On July 11, 1833, The Sewing Society of All Saints Episcopal Church opened
The School of Industry with eight students. It was operated with The
Episcopal Orphans Home and Free School Society from 1837 until September of
1858, when it was closed.


On July 11, 1900, Mrs. Elizabeth Marman, of South Market Street, Frederick,
was seriously burned when she ignited the fuel while filling her gasoline
stove.
