X ' n l 4 uaox-ws: 4 Y 1 'I 'I' 4 4 i The log cabin figured prominently i n this area as it did in other newly settled regions of America. Many pioneer children first saw the light of day in a log cabin-- but it was probably a log cabin far less com- fortable than its modern counterpart at the left, which benefited from the availability of modern building supplies. Abe Lincoln was not the only splitter of rails in the middle western area. The rail fence was once a com on sight around Pettis- ville. The supply of wood seemed unexhaust- ible and practically all the newly cleared fields were enclosed with fences of hand split rails. Like all man-made things these fences too have all but passed from the pic- ture and a bit of searching is necessary now to find a surviving one. The present school building replaced this two-story frame building which was built in 1871. It was the first school of any pre- tention in Pettisville. It stood slightly to the left and north of the present building. Its last two teachers were Miss Cora Beuchat and Miss Flora Dimke, both of whom taught later in the present building. The first two schools were small one- roomed buildings. One was located approxi- mately a t the site of Mr. V. R. Sunday's garageg the other stood about on the site of the Charles Gaiman home. The present building which replaced the 1871 building was built in 1929 and enlarged by the addition of a wing in 1950-51. -28-
