Board Resolution
To Dismiss Hopper
(Continued from page 1)
commission deoaes that my
services are no longer needed or
wanted. I didn't feel that it was a
legal matter, or that I needed an
attorney to resign or be fired. The
commission refused to meet with
me unless their attorney was
present, tip until that time 1
assumed that the commissioners
were capable of and free to speak
for themselves, and of taking
action of their own. Up until now
the commission has not presented
me with a request that I
resign.. . To my way of thinking to
resign would be an admission of
guilt of whatever it is I'm judged
guilty of by the commission and
their attorney.
"Etowever, at this time it is
quite obvious that my relations
with the commission do indeed
render my situation 'untenable,'
and ! would at this time consider
the customary 90 day notice of
resignation.
"When my attorney questioned
me as to the alleged assault it,
became apparenl that: my
interpretation of the incident was
based upon ttle apparent results
of the incident, rather than on
any clear cut recollection of the
events that actually took place.
''i was violently alld
unexpectedly attacked by an
incoherent, irrational, wild
woman who wax intent on heatint"
m y b rains out. I had no
opportunity to flee or to back
away as the area is hemmed in by
furniture and equipment and she
had hold of my shirt. I can't see
how a man can be expected to
exercise any degree of prudent
judgment at a time like that, or
to carefully weigh the ultimate
consequences of any actkm he
might take to prevent himself
from being killed or maimed...I
received numerous bumps and
lumps, scratches and bruises m
the action as well as having my
shirt and T shirt ripped to shreds.
"File injuries were nothing ot any
consequence but perhaps I shonld
have gone to tile enlergeucy room
and then called Dick Angle.
Harstine ,
Bridge
Accepted
L The Mason County Commis-
sion this week accrpled as conr
pleted the llarstinc Island Bridge.
The acceptance was on the
recommendation of County
Engineer J. C. Bridger.
Bridget stated that any claims
in connection with the
constructitm work must reach his
office no later than Sept. 25 to be
considered.
"As for my being there in the
first place on a Sunday evening,
this is not at. all unusual, as ! have
worked malay week ends and
evenings. Several hospital
personnel had been getting these
obscene, anonymous phone calls
the past few days and it looked
like we were getting to the
bottom of it. I had been told by
another employee that they
would wait for me in the store
room, as they had more
information on the phone
calls....When 1 got there Lois
Sollars was there by herself, much
to my surprise. Mrs. Sollars had
gone to two of the commissioners
regarding stock room records,
once on Salurday, Aug. 2, and
again Sunday evening, after the
incident. Neither of the
ct)mmissioners apparently knew
enough about the operation of
tile hospital regarding these
records to know that these
records were quite incomplete,
and of no particular or significant
value to the hospital or anyone
else, until they met with lhe
Auditor the next morning."
tlopper c()mntented this week
on his work in connection with
the establishment of the new
Mason General Ilospital. lie said:
"Running the old hospital was
a full tinle joh. Since mid-sumnter
1964, I also did virtually all the
pick and shovel work of forming
the district conducting three
political campaigns, programing,
planning, equipping and setting
up the new hospital. An outside
consultant would have cost
somewhere between $50,000 and
$100,000 to do what I did. I did
not receive one dinte over my
regular salary for performing
these services -. even lho' the
attorney at one point suggested
that some urrangement be made
tt) do SO,"
