McCarthy, Alaska. June 2.21.
To the hditcrof the McC’aithy News,
Dear Sir,
Will you permit me to use
your colums to set at rest the malicious
propaganda which has been circulated
by one, not even a resident of this
town, to the effect that my husband &
myself do not pay our bills, and that
at the time of the fire we were indebted
in a large sum to a local merchant cr
merchants? I desire to say:
my husband and myself have worned
very hard and have made it a point to
pay our bills. At the time of the
teir ble catastrophe which overwhelmed
us we were not in debt to any local
merchants in any amount more than
a current account such as any house
holder would have.
Our hearts are filled with gratitude
and gladness to know that we have the
sympathy and regard of our neighbors
here and in surrounding places as shown
by the wonderlul outpouring of mater
ial aid which has been given us in the
dark hour of distress which has come.
It is a shameful thing that any one
would deliberately invent a lie to injure
us at this time.
Yours Truly,
Mrs. Peter Johnson.
