The freeze dry process removed 300 gallons of water with about 99 percent of records recovered under supervision by Dr Louis Manarin. Restoration involved facilities in Richmond and Valley Forge with some documents sent to the Library of Congress lab at Washington. Estimated recovery cost is about 10000 dollars.

Gasoline inventories are near multiyear highs as summer driving begins, yet observers say bargains at the pump are unlikely. Prices rose about one penny per gallon monthly from March to May while oil companies store extra fuel rather than push it to wholesalers.

Write-In Mayoral, Council Victory in Tiny West Virginia Town
In Littleton West Virginia a write-in election drew 41 voters with 20 voting for town council and six for recorder. Mayor David Roberts won another term but several top council finishers refused to serve and recorder Carol Roberts again took the position due to lack of volunteers. Water and drilling paperwork burden the small town.
