Log Cabin Becomes Shrine For Boy Who Won't Return
A Roaring Spring family preserves a log cabin by a brook as a shrine to Captain Frank Camp missing in action in Tunisia. His picture, a father's dairy cooperative role, and fond memories fill the cabin where Helen, his sister and wife of farm heir George Palmer, tends horses Comfort and Lieutenant. Neighbors recall Helen recalling Frank’s last letters and the hope a farm could replace the void left by his absence.
