Perfect it’s all about livestock! I am eminently qualified.
I meet with Susan and much to my disappointment there’s no official form to fill in. There is no stipend. Then I find out that Susan is a fence Viewer so I wonder if she’s holding out on me to protect her position?
The Fence Viewers are appointed by the towns selectmen, therefore a strategy of serious sucking up is in order. The appointment is at the end of April. I must start my campaign.
