Tamworth selectman muzzles CMI lawyer
Farnum threatens to have lawyer removed from meeting BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN
TAMWORTH — A lawyer for Club Motorsports Inc. was nearly thrown out of last week's selectmen's meeting for attempting to speak. CMI was there to address a report that accused the organization of repeatedly violating the town's wetlands ordinance. The report by soil scientist Gregory Howard alleges CMI violated the town's
wetlands ordinance seven times in the pursuit of constructing a driving-themed country club. According to Howard, any construction activity in a 25-foot buffer from wetlands and water bodies was supposed to require a special-use permit from the town. His reports said CMI didn't have a permit but was disturbing the area inside what he considers to be the buffer. see CMI page 10

Patrick Connors shows off his diploma as he and 183 fellow Kennett High seniors graduate in the school’s gym Saturday. Rain in the morning forced the ceremony inside but graduates made the best of it with speeches; songs from the select choirs and symphonic band; and the latest tradition of passing around beach balls. Connors switched caps with fellow student Monique Cormier, and many other students wrote or drew pictures on the tops. More photos, page 9. (JAMIE GEMMITI PHOTO)

CONWAY — A Massachusetts man spent a night in the hospital after he broke his leg rock climbing on Cathedral Ledge on Sunday.
He had to be rescued from a face 250 feet up. Mark Gallagher, a 48-year-old engineer from Topsfield, Mass., was climbing Recompense, a classic route up the center of the cliff, when he fell, hit a ledge and suffered a compound fracture of his lower left leg.

Gallagher had climbed Recompense several times before, he said, and he knew he was heading into the most difficult moves on the climb. see CLIMBER page 12
