Claxton, for years, covered crime for the daily paper.
Det. Kevin Rowell of the Greenfield Police Department, a near-daily source for Claxton (G.P.D., not Rowell), once told me how much he enjoyed Claxton's writing style. I did, too, immensely.
If I recall correctly, I think Claxton left his Recorder job some years back for the greener pastures of Homeland Security, a smart career move, considering the future of small-town presses. But he's much missed in Franklin County.
Freleng could have learned a lot from someone as talented and experienced as Claxton.
