Endorsing Mr. Holmans for Road Superintendent Role
The Courier lauds Mr. Holmans indispensable road services and warns against replacing him. He took charge with 44 000 spent of 100 000 bonded funds and under five miles of permanent roads built. With 56 000 left, he added over 50 miles of top quality roads, a lasting testament to his judgment and skill. Also a note on Perry Davis Painkiller for lumbago relief after a back wind.
