Have you lost your cents?

An undisclosed number of pennies were recovered by former Park County Commissioner Marie Fontaine, while she was visiting Powell recently.

Fearing that a local youth lost them, Fontaine entrusted return responsibility upon a reliable Powell Tribune reporter.

It is a heavy load to bear and reporter Gib Mathers was tempted to skip town with his coppery jackpot. However, honesty won the day and the money has been stashed in his safe until the penniless person comes forward to claim their lost coin.

Give Mathers a call at 754-2221 and recount the monetary amount and describe the location of the lost loot.

You’ve got two weeks. After that, penny-pinching Mathers will be painting the town with someone else’s assets.
