To the Honorable Board Of Super

jan 10, 1895.
| GENTLEMEN:- According to the
instructions of your honorable body
al your November session directing
the county agent to take an inven-
tory of county property in the hands
of the respective county officers on
Jan. Z, 1895, I beg leave to report
that have carefully taken inven-
tory Of said property belonging to
Kenosha county and have compared
the same, with inventory taken by
county agent in 1893 and find the
same correct as follows: county
clerks office, register Of deeds,
clerk of court, treasurer's and sher
ifs office, also the statue OF 1873
of the surveyors; the books in the
district attorneys Office have been
delivered to his successor A. b.
Buckmaster, but find in his possess
ion several articles which came to
him while representing Kenosha
county, and which | believe should
be turned over and be in the hands
Of his successor in office; said ar
ticles being revolvers and some
drills. I, as county agent made
demand on the ex-district attorney
for the revolvers and drills, but he
utterly refuses to deliver same to
me or his successor, giving as his
reason that he was the legal custod
ian of them. Trusting that your
honorable body may take some &C
ton in the matter of the articles in
question and release your county
agent from any further responsible
ity in this matter l am most re-
spectfully,
C. H. GoNNERMANN,
County Agent
