he would present proposition to the

there is not and will not be a suffi-
cient amount of funds in the treasury
to pay said interest when due unless
a special tax be levied; therefore
Be it resolved by the Board of May
or and Aldermen, that tax of forty
cents on every one hundred dollars
worth of taxable property be levied
for the purpose of raising funds to
pay the interest on the SIS, 900 bonds
given to the Tennessee Central Rail-

ton, and have better opportunity of |

fit to the town in the way of advertis-
ing and inducing immigration to this
