writes the following note of appreciation in behalf of her cousin, Mr.Willard H. Saults, who is founder of the Cancer Hospital, located in Centralia, Washington, and who has cured her of cancer, with which she has been suffering for over four years. He did not charge for the treatment as he wished to see if she could be cured by sending treatment to her by mail, and she was indeed cured and is in fine health. Her letter of appreciation follows:

telling of the beautiful hospital then being built by one of our former Maryville boys, Mr. Willard H. Saults, in memory of Dr. J.M. Saults, his father, who passed away in Cades Cove in 1914. Little did we dream at that time that his good work would reach back here, and save the lives of us living so far away from this wonderful institution. Some time ago I wrote asking Mr. Saults what could be done for me without me going to theexpense of traveling to Centralia, Washington, where this Hospital islocated.He at once had his head doctor furnish me with the necessary ointment to take it off; and I now feel that I am as well as ever; and it did not cost me one penny. I simply felt that his old Blount County friends would be interested to know the good work he is doing there; and that he is not doing it for money alone. This all happened after I had been treated here with X-Ray, etc., and had about given up all hope ofever getting well. This is not written in was of a testimonial; but because I feel that those who read of this hospital at that time would be interested to know what they are doing after three years active work. Ialso feel proud of what has been done for me; and without any cost to me whatever. Respectfully, Mrs. Andrew Nuchols."
