That is the theme of a story we
think you'd like to hear.
It's Il story about a grateful old
woman who repaid the kindness
of a county and of a man in the
only way she could. She left them
her home.
From that gift, left more than
two years ago, babies at Jackson
County hospital are having a bet

where the weak and the sick and
the healthy babies have their own
quarters for the first time in hos
pital history.
Little babies don't know about
Mrs. Elsa Petersen. and Mrs. Pet.

about these babies. But when she

has long been a goal at the hos
pital. Now money from the sale
of the little house which was
home to Mr. and Mrs. Petersen
during their lifetime has made
this possible.
Mrs. Petersen died two years
ago last winter, a loveable old
lady of IS who had taken help
from the county only as a last
resort when her health, never her
pride. kept her from doing the
odd jobs around town which had
supported her and her husband
for years.
She left her home to the coun.

Peterson and her husband, who
preceded her in death by 10 years,

eran church and the work at the
hospital. including the painting
of a corridor, was financed.
There will be a little left over
which MI. Gautier wants to put
aside to insure the future upkees

their crop and their living. Some
years later. they bought property
in Pascagoula and after their first
house was burned they moved
into the little house on Joe street.
Thrifty, neat and an excellent
cook, Mrs. Petersen remained in
the little house after the death
of her husband. She had once
been employed as janitress at the
community house, and had done
odd jobs around town but ,her
advanced years made work i'm
