Eureka Post Office Dispute Sparks Letter From Attorney
Palisade Nevada August 12 Editor Sentinel Eureka: I send a letter from my attorney that may interest Eureka readers. He is a big and live man. I urge Evans to act promptly. I promised to carry the mail until January 1 1919 to allow time to fix the issue, then I will keep my word with the people and myself. After that no further mail interaction with the railroad will occur, and I have had the law changed to allow me to act accordingly. J E Sexton.
