[Ohio-talk] Contacts for saving the Cincinnati Library for theBlind

[Dr. Smith]

I have been out of town for a few days but I appreciate your leadership here 
Deborah and I will do whatever I can to make this campaign successful.

Several of the folks on the Senate Finance committee are close friends of 
mine so they wil hear from me soon.

I too was led to believe that this was a done deal but I too am prepared to 
go to battle and will appreciate all the support we can get now.

This is a call to action for all of us so let's do our part!
