    ROCHESTER - No permits to carry revolvers will be issued in Fulton County, from this time forward, Judge R.R. Carr and Sheriff Ora Clark have decreed. Under a law which was passed by the 1929 legislature to secure a permit to carry a revolver, it must be necessary for the judge of the circuit court and the sheriff to approve the application. Both officials state that they do not think it necessary for any citizen of the county to carry revolvers.
