She said good- bye to her husband, Bert, and daughter Jane 9, and sons Charles and Lloyd at Malton Air- port where she boarded a TCA aircraft bound for Winnipeg at 3.30 am. Before leaving, "Mom" told reporters she would never have left Ontario, and no one would cver have persuaded her to go, had it not been for the constant "persecution" she suffered from certain welfare officials. She left her beloved Whyte- haven Mission about three miles west of here around suppertime Saturday to stay with her son Charles and his wife in Toronto before going to Malton. She was taken to Toronto by her husband Bert and son Lloyd. "Mom" will stay with Rev. and Mrs. James Spiers in Win- nipeg, to await word from Brit- ish Columbia welfare officials of an appointment she has with them, She is hoping to open a néw Whytehaven Mission on 25 acres donated her by a Nelson man. The new location will be at Taghum, seven miles north of Nelson. The staff at the mission here expects to be ready to leave for the west in the next couple of weeks. Meanwhile they are busy packing essentials which will be needed at the new Whytehaven, The Bowmanville site is still in the hands of real estate agents but to date is not sold. They have had one offer from another mis- sion operating in the Toronto area, which is interested in exe panding its facilities and is pre- pared to register under the Chil dren's Boarding Homes Act.
