GREENVILLE —
To the editor:
I wanted to make a brief comment about the obvious concerns that have been expressed in letters about the article that was recently published about the very “sick” man and the horse. I must agree with those who have labeled it as very distasteful and unnecessary.
Maybe this outcry will send a message that this community is starving for strong, positive reports on so many of the good things that are happening in Greenville and Hunt County. I only wish that national media could also get this message. Sure, crime, murders, etc., are reality and may “sell”; but it is time these reports are minimized and stories of encouragement are maximized in all media.
Respectfully,
Jerry Speight

Cox good choice
I was born and raised in Greenville and have lived here most of my life, except for the two years my husband, Perry M. Smith, was in dental school and the two years he practiced dentistry in West Texas.

Endorsing Cox
We don’t often write letters to the editor and even more rarely endorse political candidates. But we could not pass up the opportunity to offer our wholehearted endorsement for Tyson Cox.
