“Wants Patterson Pounded” Letter
to the Editor by Dr. W.R. McIntosh, from the March 2, 1922 issue of the
Rockingham Post-Dispatch
Please allow space
for me to express my deep sympathy for Bro. Walter Patterson at Hannah Pickett
Mill, who on Feb. 25th got his arm broken while cranking a car. I
have personally known Walter from childhood and he is a man now, trying to do
the will of his Master, and let us who have two good arms reach out a helping
hand and help him along. He is now unable to manual labor. It may be three
months or more before he can resume his work in the mill, and I, as a personal
friend, feel impressed to write a few lines in his behalf, and hope all who
read this will be interested. Let us remember the Word says “it is better to
give than to receive.” Why not somebody give him a surprise pounding? All who
give a pound will feel good over it; now who will lead the way. It will be like
casting bread upon the waters; it will return after many days hence.
