News from the Past: Schoolhouse Takeover

St. Vincent School in its early days...
A lot of tramps took possession of the school house at St. Vincent, Minnesota, and after getting drunk used the school records for making a fire. It took all the town police officials and a number of citizens to lodge them in jail.
