She was there to support and to say goodby to this group of girls that were off to school at the Presbyterian School for Mexican Girls in Kingsville. This school is now co-ed and is called the Pan American Presbyterian School. It is still located in Kingsville. Mrs Borden most likely payed most or all of the girls' tuition."
