largely given up i'll the morningtothee cleo
ton bills. Tie accounts are extremely
voluminous. 1t was suggested that the

II. Cannon, White Clay; Harry McCaulley,
New Castle.
The assessors were then, on declaring
themselves to be freeholders, sworn in.
In the matter of the passing Of bills,

suggested that it would be more business
like that on each bill it be stated to what
account such bill shall be debited.

mite account is placed on the bill and on
the warrant. it Is omitted on the record.
