home Of Hon. 5. F. Sulcer Monday
evening TO express appreciation TO
that gentleman for his effort in the
general assem- yin behalf of education
Representative Sulcer was much at.
fected by the presence OF the children,
and he said he felt sure his special
district bill would be a good thing for
the people in all the districts affected.
Miss Rosa Bell Hall gave a brief bi
ographical sketch Of our leading citi-
zen, and said that Mr.. Sulcer had
lived at Palestine thirty-tive years
and had been twenty-five years con-
tinuously school director. during
which time he had labored inces-
sanity TO raise the standard, and when
the time came TO strike a telling blow
he crowned his efforts with the CON
soldated bill, which passed the gen.
eral assembly without a ripple.
She said Mr.. Sulcer had the respect
of his colleagues and the approval OF
his constituents.
The children departed happy, hoping
the future to be brighter than the
past, after voting Mr., Sulcer a hos
pitable host.
There were several speeches, and
all spoke of the work OF organizing
the new school, which will go forward
as carefully as possible.
