NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED by the Board of Supervisors of Rappahannock County that this Board is in favor of having all toll charges Removed for calls made within said County, and the Board respectfully requests said Companies to abolish toll charges for such calls.
It is ordered that the Clerk of this Board send certified copies of this Resolution to both of the Telephone Companies above mentioned, and to State Senator Raymond (iucst and to Delegate D. French Slaughter.
