QlaU Wdl I ' ve lugged this old brief case around for a whole term. I have to get a will written. I think I may need some help, but if Alvin McClellan will just open up that typewriter case, I ' ll start dictating, or maybe you had better take it down in shorthand first. That will be faster. Got a notebook handy? Now, let me say- -don ' t take this down yet--let me say this is a very val- uable docximent that I am going to dictate. An important, but poor, client of mine has asked me to draw up this document. Of course, I need the money; but you know how it is, you can ' t refuse an old friend. This client of mine has certainly been a good friend for a long time. This client of mine is going on a long journey. I ' ve a hunch that this client is going to have a brilliant future and when fortune comes in, I am sure that I ' ll get my share of it. My old friend will not forget me. These hazardous days of flying all around in an airplane makes people stop and think. They want to make arrangements for their property. They want to leave it to certain people. So I have to draw up this will for my client. Now take this --We, the Seniors of Aldie High School, being mindful that our school days are about over, desire to leave, devise, and bequeath our earthly possessions as follows: Alvin McClellan wills his Model-A to Mason Johnson hoping he can get some use out of it. Galen Glass leaves his talking to David Alexander. Betty Cooper leaves her athletic ability to Lucy Kirk. Margaret Shackelford wills her sweet personality to Evelyn Glascock. Keith Byrne leaves his ability to get along with the freshman girls to Fred Tate. Randolph Tate leaves his eye lash curler to Alfrey Piggott. Harold Thompson leaves his worn out bubble gum to Robert Siegfried, hoping it will not go to waste. Peggy Gordon wills her winning smile to Peggy Downs. Lawson Cockerille wills his high scholastic standards to Sam Rhodes. Maude Marshall values her possessions too greatly to give them away. Jean Ralph leaves her attractiveness to any lucky girl in the Sophomore Class . Mary Ann Kirk leaves her ability of leadership to Rebekah Ward. Llewellyn Payne leaves his cowboy boots to the Hill Billies in Aldie. I, Edwin Cross leave the Last Will and Testament of the Senior Class to the person who has the privilege of writing it next year. And lastly, we do hereby appoint our principal, Mr. R. Myers to be the executer of this, our Last Will and Testament, and reposing confidence in him, request that he be not required to give bond for the faithful performance of his duties. He has done a good job of administering to us in high school, and we believe he will have no difficulty in carrying out our wishes herein stated. In witness whereof we have here unto set our hands and signatures to this valuable document this 15th day of May, 1951. Witnessed by: Signed: Senior Class of Aldie High School Ben Rhodes President of Junior Class Mrs. Virginia Elgin, Class Sponsor Now, type that up when you have time, so that we can get it all signed and witnessed at our next stop enflight for New Horizons. Edwin Cross
