signed by jackson & Sharp, George
W. Bush and number of other in.
fiuential citizens, asking for his ap.
pointment as Building Inspector, which
was accepted and filed.
Mr.. Eastburn moved to reconsider
the vote by which the ordinance pro.
viding for a Building Inspector was
passed, when Mr.. Talley said he did

thought it could, but upon the City
Solicitor being appealed to he stated
that after an ordinance is passed on
the call Of the yeas and nays, engrossed
and signed, it could only be considered
by another ordinance. The motion to
| reconsider was then withdrawn.
