Supt. Reed: Setting the record straight on land purchase Dear readers and Adair County citizens: I want to sincerely apologize for how one of my comments in last week's paper regarding my quote about purchasing the 13 acre adjoining tract of land from Mr. Sherman Wayne Burton may have come across to your readers.
