Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Case F. — R. E. Boy ; 12 years old when photograph was taken.
Well-formed, sight and hearing slightly defective. Was a dreamy 
boy, with a peculiar stubborn disposition, somewhat lazy, but inter- 
ested in certain things. Did well through primar)'-school course. 
Learned to read, and to write a good letter. Developed decided talent 
for music ; had a good baritone voice and played well on both trom- 
bone and baritone horn. Trained in carpentry, was slow but neat, 
and did excellent work. Absolutely truthful and trustworthy ; de- 
veloped a gentle and lovable disposition. Very sensitive, and resent- 
ing any supposed slight, when once he took a dislike, did not easily 
overcome the prejudice. Remarkably successful in the cultivation 
of flowers, showed considerable ability as a gardener. When 22 
years old he went out into the world, and has made an excellent liv- 
ing, utilizing all his acquirements as carpenter, florist, and musician. 
Nothing is known of family history except that his father was a 
drunkard.
