CARD OF THANKS
We beg that you do us the kindness
to allow us space in your columns to
express our profound thanks, and
grateful appreciation to the brave bund
of tire fighters of Winder for their he
roic efforts in fighting the flames so
successfully which came so nearly to
tally destroying our home, and contents
on Monday morning last.
While the damage is considerable,
we owe to the brave firemen, and all
others who so quickly and willingly
came to the rescue the fact that our
home was not totally destroyed.
In attempting to express our thanks
and appreciation we are overwlielmned
by the poverty of words with which
to convey the sentiments of our hearts.
It is our wish that the richest bless
ings of heaven may rest upon each and
every one like eternal sunshine.
Faithfully,
Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Chandler.
