Mayor Aultman and Policeman Strother recently resigned their respective positions in Ellerbe. The town commissioners, A.T. White, Jas. R. Bennett and J.H. McRae, met on Tuesday of last week and appointed R.A. Easterling to fill the vacancy as Mayor and Policeman until the regular town meeting is held in the spring to nominate a ticked for the town election. And so Mr. Easterling has the distinction of being a 2-in-1 man—Mayor and Chief of Police combined.
