REPORTS OF STANDING COMMITTEES
Of Committee on Ways and Means
On an order to refund to A. Opperheim
sDZJS5 Oh Sa1e ~. ., ID. IL, bruDSOQ 8 aQ-
dition.
From what information the committee have
been able to obtain, it appears that one half of
lot g. block IA, Brunson's addition, was con-
demned October %, 1870, for railroad purposes
That a sale was made January 80, 1875, of the
lot for an assessment, amounting to $17.79,
and that for said amount, with penalty for non
payment amounting to the sum of $21.19,
was issued or assigned to h. Sahlgard. There
seems question as to the title of one-half of
lot being in railroad any. Before con-
demnation for railroad purposes, the title of
the lot was in Mary Green. If one-half belongs
to the railroad, and is exempt from assessment,
should not the remaining half pay half assess
ment, and is not half of lot confirmed to st. P.
