Tell the world.Dear editor, I was sorry to read that Lawrence Lawrence. 1 City (1990 pop. 26,763), Marion co., central Ind., a residential suburb of Indianapolis, on the West Fork of the White River. It has light manufacturing. 2 City (1990 pop. 65,608), seat of Douglas co., NE Kans. Flett (Church that once brought pain now soothes soul of lay student, September September: see month. Journal) has bad memories of his days at Gordon Gordon, river in W Tasmania, Australia, 125 mi (200 km) long. Flowing from mountains to the W coast, its main tributaries are the Franklin and Denison from the N, and Serpentine and Olga to the S. School in Punnichy, Sask. He said he was not fed well enough but many former staff say the children were very well fed in the schools. Many children who came to the schools were very thin and sickly when they arrived and staff were always pleased to see them gaining weight. The tragedy of Mr. Flett's story is that he did not say who punished pun·ish v. pun·ished, pun·ish·ing, pun·ish·es v.tr. 1. To subject to a penalty for an offense, sin, or fault. 2. To inflict a penalty for (an offense). 3. him by making him kneel on a broomstick. This leaves all former staffopen to suspicion. Canon Norman Pilcher Norman Clemence Pilcher (born 1936) was a British police officer. He became infamous for arresting a number of celebrities during the 1960s on drug charges, such as Mick Jagger, Donovan and also two members of The Beatles, George Harrison and John Lennon. , who was Gordon's principal at one time, had a letter from former students before he died, thanking him for the help he gave them when they attended the school. I do hope Mr. Flett will tell the world who made him kneel on a broomstick. I wish Mr. Flett well on his spiritual journey. I also hope that at one point in his life, he will have some good memories of Gordon's and of the good staff who worked in the school. Bernice Logan Tangier, N.S. |
