Mail Carriers Salary Increases and Local Deaths
Rural carriers at the Monticello post office received small July salary increases based on distance and mail volume. Reports of a flat 1200 annual pay for all twenty four mile routes are false, though a Congress bill for 1200 salary exists but not yet passed. Also rumor of fifty mile routes with automobile delivery is unconfirmed and roads and weather would hinder such changes. Elvia Dunning Davis of Bolivar Missouri died, her amputation linked to a diabetes related injury from a butcher knife. She was born 1855 in Wayne township and married Charles Davis, leaving a husband and two children. Miss Nancy Katherine McLees died in Richland township after long illness. funeral held at Cascade Catholic church.
