Royal Manfull is one of my great benefactors as he was instrumental in my obtaining the janitor's job at the Augusta Schools which I so desperately needed and he also hired me in 1924 in the summer to work on his farm.  He was a church man, a gentleman and a nice fellow to work for as he taught me many things.  He is one of the outstanding men in my life as without him I would not have been able to accomplish many, many things. 

Royal and Laura Manfull were both nice people and when I worked for Royal they had two daughters, Iola and Leota, but after I left the Augusta area a son was born and he still is important in Augusta and the Augusta church.  I recall Royal as a teacher in the Augusta Christian Church, and a good one, too.  Very nice people, substantial people.  Royal's father was George Manfull.
