I write to tell of my experiences during my last visit to old Lawrence. I left home in Illinois on the 14th; turned up in Ironton on the 15th, where I met quite a number of old-timers; got to the Register office at 9 a.m., where Rev. J. M. Kelly was waiting for me.
Ballard School
In about 1843 we were attached to the Ballard School District on Solida and the next two terms of school I attended were in this district. The teachers were Mr. Keith and John S. Kelvey. Mr. Keith was a cripple and had to use a crutch, but he could almost jump across the schoolhouse at one bound when he saw a pupil in mischief.
