JACKSONVILLE —
Dear Editor,
Just wanted to say thanks to the wonderful gentleman that returned my purse.
My husband had a doctor’s appointment in Jacksonville on July 7, 2011. After leaving the doctor we stopped by Wal-Mart to get a few things.
While putting the groceries in our car, I left my purse in the buggy. Some kind gentleman saw it an turned it into the customer service desk.
We were back to Palestine before I missed it. The receptionist at my doctor called Wal-Mart and was told they had it.
If you are reading this and know him please thank him for me. So grateful! God is good.

Don’t outsource tax collections
Received my letter from the appraisal district, very alarming. It seems someone (little/flowers) is discussing to combine the appraisal district and the county tax office.
