leave his bed at the Illinois College
hospital next Monday, according to DR..
B. B. Eads, who performed the opera

the surgeon said. "He was a gardener

preyed upon his vitals he was reduced
from 1S9 to 125 pounds. He will regain

vine. At this time he is doing we'll

MRS. LAMB MUST PAY TAX.
Decision on Validity of a Certificate
Rendered by Attorney DuyaII.

The validity of a tax certificate trans
ferred TO a subsequent purchaser Of the
property represented, is the subject Of
an opinion submitted to the District
Commissioners by their Attorney Andrew
P. DuvaI In this opinion, tie Attorney
takes issue with the District Assessor,
and advises the Commissioners not to
cancel the tax which II was claimed was
enormously omitted from the certificate.
It appears that there was a default in
the payment of the general taxes on lot
Zf2, OF Browns subdivision Of Mount
Pleasant for the year 1898. The follow
ing April the property was advertised
and sold for taxes at the annual sale
July IS. 1899, according to the records.
Malcolm Hufty made APPLICATION fer and
received a tax certificate, upon which no
mention was made Of the tax sale OF the
previous April.
The property was conveyed to Mrs.
Lillian Lamb by deed recorded April 9 OF
the present year
few weeks ago Mr. Hufty, acting as
attorney for Mrs Lamb. made application
for the cancellation OF the tax and the
annulIing Of the tax sale on the ground
of the issue OF the certificate above refer
red to. AS an additional reason for action
Mr.. Hufty in his application called atten-
ton to the order OF the Commissioners
which requires that notice of tax sale
shall be placed on every tax certificate is
sued.
II. DarneiIIe, the Assessor, in his re-
port upon the application, took the
ground that the omission was an error in
his Office. and that the claim for cancel
Iatiou should be allowed.
Mr.. DuvaH, in reviewing the case. calls
attention to the fact that the written re-
port of the Collector Of Taxes. fled in the
Office of the Recorder of Deeds, showed
the tax sale of 1899. and he says that this
was lien against the property.
