All, I'm sorry if the tone of my message seemed harsh to anyone. I wrote my message late last night and didn't notice until today, how it may have sounded to some. I didn't intend to be critical of anyone for not subscribing. My intent was to give a plug for the Bulletin, the Lawrence County Historical Society, and all the interesting stories and information that appear in the Bulletin. I wanted to encourage people to join and get the Bulletin. And Pat, your response did not generate my comments above. Your kind message was most appreciated. Simply re-reading my message in the "daylight" led me to decide that I should have worded it differently. Again, my apologies.

ROSS, I only started to get the bulletin (which I love) about 3 years ago. Is there any plan of the Historical Society to publish a booklet of back issues for sale? I know I would be interested in buying such a booklet. Or are back issues available for sale now? I know they have some at the library in Mt. Vernon but there is never enough time on a visit there to get thru everything available. Thanks.
