"Reverend Alfred Lee Brewer (1831–1899) directed that the school open on a plot next to Saint Matthew's Church #1 and its Parsonage. Brewer supervised the school from its beginnings in 1865 until 1891. The school fashioned itself after an English "public" school, such as Eton or Harrow, along military lines."
