This is not Red River County, but a man almost 20 yrs older that me was eating at the Subway in Pittsburg a couple of weeks ago and ask me to set at his table. He told me his name was Abernathy and he was the mayor of Pittsburg (Tx). I then recalled seeing his picture in the Pittsburg Gazette as I have been working there 2 days a week for the last several months. He told me a little of Pittsburg history, like the first man to ever parachute out of an airplane was at Pittsburg in 1909. (long story). This week I read in The Gazette (the people at work always buy a Gazette to read the police report) that Mayor D.H. Abernathy has filed to run for another term as Pittsburg mayor. "This is his 49th year to serve in that capacity". This will put him over 50 years as major. I figure this has to be some kind of record. Jim Giddens Paris, Tx
