It will be noticed that although we have left bequests to the Junior class soon to be Seniors to the Sophomores soon to be Juniors and to those who will in the fall become Freshmen we have made no mention of the present Freshman class which will be known as the Sophomore class in a few months We have left them nothing because by that time their selfvaluation will have attained such heights that nothing in our possession would be regarded by them as worthy of their distinction To our dear old school building itself we leave the peaceful quiet caused by our absence and any apple cores wads of gum or crumpled notes we may have left about To our principal we give and bequeath a sense of relief that we have at last been graduated pleasant memories of our four years together and a feeling of pride in any great deeds or noteworthy achievements owe much to his example and counsel We also give and bequeath to the teachers our very kindest regards and our sincere gratitude for their unfailing kindness and aid To the history of the Meigs High School we bequeath our illustrious deeds and our names as candidates for the Hall of Fame We also leave the words and music of our class song which though not beautiful is very durable Its sentiments and phrases have been in active use for the last hundred years and show no signs of fatigue as yet Finally we do hereby name and appoint as the sole executor of this our last will and testament our class advisors Miss Hannah Norton and Mrs I N Hooker In witness whereof we the class of 1955 the testator have set our hand and seal on this 25th day of April in the year of 1955 Edward Guffee, Lawyer !
