STANFORD - Stanford Postmaster John Dampier went to the courthouse one morning recently to get a distinguishing license plate and left with the thanks of an anonymous customer.
After waiting in line at the county clerk's office to get an Iraq war veteran license plate, the reserve Navy SeaBee found out he couldn't use his debit card to pay the $14 fee, and left the courthouse in search of an ATM.
When he returned, he found that a man from Moreland had overheard the conversation and thought it wasn't right for a veteran to have to pay extra, so the man paid the $14 fee himself.
The clerks could not identify the generous citizen, so Dampier contacted The Interior-Journal to ensure the generous act would not go unthanked.
