Salisbury Woman Donates Late Husband's Machines, Tools, to Industrial School at Valle Crucis, 1910

From the Thursday, June 23, 1910, issue of the Watauga Democrat.

Mrs. Peter A. Ferecks of Salisbury has donated to Bishop Horner for his Industrial School at Valle Crucis, the machinery, tools, and hardware from the shops of her late husband, Peter A. Fereicks, and last week shipped to the school 14 machines and 37 boxes of tools and supplies. The school in question is a grand institution, and is doing a noble work.
The last name was spelled Ferecks on first reference and Fereicks on second; I don’t know which is correct.
