cred from Dr. Urban's frank ayowal that
the county solicitor advised his client,
Commissioner Bushong, that the county
might as we'll pay Urbar's bill as hundreds
of others which it paid-and for which, lr..

then he would object to paying certain
other bills-for which, presumably, he
knows it is not liable. And then when
the obdurate Bushong finally was per
suaded by Solicitor Fulton and Judge
Livingston that the county ought to pay
bill of sell. 80, for which it was not liable,
the virtuous Mr.. Coble, who had been
supposed to be solid for the bill, would not
pay it until Bushong assented to the Me-
Mellen bill. And thus the two jobs were
put through together!
