Summary: After helping the governor sign the bill, Hedley needs to also help get the pen back in its holder. It seems the meeting is about to conclude when Miss Stein says she has an urgent telegram she received last Friday. It is from the citizens of Rock Ridge. When the governor hears the letter, he immediately jumps up and says they all need to protect their phony baloney jobs. As the minute comes to a close, Hedley is in the midst of saying that a suitable sheriff will be found.
