Valdo Barreto wote at Facebook on 1st December 2025: os Irarás moravam em frente minha casa na Avenida Pedro de Toledo; os filhos eram o Vadinho, Paulinho, Joãozinho e Julião, que morreu em acidente de motocicleta em Brasília em 1960;
Eugenio Munhae wrote: Me parece ser na travessa com a rua 9 de Julho, pouco abaixo da rua Carlos Gomes, em frente da Farmácia Noturna, ao lado de A Elétrica.

Córrego Cincinatina in Marília in the 1950s
Por volta de 1950, na baixada da Rua Pernambuco passava um córrego, que dava p'ra gente molhar os pés aos domingos. Eu morava na Avenida Independência, entre as ruas Paraná e Mato Grosso, então era um tiquinho de casa.
Na foto, à frente eu (Oswaldo Mendes) no centro e à minha esquerda Irineu Bisterço Filho - atrás dele, de preto, minha mãe (Conceição) e do lado dela a dona Ida Bisterço, minha madrinha e mãe do Irineuzinho, com a filha Lúcia do lado esquerdo. (Arnaldo e Elza Birterço são os irmãos não presentes aqui).
O casal à esquerda e seus 3 filhos, sei que eram nossos vizinhos, mas não consigo identificar.
Arnaldo Nunes escreve: Beleza de foto e ótimo registro do córrego. Após cair no timbé, ou grotão, e correr em direção à Dirceu, esse riachinho (hoje bem poluído) passa a ser o Córrego Cincinatina, junta-se ao Córrego Cascata e desaguam no Tibiriçá.
Até o início dos 1960s era possível pescar mandis, tambius, lambaris, piramboias, traíras, bagres e até mesmo um ou outro piau.
Esse córrego passa onde era uma fazenda de meu avô e ainda era limpo. Ao lado da ponte, antes da subida para Dirceu, havia porto de areia e no verão, muita gente ia nadar ali, tendo havido até mesmo morte por afogamento. Hoje a água não chega ao joelho, mas pode matar por envenenamento.

Educandário Bento de Abreu Sampaio Vidal seen in all its glory... 3 great floors for the education of the destitute children of the poor and negleted population...
A bird's eye view of the compound which started in the 1930s with the construction first of Santa Casa de Misericórdia on Avenida Vicente Ferreira, 828; then the building of the Church of Santa Isabel (which is actually a mini-Saint Benedict church) in the 1950s on Avenida Vicente Ferreira, 980 (see the lonely building on the lower extreme left of the photo) and finally the erection of Educandário itself in the late 50s and early 60s (the 3-floor building on the upper extreme-left).
