I have never experienced a more touching occasion than when the other two Commissioners and myself went to the home on Christmas eve and found Santa Claus standing by the tree that was surrounded with gifts of all kinds that had been sent by groups and individuals from all areas of the county.-1 felt that surely Laurens County must have.the best people in the world. It was indeed proof that the spirit of Christ still prevails in the world.
