Thank you to all the people of Southampton who put aside time in their busy day to vote on Election Day. I am so grateful to have been elected to serve as your town justice.
Please join me in thanking those who make Election Day possible: our veterans. Many hamlets will be celebrating Veterans Day this Thursday. Please attend one of the ceremonies; some of our World War II veterans may not be with us to see your smiling face in the crowd next year. Come and let our veterans know their service is appreciated and join together as we all give thanks for the freedom we enjoy every day.
Wave your flag proudly and cheer loudly. Thank you to all our veterans.
Hon. Barbara Wilson
Southampton Town Justice

As a Sag Harbor native in my late 30s, I’ve seen the East End fully transform into the Hamptons — and it’s not a pretty picture. A village resident, I’m constantly reminded of how I don’t make enough money to...
Regarding your editorial, “Dangerous Liberty” [June 26]: We are of like minds on some issues — government overreach, the founding fathers’ understanding of the dangers of democratic process and of the dichotomy created by a two-party system. It seems important...
I am a volunteer at Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation, and I see the valuable work they do. The Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, open-admission, no-kill shelter that relies on the generosity of donors to care for the...
