Vandalism, 1886

From the Riverside Daily Press of September 23, 1886:

"Miss Alfaretta Wood commenced her school in Jurupa district, West Riverside yesterday with a good attendance of pupils. During the vacation the school house has been broken open and a very fine microscope that was left in the library was broken to pieces, and the building was defaced considerably. The trustees have put the interior of the school house in good shape, and propose to raise $600 to improve the exterior, set out trees, etc., and supply new seats and desks of the latest approved pattern.
