Summary

Portrait of Thomas Boutflower Bennett (1808-1894): Writing, English and Bookkeeping Master at the Adelaide Educational Institution for 1864. The Adelaide Educational Institute was a privately run non-sectarian academy for boys founded in 1852 by John L Young. The academy focussed on moral philosophy, physiology, political economy and mechanical drawings. The academy closed in 1880 and Prince Alfred College was a strong alternative for educating Adelaide's young men. He later taught at St Peter's College. His headstone lies in Moonta Cemetery. Mr Bennett is shown in this photograph wearing his academic gown and mortar board.
