Dear Mr. Terry: Yesterday morning 1 marred my twentythree year accident free driv ing record by becoming involved in my first automobile accident As regrettable as that was, I must say that of all places in South Carolina and other states through which I have traveled. 1 could not have found a place where I could have expected to receive more considera tion and be treated with more per sonal kindness than 1 was by your two investigating officers. Mr W, R Blakely and Mr Wright Simp son Not only were they prompt in re porting to the scene of the accident, but handled the investigation with di^xatch and courtesy to both par ties involved I took special note of the fact that they kept traffic flow mg and did not allow any idle curu oaxy seekrs to stop or approach the scene of the accident After the other party was dtanuss- ed from the scene these two gantle- mrn went far beyond their duty to render me every assisunre pos- Stote Employees Have Supper June 28Hi The Laurens < ouaty unit at die South Carolina State Employees Association will have a buffet sup per at the Whitten Village Circle school auditorium on June 28 at 7 30 p m Tickets may be bought at Whmeo Village from Mrs Annie Lou C. W’euner. secretary and treasurer of the unit, or Sam Earle at the highway department office sible In addition to taking me to a place where my children and I could rest and make contact with my people, they took such a per sonal interest in my children that an experience that could have been a hardship on them turned into one of complete relaxation so that when they returned home they were able m a matter of minuets to relieve the anxiety of a very worried mother May I extend to you and the City of Clinton my personal thanks for having in your employ two police, men with such feeling and inter est for those in distress BUFORD S MABRY.
