Remembrance of an 1881 country school teacher
By W. A. Rutledge Henry Kracht lived a half mile north of the school house and served as school director with five children. He worked from dawn until after sundown, cultivating sixty-five acres of corn and forty acres of barley.

A looming storm approached, hail struck crops and damaged property, leaving Henry disheartened at dawn.
