Patoka Update Notes Local Town Life and Changes

Murray's shift to weekly paper publishing. It honors Jim Emerson’s colorful role in town print, notes the McGees leaving Patoka for Villa Grove, and thanks village leaders for street resurfacing by C D Martin transforming ragged streets into a paved-like surface at lower cost.
