| ANOTHER LETTER TC
RECALLS SCHOOL!
A letter recalling experiences as '
a student here 65 years ago under
the teaching of Mrs. Clara Sherill
from G. D. Hall, now of Lake View,
Texas, and printed in the Scout recently
has proraped another letter
from J. W Henry, former Cherokee
county boy, now of Whitewright,
Texas.
It reads as follows: When I saw in
the Cherokee Scout an account of
that red-headed boy who was your
pupil as he stated when yon tought
school in the old building at the south
er.d of Joshua Hall farm, I began to
count backward and I can't figure i
out that it has been 66 years.
I wa? a white-beaded boy 10 years
old and attended this school in the
summer. If you remember part of the
floor was taken up and we boys sat
on the sills and let our feet hang
down to the ground. When recitation
J came we climbed to the floor and
itoed a mark to read or spell as the
-occasion demanded. Mr. A. L. Martin,
now county superintendent, was
a little black headed boy and attended
the same school.
There was another log hut just
east of the building in which we boys
studied until our classes were called.
In 1935 during August I visited
this place and drank water from
the spring that served your pupils
years ago. This spring still flows
and waters thirsty men, women and
