North Shore Voter Registration At Winthrop Town Hall
Registrars and assessors held registration sessions at Winthrop Town Hall last evening with a steady turnout that could enlarge the voting list on future nights. A lighthearted tale about Winthrop police chief selection circulated after a coin flip determined the choice between Lightbody and Lamb. A burglary incident at Mr Howes's house led to a delay as youths intercepted the thief, while Mrs Miller hosted a rich whist party at Crest, Winthrop with many guests and music.
