    I REMEMBER - a reminiscence written for a family book.

    'I am Jacob Fehr, born in 1917, the 5th child of Jacob and Helena Fehr, in the Mennonite school district of Schoenau, 5 miles north west of Altona, Manitoba. ... Our farm home was located on the east half of Sec. 23 Range 2 Township 2 WPM [west of the prime meridian], which places it about 10 miles north of the U.S. border and about 16 miles west of the Red River.'

    'At age 17 a ruptured appendix, requiring a couple of operations, 9 days apart, and a month in the Morden hospital, changed my life. ...

    Father was convinced that God had saved me from death for some good reason, but probably not for the hard physical work of farming. So it was arranged that I would live at grandparents [Peters] place the following year where aunt Katherine [Peters], who took a year off from her teaching job, arranged for me to take Gr.9 by correspondence under her supervision. During the next 3 years I completed Grs. X and XI at the Mennonite Collegiate Institute, a residential high school at Gretna, Man., and Gr. XII at the Altona High School in 1940. During the summers I worked on the farm.'
