A young mum was moved to tears when a kind stranger handed her a note and £5 on a train – for being a ‘credit to her generation’.
Samantha Welch, 23, was given the hand-written note as she sat cuddling her three-year-old son Rylan who was asleep on her lap.
The scribbled letter, written on a piece of scrap paper, praised her for her parenting skills, and was signed ‘man on train at table with glasses and hat’.
The note also included a £5 note so Samantha could ‘buy herself a drink’.
It read: ‘Have a drink on me, you’re a credit to your generation, polite and teaching the little boy good manners.

Her reaction
‘When he handed it to me he said it had fallen out of my bag, so I just said thank you and took it from him,’ she said
‘When I looked at it and saw what was written I was so shocked. I feel really overwhelmed by it all, it was just so lovely to get it.
‘I was so shocked at the fact he had put the money in it, I couldn’t quite believe it.
‘I’ve put the money in a savings account for Rylan now, I thought that was the best place for it.
