REV. A. V. RICHEY
RETURNS TO PALMER
The Rev. and Mrs. A. V. Richey
and family returned to Palmer
after a month’s vacation and busi
ness trip to Texas where Mr.
Richey attended the Southern
Baptist Convention held in Hous
ton.
The Richeys intended to be
home sooner but were delayed
near Edmonton, Canada for re
pairs after their car smashed into
a bridge which was nearly a foot
higher than the ground approach,
according to Mr. Richey. The bot
tom of the vehicle required ex
tensive repairs before the trip
north could be resumed.
"Despite our difficulties we had
a thoroughly enjoyable and suc
cessful trip,” said Mr. Richey.
