Arnold James Hyde’s (1914-2010) second draft of a handwritten account about visiting relatives is titled “A Visit to Aunt Addies – 1919.” Hyde recounts traveling by horse and carriage with his parents, Troy and Rilla, and siblings over Stecoah Mountain to Tuskeegee to visit Rilla's sister, Aunt Addie and Uncle Tom. Hyde includes a section titled “A Mountain Man” about Forest Denton from Snowbird. Hyde also writes about his own life history including teaching and coaching in Polk County after graduating from college, and then coaching at Robbinsville High School. He talks about his early school days living on Atoah Creek, North Carolina and recalls when his dad was on the school board and the schools consolidated.
