Resignation of Dr J W Williams from Republican committee
At a county Republican meeting the resignation of Dr J W Williams from the county central committee and as coroner candidate was discussed. No action occurred due to the absence of a majority executive committee. Williams has long county ties and a respected St Catherine medical practice. He had been elected coroner two years ago and performed creditably. It is noted he has accepted a laboratory instructor role at Kirksville in the osteopathy school and will begin duties soon. Williams has many friends. Brookfield Budget reports George Christy brought five ears of corn, six feet long in total, from his farm east of town. One ear’s rows run about fifteen inches and are well filled and solid.
