A letter from Bob Sparks of Warner New Hampshire written en route to San Francisco discusses the Lumpkin School located one mile west of Meridian State Park in Bosque County. The white frame building 25 by 40 feet stood elevated above ground and housed a family after 1986 when it ceased to be a school. Sparks notes map orientation anomalies and asks why streets and property lines do not run true north. He also mentions Populist history and regional farmer groups.
The text traces the Populist movement from its 1891 goals of higher farm prices free silver and anti monopoly laws through its peak in 1896 with gains in state houses and U S Senate seats to its 1902 decline as members merged into major parties. It notes later use of the term populist and asks about Bosque County figures and conventions.
