Bfl B ^ Crippled Child Leaves for Minnesota On last Friday Miss Minnie Lee - Kichardson, a very bright and attrac- 1 I tive young lady of about fifteen years of age and*for some years past an inmate of the Epworth Orphanage, Co-1 lumbia, left here over the Atlantic Coast line for Rochester Minnesota where through the efforts of Dr. E. ' T. Kelley and the zealousness of Mr*. ^ J. T. Sexton, the young lady was sen: . for treatment to the sanatorium of > the famous Mayo Brothers, physician* . and surgeons. Some time ago, Miss 'Richardson t was visiting in the home of Mrs. Sex? ton, and while there her condition was ' noticed by Dr. Kelley, who, believing, that her crippled limb can be made i useful by an operation, at once set on j foot a movement to send the child to the Mayo Sanatorium, Rochester, Minnesota. Miss Richardson is a pretty goldcr J haired girl of fifteen, bright in con \ersation and cheerful in spirit.! though a cripple and forced to walk on ' crutches as the aftermath of a case 01 typhoid fever. The young lady's visit to the Sex-, ' ton family terminated and she returned to the orphanage. Then Mrs. J Sexton undertook the collection by | popular subscription of a sufficient-j , sum to send the girl to Mayo's and | defray her expenses while there. In; the interim, Dr. Kelley had taken the j matter up with the distinguished sur- j i geons and they offered their professional services free of charge. Lasi 1 week the necessary amount of money had been raised by Mrs. Sexton, and with a railroad ticket by way of AtJ lanta, provided by the local A. C. L. Agent Harden and his foi-ce,the young lady was started for Minnessota Friday. Mrs. Sexton is enthusiastic over , her work, ;uid reports that cash con; tributions were received from about , 400 personand nearly $300 was raised. t Miss Richardson will probably have to spend from two to three months at the Mayo Sanatorium. Mrs. Sexton and Dr. Kelley are grateful to those ' who contributed to this worthy cause. ?- - U f Gc.i.ci.ien of the Jury Vac following persons were drawn by the Jury Commissioners at noon ' Monday: ' Bishop L.
