MI. j. +. ROwell, R. c., Fayetteville, Tenn
Dear Sir-Your esteemed IA
vor of 18th inst. just received
AS l understand the law, you
are to collect, on the taxes for
1874, simply the interest at the
rate of 6 per cent. per annum-
calculating interest fiom No
vembcr 1, 1874, to date of pay
ment. In case there is real es-
tate on which you cannot col
lect the taxes from other sour
ces, and are forced to sell the
realty, then you charge the II
per cent. penalty in addition to
the interest. Hoping this will
be satisfactory, in connection
with the enclosed Supreme Court
decision and circular, | am,
Very respectfully, g.,
JAS. l.. GAINES,
Comptroller.
Under advice of the Attor-
ney General, | gave my depu-
ties instructions to collect the
ten per cent. penalty. The
Comptroller only claims six
per cent, and my deputies i'll
future will collect as directed in
the foregoing letter.
