WBKO Reports that Todd County Sheriff files lawsuit

Bowling Green's WBKO TV reported Thursday night that Todd County Sheriff Billy Stokes has filed a lawsuit against Judge Executive Arthur Green and the Todd County fiscal court.

Sheriff Stokes was quoted, "I'm trying to do a job the best I could do it, but I've got bills that need to be paid and I deserve to be paid."

Judge Green was quoted, "It appears that the sheriff is claiming that we owe him money and I think our records will be sufficient enough to prove that is not the case."

Evelyn Boone's weekly New Era column -- Nora Mae

Another great column in this week's Kentucky New Era by Todd County native Evelyn Boone.

Boone wrote this week of a name known by practically all Todd Countians aged 50 and up, Miss Nora Mae Fox. Fox was know as a fantistic pianist giving lessons to many locals. Nora was the organist for United Methodist Church for almost 50 years and Boone reported that she only missed one service in all those years. Truly amazing.
