Governor targets Pawtucket political machine in bold charges
Governor Higgins in a public meeting named five Pawtucket citizens as absolutely dishonest and dangerous to the community.

The Phoenix marks its seventy third year with a brief farewell to readers and thanks Bristol County for past support.
