Thanks to the family of Nellie Woodard Daniel and to the Ernest Daniel Family for sharing the photograph. Doyne Heffley, Devoe Cowell and Faye (Taylor) Davis for identifing students.

Devoe Cowell says:
Colleen, the picture you sent was people from several classes, from 1935 to 1939. This picture was probably made about spring of 1935. The group is the Euclidian Literary Society. I will send information about individuals later. Faye Taylor Davis supplied part of this information. Devoe Cowell, June, 1996.

Doyne Heffley says:
Colleen, it has been 62 years since we made this picture, my next birthday I'll be 80 years old. I remember all their faces but, not all the names. Thank you for everything. Doyne Heffley, June, 1996.

Colleen's Note:
From this group of euclidians, I am still in touch with Harry Sutton, Doyne Heffley, Devoe Cowell, George Wheeler and Alice Gilmore (April,1998) the deceased now known to me are Ernest Daniel, John Paxton, Raymond Taylor, and Robert Gilmore.
