FORMULA

(n-1)n(n+1)(3n-10)/24.

If we define f(n,i,a)=sum(binomial(n,k)*stirling1(n-k,i)*product(-a-j,j=0..k-1),k=0..n-i), then a(n-1) = f(n,n-2,-1), for n>=3. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Dec 20 2008]

MAPLE

with(combinat): for n from 3 to 100 do for k from n-2 to n-2 do printf(`%d, `, sum(binomial(l, k)*k^(l-k)*stirling1(n, l), l=k..n)) od: od:
