The most popular game fish in America is the large*
mouth boss. It is the largest of the Mack bass species
which include the smallmouth and spotted bass. The
world’s record was taken from a small Georgia lake
way back in 1932. It weighed 22 pounds 4 ounces! So
if you aspire to become famous overnight, just go catch
a 23 pounder!

To the citizens
of Forsyth County
As most of you know, I am a candidate for re-election to the office of Sheriff
of Forsyth County.
I am attempting to visit as many as I possibly can, however the duties of the
Sheriffs office will not permit me to visit all of you.
For the past three and one-half years, 1 have tried to make your Sheriffs
department one that you would be proud of, by giving you honest, effective
law enforcement.
Three and one-half years ago, 1 asked the “little people” of Forsyth County,
the people who toil each week to make enough money to buy homes, keep
families clothed, who attend church on Sunday and do not break our laws, to
help elect me to the office of Sheriff. I am again depending on those same
little people to re-elect me to that office.
At a time when the crime rate is sharply on the increase over the entire
United States of America, it makes me feel so good and so thankful that
there are still enough good Christian, law abiding people in Forsyth County
to elect a Sheriff without him having to sell out to the criminals, just to
muster enough votes to win.
Yes, Forsyth County is a growing county and Forsyth County is a great
County and if you see fit to return me to the office of Sheriff of Forsyth
County, 1 will work even harder to make this county a better and safer
county.
If i do not gtt to visit you before August 8, then I ask you to remember that
I am deeply grateful for your support in the past, because there have been
times that I could not have gone on, had it not been for your prayers and
support.
I respectfully ask that you return me to the office of Sheriff of Forsyth
County by casting your vote for me in the August 8, democratic Primary.
Sincerely,
B. Donald Pirkle, Sheriff
Your Vote and Support appreciated.
