TO the Hon. Board of Superuisors
Of the County of Van Buren,:
Having been appointed by the Board
at its last January session committee
to correspond with A. II. Heron, for.
mer Clerk of this county, in relation to
moneys in his hands belonging to the
county, would respectfully report that I
have written to Mr.. Heron and in re.
ply received the following affidavit. viz !:
STATE OF MICHIGAN, :.
County of Washtenaw,
Ashbel H. Heron, formerly Clerk of
Van Buren, County, being duly sworn
deposes and says that he has recently
received from Samuel Holmes, the pres
ent Clerk of said county, printed slip
purporting to be the Report of Com
mittee of the Board of Supervisors of
Van Buren, County, in which the follow
ing appears:
Your Committee also made a par
tial examination of the Circuit Court
Calendar for the last three months of
the term of office of Mr.. A. II. Heron,
and find that the last moneys paid by
him to the County Treasurer for entry
fees was on September Both, 1868, and
that subsequent to that date and before
the expiration of his term of Office, be
received for entry fees the sum of fifty
eight dollars, no part of which can we
find any evidence, was ever paid into the
County Treasury. Nor can we find that
any sum whatever was paid into the
County Treasury for Jury fees during
the term Mr.. Heron held the Office Of
County Clerk"
The said deponent further says that
he is not at present indebted to the
county of Van Buren, to the value of
anything; that on or about the first Of
February, A. D. 1869, he made full set.
Element with the county of Van Buren,,
by the payment to Edwin Barnum, the
then County Treasurer, of all that was
at that time due from him TO the coun-
ty !; that to the best of his present recol
lection, that said amount was paid by
an Offset against portion of the amount
then due him and for which he held
county order.
That be thinks that in no single in.
stance was any Jury fee ever collected
by him and in consequence he had none
IN his hands to pay over that he is of
the opinion that prior to his becoming
clerk of said county, it had not been the
practice Of enforcing the payment of
Jury fees. A H. HEBRON.
