Dorothy Murphy Brings
Back Brownie Uniforms
Dorothy Murphy, who just re
turned from Orlando, Fla., where
she and her husband spent the
Christmas holiday with friends,
did more than just rest and take
sun baths in the land of sunshine.
When interviewed by the local
paper, she told of the need of uni
forms for Brownies, for which she
is a leader, and came home with
25 used uniforms from 25 people
who immediately contacted her
from all over the community, in
terested in helping her project.
She also told of the plans to
have a museum in Nome and the
recruiting now underway to re
turn some of old Nome for his
torical interest. Two former
Nomeites responded with pictures
and books, valuable for the col
lection being made here. Those
contributing were Mrs. Robert
Carson, who left here in 1918 at
the age of 12 years and whose
father was Henry Thompson, who
died recently. She turned over a
fine collection to Mrs. Murphy,
from her home in Maitland, Fla.
Allen Kelty, who left here in
September, 1919, and worked on
dredges in this area gave her pic
tures and sent greetings to any
one who might remember him.
Although now well along in his
seventies, he hopes to visit here
next summer if possible and will
look for some of the Nome, which
he remembers and old friends.
