A WIDOW'S THANKS

To the Editor of the Leader:  Please express through the columns of your paper 

my greatest appreciation for the contributions that reached me from Roanoke by 

a friend.  My husband was killed and left in the woods three weeks.  I was 

left with not even bread, with five little mouths to feed.  Your aid reached 

me in the sum of $46. for which I want to thank you all.  Wishing the 

charitable people of Roanoke long lives and much happiness.  Sincerely, Mrs. 

Luella Horn, Cragford, Ala. R.F.D. 2 [Luella Woodard-Horn]
