Jim Eagles Has Old Photo of 1899 Class At Corinth School

What is believed to be one of the oldest pictures in this area, is one taken
of students in the Corinth School and is in the property of Jim Eagles of
Winnfield who brought it in to the Enterprise office recently.  The picture,
taken in 1899, is too dim to reproduce for the paper, but Mr. Eagles named a
number of persons enrolled in the school at the time who are in the picture. 
At least 50 percent of the people in the picture are still living and are
residents of this area.
