SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER "a. 1886

remainder of the money was paid Dir. Me-
cashn was to make titles to the property.
soon after the SALE was agreed upon and
the $1,000 paid, the city government OF
West End sub-diyided the tract and sold
all of it except one acre, upon which
fine school house or academy has been
built. The funds realized from the sale
were used to build the academy. Among
the purchasers of the sub-diyided tract
was Mr.. Caldwell.
He paid mis- money for the lot that be
purchased. but has never been able TO get
titles to the property. Mecasln won't
give West End titles to the land until he
is paid In full, and West End hasn't the
money to pay. Caldwell, after waiilng
upon the government Of West End nearly
three years, says that he nas been put OF
long enough, and now either wants his
money returned or the titles TO his pur-
chase. The government of West End
comes back at him with an offer that rs
soon as the Legislature meets bill Will
be passed authorizing West End to issue
number of bonds for the purpose of
llquidatiug some indebtedness, and that
when the bonds are sold Caldwell Will be
paid his money. Besides there is another
offer that has been made, and that is that
if Caldwell holds up his suit lie will be
paid out OF the first surplus that comes
into tue treasury. TO both of these prOpO-
sitions Caldwell has made an answer in
the negative by filing MS bill.
One of the reasons why, it is said, Mr..
Caldwell refuses to delay the matter
longer is that the people OF West End viii
enter protest against the issuance OF
bonds. as they well know that to issue
bonds means increased taxation, as Inte =
est will have to be paid on them. 1t g
said that an effort will be made to raj q
the balance due Mecaslin anil pay hin,
so that he can make titles to the property ,
and that then the suit againss West End
can be settled by giving Caldwell title
to his purchase. A'-t - A4i1 thA

ture.
Resolved That in the person of Hon. Nell

ponent of those principles upon which the
success of our government has depended and
that his untiring efforts in behalf of the busi-
