The answer is yes. The general parameters of the Jackie story, up to the point of the apology, are based on a memory told to me by my mother, who did grow up in Portreeve and on a nearby farm. All the supporting narrative is fiction, created by me. Thanks for reading!
Ahh
The art of rendering an outhouse horizontal, and the stories of the families elders.
I really liked this column but am a little confused, Is it history or fiction?

A fantastic story, Trevor.
Your writing is amazing, puts us right in the stories and the places.
You have a real gift.
Thanks 'Mental. Always appreciate your support.
Very touching story. Reminds me of the little school I attended growing up in SW Oklahoma. People are people everywhere.
They are, indeed. Thanks for the comment.
