#52Ancestors-Week 35-Back to School: 1895 Olney, Illinois

Below is a school picture taken in around 1895 in Olney, Richland County, Illinois. My grandfather, Arthur Logan Adamson, is the first boy on the right in the front row. The teacher's name was Kate Nicholson, pictured in the middle of the center row.  I can't read the name of the school.  Interestingly (to me, at least), I have the original picture with the names of a number of the students on the back!
