Notes
Formerly F7201.; Hand-written on back of photoprint: "One of the classrooms in the school-house - This photograph is believed to have been made about 1906. The school-house was a two-story frame building. On the main floor were two class rooms. The upper story was used for public gatherings such as dances lodge meetings, church gatherings. The building was condemned in about 1920. In 1939 incident to consolidation of the Eldora school district with that of Nederland, the building was sold, and torn down. The teacher, standing at the left side of the room is believed to be Mrs. Amos Entwhistle, whose husband was a mining man in Eldora at that time.
