>From Jackson's Oxford Journal, Saturday, January 6, 1866; Issue 5880. ABINGDON. Church Infant School. The new Church Infant School fot the town of Abingdon was opened on Thursday, Dec. 28, being the festival of the Holy Innocents. These schools owe their origin mainly to the exertions of Miss Charlotte GODFREY , who has for some time past maintained an Infant School in rooms wholly inadequate for the purpose. It was resolved about a year since to attempt to raise funds for erecting a room capable of holding 200 infants, with class rooms and suitable offices, and this good work was consummated on the 28th ult. The Privy Council, the National Society, and the Oxford Diocesan Board of Education have all contributed, and the remainder has been raised by voluntary contribution. The schools have been erected by Mr. THOMAS , of Abingdon, from designs furnished by Messrs. DOLBY and SPENCER , who most liberally placed their unpaid services at the disposal of the Committee. The entire cost of the building has been about 500 Pounds, and some further expense must be incurred before the rooms will be quite fit for use. The hour fixed for the opening was 12.30, and within a few minutes of that time the room was filled.
