Vintage Burbury Trench coat, working lawn mower and more for sale
by Jacqueline Walker 22 May '17

22 May '17

I am looking to let go of my vintage Burbury trench coat, a mink that works for someone that is 110 pounds (All of my clothes are small). Each would run about 200 dollars. I also have a Toro working self propelled mower that I'm selling for 190 (I went electric)...the blades may need sharpened but I doubt it as it went unused last year. I have a Samantha American doll that I'm letting go for 80 dollars and two large bags of girl baby clothes (no tears, stains or rips) that range from infant to 3 years old. I would let it go at a fair price for everything and it would be a huge savings even if you went to goodwill or consignment shops. My phone number is 412-789-8089, send me a text if interested in any of the above items. Many quality home decor items that my mother dropped off that I just don't have the use or space for....feel free to come by and check them out :) Not enough for a large sale....so I thought this avenue might help.

Stolen welcome neighbor and Black Lives Matter yard signs
by Erin Marie Williams 22 May '17

22 May '17

Good morning neighbors, We woke up Sunday morning to find that all of the welcome neighbor signs (and our Black Lives Matter sign) had been taken from the yards on our block (the 5900 block of Hampton St) and the adjacent block of Euclid. I let the police know and they've assigned the theft incident #93189. If your signs were taken as well the officers have asked that you call and report it using this incident number. In light of this, I'll be hosting another sign drive soon. Please stay tuned if you're interested!

1991 FORD 5.0L MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE. One owner. ~135,000 miles. Well maintained. Automatic transmission. Cherry Red. Condition is Fair. This was a great car but I need the garage space and I've decided I don't have the time for a full restoration.

It will take some work like a new top, new hydraulic cylinder, etc.. I can go into detail on its history and needs for anyone interested. Should be eligible for classic license plates as >25 years old. $950 OBO. Please contact Lawrence Wood at 401-256-7895 (cell) or LWood2(a)cvs.com
