upon the ground thai his zcrkEas quite
unnecessary, having been persoraed where
there was little on no need Of any repairs
being done, and that our roads were ieft IN
worse condition than tefoTe being touched
Furthermore, he wasted much more time
and money than vas needed 70 persorm the
work; and also asking that all supervisors
he limited 10 some specific sum which they
shall use in the repairs Of the pubic roads
This petition was signed BY these particu-
larry interested in this road and sent 10 our
County Commissioners, and thanks To the
Board was speedily acted upon, and As We
thought Justly dealt with. notice, how
ever, in the last issue Of the ERssgprsss an
other petition comes t. light, signed by NJ
ty-fve persons, under the head of taxpay-
ers, many Of whom never paid dollar for
taxes in their lives, and nearly al living
quite distance from the road complained
81. and never saw the work still they
have the assurance 10 say that the charges
made By more than thirty reliable taxpay-
ers who pass over the road almost daily are
almost unfounded. Now, let me say To these
gentlemen who signed Mr.. DAVIS petition,
that while / am confident they meant no
disrespect 20 the signers Of the former pet'-
ton, and merely signed the petition, as Is
too often the case with our people, IN
careless, indifferent manner, and upon the
representations of Mr.. DAVIS without know
ing or even guessing what they had signed,
that they are, nevertheless, guilty OF shield
ing and thus far consequentlysa party to
one Of the boldest raids that has ever been
attempted upon the taxpayers Of 81 Mary's
county. I hope that in justice to them
selves and the taxpaying interestofthe coun-
" that they all, without delay, will notify
our Levy Court Of the fact, either by card
or otherwise, that they were deceived in the
nature Of the instrument signed
Very respectfully,
