She was looking and her ribs very poor were showing. She lived in the woods behind our house for: a long time. The dog would never let us near her. She always ran away when we came near her. I started feeding her and she stayed.

She and I became very close friends. She started trusting me and let me pet her. Now she won't let anyone near the house and is a very fine watchdog. Early in her life someone had been very cruel to her and beat her, obviously a man, because she won't let dad near her. Now she and I are very close and we have lots of fun together.

Miss Mabel Teague Miss Mabel Teague, 57, of Boone died in a Watauga County hospital Tuesday following a short illness. Groce Funeral Home, Asheville, will announce arrangements. She Loaned Him Her Car On the first pass she hadn't even slowed down. But the third trip up an interstate ramp in ten minutes on a cold Christmas evening is unusual. This time.

despite the short trip offered, curiosity got the better of me, and I got in. I needed a 75-mile hitch to Denver to pick up my brother who was flying in later in the evening. He could take care of himself if I couldn't get there in time, but it had been such a disappointing Christmas aleady, and now the one thing I had had to look forward to, his visit, was about to be disrupted. It wasn't just the ride, though. Two days before, I had worked all day as usual at my job in the Repair and Utility section of the Ft.

Carson Stockade. That had been my birthday. The only person to know it was a prisoner whose birthday was also December 23, And then I had had to spend my Christmas morning in the 984th Military Police mess ball on a stint of KP that had not even been announced until three days before. After talking with her just a moment, I was incredulous. Would I like to borrow her car? First, suspicion made me think "Watch out! Something isn't right here." "God has led me," she was saying.

Religious fanatic? I wondered. "He gave me this car when I returned from working with Campus Crusade in Japan. I felt scared to lend it to you, but He wants me to." So through her gesture of courage and goodwill our Christmas was made a happy time. J. Barron Hopper Jr.
