New Wall Viewed By Commission
County commissioners viewed the new cement block wall behind the county courthouse garage. Chairman W H Wakefield said the wall cost about 250 dollars and was built by county maintenance workers. Rumors of a multi thousand dollar price were denied. The three story creamery site was razed for a private parking lot this fall. The commission had to authorize the wall since the old garage abutted the creamery. The garage housed the highway department until 1955 and has been used recently as parking for court house employees.
