Contributed commentary from retired Judge John H. Peay:

It is my pleasure to endorse Chancellor Laurence McMillan Jr. for re-election as chancellor of the Chancery Court for Montgomery and Robertson Counties.

I have known Chancellor McMillan since he was a young boy. I have watched him grow and become a fine attorney and judge, having been on the bench now for 18 years. He has the skills, temperament and experience fir this important position.

I encourage you to vote for and re-elect Chancellor McMillan on Aug. 4!

John Peay
