I also carefully appraised . my own qualifications to be certain that I could fulfill the responsibilities entrusted to the Sheriff in a thoroughly efficient manner. I feel that I DO possess the necessary qualifications. Furthermore, I am convinced that a sheriff should also be endowed with those qualities of human un derstanding and friendliness so necessary to doing a suc cessful job.
