TO THE VOTERS
OF WARREN COUNTY
I wish to state my reasons in calling for
a second primary for the position of Coroner
of Warren County. This decision was reached
after serious and careful study and much dis
cussion with many of the voters of the county.
With encouragement from them, I therefore
felt it was my civic duty to proceed to fill the
need and responsiblity of the position for
Coroner. Below I list several of the reasons
this important position should be filled by the
person of your choice.
The Coroner is a bonded and elective of
ficer and must work in close cooperatioin with
the law enforcement officers of the county
and state. He is required to make inquests and
preliminary hearings whenever it appears that
a deceased person came to his death by crimi
nal act or default of some person.
In cases where the deceased has appeared
to have died from natural causes, the Coroner
will make his findings and his personal investi
gations and file a written report of same. This
entails close harmony and working with the
doctors of the county to determine causes of
natural death.
In accidents, traffic or otherwise, the
Coroner will make reports and investigations
working with local and state law enforcement
officers, and when necessary will summon
witnesses and jurors of six good, lawful men?
when more investigations are necessary.
The duty of Coroner, as part of your
county government, carries an important re
sponsible phase of local government, there
fore I solicit the vpte of the people in this
second primary.
I feel that I am well qualified to handle
the duties of Coroner by my past service to
this area.
1. I represent Civil Air Patrol in the local
area checking and investigations of local air
crashes and assist in other parts of the state
when called upon. I have trained in First Aid
for the past eight years, along with the above
training.
2. I am a member of the local Lions Club,
a Mason and have worked with all Civic en
deavors in the county, helping Warren
County's good name.
3. I have worked with teen-age training
in the past eight years to over 100 local boys
and girls in character and citizenship building.
~My leadership and experience are some
of the reasons I feel that if elected as Coroner,
will enable me to represent "the people of
Warren County in a professional and digni
fied office. . ,
*>
I have been manager of Loughlln-Good
wyn Jewelry Store in Warrenton for the past
fifteen years.
YOUR VOTE JUNE 23 WILL BE
APPRECIATED!
