From an interview withLeila Tidd,
Tiddville Well we had the Bible in our day when I went to school. And we used to have to say a verse of scripture or something when they called our names early in, you know in the morning, the first thing, and ah, well we had to ah study our lessons, but I didn't have to study, that was the great part of it. I'd look at the book. I didn't have any books, you know, I couldn't afford to but any or my somebody, who ever had me,and so, we used to have to, people would give em to us. We walked, my brother and I, way up to Centreville, to the lake, or to the end of Lake Midway there to a house.They built a new one now, and we walked up there, my brother and I, in our bare feet on dirt roads, to get some books for to go to school with.
