Rumors have been circulating throughout the high school concerning the illness of Miss Lula Walker, former Latin teacher and loyal friend of Lexington High School.
Miss Walker, who has been ill for several months at the Johnston Willis Hospital, Richmond, Virginia, is one of Lexington’s most popular teachers, loved and respected by all who come in contact with her. Many rejoice to learn that such rumors are slight mistakes, and that Miss Walker is greatly improved.
Miss Walker has undergone several operations recently, resulting from poison in the system. We are glad to state that the rumor concerning the amputation of her arm is a mistake, and that only a portion of the bone has been removed, leaving her in a much improved condition.
Although it will be several weeks before Miss Walker will be allowed to leave the hospital, we are hoping that she will soon be entirely recovered.
Miss walker’s condition has been a source of great concern to her friends, and especially to the students of Lexington Hi, sincerely hoping for her speedy recovery.
