Being only carefree, impoverished and improvident minors and mendi- cants, our estate is in Spain and of no more than imaginary value, where- fore we make no disposal thereof in this, our first and sole testamentary document.

By Us, The Seniors of H29' XVahoo High School. Gibb' The Seniofs Journey On September, 1925. we boarded the train of Hard Study, under the supervision of Engineer Soderburg. As a side trip we passed through the mountains of Latin. The atmosphere was laden with fragrance of Deponent Verbs and Indirect Discourse.
