Struggling Aged Couple Wanders to Lagonda Seeking Help
An elderly couple, once in Urbana poorhouse, walked from Urbana to Lagonda seeking church help and shelter. They were misdirected, endured hardship, and arrived worn and footsore, hoping Lagonda brethren would aid them. The tale notes their past as artists, faith, and fear of returning to poverty, and records local church services and prayers for relief.
