February 8, 1978 Around Adair with Ed Waggener The article below first appeared in the February 8, 1978 issue of the Daily Statesman. Topics included a custody dispute over the C.R. Hutchison & Son Bridge, a push for a community activity center, the good deeds of Tommy Nobles and Finis Albert Harvey, and Harold Gaddis' giant loaf of bread at Harold's Steak House.--Pen By Ed Waggener The great bridge controversy Senator Doug Moseley has caused a stir at the Adair County Courthouse. He's claiming the C.R. Hutchison & Son Bridge which fell into Monroe Alley, much to the glee of the owners of the stores which have back doors on the alley, when the roof on the Adair County Health Department fell in. Moseley called Judge James Brock to tell him of his claim. "It was a long distance call," Judge Brock said, "and the Senator had to pay for it unless he was on a State WATS line. I know he's serious." Moseley says it's his bridge because he owns the front building of the old C.R. Hutchison & Sons complex. Judge Brock has taken the matter under consideration and diplomatically says to the Senator's claim, "No way!" He says, "That's the county's bridge. It was hooked between our building and the Senator's, but remember, it was our building which brought it down so that one of us could lay claim to it. The bridge is now in County custody, and probably will remain so, unless Senator Moseley introduces a private bill for relief from the County claim. Or, he could take the county to court.
