Assessor Hance vindicnted.

The Levy Court convened again this
morning shortly after 10 o'clock and
the various committees proceeded In
the revision of tho assessments. Quite
a number OF persons gathered outside
tue railing In expectation OF spicy
times In relation to Assessor Hance,
but they were doomed to disappoint-
ment. About an hour after the Court
convened Levy Courtman Gillles arose
to a question of privilege which was
granted. MIR. Gillls then stated In re-
lation to the charge against Assessor
Hance for putting two names on the
New Castle Hundred assessment lists
Illegally was wrong. and TINT IL any
body had erred in tho matter it was
himself (Gillis.)
He stated that Mr.. Hance told him
OF two names he had forgotten to put
on the lists, which were properly
vouched for on the 30th OF January
when he sat at Hare's Corner Think
ing that the omission was but q cleri-
cal error he told Mr.. Hance to put the
names on the lists, which he did, and
whatever censure there was In the case
should come upon him and not upon
Mr.. EIance. After this explanation,
Mr.. Clark moved that the committee
of investigation be discharged from
any further consideration OF the sub
ject.
Mr.. Hickman opposed the motion
and thought that the committee had
better proceed with the investigation,
Mr.. Elilson and Mr.. Grub also op-
posed dropping the investigation
when Mr.. Clark withdrew his motion,
and the committee retired to inve5ti-
gate.
The only witness called before the
committee was Assessor Hance him
self, who produced the vouchers for
the two men assessed regularly exc.
cuted, and stated that he placed the
names OIL the assessment by the in
structlons of Mr.. Gillis. The latter
being one of the COMMITTEES admitted
that he so instructed Mr.. Hance.
| The Republicans on the committee,
proposed presenting a report exoner-
ating Mr.. Hance, and that IL anyone
was to blame in the matter, it was MIR
Gillis.
Mr.. Sutton and Mr.. Flason. the
Democrats on tho committee. object
ed to This and proposed bringing in
minority report.
1t ia expected that both reports vii
be presented to the court this after
