My Father John Pelton resigned from Phillips High School at Andover Mass. In order to come west to establish Schools in California. He came equipped with books, desks, etc. with the approval and assistance of educators as well as the then Governor Briggs of Mass. As the city of San Francisco had no funs for this purpose, he worked as a stevedore from Captain McCoudray until he had funds to pay his teachers so that the school might be free.
