This is from a 1916 newspaper article Dist. of Brush College is no more, It has been absored by a progressive age - merged into the consolidated district of Spring Hill. Mr. N.F. Wood who purchased the building for the sum of $132, has moved it to his farm, and after remodeling, it will be occupied by his son, Emmet as a tenant. There are many pleasing and interesting associations connected with the district, being organized in the year 1852. The first school house was buiilt with logs, (hewed on one side) about 18 feet square, 8 feet hight to the square, clapboards for roof and a loft of native lumber and pucheons for a floor. The "cracks" were chinked and daubed with mortar made of lime and sand. A log was cut out almost the full length in the north, the space being filled by a narrow window in the east about two feet square supplied all of the light and when the sun was not obscured by lowering clouds, answered tolerably well. The seats were composed of slabs from six to eight inches broad,two holds were bored at each end to receive "legs" of different lengths for the small or large pupils. Pegs inseted in the walls just below the long windows upon which was placed a slaaaab, smooth side up answered the purpose of a writing desk. Three boards natiled to the wall three or four feet long smeared with oil and lamp black served as a black board. A cannon stove in the center of the room, a wooden pail and tincup constituted the furniture. Water was carried from the well of the nearest neighbor. I'll need to find the rest of the article. It will be a few days because I'm right in the middle of county fair.
