Card Of Thanks Dear Editor: Please allow me space jrt your val uable paper to try to express my sin ■ere and deep gratitude to the deal friends and good people of this city and vicinity for the many kind and loving miniistrations bestowed on me ad my family, both before and during my present serious illness which has already covered a period of more than twelve months. Only a few years ago I came among these people as a stranger; but their deeds of kindness to me have by no means been measured by the strength of our acquaintance, or the extent of our association together. I could not have expected more had I been their near relative pr life-long friend. Especially does my whole heart, mind and soul go out in gratitude to those dear neighbor ladies who have o often neglected the affairs of their own homes, and have so faithfully and freely administered, not only to. my own needs, hut also to the needs of my two children, thus greatly lessen ! ing the cares and burdens of my dear husband. Though my illness has already been lof long duration, and still continues, yet the faithful and loving adminis trations abate not, as they sometimes do, in cases of protracted sickness. I also extend my heartfelt thanks to my good physicians who, I am sure, have done everything in their power for my comfort and relief. To say that, as long as my heart continues to sove, it will move in gratitude to these people, but feebly expresses my feelings toward them. Being unable to compensate them my self, I can only pray that the alj-wise and Almighty God, who doeth all things well, may bless them as He alone is able to do, and also resign us all to His will, whatever that may be. Yours in sore afflictions, but yet in much gratitude, MARY L. BANKS. Written by my brother, W. R. P.ewis, Collins, Ga. HEADQUARTERS CAMP SPIVEY NO. 1539 U. C. V. Broxton, Ga., May 26, 1916.
