Letter To The Editor
Ward North 2.

Charlottesville, \’a.
Aug. 16, 19S7 Rappahannock News Washington, Va.
Dear friends, white colored.
I'd like to take this method and opportunity to express to you my deep appreciation \ profound gratitude for the main beautiful cards & letters sent to me since I've been here in the hospital. I’ve received many telegrams, telephone calls and many personal visits. Although I had a serious operaton. my physician informed me that he has never seen a person, as young as 26 tears old. come out as well as I did, and I m 76.
I’m sure your prayers and good wishes for me were a contributing factor in ' bringing about this result. The operation was a complete success and my surgeon advised me that there has been a complete cure. He says I’ll be completely cured of the symptoms I had when I entered the hospital, and that I’ll be in better health.
1 am looking forward to being discharged Sunday, Aug. IS. Again thanking you for all your kindness.
(Gratefully yours.
Phelbert S. (Green
