■Over we * cf While Chapel school

where me family of the late J. T.
i Hamilton was reared and where
j-ont- of the children weiv barn.
Back in 1872 Mr. and Mrs. J. T.
] Ham ?ton ant! their two small chil-
dren, Aaron and r,ta. left the state
| af Iowa in a covered wagon for a
| long, long trek across the thinly set-
| lied Country in search cf a home in
1 Texas. Early In 1873 they crossed
I he' lint and three years later set-
tled In what Is now White Chanel
community. The next .year, 1877,
they erected n home, the little lag
cabin that is still standing. Arch
Hamilton, their son. and family
new lives on the old home place in a
modem farm dwelling.
All were large ranches around
their little home and their only
neighbors were cowboys. Mrs. Hnm-
: lie it i Aunt Julia, as she is known
b, allt praises the cowboys highly
for their kindness. Their first milk
cows were furnished them free by
the eowboys and never was there
anything stolen. Aunt Julia teealis
that there were Indians and many
j tulfalo in the surrounding country
land, that their main meat supply
j vu,; the choice.it of buffalo hams
rend wild turkey. For a long time
[ ail groceries were hauled from .Fort
Worth in a covered wagon
Mr. Hamilton died in 1900, but
during his lifetime he was an active,
| building, pioneer and that spirit
jrtill prevails in the children and
I grandchildren. Aaron, the eldest
Iron, lives in Gates, Okla. Eva, Mrs.
; M. Hill, lives In Runnels county.
| Bertha, Mrs. Cam Shields, lives at
j Novice. Mrs. Shields' daughter, Mrs.
J. L. Farmer, is a teacher in the
Novice school. B. F. Hamilton lives
in' White Chapel community near
the old home place.
Aunt ‘Julia was born
fello#, once sheriff of Coleman
ceuntv. The next wns Marlin Smith
and the next was E Williams.
For the first time since it was
built, the old stone house has under-
gone Us first remodeling. Mr. and
Mrs. B. F. Hamilton, the present
lefscrr, have had the v.ood-work
remodeled, the. walls calciatln-
ed, the outside tcitehed up and re-
reefed with modern asbestos
