Mt Pleasant crowd size debated in Herald letters
A letter from Pleasant, signed Charles S. Chaffin, challenges a Daily Herald report on May 3 in Mt. Pleasant. It argues Carmack drew 3,000 to 4,000 versus Taylor’s claim of five thousand, and claims the Mt. Pleasant turnout was smaller than Carmack’s day. The piece defends Herald reporting and criticizes Mr. Chaffin’s stance.
