Defect Snuts Freedom Flame At Courthouse
The Flame of Freedom on the Raleigh County Courthouse lawn has been snuffed due to a defect in the re ignition mechanism. Repairman Ted Mullens said power must be cut from a courthouse circuit breaker before evaluation, with delays possible for locating the breaker and replacement parts. The flame, dedicated March 28 1969 for the American Legion 50th anniversary, was lit by then Mayor John Wesley Smith and is part of a nationwide Legion observance.
