Excerpt from the Medford Mail
Tribune: "Attorney Wi i l i a rn
Briggs, Ashland, who volunteered
his services, withdrew as counsel
(or Donald llullticck upon discov­
ery thiit his client hud stolen
more than $200 worth of goods
from him. Lust Sunday, attorney
Briggs decided to go horseback
riding and to weur u pair of fan­
cy chaps for the first time. When
he went to get them, the chaps
were missing
Suspecting his
client, Ihtggs culled the county
jail llallbeck admitted the theft
and told where he sold the
chaps."
Sometimes you can't even trust
your own clients.
Herb Kischborn, city council­
man has recommended that $313,-
300 be spent to clean up the wat­
er. It's going to take $13,300 to
eleun It up and then the citizens
are going to vote on whether or
not they want to spend an ad­
ditional $300,000 to get more
water. The theory evidently is
that after the voters get a taste
of good water they'll probably
want more and will most likely
vote "yea," on the proposition.
