Book on Trump has answers some seek

Letter writer’s retort was spot on

After perusing the latest issues of your fine publication, I initially prepped and cleansed my verbal firearms to return fire to Mr. Chasse of St Agatha and Mr. Cyr of Madawaska. I was chomping at the bit for the retaliation I wished to fire off.

To the editor: Some of us Democrats had Republican fathers. That's true in my case, so as I look into family history, I find elements of bipartisn political history.

Partisanship endangers our country

It seems Mr. Cyr is looking for some answers to my letter in the times: 3/ 27/ 19. Except for number 4 these questions seem pretty lame but I’ll answer them all anyway.

Please slow down, before tragedy strikes

My family and I reside on Main Street in Fort Kent. We have a decent sized lot for having a home in town, and we are within walking distance to the park, river, downtown shopping, and whatever else we need.
