One of the things that stands out in my mind is when your classmate went down the slipperside her dress got caught and it was ripped off of her. I remember at the time how you reacted. It was with real heart felt sorrow for her great embarassment, and you were one of the first to try to shield her from the prying eyes of the boys. The other time I had given you the book The Yearling. You asked me if you really had to read the book. I told you that you would like it. At the end of the book where Jody had to kill his pet. You sat there reading the book and ketp saying, "This is so good"." Then all the rest of the girls wanted to read the book. You understood that life had hard choices to make, but they would make you a better person. I commend you for all your good work and I hope that in some small way that I may have made a contribution. I can look at some of the pictures and still see the young Ann Bradford. Mr. Turner I was always certain that you would do great things.

The other time I had given you the book The Yearling. You asked me if you really had to read the book. I told you that you would like it. At the end of the book where Jody had to kill his pet. You sat there reading the book and ketp saying, “This is so good”.” Then all the rest of the girls wanted to read the book. You understood that life had hard choices to make, but they would make you a better person.

I commend you for all your good work and I hope that in some small way that I may have made a contribution.
