Dear Editor:

Who would attempt to shake down a volunteer fire company for money?Who would demand dues for the lots purchased for a new firehouse?Who would say it was their right to the vital funds that the fire company received for the cell tower rent?Who would have the nerve and audacity to deprive a volunteer fire company of any funds needed to operate?The very people who depend on these brave individuals to protect their lives and property are attempting to shake down their very own protectors!Would they take candy from a baby? Probably!The group that would behave in such a manner? Why it's the Mt. Pocahontas Property Owners Association.To all firemen and fire police: keep up the good work everyone else supports you!Sincerely,Eugene R. O'DonnellPenn Forest Township
