Little, graduated on 1883 with a B.S. degree and that he had written for Illini. Also I know of Dean Peabody's refusal to give him his diploma. It seems that he was always a rebel - refused to attend chapel, made a duplicate key to chemistry laboratory and was caught after hours, but his final indiscretion was the remark he made in the class prophecy he wrote - I am not sure of exact wording, but it ran something like this: 'I dreamed I died and went to heaven, and there was Kate Peabody, singing like a hen under an ash barrel on a July day.'. "After Dean Peabody died, and Arkle Clark became dean, my mother insisted that father write for his diploma. Arkle Clark had been my mother's Sunday School teacher - 1878???. "At any rate the diploma was finally sent, 1893 or 1894. My father had been issued a lifetime certificate to teach in the State of Illinois, and was Supt. of Schools in Momence at the time.". pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?25 Sep 2009 ?story Typed memories of Beth Little Harris (deceased). fG? pennylane20021 pennylane20021 added this to Little Family Tree_2011-05-11 ?18 Sep 2012 ______________________ Murder or Suicide? "His body was found in the Harlem River in New York that fall [1903], but not identified positively until 1906. Then Harriet (Mabel's mother) went to New York, and at last got permission to dis-inter the body which had been in potter's field all that time. The photographs which had been taken by police, together with dental charts which the dentist had given Harriet (grandma) matched the teeth still intact in the body, which had been embalmed and was still in good condition altho had turned coal black. The top of the head was gone on the right side - but the tiny hands and huge feet - all contributed to the positive identification, as well as the dates, etc." pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?25 Sep 2009 ?story Typed memories of Beth Little Harris (deceased) fG? pennylane20021 pennylane20021 added this to Little Family Tree_2011-05-11 ?18 Sep 2012 _____________ Morris, 4 generations_Edwin Morris, Spencer B Morris, May Morris Peck and Nora Ellen Pedk Edwin Morris, Spencer B Morris, May Morris Peck and Nora Ellen Pedk Four Generations pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?17 Sep 2012 ?Portrait / Family Photo Edwin Morris, Spencer B Morris, May Morris Peck and Nora Ellen Pedk Morris family, Mary Rose Benson Morris family2 pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?17 Sep 2012 ?Portrait / Family Photo Little, Henry Pearce or Pierce Henry Pierce Little?? pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?17 Sep 2012 ?Portrait / Family Photo The photo was labled HPL It looks like him in the chin and ears Tin Type Morris, Henry Merrit Henry Merrit Morris chef621 chef621 originally shared this to Davis-Stubenhofer Family Tree ?31 Aug 2011 ?Portrait / Family Photo Staley Little, Maudie Lee 1909-1987 Maudie Lee Staley (1909-1987) pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?20 Apr 2009 ?Portrait / Family Photo ?Little Rock, Pulaski, Arkansas, USA Morris Little, Mabel Leontine, ca 1893 Mabel Leontine Morris Little - abt 1893 pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?14 Sep 2009 ?Portrait / Family Photo fG? pennylane20021 pennylane20021 added this to Little Family Tree_2011-05-11 ?18 Sep 2012 Myers, Harriet Newell Harriet Newell Myers pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?17 Sep 2012 ?Portrait / Family Photo Pilot Hi Little, Brig Gen Pilot Hi Little pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?13 Sep 2009 ?Portrait / Family Photo fG? pennylane20021 pennylane20021 added this to Little Family Tree_2011-05-11 ?08 Nov 2012 Little, Morris Albert Morris Albert Little pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?17 Sep 2012 ?Portrait / Family Photo Morris Little, Mabel Leontine, ca 1908 Mabel Leontine Morris Little -abt 1908 pennylane20021 pennylane20021 originally shared this ?17 Sep 2012 ?Portrait / Family Photo Location: Illinois ?abt. 1908
