The committee appointed to examine
the books of the County Superintendent
of Education submit the following:
To r. E. Pettus, FOremsen Of the Grand
Jury:
We the undersigned, committee ap-
pointed by you to examine the books OF
the County Superintendent Of Education,
have the honor to report that we have ex-
anime said books and pay roll and find
them kept correctly
Very respectfully,
w. Ii. ECHoLs,
w. N. DAVIS,
J. NJ. DRAKE.
The Probate Judges report to us shows
that for the year 1891, he has collected
for licenses of all kinds,
For State 50, 749. 50
For County. 2,oS4.oo
We have examined into the bonds of
all the county officials and in our judg-
ment find the following insufficient, for
the reason assigned, A. j. Bently, Gen.
eral Administrator, not strong enough,
James A. league, bondsman named in
body of bond not same as names signed
at foot of bond; Thos. 0. Gill, N. p, one
Had. w +. Clau NJ % one
bondsman dead; r. w. Figg, N. P, one
bondsman dead; S. ]. Mayhem, one
bondsman left the State; Thos. NJ. Har-
ter, N. p, one bondsman dead; Thos. ].
Fletcher, N. p. one bondsman dead; j.
B. Dicky, ]. P, one bondsman out OF the
State: G. Walker Jones' ]. p, no bonds
mans name in the body of his bond and
In executing the laws we would
charge our officials that they more rigid
ly enforce the Sunday laws. 1t is the
general impression that butchers, bakers
and confectioners are allowed to keep
open doors on the Sabbath, but the law
says that no one but druggist is granted
this privilege.
In conclusion we desire to commend
our untiring bailiffs, Messrs. s. M. Weav
er, r. w. Bennett, Charlie Thomas,
Charlie Potts, Ed. McCord, Robert Trib-
BILE, Joe Lane; ]. A. league and Charlie
Jenkins for their promptness in perform
ing all their respective duties.
With our best wishes for your Honor
and the other court officials, after having
performed our duties as well as we could,
we beg to be finally discharge.
