Is Herman's IN's son? Who is Alice? : Picture on p. 388 of a class & text: "Students at the old Blackburn Seminary are shown during February of 1905. The private boarding school was founded in 1900 by Rev. W. S. Blackburn, a United Brethren ministe. Rev. Blackburn served as teacher and Herman Threlkeld assistant teacher. Students in the front row are Carl Sutherland, Chariton; Sadie Clodfelter, Russell; Albert Auxier, Melrose; Olive Blackburn, Chariton; and Enoch Sutherland, Chariton.

The other building on the 'campus' ws the girls' dormitory. The school building burned to the ground in 1907, ending the seven-year history of Blackburn's Seminary."
