FOURTH edition


At the afternoon session OF the Levy
Court yesterday. 3. j. MCCALL, late
Levy Court Commissioner Of Red Lion
Hundred, was allowed s37.20, for ten
days attendance and a mileage OF 100
miles, and William l.. Wier, late Levy
Court Commissioner of White Clay
Creek Hundred, was allowed $3.50 for

that he had received appropriations
amounting to &2,81S.18, and his re-
ceipts and vouchers amounted to tho
same.
The bond OF Grandon Reed, constable
Of st, Georges Hundred, was approved
with Nathan Guest and Richard Fur
geson as bondsmen.
Messrs. Clark, Simpler and Grubb,
the committee appointed to examine
the accounts OF Nevln G. Gamble, ex-
Coroner, spent the most part of yester-
day afternoon at that work. j. Frank
Ball, Esq, represented the Coroner,
and f. &. Bradford tho Levy Court.
The Goroner's bill was cut down some
SS3, but there were great many other
charges for extras that were consider
ed very weak. Without finishing the
Investigation, the committee ad-
journed.
]. L. Richardson, collector OF taxes
for Mill Creek Hundred in 1888, was be-
fore committee yesterday afternoon
to explain why he was behind some
$2SO0 for taxes In that Hundred. W.
L. Lyman, Esq, appeared for Richard
son. The latter claimed that he sent
County Treasurer Hannah a check for
$1,000 on the goth OF December that

for an additional $1,000.

composed of Messrs, Clark, Gillis and
Sutton to answer the charges OF max
ing unlawful charges for costs. Levy
Courtman Hutchinson met them with 0
number OF receipted bills for COST
paid, but which nevertheless were
charged against the county.
OF course there was no other COURSE
for Squire and Constable to do thai
either TO confess guilt In the matter
or plead that the charges were error
of the head. They chose the latter
and number of charges were stricken
from the bill. A number of othe
charges are to meet the same fate.
There is strong feeling now tina
