The Journal Leon, Iowa December 20, 1883 Farmers are about all through gathering corn, Spelling School at West Eden Tuesday, the 11th, was a success. Literary at East Eden was a grand success JIMMIE HINES and NANNIE BROOKS were editor and editress of the paper. It was very good. The young folks of White Hall are taking an interesting part in the literary. GEORGE GAMMON is up and around again. We think there has been a fire because ELLSWORTH DYE has got a new suit of clothes. There is a young man who will get himself in trouble with the East Eden boys if he does not keep his tongue to himself. Girls, how did the taffy pulling go? JOE how did the dance go? We are sorry to hear of the misconduct of the West Eden girls. They had to be sent home from school. WALTER and LEANDER SHINN have come home to spend Holidays. -- BUSTED. ------------------------------------------------------------ Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert January 8, 2010 [email protected]
