Quotes

Canal Collector O'Donnell said today: "if we learn the identity of the people who throw dead or live animals into the canal I propose to prosecute them. The law provides a penalty of not less than $5 nor more than $25 for each offense. I have talked the matter over with Commissioner Palmer and he has assured me of every possible assistance at his command in locating the guilty ones. We are red hot after a West Ottawa man, and believe we will have sufficient evidence soon to convict him."
An announcement on the MerleFest website stated that before Moore could claim first prize in the more recent contest, "he had to do something no other competitor ever had to attempt: play a fifth and final number, accompanied by a masked guitarist, and a singer whose face was hidden from him and the audience! It was a unique conclusion to an exciting competition that featured banjo pickers from several states."
"I think Mr. Farrell can look down upon us and see ... all of us assembled here today to honor his memory" she said
"It's to be," she said of the move to abolish the post. "I first I didn't understand how they would draw a jury (without the jury commissioners' oversight)."
