Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXIX SCHOOLS AND RATTLESNAKES The schools of this county were at first conducted on the old subscription plan, says W. S. Wilkinson, in a paper on the pioneer schools, read before the Historical Society, in 1905. Some one would go around the district with a subscription paper and the head of each family would subscribe so many scholars for the term at the price stated in the paper. If they secured a sufficient number of pupils the teacher was hired and the school went on. If not, the effort was a failure. Many a subscription paper has gone by default by not securing the required number. The wages paid were about ten dollars a month and the teacher boarded 'round among the scholars, boarding a week at one home, and the next week at another. Girls frequently taught for as low as eight dollars a month. Money was scarce then and the teacher sometimes had to take part of his wages in trade. The schools of the early days were of two kinds. There was the "loud school," and the "silent school." The silent school was where the pupils prepared their lessons silently, as at the present time, and the loud school was where they prepared their lessons in a loud voice all at the same time in school. Both the loud and silent plan had their advocates. In the loud school one scholar would be preparing his spelling lesson: B-a-k-e-r--baker; s-h-a-d-y-- shady; 1-a-d-y--lady; t-i-d-y--tidy; another his reading lesson: "The boy stood on the burning deck, whence all but him had fled," and another: "Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as cotton and everywhere that Mary went, the lamb would go a trottin'." I think those were not the words in the book, but something like. They would all be reading their lessons over in a loud voice at the same...

Book Description
Excerpt from History of Madison County, Iowa, and Its People, Vol. 2: Illustrated On the 24th of July, 1872, 'mr. Danforth was united in marriage to Miss Lida Sturman, who was born in Clay county, Missouri, March 19, 1845, a daughter of John B. And Margaret (wamsley) Sturman, both of whom were natives of Ohio, where they were reared and married. They went to Missouri about 1843 or 1844 and the father there followed the occupation of farming. In 1848 he brought his family to this county, settling on North river among the pioneer residents of this part of the state. He assisted in laying out the town of Winter set and was otherwise connected with the important events which have left their impress upon the history of the city and county. About 1863 he left the farm and removed to Winterset, where he engaged in the drug business for two or three years. He then embarked in the hardware trade, in which he continued for several years, after which he retired, having won a substantial measure of success that enabled him to enjoy throughout his remaining days not only the comforts but also many of the luxuries of life. He was born November 17, 1813, and passed away on the 24th of December, 1890. He held membership in the Methodist Episcopal church and guided his life according to its teachings.
