GEDCOM Note

Mother went to high school in Nauvoo. In spring and fall she and neighbor girl drove a horse and buggy about 8 miles one-way. In bad weather she boarded in town. She thought she was going to get all four years to she took all required classes and left the fun classes for last two years. It didn't work out. Her sister Lola came for a visit and raised such a stink that Grandpa would not let herreturn to school. It was all about Mom having too many clothes. She had one Sunday skirt and mettie, one for school and an older set to get by on.--- Ruth Bolton Green
