FISCHER ON APPOINTMENT AS WARDEN OF HURON The regular meeting of council was held on February 6th with all members present, The Reeve was presented with a set of gold cuff links and a bouquet of roses, by members of council and officials 'in honor of his recent appointment as Warden of Huron County. The presenta- tion address was given by council- lor Smith, Mr. Reeve and Councilmen- This being the first meeting of our council since the appointment and installation of our worthy Reeve, John V. Moeller, as the new Warden of the County of Huron it seems fitting that we, the mem- bers of Turnberry Council, should express our congratulations on his elevation to this high and.respon- sible position and our good wishes for his success during the year 1956. This appointment has brought distinct honor, not only td our Reeve, hut to our Township. It is over 60 years since the honor has come to a member of Turnberry Township, anti this. distinction seems to point up the fact that while our Township may be one of the smallest hi the County, never- theless its place, importance and value are given recognition and its people considered just as worthy as those in any other part of the County, We feel too that this appoint- ment, while it was not an easy one to arrive at, for a precedent was set in the county in that the election was the result of the fifth ballot, we feel that the honor could not have fallen upon a worthier, or more deserving or harder working member of Coun- cil, It is a recognition of his gifts and virtues, and his ability to give calm and good leadership, Our highly esteemed Reeve, and now Warden - of the County, has served us with distinction in the past four years as our Reeve, and this is actually his sixth year on the Turnberry Council. He enjoys the goodwill of his fellow corineil- lors and the esteem and confidence of our electorate, and I now take pleasure in extending our con- gratulations and pride" over the recognition of his experience and qualities as a man, and his ability to serve the County of Huron as faithfully and as well as he has served our Township during the past four years. • On behalf of the Cotincil, Signed-A, D.
