The evidence

• “half a mile north of the village, in the town of Center. That building remained in use on its first location until 1853, when it was removed into the village of Footville, and a school taught in it until the Methodist Church was erected, when pupils and preceptor moved into the basement, which they continued until the destruction of the building, in 1875. That same year, a new building was erected, at a cost of f2,600.”
