A VOTER CONFESSES
I am guilty and want to make a public confession.
I failed to vote on September 9th. I knew I could vote
for my congressman in the run-off and I thought our
Justice of Peace would make a landslide. Rut I took too
much for granted and too many other voters did the
same.
On September 23rd I will not consider myself too
busy to go to the polls and lend' a helping hand to a
man presently unable to help himself. Regardless of
what is being talked, M. C. Fain, Jr., who has handled
the office well for eleven years, will return here soon
and be physically able to again handle the office. Be
cause of arthritis in his feet there might not be much
else he can find to do to support his wife and five
children. His lungs have healed but one healed too
quickly. For fear of trouble returning in future years,
the doctors advised an operation scheduled for any day
now. Fain was here for a brief visit recently, and look
ed fine. He wanted to see us all but his time was
short and he wanted to be with his family as much as
possible. He did not ask us for sympathy. He asked us
to again give him the job he now holds and he promised
to operate the office in a manner that will merit our
confidence. In this office he deals with policemen, sher
iff and troopers. Have you ever heard of Mack Fain
not cooperating with any of them?
Mack Fain is not asking for a better living, but
just the same living. He does not draw a peace officers
pension or a social security pension. He does not draw
one dime of any kind' of pension. He did not send, but
went himself, leaving family behind and fought for us
in the South Pacific. He suffered many hardships while
I was here with my family suffering only a shortage of
gasoline and steak- God spared his life through « many
close call including^two plane crashes. God spared hint 1
in the Veterans Hospital where he is now after doctors
stood over him and said, “he will not last through the
night.” lam sure we will all be praying that God will
again spare his life through this operation which he
may be undergoing while we are voting. If so, he will
return to us a new Mack Fain.
Mack Fain is doing his part for humanity while in
the hospital by assisting the chaplain in counciling
with men whose path Mack Fain has trod and under
stands. Many of those veterans have no wife and child
ren and see no need in fighting to live.. Mack helps to
keep up their morale. He has a /wife and children and
has almost won another battle so he can return to them,
and to the ofice of Justice of Peace which lies in our
hands. Mack has a big heart and would do anything
for any of us. He would not be unkind to a dog and
certainly not to a child, regardless of circumstances-
With his even temper and good judgment, he would
work things out in a “fatherly way.”
I am not kin to Mack Fain in any way and have
never been a close friend. I am just a voter who first
considers qualifications, then the man and his circum
stances. The new law will not allow me, not even Mack s
wife, to ask for votes within 250 feet of the court
house. If it was possible, lam sure that she, the
daughter of our late beloved Dr. Will Brunson, who
spent his life doing for others, would be at the polls
and I would be at her side.
I will not be too busy on September 23rd but what
I can stop long enough to go and vote for a man who
right at this time is unable to defend himself .He is
550 miles away looking at four walls and looking to
his friends. My vote and all in my family will be cast
for Mack Fain. I pray you will do likewise.
