A picture’s worth a thousand words

To the Editor:

I would to get in touch with a member of the family of the late Mr. Frank Bowers, who was a businessman here in Scotland Neck many years ago. He lived in a beautiful home that he bought from Dr. Wood, the town physician. I had a beautiful picture of Mr. Bowers that was found in the attic of another home where some members of the family lived. It has been identified as Mr. Frank Bowers by a lady who recently died. She was 100 years old. She was a friend of the family. I would so much to be able to give this picture to a member of the family. Mr. Bowers had a sister who visited family or friends in Enfield.
