“A Card Of Thanks”
To the New Hope Sunday School:
I desire to extend my sincere thanks to you all for the shower you gave me. I appreciate everything that was given me more than I can express in words.
I feel lonely and sad since my husband has been taken away from me. I hope God will bless every one of you with great blessings and help you in carrying on your Sunday School work. Pray for me that I may have strength, and that I may raise my child as a christian that some day he will meet his papa in the other world.
Thanking you all,
Respectfully,
Mrs. Cora Lee Morgan
Widow of Leaton Morgan
