The report is being quite freely circulat-
| ed that some of our neighbOrs are asking
pay for their assistance during the sick
/ ness, death and burial of our loved hus-
| band and father. Now we wish to say,
| through the columns of your paper, that
| the report is utterly false and base SLAM
der against the kindheartedness of the
neighbors in question. We wish publicly
to thank them for their kind assistance
and sympathy during our great need, and
to say that so far from asking pay they re-
| fused it when offered. We shall ever feel
| grateful to them for their ready assistance,
and may God reward them abundadtly.
