Book Description
Excerpt from Souvenir of Denison, "the Gate City of Texas," 1872-1887 And nobly has that promise been redeemed. Ten months of public school in every year, free to every child within the city's limit, extending through a period of four teen years and still going on, is a record which no other city in Texas possesses and one of which Denison is justly proud. The single building which was erected at the start has been supplemented by another and another, until the city now owns three brick edifices for the education of white children, and one for colored, all filled to over owing and half a dozen business houses temporarily occupied besides.
