I can say our because I am a home owner in Perquimans County even though I am not living there at present I would like to have the commissioners look into the water system at Winfall. During my recent visit home I found the water to be very hard and apparently contained no water softeners or other ingredients used to remove the harsh chemicals from the water. I was told that the chemicals were not being put in the water because the former employe quit and no one had been hired to fill his position. Without these chemicals in our water it is very bard on our plumbing. We have to use more soap and laundry detergents and it doesn't taste good. I am a taxpayer in Winfall so I have a right to complain. Please send me the names and addresses of the commissioners so I can file a formal complaint if necessary. I will appreciate your cooperation. MINNIE WIGGINS YATES 111 Myer Lane Goose Creek, S.C. 29445 Memory Recalled TO THE EDITOR ; In the obituary column of your March 24 issue of The ; Perquimans Weekly I learned that Julian Fleetwood of - Ferndale, Mich, has died. ' The news brought back to me a very vivid memory of a time when Julian was one of the big boys in Hertford and I ' was a member of the little boys. I enjoyed watching the big boys play baseball on the school grounds. When Julian came to bat he would stand at ;the plate swinging his bat as though he intended to knock the ball to kindgom come. And each time he would sound off ; the outfielders, "Stand back, fielders. Stand back." ' . Usually the fielders would move back in order to be able to catch the hit Julian was going to make. But time and ; again, Julian would fly out to the infield or hit a grounder. And sometimes he would just strike out. 1 ' But one day Julian strode to the plate, the picture of -confidence, and yelled out his usual instruction to the 1 outfielders. - But on this particular day, the outfielders remembering 'past performances of Julian, instead of moving farther out, : moved closer in. The pitcher' wound up and pitched straight across home plate. Julian swung with all his might. Bat and ball con- nected with a loud bang. The ball took off. It rose in the air higher and higher than any one in Hertford had ever seen a ; ball soar. It kept on and on. Few of the big boys in Hertford had ever knocked a ball as ; far as the Fowler house. But this time, Julian's hit not only 'reached that house, and so far as I know was never found -again. : I Julian, enjoying his triumph, strolled around the bases, and the scorer tallied up a home run. Casey had redeemed . himself. - ;I In the many years since, I have seen many baseball .games and have Seen many home runs made, but never ;have I enjoyed a baseball triumph more than I did when Julian made his mighty hit. Hope you will publish this story. WILLIAM DABNEY WHITE . 302 WoodlawnAve. ; Greensboro, N.C.
