Paris, Tenn.–Henry County Mayor John Penn Ridgeway was up early this morning to help clear the ice of the walkways and stairs at the Henry County Courthouse. County Clerk Donna Craig posted a photo of Ridgeway on Facebook with the note: “Have to brag on our new Mayor for getting up and out so early this morning so the employees and customers can get inside safe without falling. Thank you.” Ridgeway was assisted by Deputy Ricky Wade and trustees from the jail. The courthouse was closed yesterday due to the ice storm. (Donna Craig photo).
