forcement is not an easy job,"

said Florida's Commissioner ofAgriculture Doyle Conner. "It is

not a job for an ordinary man,but Monroe Branncn is not anordinary man. He has served in

law enforcement with distinc-tion over 30 years, first with theLakeland Police Department,then as a constable, and sincel960 as Sheriff of Polk County. "

Turning to the Sheriff headded: "Monroe, we are proudof you. We need more publicservants as dedicated as you.

"The occasion was an "ap-

preciation dinner" sponsored bythe Polk County DemocraticExecutive Committee to honorSheriff Brannen.

It was held in the Lake-land Civic Center, March 26,and Commissioner Conner wasthe featured speaker. He remind-ed the large audience that heand the Slteriff were both nativesof Union County, Florida,where "Monroe's Uncle Wiley"(W. S. Brannen, Jr.) had beensheriff back in the 20's and30's.

Tenth Judicial CircuitPublic Defender Lee Roy Hor-ton, Jr. , also praised SheriffBrannen as "a steadfast man"and presented him with anappreciation plaque.

Slteriff Brannen is Chair-man of thc Sheriffs Association'sBoard of Directors; and a mem-ber of the Florida Sheriffs BoysRanch Board of Trustees.

Boys Ranch Memorial Will Honor John P. Hall

GREEN COVE SPRINGS —A

special fund was created hereMarch 26 to establish a per-manent memorial at thc FloridaSheriffs Boys Ranch honoringthe late John P. Hall, who serveda record 36 years as sheriff ofClay County until he retiredin 1965.

Contributions can be mailedto the Boys Ranch, Live Oak,and the Hall family will receive

John P. HaH

a list of all donors.The former Sheriff, who also

had a distinguished career as a

banker, cattleman and timberman, died March 24 at thc

age of 75.He was one of the founders of the Boys Ranch in l957,

became its first trcasurcr, and was still serving on thc Boardof Trustees at the time of' his death.

He was a past presidrnt and treasurer of the Florida SheriffsAssociation; and served on thc Administrative Board of theFlorida Sheriffs Burrau.

At funeral services March 26 he was described as "a manto whom God imparted many talents —an understandingand sympathetic Shrrift' who always had time. for people.

"John P. Hall was elected Sheriff for the first time in

1928 and went into office with the barest rudiments of hisprofession —a Model A Ford, a pistol, a badge and onc deputy.

There were few paved roads, and the versatility of histrusty Model A was thc only thing that prevented him fromriding horseback to carry out his county-wide duties.

One of his first moves was to have a telephone installed.Other improvements followed, and his long career was markedby constant efforts to expand and modernize thc Sheriff'sOffice in pace with thc progress of the county.
