United States, Georgia, Hall County, Gainesville, 34.29788, -83.824071966/05Election whimsy, May 1966. Photograph taken in May 1966 of an "Election Bet Payoff," which gave Marvin Wood a ride in the wheelbarrow at the New Holland Mill. Al Ledford lost a bet on the sheriff's race when he said Ed England would be elected. England appreciated the confidence and support of Ledford and came to stroll along. Cal Wilson, the elected sheriff, provided two siren-blowing sheriff cars to give the proper background decorum.Caption: "Hall County Library Photo Collection (0666) Gainesville, Georgia."Digitized by: Digital Techniques, Inc.Electronic version made available through a federal Library Services and Technology Act Grant and Georgia Public Library Services.image/jpeghttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/Forms part of: Hall County, Georgia historical photograph collection.Local elections--Georgia--GainesvilleLocal officials and employees--Georgia--GainesvilleWit and humorWood, MarvinLedford, AlEngland, EdWilson, CalElection whimsyStillImage
