Gospel to precious, blood-bought, immortal souls in Alabama.
The letter follows:

Dear ——: Snow Hill, Ala., February 15, 1950

We, the teacher and children of Hamburg Lutheran School, wish
to express our many kind thanks to you for bringing us the sweet
message each preaching Sunday. You may rest assured we enjoyed each
sermon,

For many Sundays you traveled through the mud and rain. Now
to you a hearty “Thank you.”

We were like sheep without a shepherd. Please accept our many
thanks. Yours in the Savior,
