G. F. Lowry
for Sheriff
Because of the last term of court; the unusual amount of petty and criminal work; and the regular duties of the sheriff's office I have not had an opportunity to make a thorough canvass of the county. I appreciate the loyal support of my friends in the past and wish to announce that I am a candidate for the re-election and ask for a continuance of your support.
In the management of the affairs of the office, I have treated everyone alike; have been fair with all who came in touch with the office; have taken the job seriously; and have given my entire time to the duties of the office, in fact the office has given twenty-hour service to the work. I point with considerable pride to my record in office, which has been during a period of years when there has been more criminal and civil work than has ever before been done in the sheriff's office.
Since my tenure in office I have had 475 prisoners in the county jail; and fines have amounted to more than the entire expense of the office. If I am re-elected I promise to give the people of Osceola County the best service of which I am capable.

YOUR SUPPORT IS EARNESTLY SOLICITED
AND WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED
====== My Service is Yours ======
G.F. Lowry
HONESTLY AND EFFICIENCY IN OFFICE
