​The Osgood School was built on Salem street near the Malden line in 1851 by Beaty and Bradlee at a cost of $3,375. It was moved to Wellington in 1883, and was used until the new Osgood school was completed in 1912. At first the lower room only was used for school purposes, but in the fall of 1885 the grammar and intermediate grades were moved to the upper room and the primary grades occupied the lower room. 
When one "visited Medford at the end of the 19th century, they might have come by railroad from Boston or by streetcar from Salem. What surprises would have greeted their eyes in the electric lights, telephones, and paved roads. Streetcars clanged through its streets. Wagons and carts and carriages crowded the roads. A few automobiles chugged noisily along."
Includes samples on fell, running, over casting, French dressmaker's fell, gusset, blind, eyelets, Crow's Toes, hose darning, buttonholes with a cord, patching, wool darning, half back, hem, feather, back, cross, chain, and etching stitching.
