1 ^Thursday, July 16. 1959 THE McHENRY PLAIWDEALER McCullom Lake WILL PROSECUTE VANDALISM AT TOLD SHOW BARN i Ev$ Levesque !' spite of repeated warn- [ ings that this is private property and trespassers will not •be tolerated the vandalism ' continues at the old show barn located on the Northern Pump Co. Farm located at Gate 1, just beyond the village limits. EJxtensive repairs are being done, and more work is contemplated, but first the damage MUST be stopped. Win- 'd®vs have been replaced and ' knocked out again, light fixatures have been installed only to have them broken, and many light bulbs have "gone down the drain" because of the mischief. Brad Scott has found it necessary to add this warning! If the vandalism does not cease, arrests will be made, and violators will be prosed ®ed to the fullest extent of the law. No one is permitted on the property without express permission from the owners or from Mr. Scott, himself. Parents" can co-operate by admonishing their youngsters to keep away from the barn. It is suspected that much of the damage is being done just before or right after dark, when supervision is not so Swong.
