Butterfield, Jack and Jim Tormey, Lottie Rozell and Eva Rozell, Frank Hyde and T. C. Walker. Other teachers were Coleman Smith, Jim Dexter, Dolly Fox, Will Clancy, Fanny, Mabel, Clara and Mary Walker, Jessie Jones, Dora O'Donnell, Catherine Carrol, Anna McGinnis, Della Spencer and Lyle Spencer. At one time sixty pupils were in attendance when the school room was divided and two teachers were employed. The first directors were Dennis McGinnis and Fred Rozell, who served many years. Forty-eight children from four families, namely the Coyles, Hart, Markey and Moran families, received their basic training within its walls. Many are the names and initials found carved on desks and walls of those who "entered to learn and went forth to serve", and now are scattered to the four corners of the earth. The school building for many years served as a community center and a place of public gatherings, and with its passing go memories of religious services, entertainments, medicine shows, broken bones, thick slices of bread and butter, shin-digs in the hall, Butterfield saw mill and saw dust pile, teachers who used the rubber hose and some who pulled hair to enforce discipline. The countryside is dotted everywhere with abandoned school houses, a sign of the changing times in which we live, and many a community could write the same story. Another landmark has gone. The writer is indebted to R. A. Butterfield for much of this information.
