Like as the setting sun that is about to depart from view below the horizon, we, the Class of 1956, recall with misty eyes the golden sunrise of our freshman year. From that September morning in 1952 when Mr. Skelley offered us compasses to locate ourselves to this June day in 1956 when the faculty exclaims Hail and Farewell,’’ we can only remember four years blessed with happiness. Now as we see the light of our high school careers growing dim, and as we hear our happy voices fading away to stillness, we know that our minutes at Leicester High School have hastened to their end. Therefore, we, the Class of 1956, realizing that the bonds which have united us through¬ out our high school days are dissolving and being of sound mind and possessing happy memories, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.
