Martin Letter to The Editor I wish to thank my dear friend, Gladys Finrtey, for helping me to safety when we were crossing Harmony Road (in the cross walk) last Thursday night, A speeding car came along as we were about half way over and without her help I would not likely have made it to safety. I hope the person driving that car realizes what he nearly did and is more careful in the future.
