E.D. Hunt, sheriff of Granville county, was elected first president of the sheriffs’ association of North Carolina, which was organized in Raleigh Friday at a meeting held in the Wake county court house at which the sheriffs of 26 counties were present. The organization is largely the results of Sheriff Hunt’s efforts, who called the meeting after correspondence with the sheriffs of the various counites of the state. The other officers elected were Vice-President B.C. Scull of Hartford county; Secretary D. Bryant Harrison of Wake county; and Treasurer O.A. Glover of Wilson county.
Mr. Hunt has served this county for several terms as sheriff and was renominated in the recent primary for another term. He is a man of executive ability, and the newborn association can rest assured that it has at its head a competent man who will lead it on to success.
From the front page of The Durham Morning Herald, Sunday, Aug. 10, 1924. There is no Hartford County in North Carolina, so I don’t know where B.C. Scull works. Probably Hertford.
