      General note

      Photo caption from published photo [see 53-5400_001 for closest version]: "BRIGHT CHRISTMAS - Thanks to the kindness of Twin City and district folk, Nancy and Sandra Watson had a happy Christmas. The children and their mother, Mrs. Rose Watson, were left in a plight two months ago when Alex Watson, a thrice-wounded army pensioner, was killed. Recently the family's bleak prospects were outlined in The Record and the result was more than $1,200 in cash donations and gifts to ensure a happy holiday for the family. Shown are (left to right) Mrs. Watson; Sandra, 8; Nancy, 5, as Santa Claus paid a special visit to their home."

      General note

      The referenced article, about the Watson's situation, appeared on Page 3 of the Monday, December 14, 1953 edition of the newspaper titled: "Father Killed In Accident - Christmas Outlook Is Grim for This Family."
