Your committee would further say that
it is impossible to make full report at
this session. 1t seems there is some mis-
take in apportioning this fund, but in
looking over the County Treasurer's
books we find the amount OF $3,15l SO
on hand, the 1st day of January, 1864,
due the several towns. There seems to
be a mistake in apportioning the fund TO
the town of Holland, and we would rec
ommend that the sum of $4,000 90 be rails.
ed in addition to what is on hand for the
relief of the families of volunteers of Of
tawa county until the first day of June,
1864. All of which is respectfully sub
mitted.
