of 150 or 160 pounds as he now has
acquired the weight of "50 pounds
and is the heaviest man in the court
house at Hartington.
The Cedar county sheriff is prob
ably the dean of all the county law
enforcing officers in the state and he
has been in the harness for a T
period of years and has made ..
great record in the office.
"I guess I was a little fellow all
right," the sheriff relates. "I have a
stocking which is about as big as my
forefinger, the foot as long as from
the tip to the first joint."
At high school age the sheriff
weighed 120 pounds.
