P|T|FUL CONDITION
Was That Of Woman and Three Chill.
dren Found In Tenement Home
by Mrs. Cora A. PeddiCOrd,
Superintendent Of the City
Mission.

Another Of the many instances Of
poverty in the midst of plenty was
found yesterday morning by Mrs. Cora
A Peddicord, Superintendent of the
city Mission. This time it was the
story Of desertion by worthless hus-
band and mothers brave attempt to
keep a family together and to provide
for them in the best manner possible.
While on tour Of inspection Mrs.
Peddicord came to home In one Of
the alleys near the center of the city,
inhabited in the main by colored peo-
pie. In room in one of the houses
she found o woman and three children
without the necessities of life. There
was no covering on the floor of any
kind, and a few chairs, a table and a
he'd were the only articles of furni-
ture in the room. The room was ex-
oeedingly dirty. There was no stove,
all of the cooking for the family of
four being done over a CRATE
On the bed one of the sons of the
woman lay i'll. Such was the poverty
Of the family that there were no COW
ering for the sick child, except few
old coats that had been gathered by
! loving hands. There had been no doc
tor to examine the child and to de-
termine whether or not it had con-
tagious disease and to administer il
medicines.
Mrs. Peddicord Immediately sup
plied covering for the sick child and
later brought some coverings for the
! floor. She took them some nourishne
food and supplied several other ne.
cessties of life. Later a physician
was sent to the home to administer
to the sick child.
There are instances of poverty like
and even worse in this city every day
And Mrs. Peddicord as Superinten-
dent of the Mission Home, makes il
her duty to find these persons and to
see that they become properly cloth.
ed and fed. But she cannot do this
without the aid of the citizens of
Maysville who are more fortunate.
Those who have old clothing and 9TH
er things they do not need, particular
lily old bedding and coverings for
l'oors are urged to donate them to the
Mission. They will be sent to the
places most needed In zero weather,
many homes are without floor cover
ings and bedding. A special appeal
is being made by the Mission for these
things and certainly the good people
of this city are willing to aid others
just that much.
