THE GHOST OF CLAFLIN SCHOOL
Marash Girl and (rahmetli olsun) Harriet Stetson (Marash Girl's best friend throughout elementary school) both loved to read the Nancy Drew Mysteries, a series written by Carolyn Keene. Marash Girl had been gifted a set of these books by a customer of her father Peter. Because Harriet and Marash Girl sat next to eachother in fifth grade and were always abuzz with excitement over the latest Nancy Drew adventure, the teacher decided that the two girls should leave the classroom and retire to the third floor of that 19th Century brick building, (the original Claflin School in Newtonville, Massachusetts,) with the specific purpose of writing a mystery à la Nancy Drew . . . specifically, The Ghost Of Claflin School! Once the girls left the classroom during "English", the teacher never checked on them, and needless to say, the girls never wrote even a first draft of The Ghost Of Claflin School!
