The friends of the Five Points School held their annual Fall Festival Saturday, Sept. 10. A lunch of pork, soup beans, and fried corn bread was served to those in attendance. The school, built in 1876, was the first brick school house in Wells County and served until 1923, with brief re-openings until 1937.
