Cathy, the Telegraph Herald outta Dubuque??? Will check w/friends & neighbors to see if someone's got a copy. Yup, located 40 miles from Dubuque, but that's our main news source out here in NW IL. There's gotta be a copy laying around SOMEWHERE!!!

RATS!!! Fitz.. I forgot to write down YOUR thread..

One copy of the 01-29-08 Telegraph Herald located!!! When the roads are clear, will drive up over the border into WI & retrieve it. In the meantime, will look for one closer to home. The gal is a Mom of an Army Soldier, WIA, 11-04.

I'll pay for shipping if she wants to mail it. There is no need for you to make a special trip, butr if you are going that way for another reason I appreciate your picking it up.
