ten, clerk of court. According to Attorney James M. Houck a group of freeholders within the conservancy district have petitioned the Department of Natural Resources to dissolve the district. The DNR had a hearing and found that the benefits outweighed the costs and filed that report with the Putnam County Circuit Court. The hearing, now scheduled, is to hear evidence on the question of whether or not there has been such a change of circumstances from the time the District was created as to cause the District to no longer be of benefit and to determine whether or not the Big Raccoon Conservancy District should be dissolved.

Donelson expressed pleasure with the move and at the same time said, “I want to thank our many friends for their past dealings with Donelson Pharmacy, and I want to assure you I will still be at your service in connection with the phamaceutical department at Coan’s. The balance of our stock will be liquidated shortly, and watch for the coming sale.” This move will mark the closing of a drug store that has been located on the west side of the square for over 50 years.
