Columbus Youth to See
Copy of Famous Letter
Written by War Hero Dad
Columbus, Ga. — A handsome,
light-haired, 12-year old Columbus
youngster will see again some
heart-touching advice written him
by his soldier father 11 years ago
Wednesday and will stage a dra
matic reunion in the Library of
Congress next week.
Thomas McKibbon III, will bet
ter understand his dad’s chosen
words written during the days of
the historical Normandy invasion
than he did when he first received
them in 1944.
The advice — a master plan for
character building — came in the
form of a now famous letter which
came during the toughest part of
the European struggle and proved
to be Capt. T. C. McKibben Jr.’s
parting words to a 17 months old
son. McKibben was killed 26 days
after sending the note which was
signed off with “from your loving
daddy, Tom.”
The letter, sent from“somewhere
in England,” was published in the
Congressional Record Nov. 1, 1945
and has been reprinted in news
papers throughout the world.
By special invitation of Sen.
Walter George, young Tom will
view the Record’s copy of his let
ter.
His reunion with the 800-word
note will come as part of a two-
week sightseeing tour which he
and his mother, Mrs. McKibben, a
receptionist at Ft. Benning hos
pital will take thru Virginia and
the District of Columbia.
Elberton, Ga., Woman
Held Forty Minutes by
"Tar Baby" Freezer
Elberton, Ga., June — Mrs. J. E.
Stowers was the victim of a most
unusual accident Tuesday. And
next time she is going to be sure
her hands are absolutely dry before
she reaches into the freezing unit
of the refrigerator.
While washing dishes, she
thought of some meat in the back
of the freezing unit, and reached
for it with her dripping wet hand.
Her right hand brushed against
the side of the unit and instantly
froze to it.
Realizing that she would pull
the skin off her hand if she jerked
loose, she cast around for some
way to free herself.
She could not reach the plug to
cut off the current, but this on her
hand hoping it would release it.
However, the water froze and held
her more securely. It was about 40
minutes before a neighbor dis
covered her plight and released
her hand with warm water.
Mrs. Stowers’ family physician
said that if her hand had remained
in the freezing unit a littlel noger
it would probably have been nec
essary to amputate it.
