LONDON, Ont. (OP) —— A $1,000 educational trust fund has ar— rived at the London Free Press for a little girl in suburban Lam- beth. Neither the newspaper, nor the little girl nor perhaps the rest of the world may ever know from whom it came.

But somewhere in Toronto a woman known only as “Another Elizabeth" lies dying. She is likely elderly, perhaps quite wealthy and for a long time she was very lonely.

Into her life, however. has come a spirit of Christmas such as she had never known before, and the letter accompanying the money gives the impression she is crying out for someone with whom to share her joy.

“0h, would I had got this mes- sage years ago. It took a little girl working through the Christ Child to give me such peace and contentment. . . ."

HOW IT HAPPENED

Why the little girl in Lambeth?

The ship was forced to remain outside the harbor and await the C.'G.S. Suurel, the government ice breaker that arrived at the harbor mouth early yesterday morning but could not see the tanker.

The Saurel came into Char- lottetown and brolce the ice bound tanker imperial Sarnia during the morning and escorted her into open waters on the Strait and then aided the Imperial Hali- fax back into the harbor.

Another tanker, the Irving- Ibrool: was reported by Irving Oil officials yesterday to be off the harbor mouth but company oflficials did not expect her to berth until this mormn' g.

home and hope he will continue to make steady improvement.

Mrs. George Bruce who h as been a patient in the Souris Hos- pital has been removed to the P. E. I. Hospital in Charlotte- town where her friends hope that she, will make satisfactory progress.

Miss Audrey Robertson, Red Point, was a recent visitor to

Charlottetown. D.V.

Norman Knox, wrote a letter to the editor of her hometown weekly newspaper in Exeter.

Elizabeth then 7, asked Santa to remember needy children and if there was anything left how she would like a toy doll known as a “ lolly Moomoo."

The letter was published in the Exeter Times and eventually reached the eyes and heart of the woman in Toronto.

In the first year came $10 with instructions to buy a doll for Elizabeth. It was then that The Free Press discovered Elizabeth had an identical twin, Diana. as well as another sister and three brothers.

In the second year came $110, with instructions to let Elizabeth buy herself a present, spend $50 on presents for her family and send $50 to charity. Instead, en- couraged by her family, Eliza- beth sent $100 to a leper colony at Palamur, India.

Now, in the third year, the‘re is a tin box. stuffed with bills total- ling $1,050.

says:

“I have given instructions to have this $1,050 sent to you for Elizabeth Knox. This will go to you for the Christmas nearest to my death.

“There is $1.000 to be kept in trust for Elizabeth‘s education and $50 for Elizabeth to spend on her family at Christmas.

“I have given generously to charity in Elizabeth‘s name, so would appreciate it if the $50 be spent thus. I’m sure you‘ll all honor my will."

“I can leave Elizabeth a little of worldly goods, but how much greater would be a legacy of the Christmas spirit, the miracle glow of joy that comes to the heart when the real Christmas spirit is in it. . .

“In these last months of my life, the spirit of Christmas has beenwith me as never before. The Christ Child has brought to me the message of wonders and worship, the example of humility, the urge to give, the willingness to accept the thoughts for oth— ers."

Can’t Write New Ending For Story

WASHINGTON tAP) — Presi- dent Eisenhower can not write a new ending for the life story of author 0. Henry, famed for trick endings to his short stories. The White House reported Fri- day the president is in whole- hearted sympathy with the idea of granting a pardon for 0. Henry, who served a prison term for embezzlement 60 years ago. But it can't be done, Eisen- hower’s special legal counsel said, because the president is without power to grant a post- humous pardon. William Sydney Porter, who wrote as 0. Henry, was con- victed of embezzling $854.08 from an Austin, Tex., bank. Porter died in 1910 at the age of 48. Paul Wakefield, president of the Texas Heritage Foundation. asked the president to grant the pardon: saying “There exists today abun- dant proof of his innocence and of his conviction purely on cir- cumstantial evidence.“
