Cleaning up
I've made this halfway legible, but there's still zero sources. The original text (replicated on this page too for some reason) mentioned the autobiography of the General Major guy, if anyone's interested in looking for it. Also, how does this story end? Does the school survive? I have to know! DoctorKubla (talk) 21:38, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
