Candidacy of Richard T. Bennett for Sheriff (date unknown)
No. 233a - Uncited clippings from the "Neva Murphy Hubbard Collection" of Beth Rengers Talken, 1998.


This well-known Democrat and farmer jumped into the political field four years ago and justified the expectations of his friends in his race for Sheriff. He had three strong competitors, one of them close at home, and yet he won second place in the race, which was "going some" for a new man. He is a solid, substantial farmer, a good Democrat and well qualified to discharge the duties of the office of Sheriff, which he will ask at the hands of the Democracy. Mr. BENNETT has lived in the vicinity of Troy many years past and stands high among his neighbors.
