SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the Senior Class of One Thousand, Nine Hundred Forty-six of the Grayville, Community High School of White County, of the State of Illinois, as usual, being of unconscious state of mind and overfed bodies, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament. We do hereby disregard all former statements, promises, or any other written or verbal declarations. We, the Senior Class, do hereby will and bequeath to our beloved sponsor, Miss Jamerson, the Juniors, on-coming Seniors, and our sincere wish that they may be as conscientious in their studies as we have been.
