SLACK SCHOOLGIRL OF 70
WINS TWO GOLD MEDALS
Led Her Class and Was Late Once and
Then Only Three Minutes
The proud wearer of two gold med
als from the New York board of edu
cation for merit In study and attend
ance in the primary departmeut of
public school 157 Is Mrs Martha Har
mon who was born in slavery in Ken
tucky seventy years ago
For four years this schoolgirl has
been learning her three Its and she
takes great pride in the tokens she
has received showing how diligent her
work has been and how In all that
time she never missed school and was
late only once and then only three min
utes
When she questioned the principal
and the teachers they thought she was
getting Information for one of her
family They gave her the facts as to
enrolling and answered the timid ques
tion she finally put as to the age re
quirement of pupils
They had no idea she meant herself
when they told her that the only
qualification necessary was a desire
for education Then she astonished
them by asking -that her name he put
on the list
You they said Why you dont
really mean it do you
Yes I mean It she answered Im
only sorry that I didnt do It years ago
But if It aint too late now why I
want to learn all I can
So she was put In the first class of
the elementary department and she
has followed the course steadily since
being promoted with the rest of her
class and showing a real proficiency in
her studies though the teachers had
expected to indulge her thinking that
the long disuse of her mental facul
ties might have dulled them
But instead of lagging she led
Thats why she got the gold medal for
her work And her sense of punctual
ity was on a par In the worst storms
she put on a heavy coat and old fash
ioned mittens and trotted to school
with her books under her arm She is
absolutely unconscious of the fact that
she is doing anything unusual She
doesnt think that at her age she has
outlived her usefulness
Mrs Harmon was a girl when her
people took her into Ohio where slav

and it is said that her name was taken

Mrs Leonard who was the payee of
the certificate of deposit was at that
time sixteen years old She came into
possession of the certificate as soon as
it was found among her brothers pos
sessions but made no effort to draw
the amount from the Bank of Trenton
The question of the incorporation of
the Bank of Trenton which may have
undergone some change of incorpora

regard to the kind of currency which
John Richardson deposited are to be
considered If it were Confederate
currency it would have been good in
