Court Actions Open Against County Clerk Fred Stacy Over Vacation Pay
The Raleigh County Court ordered County Clerk Fred T. Stacy to pay two former employees for vacation time, with Prosecuting Attorney Thomas Canterbury instructed to prepare civil action if Stacy refuses. Stacy disputes the claim, citing an unofficial opinion and stating he will run his office as long as he is clerk. The case centers on Jessie Anderson and Dollie McQuade, who left before the April 1971 order. Separate notes described funding for the Piney Creek Watershed Association and a long-range Scenic Rivers project funded by federal grants and state support.
