township Officers Bonds. .--The law requires
that Supervisors and Overseas of the poor in the
ssveral Townships shall give bonds for tire faithful
nerfornauce Of their duties within thirty days after
aIaction-or en- failure to do the Office becomes
vacant The writing 0 preparation of these bonds.
oreu imposes an amount Of drugery upon some IN
tsligent but good naturei Justice of the Peace,
other person wh ch he would gladly avoid but can
not.
We have recently prepared and printed blank
bonds expressly for these officers. The Clerk, OF
proper person for each Township should procure at
the expense of the Township dozen or two of these
blanks to be used as occasion requires-whlch wo'd
prove not only a saving in expense to the townships
but relief from an unpleasant task to the good ma
tured bond l-writer.
