GRAND JURY REPORT FOR
APRIL TERM.

To Il. Il. Biselow, Judge, District
Court Of the Fourth Judicial District.
State Of Nevada:
We, your Grand Jury empaneled on
the sth day of April, 1884, beg leave to
report as follows: There have been pre-
sented for our consideration.
One case for assault.
One case for grand larceny.
One case for assault with intentto kill.
One case for house breaking.
The first We ignored but found true
bills for each OF the others.
We desire to call the ate ntion Of the
commissioner 10 the fact Of Mrs. Banks
being destitute, and while we are fully
aware Of the past history Of the case. We
think she is entitled to the care Of the
county and would recommend tn.
Board Of Commissioner TO provide
some means of relief. The reports OF
the several Committees are attached
hereto and made a par, Of this report.
We have expended some time upon the
delinquent tux rolls from years 1879 to
1883 inclusive, and have faithfully tried
to do orr duty in the way Of an e1nm-
inntion. but they are in bad shape and
need carefully revising. We find that
there was at the last meeting Of the
Board of Commissioners struck of the
roll Of 1879 the sun of 1887 n. and
they leave still standing the sum Of
sJ22 20. For the year 1850 they strike
oil sl.233 80 and leave uncollccted
STA ~; for 1881 they strike of sis7 ~
and leave Sl3l 49,; or 1882 they strike
out the sum Of SG1S 80, andIlcnve 20
be collected 1906 IL. while for 1881
there still stands the sum Of $500 rs
unsolicited, making n total Of s2,72G So
which has been stricken of the roll. and
Sl.752 80 still due are unpaid. W.
append two lists, one showing names
residences. year Of Assessment. and the
amount Of those stricken of the roll
and the other showing amount still
standing on the roll 10 be collected by
the District Attorney. II is the wish Of
the Grand Jury that these lists be pub
hshcd in both the ~ISDErESpxSr and
Free Press. and the same time request
anyone VINO finds any error therein. will
report the same 10 our foreman. We
cannot help saying We think the larger

could have been saved 10 the eonn,v
