SHEBOYGAN, Wis. — The Corrupted Citizens Group, chaired by Former Princeville Mayor Delia Perkins, former Attorney Anthony Flanagan and The Daily Southerner have done it again. As you know, on July 22, this corrupted group petitions for the removal of Mayor Priscilla Everette-Oates on the grounds of her residency and breaking state law. It was proven that this corrupted group was wrong and it was wrong for The Daily Southerner to even print it. The Attorney General rejects the corrupted group's claims. Neither the corrupted group nor The Daily Southerner did their homework. They want to put out lies and not the truth; gossips and not the actual facts. Former Mayor Perkins quote, "We haven't decided our next move, yet." In order words, the next thing they would like to do to hurt, harass, gossip, lie and defame Mayor Oates' character in order to move her out of office.

Well, the next thing they did, was to lie about taxes owed on Mayor Oates and her husband's ministry, The Positive Generation In Christ Ministry in Princeville. Again, with lack of knowledge they will perish. The fact is Mayor Oates and her husband's ministry is a nonprofit organization and owe nothing.

To all the citizens of Princeville and the people of this world, former Mayor Perkins and her corrupted group of concerned citizens (who is Mayor Oates opposition) and The Daily Southerner are not concern about the Town of Princeville at all. The election is over. Former Mayor Perkins and her corrupted group and the likes of them need to get over it, move out of Mayor Oates' and her new administration way and let them do their job.

Mayor Oates thank you for the great progress you are doing and the beautiful website to keep us updated. We are expecting greater things from you and your new administration. May God bless you and keep you with the great work you are doing!

General public needs education on rights of bicyclists, sharing the road
In last week’s paper there was an article about bicycling. I think first of all the general public needs to be educated about the rights of bicyclists and sharing the road.

A glorious day was marred by a pickpocket, stealing from an eldery lady enjoying the day at the Happening on the Common on Saturday.

Remembering Betty Perrin NeSmith
Betty Perrin NeSmith was a force of nature. I hate the past tense, but it's the grammar we use when someone dies‚ Im just not sure it's the grammar Betty would use when thinking about death. She is moving on, with things to do. She was looking for a higher plane even while grounded on this earth, and I'm happy to think of her still searching out there in the other worlds.

A great example of poor judgment
TO THE EDITOR: I was having breakfast at a restaurant last week when I was asked, What do you think of the new police chief selection? I responded with, Who did they choose? Thats when I was given the devastating news it wasn't one of our own.

Who looks after our parks?
To the Editor:
There are so many wonderful aspects of living in a small town like Tarboro; we have opportunities to participate in improvement programs in gardening, home restoration courses, weight loss, summer recreation, wholesome weekend events, some of which are free, and many more that meet the interests of our residents, such as the upcoming free concert on our Town Common by the North Carolina Symphony. There’s a “Trap, Neuter, Return” organization to keep the feline population in-check. Check out the calendar page of the Daily Southerner and you will be informed of opportunities for all ages.

Thanks from United Way
To the Editor:
A remarkable group of more than 175 citizens came together recently to celebrate a major accomplishment for the communities in Edgecombe and Nash Counties. The joy was palpable at the Champions’ Luncheon as the United Way Tar River Region affirmed that the ambitious goal of raising more than $1.26 million has been reached! There was a collective sigh of relief in knowing that funds will be available to continue support for the growing number of needs in our local neighborhoods.

A recent news story about the Montford Marines honors the important and too-often forgotten group of men. However, some of the statements in the story were wrong and need correction.
