John Cofield's Oxford and Ole Miss: Leslie's on the Square

Published

on

Many a sweet memory of the soda fountain at Leslie’s still lives right there on the Square.

The day’s final bell rang at the Grammar School down the sidewalk and into the sunshine we spilled.
For a few years there, we all had the run of the place.
