lected on, delinquent chattel property,
1874, $56, ,S65 53. The $1,000 discrepancy
charged against Treasurer Sebastian,
still remains unsettled. This discrep-
ancy was incurred some 6 years ago, by
the payment of Mr.. D. Thrasher's
bill for services as Omission Clerk,
which was passed by the Commis-
sioners but refused by the Auditor.
Accordingly the Auditor to this day
charges the Treasurer with $4,000 more
on bis books, which should be dupll-
cate of the Treasurer's. than he really
has ON hand. The only way to balance
the books now will be by the County
Commissioners passing resolution in
structing the Auditor to credit this
on his books as having been paid.
Mr.. Sebastian at that time acted under
legal advice.
