I learned more about history from historic novels. They got me interested, so I looked things up to see how close to the actual facts (as far as they are known, anyway). http://www.chicagonow.com/dennis-byrnes-barbershop/2011/12/publication-date-set-for-my-historical-novel-about-the-war-of-1812/
I hear ya Monty. I remember one teacher always made references to 3:10 and whether or not we would be allowed to leave at that hour, but I sensed she thought of 3:10 as the time she’d be free herself for the day.

Monty speaks truth. Our bell was at 3:15 and people were already run down by then.
