Lumberton, R. 6, May 4—Everything is going well with the county home people. The sick are all better now.
Mr. D.R. Bullock of Lumberton came out and gave us a very interesting lesson about the Scripture Sunday night at the county home chapel, and we hope he will come again soon.
We were glad to see a good many visitors at the county home Sunday and among them were a good many that we knew. And we will try to give their names. We were glad to see Mr. S.M. Jackson of Laurinburg and Mr. C.U. Brown of Howellsville township, Mr. H.F. Townsend of Lumberton R. 6, Mr. J.A. Townsend of Buies, Mr. O.M. Barnes of Allenton, Mr. Cox and family of near Allenton, Mr. T.A. Lee of Fairmont, Mr. Miles Prevatt of Back Swamp, Mr. S.a. Willis and children from Rozier, Mr. and Mrs. J.A. McQueen of Rowland, Mr. Geo. Atkins and wife and sister and Mr. Wyhe and Miss Eula McCormick of Rowland. We were glad to see in number Mr. W.B. Herring and Mrs. W.H. Harring and daughter of the Dillon section. And we were especially glad to see Mr. I.R. Butler of the Gaddysville section, a visitor at the county home Monday afternoon.
We the county home people do believe that we can truthfully say that the Robeson county home is one among the best institutions to take care of the feeble and the helpless that there is in the State. We have a plenty to eat and it is well prepared, and comes regular three times a day, and too we believe that our superintendents, Mr. and Mrs. George Townsend are doing everything that they can to add to our comfort and to help us enjoy life the best that they can, and the sick are well cared for.
Well now the days are long and we hope that the people will come out and see the county home and when you come, come right in at the front door and walk down the hallway and speak to we county home people as you go by, for we love to meet all the good people.
Well, as news is scare, we will not write any more. We hope to write a longer item net week.
