Notes: 

TMT: I've fixed the dates based on an assumed city election in November 1930; "less than six months" after which Flem is appointed superintendent.

Summary: 

Even in the absence of proof, the townspeople gossip about Mrs. Flem Snopes and Major Hoxey and speculate that Flem's appointment as superintendent accounts for "his rise in Hoxey's administration" (151).
