Forging a New Alliance in Penn Laird Politics

Long-time Penn Laird residents (and previously bitter enemies) Bert Nesselrodt and Sammy Crider have finally agreed to forget their past differences and work together toward achieving the goal of town-hood. This gracious act of kindness and dedication so moved all those in attendance, that the rest of the agenda was tabled and the meeting adjourned.

The only negative incident of the evening occurred as folks were leaving: Mrs. Olive Thompson was overhead remarking that "the least Ruth Ann could do, if she's going to host the town council meetings, is serve punch and cookies!"
