres of Cedar Swamp, in 
the town of Braintree, in the tract called Hubbard Swamp, 
which I bought of Capt. Benjamin Beale. Secondly, my Pas- 
ture, situated partly in Braintree and partly in Quincy, con- 
taining seventeen acres and a half, which I bought of Elkanah 
Thayer. Thirdly, two pieces of Cedar Swamp, situated in 
Gardiner's Swamp, so called, one of which I bought of Caleb 
Faxon, the other of William Thayer, which, when I bought 
them, I understood were in Quincy, but which, I now am in- 
formed, are in Braintree. These are all which I know or 
suspect to belong to me, but if any other morsel should be 
found to belong to me in that town, I give it to the town of 
Quincy. Fourthly, my pasture in Quincy, formerly known 
by the name of Babel Pasture, containing fifty one acres, more 
or less, which I bought of the Hon. Cotton Tufts, as executor 
to the will of Norton Quincy, Esquire. Fifthly, eight acres 
of land in the town of Quincy, near the meeting house, 
bounded easterly on the county road, southerly on land of 
Lemuel Brackett, Esquire, westerly on my own land, as the 
fence now stands, northerly on my own land by a line to be 
drawn from the western boundary parallel to the line against 



8 

Mr. Brackett, so as to include Mr. Hancock's ancient cellar 
and well : To have and to hold all the foregoing tracts and 
parcels of land to the inhabitants of the town of Quincy, and 
their successors forever, in their corporate capacities, upon the 
conditions following : First, Provided that plots be taken by 
skilful surveyors, and recorded in the town books, within a 
reasonable time. Secondly, Provided that these lands shall be 
managed and conducted upon the same principles, under the 
same conditions, restrictions, limitations, forfeiture, and super- 
visors, and the profits applied to the same ends and purposes, 
with those in the former deed. Thirdly, Provided that when 
the objects, mentioned in the former deed, are obtained, a 
stone School House shall be erected over the cellar which 
was under the house, anciently built by the Rev. Mr. John 
Hancock, the father of John Hancock, that great, generous, 
disinterested, bountiful benefactor of his country, once Presi- 
dent of Congress, and afterwards Governor of this State, to 
whose great exertions and unlimited sacrifices this nation is so 
deeply indebted for her independence and present prosperity, 
who was born in this house ; and which house was afterwards 
purchased and inhabited by the reverend, learned, ingenuous, 
and eloquent Lemuel Bryant, Pastor of this congregation ; 
which house was afterwards purchased by and inhabited by 
an honorable friend of my younger years, Col. Josiah Quincy, 
and also inhabited by his son, Josiah Quincy jun. a friend 
of my riper years, a brother barrister at law, with whom I 
have been engaged in many arduous contests at the bar, who 
was as ardent a patriot as any of his age, and, next to James 
Otis, the greatest orator. Fourthly, That as soon as the funds 
will be sufficient, a school master should be procured, learned 
in the Greek and Roman languages, and, if thought advisable, 
the Hebrew, not to make learned Hebricians, but to teach 
such young men as choose to learn it, the Hebrew Alphabet, 
the rudiments of the Hebrew Grammar, and the use of the 
Hebrew Grammar and Lexicon ; that in after life they may 



pursue the study to what extent they please. But I hope the 
future masters will not think me too presumptuous, if I advise 
them to begin their lessons in Greek and Hebrew, by com- 
pelling their pupils to take their pens and write over and over 
again copies of the Greek and Hebrew Alphabets, in all their 
variety of characters, over and over again, until they are per- 
fect masters of those alphabets and characters. This will be 
as good an exercise in chirography as any they can use, and 
will stamp those alphabets and characters upon their tender 
minds and vigorous memories so deeply that the impression 
will never wear out, and will enable them at any period of 
their future lives to study those languages to any extent with 
great ease. 

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and 
seal this twenty fifth day of July, in the year of our Lord, 
one thousand eight hundred and twenty two.

At a legal meeting of the inhabitants of the town of Qtiincy, 

August 6th, 1822 : 

Tooted, Thomas Greenleaf, Esquire, Moderator. 

Voted, That the letter from the Hon. John Adams, this 
day presented to the town, be recorded on the town records, 
which is as follows, viz. 

Quincy, July 15th, 1822. 
To the Hon. Thomas Greenleaf, Daniel Greenleaf, Edward 
Miller, John Whitney, George W. Beale, George H. Apthorp, 
Esquires, — a committee appointed by the town of Quincy, 
on the 8th clay of July, A. D. 1822. 

Gentlemen, 

The resolutions of the town of Quincy, passed on the same 
day, and presented to me by you in their name, are perfectly 
satisfactory, and demand my affectionate gratitude. The har- 
mony and unanimity with which the town have accepted the 
instrument of conveyance, and their approbation of the re- 
strictions, limitations, and conditions, expressed in it, are very 
gratifying to me, and receive my best thanks ; nor should I 
omit to express my obligations to you, for the friendly manner 
with which you have communicated the resolutions to me. 

With great respect, esteem, and affection for the town, 
and sincere friendship for you, I have the honor to be their 
and your fellow citizen and humble servant. 

JOHN ADAMS. 

Voted, That the town accept, with sentiments of profound 
respect and gratitude, the very valuable present of the Hon. 
John Adams, of certain parcels of land situated in the towns 
of Quincy and Braintree, on the conditions expressed in the 
instrument of conveyance, dated July 25th, 1822, this day 
offered for their consideration, to be managed and conducted 
upon the same principles, and subject to the same restrictions, 



11 

limitations, and provisions, as are contained in his deed to the 
town, dated 25th June, 1822 — provisions, which receive their 
most cordial approbation, as wise and salutary guards, well 
calculated to preserve the property from waste, and to secure 
to them, and to their posterity, the full benefit intended by 
their beneficent benefactor. 

Voted, That Daniel Greenleaf, Thomas Greenleaf, Edward 
Miller, John Whitney, George W. Beale, and George H. 
Apthorp, Esquires, be a committee to wait upon the Hon. 
Mr. Adams, and present to him the thanks of the Town for 
this munificent donation, and express to him their sentiments 
of esteem and veneration for this additional mark of his re- 
gard and affection, and for the paternal solicitude it evinces for 
the welfare, prosperity, happiness, and respectability of this 
town, and assure him, that they will endeavor to evidence the 
high sense they entertain of the honor conferred, and the bene- 
fits bestowed, by a careful and vigilant attention to the im- 
provement of the property intrusted to their care, and by a 
strict and faithful application of the funds to the great and 
important objects designated, and also to assure him, that the 
selection of the Hancock lot, as the site for the school, awakens 
in their minds the most grateful, pleasing, and interesting re- 
collections ; and when, to the names of Hancock, Bryant, and 
Quincy, is added that of the illustrious founder, and liberal 
patron of the Institution, it cannot fail to animate the minds of 
youth with an ardent and laudable ambition to emulate the 
great examples thus placed before them ; and incite them to a 
close and diligent improvement of the advantages afforded, 
that they may be enabled to follow them, in their bright and 
luminous path of honor and of usefulness. 

Voted, That the committee, appointed to express to the 
Hon. Mr. Adams the thanks of the Town for the several lots 
of land, named in the deed this day under consideration, do 
also express the strong sense of gratitude with which the Town 



12 



accept the additional proof of his bounty towards them, in the 
gift of his very valuable Library.

Attest, Mottram Vesey, Town Clerk. 



m$L<&VB all $&m li£ tiitm present*, 

That I, John Adams, of Quincy, in the County of Norfolk, 
Esquire, in further consideration of the motives and reasons 
enumerated in my two former Deeds, do hereby give, grant 
convey and confirm to the inhabitants of the town of Quincy 
in their corporate capacity, and their successors, the fragments 
of my Library, which still remain in my possession, excepting 
a few that I shall reserve for my consolation in the few days 
that remain to me, on the following conditions, viz. Condition 
first, That a Catalogue of them be made, recorded in the 
town books and printed, together with the three Deeds, in 
sufficient numbers to perpetuate the remembrance of them. 
Condition second, That those books be deposited in an 
apartment of the building to be hereafter erected for a Greek 
and Latin School or Academy. Condition third, That these 
books be placed under the direction of the five gentlemen 
mentioned in my former deeds as supervisors of the Temple 
and School Fund, with the addition of the Rev. Mr. Whitney 
and the successive settled Ministers of the Congregational 
Society, and also of the future settled Ministers of the 
Episcopal Society, while they shall remain such. Condition 
fourth, That none of the books shall ever be sold, exchanged 
or lent, or suffered to be removed from the apartment, 
without a solemn vote of a majority of the superintendents. 
Condition fifth, The books may be removed to any place 
the Committee of the town shall direct, or remain where they 
are, at the pleasure of the Committee of the town ; locked 



13 

up and the keys held by the Committee during my life, and 
the pleasure of my Executors afterwards. Article sixth, I 
make no condition of this, but submit it to the consideration 
of the town whether it may be expedient to build the 
Temple on the Hancock Lot near the Academy . ? Nothing 
would be a higher gratification to me or more honorable to 
my memory ; and I could wish that the triangle on which 
the present Temple stands should be left forever as a 
common Training Field, and for other accommodations of the 
inhabitants of the town. Article seventh, Though I presume 
not to dictate to the town, yet it is my wish, that the building 
of the Academy and the establishment of a classical master 
should be provided for before the Temple, of which I see no 
present necessity, and I cannot think that this can ever be 
construed a deviation from the plan and intentions of the 
Donor, notwithstanding any thing in the two former deeds ; 
and if any descendant of mine should ever presume to call 
it in question, I hereby pronounce him unworthy of me ; 
and I hereby petition all future Legislators of the Common- 
wealth to pass a special law to defeat his impious intentions, 
and this I think can never be adjudged an Ex post facto law. 
Article eighth, It is not my intention or desire to make any 
condition of what follows ; but I ask leave to suggest to the 
town the propriety of applying the income of the Coddington 
School lands to the uses of this Academy, and to give 
authority to the superintendents of the Library to apply 
such parts of it, as they shall judge expedient, to the purchase 
of books annually to augment and increase this Library. 
Those books to be kept by themselves in separate alcoves 
to be denominated the Coddington Alcoves. That gentle- 
man's first residence was in this town, and he was an honor 
to it. He was a man of large and liberal mind. He 
removed with the excellent Roger Williams to Rhode Island. 
and became the father, founder, and first Governor of that 



14 

colony. This will be a proper memorial of respect and 
gratitude for that very ancient and noble donation. 

In testimony whereof I have hereunto put my hand and 
seal, this tenth day of August, in the year of our Lord one 
thousand eight hundred and twenty two.
