Jasper County Democrat, Volume 20, Number 78, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 December 1917 — PARK MAIL CARRIER APPOINTED [ARTICLE]

PARK MAIL CARRIER APPOINTED

The Democrat is informed that Frank Garriott has been appointed rural mail carrier on the Parr • route, to succeed Stanlius Brusnai han, who recently resigned. A. S. Lowman has been substitute carrier since Brusnahan’s resignation. Mr. - Garriott recently moved from Union township onto a ranch over near Morocco, and it is reported that there is some doubt as to whether or not he will accept the job. This is one of the heaviest routes in Jasper county, in fact, it is probably the heaviest, because of the carrier being obliged to carry both the Gifford and Newland mail in addition to that of the regular patrons on his route. The route is 27% miles in length and a part of the roads are not of the best at times.
