A SERIOUS LOSS

The sudden passing of Mayor A. G..
Hesen has caused serious loss to
the town of Oakland.
His ever present interest in the
community in which he lived could
easily have been the direct reason for
his untimely death. Ordered to cur
tail his activities because of his con-
dition, nevertheless he wanted to be
at the Fire Department meeting
where discussion Of proposed COM
munity building and fire house was
to be the main topic.
He felt that the work which the
present administration had begun
should be carried to completion with
the present officials and for that
reason had intended to run again, in
spite Of the better judgment Of his
physicians.
The entire town mourns the loss Of
this man who placed his community
above self.
