Supervisor Hiles asked what the
Board was called together for, and
objected to having so many meetings
of the Board thereby making extra
expenses etc., and moved that COM
mlttee of three be appointed to audit
and allow such claims as were neces-
airy to audit between sessions Of the
Board. Mr.. Hiles motion not recei9-
ing second was not entertained By
the chair
District Attorney Gaynor. reported
on the claims that had been referred
to him as follows;
Claim of l.. Kroner $500, to
the Board of Supervisors Gentle
men it is my opinion that all the items
of the within bill are Just and true,
and legal charge upon the County
except the last item of six dollars. 1t
is my opinion that a Court Commits
siOner when acting as a justice in hold
ing court Is not entitled to per diem
when he charges fees. | would there
fore recommend that said item be re-
jected. j. A. Gaynor, Dist Atty.
On motion claim of L. KRONER
allowed at $3.50.
Claim of A. Masse Marshal $40. 10.
Gentlemen: [ received no notice to
appear in any of the above criminal
proceedings and know nothing of the
facts in the cases. | believe all the
items mentioned in the several cases
are legal charges upon the county, ex-
cept the item for excepting prisoner
which item appears mixed with the
cost of board. An officer can charge
for disbursements for board of pris-
oner" but not for keeping, | would
therefore recommend that the several
items for keeping should be rejected.
j. A. Gaynor, Dist. Atty.
On motion claim of A. Masse, al
lowed as recommended by Dist Atty.
Claim of City of Grand Rapids
1891 Pauper account. Gentlemen {:
[ would recommend that the within

appears from said bill that Wood Co.
is liable for the charges therein con-
tanned. J. A. Gaynor, Dist. Atty.
