Announces Plans
Warren A. Taylor arrived at
Kodiak last Thursday via Alaska
Airlines for a short business trip
and to renew his many acquaint
ances in the city. Mr. Taylor has
been associated with Lawrence
Seltzer in the practice of law here
and at Fairbanks,
j Mr. Seltzer recently severed
' his connections with the firm and
has returned to Seattle, Wash
ington, his former home. Mr.
Taylor states that he intends to
keep the office here open until
such time as he can secure an at
torney to take over the office
permanently as he feels that
there is sufficient business here
to warrant doing so. Mr. Taylor
is making arrangements for a
competent attorney to take over
the office, but until that time
will give such service as he can
by mail. Miss Bette Plummer is
remaining in the employ of Mr.
Taylor and matters can be tak
en up with her during Mr. Tay
lor’s absence. All insurance mat
ters will be promply and effici
ently taken care of by Miss
Plummer, Mr. Taylor said.
Mr. Taylor advises that until
such time as an attorney can be
secured to take over the Kodiak
office, he will make periodical
trips to Kodiak to handle such
matters as can not be done by
mail.
Mr. Taylor plans od leaving
this weekend for Fairbanks but
will return to Kodiak at a later
date.
