Maturity Key to Constable Job in Ladonia Area
In Ladonia and nearby Bug Tussle and Wolfe City residents prefer an experienced constable. H. H. Muir Milford, age 85, wears a six star badge, handles court papers and warrants, and patrols the Northeast Texas region. Milford won the Democratic primary two to one over a younger challenger, with no Republican candidate in November. He says Sheriff Raymond Taylor encouraged him to run and admits he feels aging. His 1962 pickup serves as police cruiser, and he does not patrol regularly, yet locals still rely on him at night. Things are quiet now.
