by Gertrude H. Wilson – 30 Nov 2004
Dear Friends,
I am an avid reader and diehard fan of The Globe. I have received, read, and re-read every one of the publications and am enchanted. You are doing a wonderful thing by starting a high school. I have one question for you: Am I your only reader? Do you publish the Globe solely for my enjoyment? Your ìletters to the editorî column is so empty. You should encourage the community to send letters with their thoughts and feelings.
How many new students have you got? Do you like your new location? I apologize if you have aleady said these things, but it takes weeks for the Globe to arrive here in Alaska.
Since I know so much about you I will tell you a little about myself. My name is Gertrude Harriet Wilson. I am 71 years old and live alone in my log cabin with my malamutes who pull my sled. I am 5í4î (Emma and Nadia, youíre not alone) and I enjoy fishing. I hope you will all come and visit me one day on one of your exciting excursions.
Keep the Globe coming!
Sincerely,
Gertrude H. Wilson
