When I was a child in the 4th grade, I read the story of the Superlative Horse. It isn't as long as the Epic of Manas.It does have some important messages in it.

The title of the story is very cool. It's great that you understood that it gave important messages even though you read it when you were very young👌 It must be an impressive story.
During grade four, daily our teacher would put the reader's name and the book's name written on segments of a caterpillar on the wall. I didn't read books. I devoured them. I read more books than most of the other students in the class combined. So much to learn, so little time to learn it in.
Your teacher was a valuable person who used an fun method to make writers and their books attention grabbing.
An awesome sentence, nothing can be said about it.
The sentence immediately after described me more:
If you have glanced at some of my recent posts, I am attempting to get a new paradigm of school started in Nigeria. As a way of encouragement of the future students, I will probably write about Northern Business College. It was a school founded in 1880 in my town, but set the standard for business training in all of North America. I was reading the Annual Review for 1889 and read these two names.
Delia and Sadie Warrilow were sisters of my grandfather.
Wow, what a stunning coincidence. It is both very proud and emotional to have valuable and useful people in your family. And you work for a very important job, this effort is also very valuable.
It would have been nice to have known those ladies at that time. Do you have a grandmother or great-grandmother still alive? Can you imagine what they were like when they were your age?
I am afraid the Nigerian experiment has fallen through. I had the easy part, supplying the capital. As is often the case, the limiting factor is finding people with the vision.
It would certainly be wonderful to get to know them, to hear their memories of their wonderful experiences.
One of my grandmothers is alive and I can say that she is a good friend. When they were my age, I can imagine that they had a very busy and tiring but also active life with their children. I think that their dreams or expectations from life were more basic things. Maybe I should have a more detailed chat with her.
I felt sorry for the Nigeria experiment. As you said, qualified people are needed to implement such projects, and it is getting difficult with few people.
I only knew one great-grandparent. As you might know, hockey is a passion for most Canadians. My great-grandmother would hide in the kitchen and peak around the doorway when her favourite team fell behind. She had led a difficult life. When she was between 13-and 15, she had to work as a maid in a hotel. She married a man 20 years older than her a few years later. Do you feel a little outraged at the difference? Most modern women would comment on robbing the cradle. My grandmother was born in the mid-1890s and lived to be 99.

As you can see, the average life expectancy was 45 years at the time. Unfortunately, I don't have a breakdown by sex, but I assume that women's life expectancy was much lower. I wish I could ask my great-grandmother how much of her relationship was "love" vs economic necessity. Perhaps that is a question that your grandmother could answer!

Perhaps her marriage was complicated by the semi-arranged marriage practice from that time and part of the world.
As far as Nigeria, I have no expectations.

Our parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents lay the foundations of our lives. How much wisdom could they impart when they died when they were little more than children.
