CANCELLATIONS given in the clerks copy OF

ferred to on page sos VIM. Bach pre-
ents the tax deeds referred to in the
above resolution and receives orders for
the same amounting to Sl02. 90. The
committee are informed by. Mr. E. 3,
Treat that prior TO the year 1865 when
the county Board refunded to him the
amount as per above resolution he had
lost al title to said lands by sale on exc
cution and that Mhen the said amount
