Consider election figures

During 2011, I made available to the citizens of Henry County the costs to taxpayers for providing taxpayer-financed health insurance to Debra Buchanan, Horsepasture District supervisor, and H.G. Vaughn, Ridgeway District supervisor. Again, the cost to Henry County Taxpayers to provide taxpayer-financed insurance is $23,491.68 per four-year term for a total of approximately $47,000 for both Buchanan and Vaughn.

Activities allowed Sunday

I have written several letters to the paper in supporting Sunday hunting.

I am very disappointed in our local legislators for opposing a law that would allow Sunday hunting (in Wednesday’s paper). I’m 62 years old and probably don’t have much time left to hunt, but I started supporting Sunday hunting for the young hunters.

For those who voice their opinion, here’s mine:

The moral of the story is things happen for a reason, and if we don’t know what the reason is, we create one. It’s part of what makes is human — such as the need to explain things to feel there is logic, rationality and order in the world.
