To the Hon. Board Of Supervisors:
Gentlemen We would respectfully
report the following as the minority
report of your committee on finance
and settlement: The report of the
County Treasurer, made by James
Hartwick and John Hanna, shows
and proves that not one cent of the
County fund has been misappropriated
and is correct in every particular as to
moneys received and paid out. The
State tax and some of town taxes
have been added to Contingent and
when due, paid from same fund.
This does not affect the sum total in
the least and has been practiced for
years. The majority of your com.
mittee on Finance and Settlement
are the first to object to this and de.
mand a separation of the funds from
the beginning of the year 1893, which
demand, If carried out, would cause n
good deal expense to the County, with.
out any material benefit. Now, there
fore we commend the action of the
Board in accepting and adopting the
report of the Treasurer, made by las.
Hartwick and John Hanna, and rec.
onmend that the Treasurer be re.
quested to keep each fund separate
and beginning with Jan. LIST, 1894.
(Signsd) PERRY MAINTAINING.
Moved by Sup. F. P. Richardson
that the report of the minority of the

ment be accepted and adopted. Yeas
and Nays called. Messrs. Hickey, 1.
H. Richardson, Manwaring, Barber,
Sherman and F. P. Richardson voting
Yea; Messrs. ADnis. Wakeley and
Neiderer voting Nay. Motion carried.
Moved by Sup. Manwaring that the
Board now adjourn till p. IN.
