To the readers of the North Wilkesboro Hustler, I wish to inform you of a very unusual family, one that is in need and worthy of help. Jacob and Rebecca Eller, Sherman, N.C. They have eight children under 10 years of age, eldest a girl 9 years old, twin boys 6 years of age, twin girls 4 years old, a little boy 2 years of age and two weeks ago the stork flew over and left two little twin girls.
The Lord has wonderfully blessed this family with children while they are very poor in worldly goods. Their only support is by the sweat of the father’s brow.
This family needs help.
