SHERIFF ROBERSON EXPRESSES
APPRECIATION
Editor of the Enterprise:—l will
thank you for space in your paper to
express my appreciation to the peo
ple of Martin County for their sup
port during the seven years which I
have served them as sheriff.
It has always been my pleasure to
do all for the people that I possibly
could so long as it was within the
law.
There are many difficulties in the
path of a sheriff. Thert are few
duties tKht he is called upon to per
form that do not either lead him in
contact with madness or sadness; and
regardless of whether the duty re
quires that somebody's loved ones
have to be imprisoned or whether the
duty takes bread from the cupboard
of hungry children the law says,
"Sheriff, go on;" and he has no pow
er to extend mercy, regardless of how
much is in his heart.
1 hope that I have never executed
the law with an iron hand and caused
any person undue embarassment, pain
or less. If I have 1 regret it. On
| the other hand, if I have erred in the
discharge of any duty, I hope it has
happened when the principle of mercy
overshadowed the path of duty.
In the recent campaign my defeat
was registered by the people by a
majority of 46 votes. I feel very
grateful to all those who supported
me and extend them my hearty thanks
but I have no harsh or ill-feelings
against those who voted against me.
It is a privilege that every citizen
has; it is one of the highest privi
leges given to an American citizen.
I honor alike those who voted for and
those who voted against me, and am
still a friend to all.
I am very grateful that Mr. Roe
buck, the man who won in the con
test ovefr me, is a gentleman, one of
the county's most honorable citizens.
One who I know will do his best to
serve all the people. It is not so bad
to be defeated by a good man, and es
pecially when it lifts burdens from
your own shoulders.
I shall use all my efforts to help
all officers and all people to the end
of a good county and a good State.
I wish especially to thank the peo
ple of Griffina. Township, where I wats
born and raised; where I received the
small amount of schooling which I
have; and where 1 received every
vote cast except 10, wWch were giv
en to Mr. Roebuck by kinspeople, and
who naturally would vote for him.
This expression of confidence by thos¥'
who know you best is worth far more
in satisfaction than a mere count?
office, and no one should fail to ap
preciate such a confidence and friend
ship.
1, of course, have been thrown in
cloße personal touch with the people
of Williamston since living here, and
for the many favors not only shown
me during that time but shown to
my family as well I am very grate
ful.
