week to secure a compromise in the case of ex-
County Treasurer Hugh McRoberts, who is alleged
10 be Indebted to Richmond County S. l., in the
sum of about ST., 900. About year ago the Grand
Jury found An indictment against McRoberts for
embezzlement, and bench warrant was issued for
his arrest. After being logged for several days by
one of Sheriff Browns deputies McRoberts gave
himself up to County Judge Westervelt who re-
auired him to give bail in $4,000. Shortly after
this McRobertss friends offered to compromise the
matter by paying over to the county. $4,000, but
erts now makes the proposition, through his ooun-
eel, that he will deliver over TO the county In money
landed property and collateral the of $42, 600

Gciency. The Supervisors, it is believed. will
