The following petition was then
presented to the board. The superin-
tendent did not think it advisable to
open the school at Onville and the
school board sustained him in his
opinion:
We, the undersigned patrons of
the Onville school respectfully petit
ton the Honorable School Board of
ST. Tammany Parish not to consolid-
ate the school at Onville with that
of Folsom unless the school be locat-
ed half way between the two points.
! If the consolidated school is located
at Folsom, as we understand will
be done, it will cause majority of
the Onville children to lose the bene-
| fit of the school on account of the
long distance to be walked.
