The following was included in the Saturday, September 30, 1899 Smithville Times
Newspaper.
As with a lot of microfilm of older documents, many parts of the list were illegible,
especially the lower part.

THE SCHOOLS OF BASTROP COUNTY

Table showing the School Communities organized in Bastrop County for the year
commencing September 1st, 1899, and ending August 31st, 1900; the aggregate apportionment to
the several communities, the balance left over from last year, and the names of the trustees,
with postoffice address.  On the list, some of the numbers had an * by the NO.  This is not
included here as the explanation on the source document was illegible.  The source document
had what appeared to be spelling errors.  These have been left in.
