I. The Modrell Schoolhouse
Charles Hindes: I think we agree on the location of the Modrell school house.
Bob Zybach: I saw you stopping when I was talking with Norman. Theres a little area that's not plowed underneath that oak tree and theres that little ravine next to it.
Charles Hindes: Yes.
Bob Zybach: That's right where Charlie Olson showed me that he stayed with Mrs. Blake" in about 1903.
Charles Hindes: Okay, and theres a patch of weeds and thistles around there.
Bob Zybach: Yes.
Charles Hindes: That's right where the house stood.
Bob Zybach: That's just what he told me, too, so we got confirmation 90 years later, so that's gotta be pretty near it.
Charles Hindes: Yes.
Bob Zybach: I wonder why they're not plowing that. I'm going to have to find out.
Charles Hindes: Yes. Well, I better run him [Norman] back, Bob because he is getting impatient.
Bob Zybach: END OF TAPE
