This comprises all the recording done

1873, to November 18th, 1879, for which
/ received the sum of $S47 80, being
1880 folios this year to 12600 last year.
I further state that the boxes which |
was authorized to buy for the two cases
in the vault have come to my hands.
After the session of the board in Novem-
Der, 1878, wrote to Culver, Page, Hoyne
& Co., sole agents for the west, in Chi
cago, asking prices, etc., when the want
ed, besides their price, ten per cent. in
terect until Jan. l, 1880; and having no
urgent need of them at that time, [ let
the matter rest until September last,
when I got the boxes from the same firm
at $5 20 per dozen, without any interest
amounting according to the bill hereto
annexed; II dozen Chamberlin boxes,
$62 40, for the payment of which, L would
most respectfully ask an appropriation
from your honorable body.
would also pray that [ may be per-
mitted as hereto to draw my pay TOR re
cordmg every month upon filling with
the County Clerk due proof of such re-
cording.
At present I am not quite prepared to
give you or make to you complete re-
port of all the old records yet to be re-
corded, as can come to no certain con-
clusion until all the packages and papers
are filed, deposited and duly indexed in
the new boxes, which will surely take
me several weeks to accomplish, being
now without clerk and having no in
| tention to take one from henceforward, as
| the most difficult work has been done.
| All of which is respectfully submitted
HENRY CoLoNIUs. Co. Judge.
