In a contentious special meeting of the Brown County Board of Commissioners, Julius Larson’s plea for financial aid to support L Solgard, a local pauper, was met with resistance. Despite Larson’s impassioned appeal, the Board deemed Solgard fit to be sent to the Poor Home, citing no compelling reason to justify financial assistance. This decision marked a stark contrast to the Board’s generosity in other matters, as seen in their allocation of funds for road and bridge projects.
