This is the first time I had ever heard of grades. We went to Lapeer for this County exam. I failed in one subject but was given another chance at it and passed. So I was through the eighth grade in the Spring of 1897 while I was still twelve years old and entered Hadley High School in the Fall before I was thirteen. During this period in the McIntyre school Marguerite Sullivan was our teacher and she continued to teach there most of the time until she retired. Soon after retirement she was stricken with arthritis and suffered until her death."

Samuel Wilkins used to walk 20 miles to attend Lodge in Flint. The apron passed into the hands of Samuel Wilkins from his father. After the death of Samuel Wilkins, into the hands of Seth Arnold, son-in-law of Samuel Wilkins, and then to Alexander Wells, a son-in-law of Seth Arnold, who gave it to John Simons, a grandson of Samuel Wilkins and a cousin of Mrs. Alexander Wells. John Simons was a charter member of the Lodge at Hadley, Michigan. At his death in 1923, it passed on to his only son, Rial E. Simons, Past Master of Hadley Lodge. Rev. Rial Simons has been a Methodist minister for 28 years and is now pastor of the church at Flat Rock, Michigan. The apron is now in the possession of Carl H. Simons, Member Lodge 236, Davison, Michigan. The apron is approximately 150 years old as it was worn around 1800 and is the same type as worn by George Washington, which now hangs in his memorial at Mt. Vernon. Note: #N00042
