Excerpt from All About Winona: Winona Assembly and Summer School Association, Its History, Methods and Future Only those who know the facts can appreciate the audacity and boldness of such a move. The institution was loaded with debt. A recent addition to the small hotel was scarcely finished, and not fully paid for.
