Cutting, accused of homicide, admits placing 911 call Defendant admits to slaying in recording

The case is slated to go to trial in December.

The 911 recording was one of six items entered as evidence at a hearing held before Judge Richard B. Meyer in Essex County Court.

Cutting has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | A tape of the emergency 911 call placed after a shooting at the Adirondack Eagles Club in Moriah last April was played in court Friday.

Defendant Cody R. Cutting placed the call, admitting to police that he fatally shot Derek “Boomer” Sprague in a parking lot outside the club. The call reached dispatch at about 8:09 p.m. on April 22.

Cutting has been charged with second-degree murder, a class A felony; second-degree manslaughter, a class C felony; and seconddegree menacing, a class A misdemeanor.

“Hey, I just killed a guy,” Cutting said in a shrill voice through what seemed like high-pitched sobs.

“He was about to beat me up,” the accused man said sounding out of breath.

“I liked Boomer,” Cutting told Essex County Dispatcher Chelsey Crossman, who took the call.

Crossman testified that the recording was the call placed by Cutting.

“Is there people with you?” she asked “I ran like hell,” Cutting said. “I’m running from these f***ers.”

The courtroom was about half filled and very still as the tape rolled.

The tape indicates Cutting, seeming breathless, stayed on the phone as State Police Trooper Jason Peters got on the line.

After running from the club, he hid behind the Mineville Oil building and waited for police.

Crossman stayed on the line, muted.

Peters asked if he had a gun.

“No, no gun on me. I’m clear,” Cutting said.

“Do you want to turn yourself in?” Peters asks.

“Yeah, I’m fine with that,” Cutting responds.

“Are you behind the building?” Peters asks.

“Yeah, I’m hiding here,” Cutting says.

Scattered bits of information come through the sobbing as he spoke with police.

There were a “bunch of people” at the bar and there was a “fight going on all night,” according to Cutting’s call.

“I promise I didn’t mean to do that,” he says of shooting a fellow Moriah resident.

Cutting then asks to call police back in

Community forum regarding proposed school merger set

Sept. 25 forum will precede the Oct. 9 vote

ELIZABETHTOWN | Sun Community News will host a community forum to discuss the proposed merger of Westport Central School (WCS) and Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School (ELCS).

The event will take place on Tuesday, Sept. 25 at 6 p.m. at the Depot Theatre in Westport.

The forum is free and open to the public.

Coming Soon to the North Country CARPENTER & ASSOCIATES Insuring Agenc

Community members from both school districts are expected to attend, along with state representatives, board members, school administrators and the media.

The community forum will offer a panel discussion moderated by Sun Community News Publisher Dan Alexander and Managing Editor Pete DeMola.

The panel comprises community members who have differing opinions of the proposed merger.

“The Sun has assembled a group of community members who are willing to take part,” said DeMola. “Some members of the group are in favor of a merger, some are against it and some are undecided. There is also a member of the merger study panel who will be taking part. The panel represents each school district — the participants are willing to share their thoughts publicly during the moderated discussion.”

According to Jane Hooper, brand and marketing manager at The Sun, the organization has one more panel seat to fill.

“We are hoping to find a resident of the Elizabethtown– Lewis School District who views the proposed merger unfavorably to take part in the discussion,” she said. “Alternatively, we would be willing to include a person from the district whose position is undecided. Anyone interested should contact me at the paper.”

Hooper can be contacted at 518-873-6368 ext. 205.

The Sun has been following the progress of the conversations for many months, through merger study meeting attendance, board meeting attendance, conversations within the communities and by following the conversations on social media.

At the recent ELCS and WCS school board meetings, the boards voted to let their respective school districts make the decision through straw polls scheduled for Oct. 9.

This straw poll tests the communities’ opinions to determine if the districts are supportive of the proposed merger.

If both communities vote in the affirmative, the boards of directors, school administrators and New York State Department of Education will begin the process that will develop a merged district.

It will also lead to a community-wide referendum in December, solidifying the decision. A negative vote on Oct. 9 in either community will halt the process, and the district will not merge. At that point, the merger proposal cannot be revisited for 365 days.

Since the two districts are about to cast their collective opinion regarding a merger, this community forum is being arranged to take place ahead of that vote.

DeMola said he has had conversations with those in favor of a merger and also with community members who view it as less favorable.

“While reading the merger study’s findings is important, it is also imperative to have open discussion. This is a topic that has led to some heated discussion among friends and neighbors with differing opinions,” he said.

“A community forum will allow those in favor of a merger and those against the merger to be heard publicly, along with those who may still be undecided, so that everyone can make an informed decision,” he said.

According to Publisher Dan Alexander, it is important for The Sun to encourage discussion.

“Our newspapers serve these local school districts and communities so we all have a vested interest in this issue,” he said.

“I firmly believe that community-based newspapers have a responsibility to community members and the region – helping to share information with one another, especially when debating such significant issues that can affect our communities for years to come. We are eager to help foster information sharing and good, thoughtful discussion by engaging our community members and then reporting on the outcome of those discussions.” ■

Saranac Lake Winter Carnival volunteers wanted Meeting slated for Sept. 25

SARANAC LAKE | Members of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee are seeking volunteers to help them plan and facilitate the next 10-day festival, set for Feb. 1-10, 2019.

There are many areas that people can help either in the planning before or during the carnival.

Volunteers are encouraged to attend the next committee meeting, to be held at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 25 in the Large Group Instruction (LGI) room at Saranac Lake High School.

“Winter Carnival is possible through the help of volunteers,” said Jeff Branch, chairman of the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival Committee. “We welcome new people to join us as we kick-off our 2019 planning.”

Volunteering on the Winter Carnival Committee is a fun way to support the community and an opportunity to meet

people from around the community.

Visitors from around the world will travel to this village to celebrate the annual Saranac Lake Winter Carnival featuring a “Prehistoric Park” theme for 2019.

The carnival is the longest-running event of its kind in the eastern U.S. dating to 1897 when it began as a one-day event to break the monotony of the long Adirondack winter and has grown into a 10-day festival that includes sports, performances, two parades and three sets of spectacular fireworks. ■

By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

ELIZABETHTOWN | New York’s Public Health Works honored Susan Lopez Allot, director of Essex County Public Health Unit (PHU), as a member of the statewide 2018 Honor Roll.

The honor roll recognizes important and crucial work performed by public health professionals.

According to the state DOH announce-

ment, “Allot fosters a collaborative work environment, allowing employees to reach their full potential.”

The state agency recognized Essex County’s PHU director as “instrumental in guiding the department toward national public health accreditation.

“Through this process Susan led the development and adoption of a PHU Workforce Development Plan, encouraging staff to be lifelong learners and seek opportunities to develop leadership skills through personalized employee workplans by building on strengths and passions.”

DOH said Allott both introduced and facilitates regular Quality Improvement meetings “which have led to an increase in data-driven policy revisions, common-sense business practices and other improvements in the workplace.”

Essex County Public Health Director Linda Beers said Allott’s work is exemplary.

“Her extensive, broad-scope, background from clinical care to public policy development is a driving force at the Essex County Health Department. Her detailed work-plans assure our department stays on track and aligns with the vision, mission and values of the Prevention Agenda and our community.

“I am honored to work with her as we strive to improve the health of our citizens,” Beers told the Sun via email.

The honor was brought to the attention of Essex County supervisors during the Human Services Committee meeting on Monday.

With 15 years of service at the Public Health department, Allott was the only honoree from Essex County. ■

Local architectural history guide wins merit award from AASLH real estate auction Richard Longstreth receive the award at the Leadership in History Awards

KEESEVILLE | The American Association for State and Local History (AASLH) has announced Richard Longstreth as the recipient of an award of merit for “A Guide to Architecture in the Adirondacks,” published by Adirondack Architectural Heritage in Keeseville.

Presentation of the award will be made at a special banquet during the 2018 AASLH annual meeting in Kansas City, Missouri on Sept. 28.

The AASLH Leadership in History Awards, now in its 73rd year, is the most prestigious recognition for achievement in the preservation and interpretation of state and local history.

“A Guide to Architecture in the Adirondacks” is the result of over six years of research and writing by Richard Longstreth, a seasonal resident of Keene Valley and professor of American studies at George Washington University.

A fellow and past president of the Society of Architectural Historians, Longstreth has also served as president of the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy. He is a former board member of Adirondack Architectural Heritage and the Fort Ticonderoga Association.

With over 850 entries from nearly every community in the Adirondack Park, “A Guide to Architecture in the Adirondacks” includes a discussion of changing settlement patterns over time and the varied, sometimes conflicting economic factors that shaped the land.

The book itself underscores the importance of the human legacy in the Adirondacks, revealing the richness and variety of the region’s history in built form.

This year, AASLH conferred forty-four national awards honoring people, projects, exhibits and publications.

» Cutting Cont. from pg. 1

Lembo arrived after a short time and transported the suspect in the front seat of his troop car to state police headquarters at the Essex County Public Safety Building.

Giroux read Miranda Rights to Cutting and then interviewed him.

Prosecutors asked each of the law enforcement officers if the suspected shooter was compliant.

Each testified, in turn, that Cutting was compliant.

‘I THINK I KILLED HIM’

On the way to the police station, Lembo said Cutting started uttering statements relevant to the incident.

And Lembo included them in his formal police statement.

“I think I killed him...I think I killed Boomer...I liked him,” Cutting had allegedly said. “I had to...I loved that guy... ‘Rocket was going to kill me.’”

O’Brien asked Lembo if Cutting was cooperative en route to the state police station.

“He was cooperative, but he seemed kind of in shock about the situation,” Lembo said.

“Was he anything other than cooperative?” O’Brien asked.

“No,” Lembo answered.

When O’Brien asked if Cutting seemed upset, Lembo said “Slightly, not in an erratic way. There was regret.”

It wasn’t until he sat in the interview room with Giroux that Derek’s Sprague’s death was formally confirmed to Cutting.

“I wanted to hear his side of the story before being told Derek Sprague was deceased,” Giroux said.

Warren County DA Carusone played segments of the videotaped police interview in court.

Giroux’s supervisor, State Police Senior Investigator John Donahue is seen during one section of the interview telling Cutting “Boomer’s gone.”

In the video, Cutting appears to put his head down on both hands and begin sobbing.

“You have blood on you, you okay?” Donahue asked.

“I don’t know sir,” Cutting answered.

“Will I be allowed to see my boy?” Cutting, who is from Moriah, asked the officers.

There is a period of silence in response.

“Sir, to be honest with you, I’m going to have to have a lawyer,” Cutting said, ending the interview.

Giroux said he stopped asking questions at that point. ■

Listening to the recording play, the defendant sat with his attorney Kevin O’Brien of the firm O’Brien & Wood PLLC of Albany.

Cutting appeared to grimace, placing his forehead against one hand briefly as the tape began to play.

Wearing black-and-white Essex County prison garb, Cutting, 30, arrived at court in handcuffs, which were removed for the four-hour hearing.

The chain connecting his ankles remained in place.

Special prosecutors are presenting the murder case against Cutting.

Sprague, 45, was the brother of Essex County District Attorney Kristy Sprague, who sat in the gallery for the hearing. At times she watched testimony through tears.

Warren County District Attorney Jason Carusone and his Assistant Attorney Matt Burin called five witnesses to the Huntley Hearing, a pretrial court proceeding that reviews how police obtain statements from a defendant.

In addition to Crossman, Carusone called State Police Trooper Steven Hutter, Essex County Sheriff’s Deputy William “Billy” Allen, State Police Trooper Christopher Lembo and State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation Investigator Trever Giroux.

The sequence of testimony followed police response from Cutting’s 911 call through to the video-recorded interview with the State Police investigator about two hours later.

The effort to secure Cutting happened about 1.2 miles north of where Sprague was shot and killed.

Hutter said Cutting came out from his hiding place behind the oil company building with his hands up. The suspected shooter, Hutter said, followed orders to lay face down on the ground, and was handcuffed.

Allen was called in by the sheriff to back-up Hutter’s initial response in Mineville Center.

“While he’s on the ground, he also said, ‘Billy, I’m not going to give you a hard time,” Allen testified.

Cutting told Allen that the gun, a .45 caliber Springfield, was between the front seats of his truck at the Eagles Club.

Allen assisted Hutter in a pat-down search as Cutting lay handcuffed on the ground.

He then went to find the firearm.

“I don’t make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts,” — Will Rodgers, American actor and humorist.

“I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle,” — Winston Churchill, former British prime minister.

“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it,” — Ronald Reagan, American actor, California governor and 40th U.S. president.

“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power,” — Abraham Lincoln, statesman, politician and 16th U.S. president.

“Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future,” — John F. Kennedy, senator and 35th U.S. president.

“The future is not an inheritance; it’s an opportunity and an obligation,” — William Jefferson Clinton, Arkansas governor and 42nd U.S. president.

“It is far better to be alone than it is to be in bad company,” — George Washington, American general and first U.S. president.

“Politics is when you say you are going to do one thing while intending to do another. Then do neither what you said nor what you intended,” — Saddam Hussein, Iraq president.

And lastly, a little fact to keep in mind; George Washington is the only president that has not blamed the previous administration. ■

but challenges remain Eight months after a pair of tariffs imposed by the Trump administration raised Canadian newsprint imports by double-digits, the fees are dead.

The International Trade Commission torpedoed the tariffs in a 5-0 decision late last month, ruling that a single U.S. hedge fund-owned paper mill failed to demonstrate they were being put an unfair disadvantage

Return to states rights on social issues may ease growing tensions

To the Editor: Recent letters to the editor indicate a wide philosophical division amongst Americans.

It is time we all respect the will of the voters, as will I, whether it be for legislators or for president, regardless of party.

Some believe that some illegality may be beneficial for the country. I believe that any endorsement of illegal acts only breeds more illegality.

Adherence to the rule of law and compassion need not be mutually exclusive. We have been the proud sponsors of needy, elderly Latinos for three decades through Unbound, a Christian organization. Only $25 a month fully cares for an aged person. Join, and you’ll be able to walk the walk.

Any mob action intended to intimidate should be condemned by all of us. The new secular morality may be irreconcilable with the traditional Bible-based morality.

Massive fines on the Little Sisters of the Poor and punishment on a family-owned cake baking business for refusing to make a particular cake for a homosexual marriage highlights this.

Perhaps, it is time for a return to state’s rights on social issues.

Truth is no longer truth

To the Editor: I cannot tell a lie.

We all know the fable regarding George Washington’s admission of having chopped down the cherry tree.

Flash forward to 2018 as the current occupant of the White House has reportedly equivocated (substitute ‘lied’) on some 4,000 occasions since Jan. 20, 2017, as documented by the “fake news” Washington Post.

It would appear that we as a nation have stumbled down the rabbit hole, where up is down and nothing is as it seems.

Recently on Meet the Press, prognosticator-in-chief Rudy pontificated (absent irony, I might add) that, “truth isn’t truth.”

Meanwhile, Huckabee Sanders repeats bald-faced lies with impunity during daily press briefings and Kelly Anne banters with Chris Cuomo on CNN, spouting all manner of specious nonsense.

In short order, the self-designated spokesman for the “Ministry of Truth” and purported leader of the free world denigrates former White House Counsel

Alden isn’t the only culprit.

There’s GateHouse Media, which continues to vacuum up newspapers across the country with the goal of increasing dividends for their shareholders — not giving newsrooms the tools they need to thrive and serve the community, much less charting a long-term plan to ensure a sustainable business model.

The company announced last week they will close five newspapers in Arkansas, leaving each of these communities without a source for local news.

And despite the reprieve of the tariffs, the powerhouse still used the price hike to shutter the Stockton Record in California, the newspaper announced last week.

As the landscape continues to shift, it’s the local companies that seem to be embracing their communities — not absentee owners. ■

John Dean as a “rat” for telling the truth and exposing Nixon’s high crimes and misdemeanors, disparages Lester Holt for having fudged the tape of his NBC interview and lambastes NFL players for freely expressing what their consciences dictate.

As Jon Meacham recently noted in his tome “The Soul of America,” this is an individual who hasn’t benefited from history’s perspective, lessons garnered through adversity by his esteemed predecessors.

He doesn’t read, reflect or heed well-intended advice or criticism from adversaries or his own subordinates. Rather, he behaves impulsively and petulantly, ranting, whining and dissembling at will.

As John Dean aptly attested, “The man is an empty vessel.”

Conceivably, had Trump chainsawed the cherry tree, he would invariably have complained that the subsequent report of the incident was “a very dishonest witch hunt concocted by the very dishonest fake media.”

garding the Labor Day parade in Port Henry, “Grand marshal names sought.”

It asked people to nominate candidates for parade grand marshal.

Nominations were due by Aug. 15. My family wanted to nominate a long-time member of the community. Then we saw a posting on Facebook dated July 18 announcing the winners of the grand marshal positions.

It was almost a month before the deadline. I called the Port Henry Chamber of Commerce and spoke to a woman about the dates.

Before I could finish, she told me three people had already been chosen.

I told her they were fine choices, but I didn’t feel the process had been handled in a professional manner. She told me that the nominees got more votes than anyone else would ever get even if she accepted any more letters.

Nothing in your article indicated that the winner would be chosen by the number of votes received. I presumed the person’s merits determined the winner. I asked why she hadn’t at least waited until the deadline to announce winners.

She yelled at me, “Why don’t you come down here and try to do my job!” and hung up the phone.

I thought about what she said — we can all have a bad day — so I called back and left a message that I would like to discuss the issue. I didn’t hear back. » Letters Cont. on pg. 7 This free community newspaper exists to serve the informational needs of the community and to stimulate a robust local economy.

Pence flawed, but he would be an improvement over Trump

To the Editor: Liberal Democrats, contrary to the opinion expressed by a reader last week, don’t want to “depose” Mr. Trump.

Deposing is a violent, sudden removal from office. Impeachment is a deliberative, grand jury-like process that may eventually lead to a Senate trial.

There’s sufficient evidence for Congressional committees to investigate the president for high crimes (obstruction of justice and violations of the emoluments clause) and misdemeanors (rampant lying, incompetence and corruption).

If the House passes articles of impeachment and two-thirds of the Senate votes to remove Trump, Vice President Pence will indeed become president — unless he resigns due to his connection with a disgraced administration.

So, the reader asks, wouldn’t liberal Democrats “hate” Pence, a “Christian-value based” ideologue?

No. Christian values, such as social justice, feeding the hungry, clothing the poor and caring for the sick are entirely consistent with liberalism.

Christians really ought to pray for Trump’s removal. Isn’t he a paragon of selfishness?

Didn’t he appoint many unscrupulous cabinet members and staff, brag about sexual assault, exploit racism and encourage violence at his rallies? How does that, plus threatening nuclear war or borrowing billions to finance a corporate tax cut resemble Christian values?

A booming, overstimulated economy is no impeachment defense. Illegal immigration, despite draconian, un-Christian measures, is increasing. Our standing in the world has precipitously declined under this administration with China as the main beneficiary.

If character still matters to them, if they still embrace libertarianism, conservatives should also support Trump’s removal. Immorality, trade wars, arbitrary deportations, industrial subsidies, denial of due process and curtailing freedom of the press are anathema to conservatives.

So Christians, conservatives and liberals might actually agree on something: Pence might be flawed, but he’s a big improvement over Trump.

Follow the money in Congress race

To the Editor: “Representative to Congress.”

Nice title. It should mean someone who actually represents the people of the district.

Stefanik claims to represent us, but she has voted against the Clean Power Plan which protects our region from out of state pollution, acid rain, etc. She defended that vote with her usual smoke and mirrors.

She claimed that instead, she supported H. Res. 424 which states, “the House of Representatives commits to working constructively, using our tradition of American ingenuity, innovation, and exceptionalism, to create and support economically viable, and broadly supported private and public solutions to study and address the causes and effects of climate change.”

Of course, that bill was just bluster and didn’t commit to do anything, and it never made it out of committee. But, it sounds good in her sound bites and major donor Koch Industries approves.

Follow the money.

For the current election, as of latest reported filings, Stefanik received only 26 percent of her funding from within New York state, and only 7 percent from within our district.

These numbers are very similar to her previous two elections. This makes sense since she never actually lived in our district.

So, I ask you, who owes outside interests and does she actually represent us, the people of the 21st District?

Hint: Less than 7 percent of Stefanik’s money comes from our district.

Sixty percent of Stefanik’s money comes from PACs/committees.

At present, New York’s 21st Congressional District does not have a representative. What we have is a body sitting in Congress who has been bought and paid for by outside interests.

Just follow the money.

Hike to showcase Viall’s Crossing project

WESTPORT | Champlain Area Trails (CATS) will host a hike to coincide with the Adirondack Harvest Festival on Saturday, Sept. 15. Hikers will begin and end at the festival on the Essex County Fairgrounds in Westport. The hike starts at 10 a.m.

Hikers should come early to check in at the registration desk near the main entrance. To register and learn more details on the Viall’s Crossing Project, visit the CATS website at champlainareatrails.com As a fundraiser for the Viall’s Crossing Project, the requested registration fee is $20 if registered by Sept. 8 and $25 after that date. Hikers under 18 are free.

If money’s an issue, call the CATS office at 518-962-2287 or email info@champlainareatrails.com and adjustments can be made. The registration fee can be exceeded and is appreciated. ■

drastically behind other schools in technological infrastructure and use, the facilities within and outside the school are either barely acceptable or completely inadequate, and we have already, and continue to, cut programs and teachers to the detriment of our kids’ education.

An Academic Intervention Services position, which helps kids meet the state’s math and English standards, no longer exists.

Currently there is one teacher for 7-12 history and one for K-12 Physical education. It’s hard to believe this is the situation we are in, one that is potentially damaging even with the best of teachers.

With low student numbers, the course offerings barely go beyond the basics. Electives are scarce, separate honors classes can not exist and it’s a challenge for students to create a transcript showing a rigorous high school career.

These are only a few of the problems that exist due to low enrollment and a starving budget. I applaud the staff and teachers for what they provide for our children under these circumstances.

I believe Elizabethtown-Lewis Central School has many of these same issues. Together, with a higher collective enrollment, carefully used state incentive and building aids, a strong unified board that believes in high expectations for our children and two towns that see themselves as more alike than different, we could be great.

We need to keep our pride at bay and start to see the merger as a potential opportunity for taking our schools and programming to new levels in order to provide an education our area kids deserve.

Your support needed for Land and Water Conservation Fund

To the Editor: On Sunday, Sept. 30, the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF), one of our country’s most successful outdoor conservation tools, is set to expire.

Since its bipartisan inception in 1964, the LWCF has contributed close to $4 billion for federal, state and local governments to sustain important lands, waters, conserve fish and wildlife habitat and to enhance public access to those very same lands and waters.

The LWCF is funded by a portion of royalties the federal government collects from offshore oil and gas production. It doesn’t cost tax payers a cent.

Since its inception, over 40,000 projects have been funded through the LWCF, including parks and campgrounds in nearly every county of every state in the country.

LWCF has contributed $336 million to our state in its 54-year history. LWCF funded projects in New York include:

• • • •

Rensselaer Plateau Working Forest Finger Lakes National Forest Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge Theodore Roosevelt Birthplace and Inaugural Sites • Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River • Wertheim National Wildlife Refuge Now it’s time to do our part for the LWCF and urge our representatives to permanently reauthorize and dedicate full funding before Sept. 30.

Please contact Rep. Elise Stefanik (RWillsboro) and make sure she understands the importance of the LWCF to outdoor recreation and local economies.

Ask her to ensure that the benefits of the LWCF are permanently authorized and handed down to the generations of hunters and anglers to come.

Taxpayers bear the brunt of costs for feeding immigrant women and children

To the Editor: Editor’s note: This letter is in response to Richard Barney’s letter, “Trump to blame for uninsured costs” which ran in the Sept.

8 edition of The Sun. This is an ongoing argument in response to Mr. R. Barney over liberal welfare benefits, who pays for them and just who is getting same, legally or illegally.

I contend the costs are borne by hard working taxpayers of our nation!

It’s also easy to go to your county website and find what percentage of your property tax dollars are going to these unfunded liberal federal and state mandated programs.

Please read below from the Daily Wire, also note thousands of undocumented children have been dumped into our country leaving the taxpayers once again to bear the brunt of the costs, and don’t think you can twist that around, we are paying even for legal support of the illegals, let that be done pro bono by the elite law firms inundating our system!

“Illegal immigrants are opting out of government welfare programs out of fear of Trump Administration crackdowns coming...

Due to a proposed Trump administration rule to deny legal status to illegals on welfare, both legal and illegal immigrants have been inundating health care providers with calls demanding they be dropped from federal assistance programs like (Women, Infants and Children Food Nutrition Service) WIC.

Guest column

Bringing broadband to the Adirondack Park region

By Jeffrey Nordhaus GUEST COLUMNIST

In 2015, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced the launch of the largest and most ambitious state-led broadband program in the nation.

Leveraging $500 million in state funding, the program’s goal is to ensure all New Yorkers have access to broadband at speeds of 100 mbps statewide and at least 25 mbps in the most rural and remote areas.

Earlier this year, Gov. Cuomo announced that commitments have been secured to ensure exactly that – broadband for all.

While the state’s broadband investments span the upstate regions, residents of the Adirondack Park region will see more investment than any other area from the New NY Broadband Program.

When the program was launched, only 12 percent of the Adirondack region had access to high-speed internet. But as a result of the program, it will see an eyepopping $239 million of new broadband investment – most of it in new, state-

of-the-art fiber optic cables which will transform the information infrastructure of the North Country.

Within the 12 counties of the Adirondack Park region, the broadband program is currently implementing: • 45 projects; • $152 million in state funding; • $87 million in private and federal matching funding; • $239 million public-private investment; • Over 3,000 miles of fiber deployment; and • Covering 69,405 locations For the many North Country residents who have never had broadband access, these connections are vital – and are achievements we should all be proud of.

For children doing their homework or applying to college, adults looking for jobs or medical care, or businesses looking to expand, broadband is no longer a luxury; it is a necessity.

Due to the need to construct networks over varied terrain, considerable

effort is required.

Many projects will come online in the coming weeks and months, and we appreciate the support of local communities as this work is completed.

The BPO has a team of project managers and outside auditors monitoring the completion of all projects to ensure required internet speeds are delivered.

Funding is only disbursed after work is satisfactorily completed.

Many constituents have asked about the use of satellite technology to cover about 1 percent of homes throughout the state.

Due to the region’s geography, deploying fiber is costly–and in some cases prohibitively costly–which is why wireless technology ended up being the only available solution for those areas.

Through a highly efficient “reverse auction” process, the state was able to incentivize partners to connect the most locations possible with fiber-based technologies, while also ensuring that no homes were left behind.

Networks are not static and we expect

the unprecedented foundation of fiber investment the program has built will lead to a virtuous cycle of more broadband investment, faster speeds and economic growth as a result of this successful initiative.

The BPO continuously provides a wide variety of information to the public about broadband buildout in their areas, including funding broken down by company and municipality, a map of broadband coverage in the state and a search function that allows constituents to find out which providers cover them and the download speeds those providers offer.

Information on the program can be found at nysbroadband.ny.gov. We also encourage constituents to email nysbroadband@esd.ny.gov with any questions or concerns they may have.

We are on the road to implementing full broadband coverage, working in partnership with providers, local officials and citizens throughout New York state to make this vision a reality. ■ — Jeffrey Nordhaus is the executive vice president of Innovation and Broadband at Empire State Development

Ti teen indicted in slaying Sawyer charged with killing his friend with a machete

By Tim Rowland STA FF W RITER

FORT EDWARD | A Washington County grand jury has indicted a Ticonderoga teen for killing his friend with a machete in July during a dispute over a girl.

The two-count indictment issued by a Washington County grand jury charges Adrian Sawyer, 16, with the intentional murder of 15-year-old Maverick Bowman on July 26, and with setting fire to the abandoned house where the incident occurred.

The fire fizzled before doing much damage.

Sawyer will be tried as an adult, and faces up to 50 years in prison. He will be arraigned Sept. 13, and remains in the Washington County Jail without bail.

Ticonderoga Police discovered Bowman’s body in the morning hours in a house owned by his grandmother after receiving a call from Sawyer’s family. Sawyer indicated to family members that Bowman had been hurt. Police said Bowman died of a wound to the throat.

The house, located in Putnam near the shore of Lake Champlain, had been a teen party spot, and Putnam town officials said last month it had been used by hot-rodders who left black rubber marks on the asphalt on either side of the drive.

Bowman was said to be a car and outdoor enthusiast, and was eulogized on social media by his friends. He would have been a junior at Ticonderoga High School this year.

He is being represented by Julie Garcia. ■

Underground Railroad tour highlights hidden history

Tours through Ausable, Peru continue through October

By Elizabeth Izzo STA FF W RITER

AUSABLE | It was just after 9:30 a.m. when a small group boarded a white bus behind Ausable Chasm, blue folders full of historic snapshots in hand, and puttered off past vast swaths of farmland.

The group toed the line between Clinton and Essex counties, strode through cemeteries, eyed historic churches with peeling paint and boarded-up windows. Though dark blue historic markers are scattered through the area, history left here is sometimes hidden. That’s where Don Papson steps in.

Papson is a researcher and curator by trade, and runs a small museum with his wife and a board of trustees dedicated to highlighting the North Country’s role in ushering slaves to freedom on the Underground Railroad.

In cemeteries, root cellars, and on land long left vacant after buildings there fell away, Papson brings visitors along on a tour of them all, telling stories of the people that fought passionately in a time when our country was deeply divided.

“Slavery divided even the churches,” Papson said, pointing to one side of a narrow street, where the Keeseville United Methodist Church stands, and the other side, where another church once was. “Dueling beliefs on opposite street corners.”

In 1836, a group of southern ministers said at a conference that it was “both right and necessary” to elect slave-owning bishops —meanwhile, in the north, many Methodists were slow to adopt a position on slavery.

The delay lead one Peru reverend, Andrew Witherspoon, to speak up.

Witherspoon argued that Methodists’ inaction in opposing slavery was an embarrassment to the church and effectively promoted evil. In response, his ordination was delayed — until he stood trial for allegedly sewing doubt and acting disrespectfully toward the church’s government.

Witherspoon was later accused of anonymously writing about his story in a local newspaper, and it was in Keeseville’s Methodist Church that he stood trial, observers overflowing out the church’s front doors.

The reverend was eloquent and cleared his name, Papson said, but continued on to defend his anti-slavery stance to the audience, and for the rest of his life would defend his beliefs.

Small hordes of Abolitionists and anti-slavers throughout the North Country — including Wendell Lansing, the publisher of the weekly newspaper “Essex County Republican,” Stephen Keese Smith, Samuel Keese, Gerrit Smith and John Brown — made progress bit by bit, survived beat-

ings by angry neighbors and continued forward until their message was heard.

“It’s not just about anti-slavery,” Papson told the group of tourists as they rounded a corner and sped through the old Village of Keeseville. “It’s about the people that lived in this village.”

The bus slowed as it crept through Evergreen Cemetery, shocks squeaking as the tires rolled over narrow dirt pathways. The driver took the group past rows of tombstones — some for children whose lives spanned just months, others marked simply with initials or not at all — and stopped before the headstone of Lansing, the area’s late newspaperman. On its face, a simple, subtle description to a man whose dedication was resolute: “Fearless, Faithful and True.”

Those three words encompass so many who have lived here, Papson said, their courage and strength not to be forgotten.

In front of the old Green Apple Inn, now an apartment building, Papson pointed to a New York State Historic

Marker proclaiming the site a stop on the Underground Railroad, and shared photos of an underground tunnel between the inn and a neighboring church where he believes slaves might have been hidden and sheltered.

The tour continued through Keeseville, Ausable, until reaching its final stop at a home on the outskirts of Peru.

What looked at first glance like a modest farmhouse had a secret tucked behind it — a root cellar, beneath a crumbling barn, with a story Papson believes is worth preserving.

Want to know what that story is? Papson and his crew at the North Star Underground Railroad Museum will offer two more tours this year: Sept. 15 and Oct. 6, all at 9 a.m.

Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for children 6-18 and free for children under 6 years old.

Summer’s abundance: Adirondack Harvest Festival returns Economics and the local food movement are part of afternoon roundtable dialogue

By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

WESTPORT| Adirondack Harvest Festival has reached a third year in celebration of local farm, farmers and the steady local food economy.

This year’s events start at 10 a.m. at Essex County Fairgrounds on Sept. 15 with the Fest to Fest hike, a five-mile loop that winds through gentle valleys in Westport.

Organizers in Westport have been thrilled with attendance grown by almost half last season and added more than a dozen vendors for this one.

Festival fare expects nearly 50 farmers, producers and artisans to share their produce, products, goods and farming know-how around the fairgrounds barns.

Demonstrations present how-to sessions throughout the day to Floral Hall and outdoor work areas, such as sheep shearing, making homemade mozzarella cheese, building a wood-fired oven and vegetable fermentation.

Most are practical and planned for people interested in expanding ways to use farm and home garden techniques, including beekeeping and a session called “Excuses for Zucchini,” with master gardener Trisha Best.

A favorite demonstration, spinning flax with longtime Westport farmer Mary Heald, returns this year along with cider press demonstration by Andy Wekin.

Lots of the work is made fun for Adirondack Harvest celebration.

Sheep shearing by hand with Roger Hastings will remove the coat of wool from Zsa Zsa Gabor, a male sheep.

“Caroline Thompson (owner of Zsa-Zsa Gabor — the sheep) is bringing her spinning wheel and will demonstrate how to spin wool from the wool Roger shears,” said Nancy Page, organizer of Harvest Fest.

The line of food trucks added two local producers, Lomeli’s Mexican Food and the Parker Family’s sugarhouse maple soft ice cream and milkshakes.

Page and her planning counterpart in Westport, Heidi Sweet, are pretty excited about strong connections built over the past two years at Harvest Festival gatherings.

Improved land conservation, farm education, food production and preservation, small business growth, local food move-

IF YOU GO

ment to schools and area institutions, and environmental protection are part of the ongoing dialogue.

“The festival provides the atmosphere for all to come together here,” Sweet said.

Connections and information exchange are key.

The afternoon Adirondack Harvest Roundtable Discussion 2018 looks to weigh the local food movement, its growth and impact on local economics and on people’s everyday lives.

Dr. Carly Summers is Agricultural Resource Educator at Cornell Cooperative Extension and has outlined a start for the discussion, moderated by North Country Public Radio host David Sommerstein.

Questions Summers hopes to raise start with fresh food access, farm growth and agricultural economics.

Ideas people might bring to the table, which is open to all area farmers, residents and visitors, include: How do you feel about using locally grown food in schools or area institutions (colleges or hospitals)? Have you seen local agriculture impact your town’s economy in the past few years? What impacts affect your family? How important is farming to your quality of life?

A “sounding board” display in Floral Hall will be posted all day, open for written comments and input.

“The display,” Summers said, “will be focused on the diversity and impact of local agriculture, and discussion will be geared toward both farmers and community.”

Adirondack Harvest is faced forward. The collective hopes to learn what people want the local food supply to look like in 10 years.

The conversation also hopes to ask farmers where they see themselves in 10 years. ■

» Garden Cont. from pg. 1

By Kim Dedam STA FF W RITER

WESTPORT | An exceptional allegiance claimed a space for common beauty here.

Several years ago, a row of gnarled and leaning cedars were cut down from their stand in front of the Westport Post Office.

They had grown up against the very large glass windows.

The reveal did let the sun pour into the post office lobby, opening a late fall and winter view across Lake Champlain.

But removal left narrow band of dirt, an unseemly barren spot beneath the green glass Post Office facade, circa 1965.

In the first bare patch of summer, about four or five years ago, Postmaster Richard Morgan planted some sunflower seeds.

The tall flowers drew immediate and welcome attention, according to many residents.

Daily comings and goings make the Post Office corner at Harris Lane and Orchard Terrance an intersection of conversation.

Ideas were exchanged.

And the next year, the garden gloves came out.

First Alison Hain put some plants in the ground and worked on an initial layout for a flower and greens display with Westport arborist Ted Taylor.

With hands from next-door neighbors Bonnie and Al Haberle, soil turned and improved with fresh compost and some perennials were moved from their back yard.

“I just took stuff from my garden,” Bonnie said, pointing to the left side of the post office’s front door.

“This is mostly shade.”

The other side is brightly lit, drenched daily in hours of sunlight, so the plants had to be suitable.

Without a budget or any funding at first,

Westport Post Office Garden trio, from left, Bonnie Haberle, Pat Troyan and Meighan McWilliam, share the tale of an empty patch of dirt that evolved into a source of beauty and pride in town. flowers and bulbs arrived in a medley from yards nearby: dozens of daffodils, hosta from another neighbor’s edging, a few lilies, some ferns and greens for the shade.

Like a conductor with a trowel, Bonnie dug and moved them around, arranging the garden plants for best light, height and location.

“My husband says he wishes our plants were all on wheels,” she said of garden trials.

Weeds came out. The old cedar stumps sunk a little under mulch, forming level platforms for pots.

Through the past few years, the blooms took hold. An iron bench was placed on the sunny side, below the big windows. The shaded section contains the flag pole.

“Everyone contributed plants and time,” says Meighan McWilliam, whose volunteer efforts with Beautiful Westport helped garner funding.

“There were angels, so many people stepped forward and worked to get funding,” Pat Troyan said.

As a little money came in, the serendiptious group of volunteer helpers set up a budget and their garden took root.

A common sense of accomplishment grew from a hodge-podge of shared plantings.

The garden gained wavy, scalloped edges and many perennials. Towering stems of sunflowers remain a fixture on the sunny side of the lot. There was also a load of good dirt;

several cone-shaped firs; some slow-growing evergreen shrubs. The delicate petals of bleeding hearts dangle in the front. Bluebells come after daffodils in spring.

The layout evolved with Bonnie’s green thumb and (she says) husband Al’s back.

“If I start with a plan, I sort of diverge.

We put them where they fit. It’s a labor of love,” Bonnie said.

She sees the composition as a tribute to community in Westport.

Standing beside the garden one hot morning, area residents found time amid the comings and goings to compliment the blooms.

“We wanted to keep this local,” Bonnie says of plantings that came from all around town.

“It’s really about community. I can tell you the garden has brought many of us closer together, people visit for coffee now and talk where they might not have known each other a few years ago.”

To keep the soil watered this hot summer, the gardeners said they asked for volunteers.

“We called it the Watering Committee,” Pat smiled.

Nearly a dozen people signed up wielding as many different kinds of watering cans.

With autumn approaching, the gardeners looked wistful, wondering how this year’s new growth would fare under a few feet of snow.

Somebody in town recently took a moment to illustrate a thank-you note and left it, unsigned, at the post office.

“Where is it?” Bonnie asked.

She hadn’t seen it yet.

And on a counter inside it says: “Upon walking into the post office the blow of receiving a handful of bills is softened by our beautiful flower garden at the entrance.

Ladies thank you for making Westport as children would say: Beautifuller!”

of grant funds in January, state officials and providers have participated in a pair of forums in North Creek and Willsboro.

Lawmakers indicated they’d be open to a third session, including Lewis Supervisor Jim Monty, who was disappointed at the lack of a Q&A at a public hearing last month in Elizabethtown.

“If this is your idea of open and transparent government,” wrote Monty in an email to the BPO last week, “I am ashamed to be a part of this.”

The first two phases of the program will be completed by the end of the year, while recipients of the third and final round of funding have until the end of 2019.

“The ball’s in your court,” Wolff told lawmakers. “You at the town level have to manage the rollout. This is a finite time. We’re talking into 2019. After that, then all bets are off.”

LAWMAKERS REACT

Essex County Board of Supervisors Vice Chairman Shaun Gillilland said he welcomed

Wolff ’s suggestions on how to “repair and improve” the information that is available to local officials about coverage issues.

“I came away with a clearer understanding of the nature of the problem where we sit today,” he said. “Our homework on this is to quickly figure out the scope of the problem.

Once we get knowledge of the problem, we will know how tackle it.”

But Gillilland, who also serves as Willsboro supervisor, continues to harbor concerns over the structure of communication with the BPO, providers and local government once buildouts have been completed, as well as how to regulate underperforming providers and the specific points of contact for complaints.

“I know it’s going to fall down to local governments to be able to regulate what’s going on in the town,” said Gillilland, who also expressed concerns that those subscribed to failing legacy systems will not get upgraded.

As part of the program, providers must

SPECTRUM QUESTION Another dangling question when it comes to filling highspeed internet gaps in the Adirondacks is the extent of Charter’s involvement.

As part of Charter’s takeover of Time Warner in 2016, the provider was required by the state Public Service Commission (PSC) to extend service to 145,000 underserved locations statewide.

Charter, which conducts business as Spectrum in New York state, and the state Broadband Program Office have acknowledged some of the 145,000 locations are in the North Country.

But they’ve long contended that information is private, frustrating local officials who want clarification on which locations in their towns stand to be served.

Adding further ambiguity, the PSC claims Charter hasn’t reached the build-out goals and commenced eviction proceedings in July, leaving officials wondering how the change will affect their communities.

“We need an answer of what is going to happen if they force Spectrum out of Essex County,” said Lewis Supervisor Jim Monty, who estimated a departure would result in 60 percent of his constituents losing service.

Essex County Board of Supervisors Vice Chairman Shaun Gillilland called the ongoing flap a “massive unknown.”

“If it goes south, it’s going to bring this whole state project with it,” Gillilland told The Sun. Charter, which has disputed the PSC’s claims, has until Oct. 9 to submit an exit plan to the state regulatory agency.

Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava says approximately 90 locations in his community stand to be served by the provider.

“Trying to obtain the information has been very difficult, if not impossible,” said Scozzafava, who contends he has been stonewalled by the PSC, Spectrum and the governor’s office when he’s asked for clarity.

But reversing years of claims by Charter and the BPO stating details on build-out efforts are private, AdkAction Broadband Committee Chairman David Wolff told lawmakers towns have the right to ask for an understanding of the network within their franchise areas, and can obtain that information if they sign a non-disclosure agreement.

“Franklin County has done this at the county level,” Wolff said.

“They have gone and signed a non-disclosure with Spectrum.”

Scozzafava called for Spectrum to send a representative to a county board meeting.

“That would be a huge first step,” he said. ■

Th irty percent of New Yorkers did not have high-speed broadband in 2015, according to the BPO. Keene Supervisor Joe Pete Wilson said he can’t overstate how important the service is to rural communities, and how critical the state investment is.

That’s why lawmakers are so passionate, he said.

“In our rural towns, not having it — or having limited access to broadband — hurts our economy and hurts our education system,” Wilson said. “I want broadband and am supportive of this program.”

Gillilland, too, acknowledged the state’s commitment.

But the governor has made a promise to his constituents, he said, citing the pomp and circumstance of the program announcement in Lake Placid in 2015.

“It’s between the governor’s office and individual households,” Gillilland said. “It’s very personal. It was promised, and if it doesn’t happen, people are going to be very angry.”

The BPO are aware of Wolff ’s presentation, and said they work closely with a number of community organizations and local governments.

“Their insight and feedback has been valuable as we build out broadband across the region, which is receiving over $150 million in public investment that will provide access to more than 47,000 homes,” said Adam Kilduff, an agency spokesman. “The (BPO) is committed to providing access to highspeed internet to all New Yorkers.”

Residents who want to offer feedback on BPO-funded projects can contact the BPO directly at nysbroadband@esd.ny.gov. ■

Wolff urged the Essex County Board of Supervisors to appoint a designee at the county level who can help local officials navigate bureaucratic hurdles in Albany.

Doing so, he said, may be more effective than individual lawmakers contacting the BPO with their concerns.

The program has steered $154 million in subsidies to boost high-speed internet in rural North Country communities — the most of any region in the state.

But local officials have long fumed over what they perceive to be a lack of transparency from the BPO, leaving them adrift as they attempt to pin down specific details on build-out projects in their communities.

Lawmakers fret that the BPO has leaned too heavily on U.S. Census maps to award grants and that locations that may fall through the cracks, a viewpoint complicated by the state’s eviction of Charter from the state earlier this summer.

Wolff encouraged lawmakers to pinpoint areas in their communities that may be left unserved once the program concludes at the end of next year.

“We need to identify those households; we need quantify and figure out how big the problem is, and what monies will be required to actually solve and connect those people,” Wolff said. “Until we connect those folk, the governor’s claim of 100 percent coverage is not going to be accurate.”

He asked lawmakers to study the state-crafted maps detailing grant coverage areas at nysbroadband.ny.gov/resources/residential-broadband.

Lawmakers appeared to approve of a Wolffcreated map that shows grant awards color-coded by provider in each town — not by the amount of grant awards provided or speed promised.

Steven Roger Cross

Jacqueline Quayle

ELIZABETHTOWN | Steven Roger Cross died at his home in Elizabethtown on Sunday, Aug. 5 after a brief illness.

He was born in Hackensack, New Jersey on May 8, 1949, the son of Gordon Keith and Marguerite Grossman Cross.

Until his marriage, he lived in Oradell, New Jersey and graduated from Riverdell High School. He received a Master of Science degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), a Juris Doctor degree from Florida State University and a Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary.

He worked as an attorney in Englewood, Florida for many years prior to moving back to New Jersey. In 2008, he and Jan returned to her family home in Elizabethtown and spent winters in Spring Hill, Florida.

In June of 1973, he married Janet MacDougal in Elizabethtown. To them, were born three children: Elizabeth Suzanne (Mrs. Jeffrey Kozack) of Hillsborough, New Jersey; Lauren Christine (Mrs. Peter Worland) of LaJolla, California; and Keith Robert (Erin) of Portsmouth, Rhode Island.

They also have five grandchildren: Liam Alexander Frederick and Anya Sophia Worland, Caleb Allister and Alexander Jacob Kozack, and Theodore James Cross. All of whom survive him.

Steve loved sports. From childhood, he played baseball and basketball, played on the tennis team in high school as well as collegiate tennis and squash at MIT and participated in softball, golf, tennis and later, pickelball as an adult. He loved bicycle riding and this past winter, averaged riding 20 miles per day. He and Jan loved hiking and canoing in the Adirondacks as well as taking long walks.

Rarely did he miss a sports event in which any of his children participated as they were growing up and he coached baseball and basketball teams on which Keith played.

In addition to his wife and children, he is survived by a brother, Richard Keith Cross and his wife, Christa, of Bethesda, Maryland and their daughters Catherine (Roberto LaPaz) and Anna (Jeriz Te) and their families as well as cousins Edwin John and Nancy Cross, Joan Geyer, Barbara Roberts, David, James and Russell Landmann.

Visiting hours were from 10 to 11 a.m. Thursday Aug. 9 followed by a service of celebration of his life at the United Church of Christ in Elizabethtown where he was an active member.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Elizabethtown-Lewis Ambulance Squad or the American Cancer Society for brain cancer research.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Heald Funeral Home, 7521 Court St., Elizabethtown.

WESTPORT | Longtime resident of Kendal, Jacqueline Quayle, age 95, died Aug. 31, 2018. She was born in Kings Mountain, North Carolina and attended Lenoir Rhyne College in Hickory, North Carolina.

She married Oliver A. Quayle III in 1942 in Washington, D.C. and they lived in Bronxville before retiring to Hanover, New Hampshire in 1973. Mrs. Quayle was predeceased by her husband of 31 years in 1974.

While living in Hanover, Mrs. Quayle volunteered for many local organizations. She devoted considerable volunteer time to the Dartmouth-Hitchcock hospital, to the Friends of Hopkins Center and the Hood Museum and the Montshire Museum.

She held a special love for the family home in Westport where she often volunteered to help at the Depot Theater.

She was a lifelong loyal supporter of Camp Dudley where she enjoyed Sunday chapel, hymn sings and reunion.

A lover of the outdoors, she enjoyed hiking, mountain climbing, swimming, tennis and skiing.

Family and friends were most important to Jackie, and her greatest joy came from time spent with those closest to her. A kind and caring wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Jackie always shared her love and support without reservation.

Survivors include two sons, Oliver A. Quayle IV and his wife Sara, of Williston, Vermont and Randall L. Quayle and his wife Sibyl, of Lake Placid. The joy of her life were her four grandchildren: Laura, Joanna, Simon and Phoebe and most recently her three great-grandchildren: Georgia, Athena and Teddy. Mrs. Quayle also had a special loving relationship with her god-daughter, Shami Jones McCormick.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the scholarship programs at either Camp Dudley, Westport or Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire.

Funeral arrangements are under the direction of the RandWilson Funeral Home. ■

Isabel Savel ELIZABETHTOWN | Isabel Savel was born February 19, 1937 in New York City. She was raised in Englewood, New Jersey and graduated from Englewood High School. Her father’s family came from Czechoslovakia and her mother’s family came from Romania.

She graduated from New York University with an A.B. degree on the same day that her husband graduated from New York University College of Medicine.

They had met at a school dance and they stayed together for over 62 years. She studied Jewish studies at the Hebrew Union College in New York City and received a master’s degree in early childhood education at Southern Connecticut State College in New Haven.

She studied knitting with Elizabeth Zimmerman and Chinese cooking with Grace Chu at the China Institute in New York. She taught elementary education first in Eastport and then in Burlington, Vermont.

She and her husband have two sons, Dr. Richard Savel, director of critical care services at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn and Dr. Thomas Savel, director of informatics research at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia.

She and her husband have lived in the North Country since 1967, with residences in Westport and Elizabethtown since 1971. After her children started school, she began working in her husband’s medical practice as administrator and bookkeeper and worked regularly until her final illness. She was a member of the American Legion Auxiliary in Elizabethtown and enjoyed marching in the Memorial Day Parade while her husband carried the American flag.

Besides devotion to her family, she was a lover of classical music, playing both the piano and the violin. Her piano playing can be heard on YouTube as the piano accompaniment to her husband’s videos about the Holocaust. She was a superb knitter and all her finished pieces came with a lifetime repair guarantee. The last pieces she finished were woolen mittens for her son and a knitted woolen necktie for her husband.

Her writing skills were superb, and her Holocaust short stories have been published by her sons and her husband and are available on Amazon. She leaves behind her husband, two children, Richard and Tom and grandchildren, Asher Savel and Benjamin Savel.

Her final illness resulted from long-term damage she suffered from rheumatic fever in childhood. She was interred in the Riverside Cemetery with a graveside religious service.

The family wishes to thank Dr. Moisan and the staff at the Elizabethtown Community Hospital for their excellent care during her final illness. Donations in her memory should be sent to the Savel Education Fund at the Elizabethtown Community Hospital.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Heald Funeral Home, 7521 Court St., Elizabethtown. To light a memorial candle or leave an online condolence, visit healdfuneralhomeinc.com ■

GOP hopefuls stump in North Country Julie Killian, Keith Wofford introduce themselves to voters

By Pete DeMola EDITOR

LONG LAKE | Republican hopefuls for state office are making the rounds in the North Country.

Julie Killian, GOP gubernatorial candidate Marc Molinaro’s running mate, stumped in Plattsburgh, meeting with local candidates and business officials before venturing deep into the central Adirondacks with stops in Indian Lake and Long Lake, where she delivered comments at the Adirondack Hotel.

A leading concern from voters on the ground is spotty broadband and cellular service, Killian told The Sun after the event.

“First and foremost, it’s a safety issue,” said Killian, a former deputy mayor and city councilor in Rye, Westchester County.

“And as far as economic development, it’s hard to get people to come when there’s no operating cell service or internet services.”

Killian said local officials have cited a rocky relationship with the state office overseeing the statewide broadband build-out.

“They’re not working with local communities, and that’s a big problem,” Killian said.

The candidate delivered a message of reducing taxes, scrapping the state’s economic development programs — “We’re sending out hundreds of millions of dollars to political cronies,” she said — and combating the state’s brain drain of young people.

Killian, a mother of five, said many college graduates can’t return to the state owing to high property taxes, and that the average age in the

state is increasingly more reflective of Florida.

“Affordability is one of the No. 1 issues Marc and I continue to work on,” Killian said.

Killian last appeared on the ballot in April for a special election for a downstate state Senate race, where she was defeated by the Democratic candidate.

Since that contest, in which she said she would not repeal the SAFE Act and supported increased gun control measures, Killian has reversed course.

Molinaro, she said, vowed to repeal the controversial gun control legislation.

“I signed onto that when I signed on to run with him,” Killian said.

Molinaro and Killian will also appear on the Conservative and Reform party lines in November.

“It’s stunningly beautiful,” said Killian of the Adirondacks. “Win or lose, I’m coming back.

Killian opponent Lieutenant Kathy Hochul last visited the region in July when she hosted the Adirondack Challenge in North Creek, the annual event designed to bolster local tourism. Gov. Andrew Cuomo visited Saranac Lake last month to announce an economic development initiative.

Also vying for the executive mansion is Green Party candidate Howie Hawkins, Libertarian Larry Sharpe and independent candidate Stephanie Miner.

Cuomo will face off against Cynthia Nixon in the Democratic primary on Thursday.

Nixon’s running mate is Jumaane Williams, a New York City councilman.

AG CANDIDATE

Keith Wofford, Republican and Conservative Party candidate for attorney general, touched down in Plattsburgh on Friday.

He isn’t concerned that all of the oxygen may be sucked out of the general election

contest as four Democratic candidates head towards the conclusion of their hard-fought primary contest on Sept. 13.

“Voters and taxpayers and business people are focused on a real alternative,” Wofford told The Sun. “They want experience paired with independence.”

Wofford currently works as co-managing partner of Ropes & Gray, New York City law firm.

He touted his humble origins, born and raised in what he described as a “tough working class neighborhood” in Buffalo, where his father worked at a Chevy plant.

Wofford said decades of work in the private sector has prepared him for the state’s top law enforcement job because he’s used to working for tough clients who expect results.

The state, he said, is at a crossroads. Like the Democratic field, he assailed the state’s

Save more every day.

culture of corruption and promised to reign bad actors into control.

And while some national policies may be bad for New Yorkers, Wofford indicated he would ease up on using the office as a bulwark against the Trump administration, where Attorney General Barbara Underwood and her predecessor, Eric Schneiderman, have filed a flurry of legal challenges against the federal government on everything from rollbacks of car emissions to formal lawsuits against the administration’s family separation policy at the southern border.

The office’s main job is to “support and protect the taxpayers of this state,” Wofford said — not as cudgel to attack the federal government on areas of political disagreement.

“It’s a lawsuit a week or a lawsuit a day in an election year,” Wofford said. “I find it difficult to believe every case is a beneficial use of time and taxpayer resources.” ■

Saranac lines dominate in win over Red Storm

By Keith Lodbell SPORTS EDITOR

SARANAC | In the box score, it was the Luke Maye and Jake Nolan show.

And while the duo accounted for 360 of their teams 439 yards of total offense in their 44-0 win over Saranac Lake Sept. 8, they would be the first to say they were not alone in the win.

“We got a lot of good plays from everyone,” said Nolan, who ran for 36 yards and a score while receiving for 202 yards and a hauling in a pair of touchdown catches.

“We have been getting better in every practice and this was a great team win,” added Maye, who had 92 yards rushing with two touchdowns while throwing for 232 yards and two more scores.

“We have some big boys up front, our offensive and defensive lines can be monsters,” said Saranac head coach Dylan Everleth. “We want to outwork and out-muscle the opponent, and I felt we did a good job on that today.”

The team concept was shown when the Chiefs found themselves with a second-and-long play on their own one yard line. Maye threw a screen pass to Nolan, who broke one tackle and then

used a Isaac Garman block to spring free for a 99 yard touchdown reception.

“It was just a regular screen play, but Isaac made a great play on his assignment and that is what opened the field up,” Nolan said.

“That was a play where all 11 on the field did their job and were rewarded,” Everleth said.

“All of us have been in the weight room all summer and the communication with this line has been awesome,” said lineman Casey Breyette. “We are all talking to each other.”

James Conway capped scoring with a 50 yard touchdown run to finish with 68 rush yards, while Garett Aldolfo hit a 39-yard field goal as time expired in the first half.

Saranac (2-0) will now travel to Beekmantown (2-0) Sept. 15 for a Saturday afternoon showdown.

CLINTONVILLE | Lestyn Williams scored with less than four minutes gone by in the first and less that four minutes remaining in the fourth as the Plattsburgh High Hornets scored a 14-6 win over the AuSable Valley Patriots Sept. 7.

“I would have to give the credit to my linemen,” Williams said after the game. “They opened the holes for me to get the scores We learned our lesson and now we have to focus.”

Williams finished with his two touchdowns and 156 rushing yards, over half of his team’s 239 total offensive yardage.

The Patriots were able to contain the Hornets offense through much of the night, turning a Luis Perez interception into points early in the third quarter as the Patriot hauled in a pass from Evan Snow for a 63-year score.

“Ross Douglas gave us fits the whole game,” said PHS coach Patrick Keleher after the game. “He was a pretty tough defensive lineman and found his way into the backfield a lot. I tip my hat to Ed (McCallister) and the Patriots.”

“These kids did not quit and that is something we focus on is the one thing we can control is how hard we work,” McCallister said. “On the scoring play, I just told Evan to drop back and take a shot. It worked out.”

After the Patriots touchdown and missed

extra point, the score remained 7-6 until the fourth quarter, with the teams exchanging possession throughout.

AuSable got the ball midway through the fourth quarter and, after converting a first down, Snow was sacked by Hornet Alex Brown, who the applied pressure on an incompletion before blocking a fourth down punt which found its way into the arms of Zachary Bieber.

“I was able to get through because of a slip and get a good chance at the quarterback,” Brown said. “On the punt, the blocker was on me until the very last second but I was able to get my hand up and get the block.”

“We were on a punt safe so I was in coverage, but I saw the punt get blocked and was able to get possession,” said Bieber. The Hornet also recorded an interception on the final defensive play of the game to seal the win.

“We took control of the game at that point,” Keleher said. “I thought the defense did a decent job all night and we were pretty good against the run. The offense is where we struggled, but I think the momentum from the sack and the blocked punt carried us to the score.”

Snow finished with 120 passing yards, with 90 of those yards going to Perez.

The Hornets, who start a season 2-0 for the first time since 2002, will now face Peru (2-0) at home Friday, Sept. 14.

“We got a monkey off our back beating them last year in the regular season and then were part of a great sectional title game,” Keleher said. “I know we will be excited and ready for this game.”

The Patriots (0-2) will travel to Saranac Lake to take on the Red Storm (0-2) Sept. 15.

“You want to win every game, but these next two a the big games for us because they decide sectional seeding in Class C,” McCallister said. ■

Peru wins Saranac volleyball tourney title

By Keith Lobdell SPORTS EDITOR

SARANAC | All nine CVAC volleyball teams came together on the gym floors at Saranac Central School last Saturday, joined by a trio of Section X teams for the annual Saranac Volleyball Fall Tournament.

In the end, the Peru Indians won their second tournament title in three years with a 25-16 championship one-set win over Plattsburgh High.

“I think the girls have made a lot of progress over this week,” said Indians head coach Mary Anne Lake. “The chemistry of this team is really unique. I have not seen a team like this who cares for each other and pushes as much as they do.”

“I really try to focus on my girls,” said Indian setter Olivia Bousquet. “I couldn’t be a better player without them and we really support each other.”

Bousquet said the team is working on coming together and bearing down when things get difficult on the mental side of the game.

“We are really good at overcoming physical errors, but we are still working together to overcome the mental side,” she said.

For Plattsburgh High, coach Cindy McMahon has been pleased with the way the season has started.

“They have come a long way and have been working hard and communicating on the court,” she said. “I could not be more proud of the way our team played in this tournament, and our goal for the season is to get to the point where we are consistently competitive with a Peru.”

“We have worked extremely hard and I feel we deserve every point that we score,” said Hornet Bridget Melhorn. “We just have to focus on communication and our positivity.”

Defending CVAC champion and host Saranac just missed out on the finals, but have their focus set on defending the league title this season.

“This tournament is a real chance to see what we need from our players,” said coach Mary LaDuke. “There are some things I did not see in the first two games I was able to see in the tournament. I feel we are a team that will grow up through each game we play.” ““We lost a lot but there are players who are definitely stepping up,” said Maddie Hoeth.

Lake Placid’s Evelynn Sharp passes a ball as Saranac Lake’s Emma Kielmeier follows for a potential block as the Blue Bombers and Chiefs played each other at the Saranac tournament Sept. 8.

Photo by Keith Lobdell “Defensively we are working on covering the angles and working on the areas we can improve.”

Saranac Lake will also be defending a sectional title, and coach Mike Navarra said the tournament experience was good for his team.

“It’s a chance to get out there and increase their confidence on the court and knowledge of the game,” Navarra said. “We have been showing signs of improvement over the first week, so we will see where we can go.”

In Beekmantown, setter Alexys Hawks

said communication with her teammates has been the key to their start to the season.

“We have meshed together and have learned to adjust to each other,” she said.

Lake Placid and AuSable Valley have entered the new season with new coaches at the helm, as Sandy Huber took over for long-time coach Donna Moody in Lake Placid and Peggy McCallister takes over in AuSable Valley, assisted by former Patriots Miranda and Mirissa O’Neal. ■
