LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT State of North Carolina i County of Edgecombe V Tarboro High School City of Tarboro ) We, the Senior Class of nineteen hundred forty-four, being in possession of a crammed mind and well-trained memory, being about to pass on into manhood and womanhood, do hereby declare this our last will and testament. We hereby rev oke and make void any former wills or promises made while we were in sound or unsound minds. SECTION I Article 1. To our parents we bequeath the love and appreciation for their trying to see us through school life. Article 2. To T. H. S. we leave our excellent example as students. SECTION II Article 1. To the faculty we leave the admiration of the seniors for their taking insults and wisecracks as harmless little jokes. SECTION III Article 1. To the Junior Class we bestow our well-earned treasures. Some of these are the senior dignity, unusual wit, wonderful, splendid grades, and the privi- lege of being the Pets of the school. May the junior class use these to their and others advantage. Article 2. To the Sophomore Class, who will soon be Juniors, we bequeath all the mistakes we have made. We learned much by these mistakes. We leave all the chewed up pencils, paper, and chewing gum found in our desks and behind radiators. Article 3. To the Freshman Class, who will soon be Sophomores, we leave the art of being handsome and beautiful so they can get hooked in the years to come. SECTION IV Article 1. Individually we desire to give our talents to those who need it most and those who will use them best; therefore we make the following bequests: I, Milford Ruffin, bequeath my art of posing to Mac Nicholson. I, Jack Jennings, leave my good looks to Wesley Midgette. I, Dale Creech, bequeath my silliness to Frances Lineberry. I, Frances Pollard, bequeath my quietness to Virginia Anderson. I, Buck Cherry, leave my childish ways to Harris Arnold. I, Walter J. Andrews, leave my baby smile to Little B. Leggett. I, Ralph Piland, leave my physique to Bobby Knight. I, Bruce Bullock, bequeath all my knowledge of women to William Marrow. I, Farmer Cullom, bequeath my beautiful grin to Nancy Warren. I, Curtis Pittanan, leave my tallness to Robert Rochelle. I, Charles Stott, leave my wonderful voice to Bill Bass. I, Sadie Mildred Merritt, bequeath my beauty to Frances Kenney. I, Irene Wood, leave -my love to Sunny Brown. I, Alene Long, leave a happy single life to the future old maids and batchelors ' of the Junior class. In testimony whereof we the class of ' 44 set our hearts and affix our seal this sixteenth day of March, one thousand nine hundred and forty-four. Curtis C. Pittman, Testator.
