Wild Lands.

Citizens of Cobb county give in $4,000
acres of wild lands, at 80 cents per acre, in
other counties. Our efficient and clever
Tax Receiver, G. L. Daniel, wishes to call
attention to a change made by the last Leg
isature in regard to giving in wild lands
The act recites that,
"Any person, whether resident or nom
resident of this State, owning wild lands in
any county ofths State other than that in
which he resides, may by himself or agent
go before the Ordinary or Tax Receiver OF
county of his residence, if a resident of this
State, and if not resident of this State,
then before the Ordinary or Tax Receiver
of any county in this State or any Commits
sioner of Georgia resident in another State,
or the Ordinary or Judge of the Probate
Court or similar officers of the county of his
residence, and make out true return of all
the wild lands owned by him in any coun.
ty owned by him in any county of this
State under oath and shall transmit the
same to the Receiver of tax returns of the
county in which the land lies, within the
time prescribed by law for giving in taxes. -
And parties not giving in wild lands as pre-
scribed will be double taxed and when tax
es are not paid in the time provided by law,
executions will be issued, the wild lands
advertised and sold
