I am extremely proud and yet very humble to receive a vote
of' confidence &om. the electors of' our municipality ~ During
this year there will.haveto be many decisions made by this'
Council, some of' which will meet with the f'avour of ou.r
people while others will not be popular 'but, nevertheless, .
in.the best interests of' the Township of' Clarke. I would
like to remind you that you are as of' this day a servant of'
the people of' this muniCipality. They have put their trust.
in you, accept it and guard it jealously~ PlantAe essential
