SEE ALSO 52474 House No. 25 Reprinted by order of the House of Representatives, February 4, 1833. Address of the Trustees of the New England
Institution for the Education of the Blind to the public. Boston : Dutton & Wentworth, 1833. The Institution had been in operation for five months and
wanted to report to the public. Some people are born blind, but the greatest number become blind by disease or accident. There was a brief history of
the education of the blind and how it was done in various European locales. Money spent on educating the blind was money well spent. Don't coddle
the blind child--teach him or her to read and write, have a useful skill, and to fit into society. The local facility was trying to use all the good
ideas Dr. Howe saw in Europe and invited the public to visit the Institution. (Digitized from a microfilm copy of title originally held by the
Massachusetts State Library).
