There was special meeting of the
Common Council yesterday, and the
proceedings are published in this
issue. The indications are that the
town viii be relieved from the further
burden of those leeches, the town
bonds, which suck up so much of the
revenue needed for other purposes.
The matter has been referred to the
City Attorney, Mr.. Pugh, and his
opinion as to whether the recent
decision of the Supreme Court applies
to our town bonds, will be given at
the next meeting of the Council.
