urer-Mr. Suckney-tnat tnere was
no such fund as Relief Fund in the
county Treasury. We were still uu-
willing to believe that this money was
dcsigncdly held back, but came to the
conclusion that either Mr.. Eckels was
mistaken in hearing, or Mr.. Stieknoy
In making the statement. And con-
sequcntly we concluded to make fur
thcr saarch for the money. c. G,
Nestlerodc, one of our number, wrote
a letter to j. T. Martin, our County
Recorder-having been long and inti-
matcly acquainted with him-and
kindly, and politely asked him to wait
upon the County Commissioners, who
we're then in session.: and ascertain
from them the amount pf Relief Fund
due Loudcn township. The follow
ing is his reply:
