On motion Of Carey, board adjourned

At o'clock board met and quorum

proved.
A letter from the town clerk of the
town of Rockland, stating that mistake
was made in adding the number of acres
assessed in that town of over 400 acres in
excess of the real number, asking the
county board to correct the SAID mistake
This letter was accompanied by resolu
ton from Thompson. IN the same sense
and language, but was declared out of or
der by the chair on account of the assess
ment having been made and adopted and
that no alteration could be made without
a good deal of extra expense to the
county.
A claim of the Pilot for printing 100
copies of the assessment report, amount
SIS 90, was allowed under suspension of
rules.
The committee on illegal assessments
reported in favor of petitioner, Fritz
Becker, and the county clerk was instruct
ed to issue a tax deed on said lost certif-
cate.
Report of the committee on poor was
read and on motion of John Carey unan-
imously adopted.
To the Hon. Chairman and Board of Super
visors of Mauitowoc County. We, the under
signed committee on poor respectfully beg leave
TO report that of the different accounts now in
our hands we recommend, after having careful
ly examined the same, the following amounts
to be allowed in full:

ination of insane persons. IS 30

Com on Poor livery and expenses IL 90
The following accounts we would recommend
10 be allowed in part, as follows.
OF DR.. III. Coakey, account amounting in ell
to S59.tO, we would recommend that Sl400 be
allowed for the examination of insane persons,
while the balance of his claim, amounting to
SO. 90 be referred back to the claimant for cor
rection in order to comply with section 81 of
the revised statutes.
OF DIR. Prtchard, account amounting to $40
80, we recommend that 50 60 for the examine
ton of insane persons be allowed and the bal
ance amounting TO $40 co. for post mortem eX-
animation. be referred back to the claimant for
further specification according to section No.
611, of the revised statutes.
OF DR.. X S. O'ConneIs bill amounts to $50,
we recommend that of said amount $500 be al
lowed for the examination of the insane per-
son. Jared Mason, while the balance Of the bill
amounting to 5000 we recommend TO be reterr-
ed back TO the claimant for specification as re-
Quired 10y section 677. r. 5.
or the account of the City of Manitowoc,
amounting TO S2l4 Al. we recommend that SlS4,-
Al be allowed, the balance of $50 for the support
of Mrs. HeinrichS, however, disalowed for the
reason that she is not entitled to public support
and for the further reason that if she should be
entitled thereto she is not Il proper county
charge.
The account of the St. Nazians Association
amounts to Si.aSs.00. We recommend that
s., go DE allowed. the balance of SIS. however
dsailowed for the reason that the Association
charged one year ooatd Tor one OF our insane
who was kept there only 40 weeks during the
year 1850.
The account of Dr. Robinson, amounting to
3 o. we respectfully recommend to be referred
TO the claimant for the reason that the account
was not sworn to.
At the former meeting of the county board
bill was handed us from Fond du Lac county
for money expended in the support of Sophia
Peterson, an insane person, who as they claim
belongs to Manitowoc county There was no
proof before us TO that effect and our county
clerk was therefore instructed to write to the
Fond du Lac county authorities to get the
ceSSary information. Two letters which he
wrote have noi been answered. which leads US
to believe that said Sophia Peterson is not
proper charge TO this county.
Your committee would further state that they
have visited the paupers ana insane persons
Kept at 81. NaZlanS ana have tound them 10 as
good situation as could be expected. There
are at present kept twelve persons in all. nine
females and three male persons, for whom we
have renewed the old contract expiring Dec. l,
1850. for one year, paying $500 week for each
of the inmates there at present FOr the young
man Erick Erickson; lately sent back from
Milwaukee to our county, we have also entered
into an agreement with the st. NaZians AsSoci-
alton that he should DE kept there for $500
week said amount 10 be paid for board cloth
ing and medical attendance. He will be sent
there in the course IF few days
All of which is respectfully submitted.
