A grateful mayor sends a message

On his Facebook page, Walhalla Mayor Danny Edwards wrote:  “Tonight I want to thank the Walhalla Police Department and the Oconee County Sheriff’s Department for keeping Walhalla safe during tonight’s protest.  Excellent job!  This could have turned into a violent situation.  Please remember to pray for these folks as tomorrow could be difficult.  I’m also asking for prayers for our leaders as we try to work for a solution to keep peace in our city.  As some of you know, many of the protesters are not from Walhalla.  Prayers please!”
