February 22, 1951Removal of Band Stand
The old bandstand in the courthouse park wasa razed Monday and Tuesday by the county road gang. The structure, more than 30 years old, was declared unsafe following a few minor accidents. Also destroyed was the concrete base that supported an old cannon placed in the courtyard under the administration of the late Clinton J. LEWIS as mayor of Mount Ayr. The cannon was contributed to the scrap metal drive during World War II.
