Mrs. S. R. Lee, of Cary, leaves this 
week for Augusta, Ga., where she will 
reside in the future. Pulaski loses one 
of its best and most useful women by 
her removal and her loss will be keenly 
felt, especially in the upper part of 
the county, where she was known and 
esteemed by all for her splendid 
accomplishments and many noble traits 
of character. For the past nine years 
she has been writing the news 
happenings of Cary for the Dispatch and 
News and was one of our best and most 
faithful correspondents. It is with 
much regret that we give her up and our 
best wishes go with her to her new 
home. Her husband and son will remain 
at Cary for a few months longer before 
removing to Augusta.
