In my previous Shire, I had much the same situation.  I had about eight
deputies--but only three that lived in the Shire.  Two moved away, one
dropped out, and now that I've moved, my Shire will quickly be facing
suspension because they don'thave a herald.

I wish that training my replacement could have been my primary job, but as
the deputies that were the most interested in getting trained lived one on
the other end of my principality and one in another kingdom, neither were
really in a position to take over my office.
