I know you have these records on line but Kirkpatrick's book adds some
genealogy. This is just my way of saying thanks to you and the other fine people
who share so willing of their time and resources to help other genealogists.

Included are lots of pictures, and bios (of teachers).
Interestingly, included is a section on alumni, complete with
pictures of each discussed and a description of what they are
now doing. An example:
1883 - Mrs. Adaline ESHELMAN-RIGDON acted as assistant
kindergarten teacher and as a teacher in private schools
until her marriage. Since then she has taught a kindergarten
of her own, having two sons.
1883 - Luella B. THOMAS pursued her education no farther than
through high school. she was a glove-fitter for some time and
is now employed at Hartsook's Studio.
What I think is particularly nice about this book is that it has
over a hundred pictures of people from Marion at the turn of the
century.
