Probate recount swings Redding probate race in Bridgeport
In Bridgeport last week the probate recount in Redding changed the result, giving Sanford two additional votes and overturning F A by one vote. A marked ballot error and corrections kept Sanford with a bare majority. Judges and locals praise the outcome amid party tensions and concerns over mixed tickets. Mark Twain anniversary observances were held at the library. An organ appraisal in Derby yielded price estimates around 80 dollars with move and fitting costs similar. Local sports saw Ridge gym teams win as Sanford school and junior teams begin regular practice. The grand list work nears completion led by A. Th Frost property with a 24000 base value including a large outbuilding and dynamo.
