    • With the exception of a few intervals the instruction in the German language has been given in the Berlin schools from the earliest days. Bishop Eby taught German, and German only, nearly every winter from 1818 to 1844. Between 1844 and 1857 German was taught by Messrs. Benjamin Burkholder, Elias Eby, Frederick Gottlieb, Adam Ruby and John Klein. Since the opening of the Central school in January, 1857, the German teachers have been Messrs. Rudolf Junk in 1860; Nicholas Matzenbacher
