Laurens — A Greenville woman
who now lives in New York made
a special pilgrimage here this
month to the grave of Dr. Kate
Wofford, Laurens-born educator.
Mary Ellen Roof made the pil
grimage for a Mohammedan girl
who had long desired it but feared
she Would never be able to make
it.
The Mohammedan girl, Fatma
Incediken, of Ankara, Turkey, met
Dr. Wofford in Kentucky about six
years ago. Dr. Wofford was there
to help in a program for advan
cing the Turkish rural school sys
tem. Fatma was her interpreter.
The two women became close
friends.
Dr. Wofford stayed in Turkey
about six months, then returned
to, the United States and took a
teaching position at the University
of Florida. A group of 30 Turkish
students was sent to this country
to study. Fatma came along as
interpreter and again the two wo
men met. They roomed together at
I the university and their friendship
grew.
After Fatma returned to Turkey,
Dr. Wofford died in 1954.
Later the Turkish girl was able
to come back to the United States
| and study for doctorate in educa
tion In New York she roomed near
Miss Roof and spoke often of Dr.
Wofford and her desire to make a
pilgrimage to her grave.
Time and money did not permit,
however, and Fatma feared she
never would be able to make it.
When Miss Roof mentioned that she!
planned to visit her mother in I
Greenville, Fatnu asked her to|
make the pilgrimage for her.
Miss Roof made the pilgrimage
this month, accompanied by Mrs i
Tom Wofford of Greenville, sister-!
in law of Dr Wofford, and Dr. G.
Watts Cunningham of Laurens,
gust, 1958. for the purpose of
electing a Mayor and six Aider-
men, one from each of the six
wards in the CHy of Clinton, each
