EMSI supports Jordan
Citizens of Milford: This letter has been written to make the town board officials and the citizens of Milford aware of the position of the Milford emergency personnel, concerning the continued harrassment and even more, the possible ousting of town marshal Melvin Jordan. It is the opinion of MESI personnel that marshal Jordan is doing a fine job and in fact feel deeply indebted to Jordan for finding the “old Milford hotel” fire early enough that the MESI ambulance and equipment could be evacuated without serious damage or loss. If the fire had not been discovered. MESI losses could have exceeded $30,000. the majority of this amount being donations from your pockets. MESI also feels indebted to Jordan for traffic and physical assistance, when requested, Jordan has expressed

willingness to help when he is available. One final comment concerns Jordan's work load. Jordan is required to be available 24 hours a day, his wife “Sandy" must also be available to answer the telephone and operate the radio for dispatching and other police matters. Mrs. Jordan does not receive wages for her services, Jordans wages are low, especially considering the hours required for the job. It is the opinion of MESI, that the community of Milford and its governing body, should get behind Jordan 100 per cent giving him its complete cooperation and support for his efforts at maintaining law and order in the' community. Milford. Jordan is serving you with dedication Respectfully: Milford Emergency Ser. Inc.
