FIRST SCHOOL HERE IN 1S47

end, and rough sticks driven in them
for legs. They were so high that
little fellow sitting on one could not
touch the floor with his feet
Every pupil was in a aclass to him
self, and the pupil that arrived at
the school house first in the morn
ing would recite his lessons to the
teacher first all that day. In study
ing we would all pronounce the
words out loud.
The main settlement road was
about fifty yards from the back of
the school house and one dark and
cloudy evening, in December think,
we pupils we're sitting around good
fire, studying, when we heard a
young fellow out in the road shout,
School butter" All noise was in
stantly hushed, and soon we
heard again, school butter" All
books were then closed and silence
prevailed; and soon again we heard
him say, School butter" Then ev-
cry boy dropped his book, was on
his feet and out at the door in
double quick time without permis-
sion from the teacher. Some went
east, some west and some north to
surround him, and in short time
we caught him about a fourth of a
mile from the creek, where there
was a deep hole of water. We
marched him to the creek, took off
his shoes, coat and hat and pushed
him off the bank into eight feet of
water He swan out, put his dry
clothes on and hit the road for home,
which was about a mile away.
When we returned the teacher
asked, What did you do with that
fellow" We told him that we put
him in the creek He said, Get
your lessons"
This was the first school ever
taught in this neiehborhood; and the
above named pupils we're all that
lived near enough to the school
house to attend the school, and
some of them had to walk two and
a half miles to get there,
There are only five of us now liv-
ing. These are Jerry Thomson,
Narcissus Thomson, who live in Or
eeon, and Marguerite and Elvira
Sloan, living in lizard county, Ark
ansas, and myself, The youngest of
these five will be seventy-siX years
of age sometime during this year

In the year 1847 Eli Moser, our
nearest neighbor, had a claim on for
ty acres of land joining fathers land,
which had a very good hewn pine
log house and about ten acres in a
good state of cultivation. Father
bought Mr.. Moser's claim to this
land, he (Moser) retaining the
house. In the contract father was
to help Moser move the house to
his land to be used exclusively as a
school house. At that time there
was no school in this part of the
country and no school had ever
been taught here.
After crops were laid by, the house
was moved and rebuilt on Moser's
land between their house and ours,
one mile northwest of Evening
Shade, near a good spring on Piney.
A stick and dirt chimney with a
six foot fire place was built. The
flooring planks, in the absence of
nails, were laid down loose. The
cracks in the house we're chinked
and daubed with sticks and mud.
Father and Mr.. Moser hired a
teacher named Floss. In the fall
about the middle of November,
1847, Floss opened his school with
the following named pupils, to,wit:
Scrap Cathey, Martha Cathey, Hen
ry Masters, Mary Masters, Dudley
Williams, Cordelia Williams, Eliza
beth Sloan, Eliza Sloan, Frank Mos
er, Marguerite Sloan. Martha Sloan,
Elvira Sloan, Ann Moser, John Heff-
ner, Jerry Thompson, Narcissus
Thompson, Louisa Sloan, Newton
Sloan, William Sloan, Hannibal
Southworth, Mary Southworth,
Francis Scruges, Virgil Southworth,
Lafayette Southworth, John Shaver
and myself,
The teacher was very good in
structor, but as ill and cross as an
old cat. And whip my! how he
would use the switch. One poor
orphan boy, John Heffner, he whip
ped several times a week We
thought he whipped John just to
keep in practice.
Webster's blue-back spelling book
and Smiley's Arithmetics were the
text books used. More than one
half of us pupils were beginners,
this being our first school,
The seats we're benches made of
pine slabs, rough from the saw
mill, with two holes bored in each

many a clever item OF incongruity in
apparel.
King Future was portrayed by Mr..
