which comes in my mailbox. First up, I see that Colin Hammett finally had his trial in the murder of Cody Day. (Wrote about this last year). His sentence wsa 10 years shock probation for manslaughter, with a 10 year probated sentence on other charges.

Lonnie Baker's house burned last week.

Obituaries this week: Ronnie Reynolds of Glen Rose, Kenneth Lynn Hinds of Hico, Donald Boren of Glen Rose, Beatrice G Gamel of Mason. I noticed when going out the other day that there was a very large crowd of people paying respects to Ronnie Reynolds at the Ward Branch Cemetery.

Interesting notice in the back that the Somervell County Emergency Management Office needs volunteers to operate a community emergency medical clinic in case of bioterrorist attack, such as Pandemic Flu, Plague, Smallpox, and Anthrax.  Um.. I don't mean to be a wet blanket, but for myself, I don't think I would want to be operating a clinic where people with the plague.. or antrhax were coming  in to be treated. At least, not as a volunteer!
