By GREGG LAWSON STONE HARBOR - This borough's only gasoline service station will remain open "at least until Sept. 15," according to proprietor Don Sheneman.

"Closing the station is a total disservice to the I people and institutions of Stone Harbor."

Exxon sales representative, asking him to keep the station open through the summer.

received any calls or letters protesting the closing, area representative Art Dudley replied, "no. Nothing. "Exxon did make him the offer." Dudley said. "It's been his decision, not ours, all along."
