History in a Pecan Shell

What little is known or remembered of Comet can be summed up in two sentences:

Besides the post office, which operated from 1891 to1905, Comet had two stores and ten people in 1896. The Comet school reportedly had 30 students in 1899, and by the 30's the town had vanished.
