Elias D. White
Tell. Story Of
First Sunday School
The following interesting inci
dent of many years -ago has come
to us from Elias t. White of
LaVerne, California, formerly of
Highlands. It will be remembered
that Mr. White's valuable article
on the early history of Highlands
appeared last year in the "Ten
Years of Progress" edition of this
newspaper. He has promised to
add to this ih the near future
some of his reminisences. which we
know our readers will welcome
Something over a year ago' (he '
appeared in these columns an ac
count of the founding of the first
Sunday School at Highlands, . back
in 1876. Readers may . remember
that Dr. Harry E. Kelsey, of Bal
timore, was tie one to discover
those old records and bring them
to the light of daj.
A story which may be of in
terest centers about -that little
portable melodian which made its
weekly trips from Mrs. Kelsey's
home to the old "Law House."
Mr. S. T. Kelsey first took it but
from time to time others - shared
the task of cohveying it back and
forth. Dr. Kelsey has told me that
he distinctly remembers John and
Zeb Alley assuming this part.
Now the story. One summer day
of 1876 a correspondent of one of
the large New York daily papers
was stopping over in the tiny vil
lage which was not much more
than a crossroads. He observed a
man carrying a small reed instru
ment and stopped to question
what it meant. It was T. B.
White; superintendent of the re1
cently formed Sunday School,
with the melodian on his shoulder.
When the correspondent learned
what he was doing he requested
Mr. White to stop long enough
for him to sketch the scene.
Possibly the sketch and story
appearing later in that great daily
was the first heralding of the
infant town to the world from
the metropolis of our nation.
