Dicky Flatt that you mention in the article is the finest Christian man you could ever meet, a pillar of good things in Limestone County. The reason you read about him so much in this small town is the good he never stops doing, the giving and helping he does. People like him make for a good America. Yes, everyone knows him, not just because he has a small business in a small town, but because of the good he does for all, His brother and dad were just like him, or should we say he is a chip off the old block. Part of the glue that holds this small town together, not giving way for total decay of a small American town. And you could put Bob Wright right there with the Flatts!

But for Richard Goswick, another story. Since your original article, amazingly his car dealership, located 2 blocks from that Stanford office, burned to the ground. While it has not reached this small town paper for news, the talk of the town in the local hometown, Blue Plate lunch spot, tells that this fire is now declared Arson and Richard has been indicted for cause of fire arson. Who knows? We will see.

Mexia is a great small town, fine Texas people who like most small towns in America are striving to compete with big town commerce to stay alive. A town that once grew by 40,000 overnight for Oil Rush and Federal Marshalls came in to control crowds. So much old oil money still remains in this town, and yes O.Y. Goswick and Stanfords Grandad were in the middle of the overnight get rich folks. A county rich in natural resources, oil, natural gas, and lignite coal. Wish I had a few acres of it, would be better than my SS.

Will be interesting to watch the rest of the story.
