Judge Shook Deserted the Post Amid County Peril

The letter accuses Judge Shook of leaving his post during a county financial crisis as the Wes Texas Bank suspended payments. It claims he left for a coast fishing trip while the county faced cash shortages and legal action to protect warrants. County officials hired William Aubrey to issue notices to depository and bondsmen, prompting Bondholder G Bedell Moore to arrange collateral with George W Brackenridge to ensure warrants could be cashed. The author, Theo Harris, urges accountability and credits the county’s financiers who remained to defend the county’s rights.
