Office when the salary was only five hun

On the Goth day Of July, 1873, the Coun,
ty Court Of Wood county by its order en-.
tered In order book No. /. page 90, raised
his salary from $500 to $500. He had then
been In Office seven months, lacking two
days, at q salary OF $500. The same order
book, page 303, shows an allowance TO Mr..
Jackson Of $500 for the year 1874, for SER
vices as Prosecuting Attorney. The same
sum Is allowed him July term, 1875, same
book, page 567, and the same allowance Of
$500 Is made to him July term, 1876; see
order book No. 2, page 1928. And these
several allowances were received by him.
So, for the first seven months OF his
term Of ofice-aiter The serriee had ben re,l.

The above citations are very specific.

unerring precision. The law and the tes.

down in a way that nobody can misunder.
