To The Voters Of
Hardin County...
For the past several weeks I have tried to cover
, as much of Hardin County as I possibly could, and
see as many folks as possible to solicit their sup-
port in my race for Sheriff.
In the short time remaining before the first pri-
mary election on May 2, there will bemany I will
be unable to contact personally. I am using this
method of earnestly soliciting your vote and sup-
port.
The short time left, and the lack of finances re- -
quire that I make this kind of plea. I am sure that
you want good law enforcement in your Sheriff’s
Department, and my years of experience with
“Whit” and my training in law enforcement wiH
assure that kind of service.
I deeply appreciate the friendship of all people,
and again earnestly ask for your vote and support
in my race for Sheriff.

I am trying to see each one of you personally
to ask you to again return me to the office, hut I

your vote and support, and promise to continue
my effortsto make the best commissioner, and
operate the"best county in Texas.
