Foreword I his year, we, the Krabba Staff, got our collective heads together and decided to attempt to depict not only our school life, hut also by a few sketches, to give some- thing of the growth of our town. We looked back to the original Indian V ill age with the inhabitants sitting out- side their teepees. Then we saw the Landing of Braddock during the French and Indian War. We next attempted to picture the happy side of the life of the slaves. Our next drawing takes us to the burning of old St. John’s during the War Between the States and finally we come to the center of our present town. We have enjoyed Irv- ing to picture a few scenes in the development of Hampton and we have enjoyed gathering a record of this year at school. We put this book in your hands with llie hope that it will bring back to you in future years some happy memo- ries of your stay at H. H. S.
