Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Finally, we have a book that adopts orphans and foster children
into a family of love. This book is titled "Memories of a Cherry
Blossom Tree" and it was written by Fletcher Johnson Jr. His book
is based on fictional accounts of children who came from various
backgrounds of abuse, neglect, abandonment and displacement.
Readers will experience elements of love, joy, peace, and
compassion. This book contains multiculturalism, drama, poetry, a
recipe and a dinner theater menu. It is a book for all ages. This
is a tribute to all social service agencies, educators, adoptive
and foster parents around the world. This story takes place during
the year of 1908 in a city called, "Macon," which is located in the
heart of Georgia. Some call it "Central Georgia." The events unfold
in an orphanage home known to many as "Stillwater's." The name
alone represents "Peace." The Lady in Pink established the home for
those children who were abandoned, abused, neglected, or had no
place to turn. She had domestic and international ties to agencies
that screened and listed prospective parents who were seeking to
adopt children. While the children waited, she nurtured them with
love, poetry, and plenty of care. After all of the children became
adopted, the Lady in Pink passed away some years later. She was
laid to rest underneath the Cherry Blossom Tree where the women
once sang and played as orphan girls. The women built a new
Orphanage and began having annual Cherry Blossom festivals as way
of paying tribute to the Lady in Pink.
