To the girls responsible for the very mean, despicable, and nasty telephone calls made to my daughter and another wom an's daughter which made trouble between them and caused both mothers much em barrasment: Girls, you should be ashamed of the filthy things you accused my daughter of doing and to even speak of such filth over the telephone. You have made these two girls suffer terribly by your crude pasttime. I have heard of girls suffering nervous breakdowns over such things as this. If this happens, I promise you my daughter won't suffer alone, you guilty ones will pay for your stupidity. You girls owe two families an apology for the misery you are guilty of causing, and you know whom to call to make your peace with both houses. Do you not know that you have broken cr.e of our Lord's great Commandments and in the worst way possible, "Thou Shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." If I were in your place, I would be sure to pray very hard for forgiveness for your terrible act. Find something constructive to do as High School girls should instead of destroying someones life for your pleasures. (What you call kicks). If you must act so foolish in the future, use your own name when calling instead of the other girl's or my daughter's. They are decent, let them stay that way. I don't need to sign my name; you know who I am. A Wronged Girl's Mother Ellis Products Beef Sfew 1 5Vi -oz. jgc Can Mm ST 39c Chili Con Came with Beans 1 5 'a -oz. Cans 4 s 39c Corn Beef 24-oz.
