He Is Surprised
Milford Chronicle:
Dear SIR

Milford Chronicle:
Dear Sir:-
L was never more surprised in my
life than when I read a piece in the
Chronicle, under the heading of mil
ton Wide Open, and signed by Apple
jack l count such a man as worth
less and unfit to be recognized as a
citizen, who would even ATTEMPT to
write such an article about a Town
like Milton. 1t is one of the best
towns in the country barring none
Speaking of the town fathers not EN-
plOying cop; it is true we have not
had COP for the past two years. but
we nave mad better order than years
before. In reference to inviting peo-
pie to come to our Town and instruc-
ting them not to bring any RED Eve"
as he calls it, looks very much as if
the one who wrote the article, either
has the stuff to sell himself or knows
where it is sold. In reference to the
speed fend or traffic rules being vio-
lated, if the party who is reported to
be the one that typeWrote the article
is the one who composed the same. I
do not think he has any room to com
plain as he is the most reckless driv-
er that drives our streets. 1 have
been resident of Milton all my life,
in fact, I was born here, and had / |
such an opion of the Town as he I
would move out at once. 1t looks
very much as if the writer Of such an
article has an ak to grind, either a
lob as COP or to manufacture and sell
red eye as he calls it. We have a
very quiet little Town and as 1 have
said before it is one of the best in
he country. SAMUEL J. WILSON
