County Clerk Forwood has recently |
made up the court expenses from May |
list, 1902 to May 1st, 1903. The sum
total amounts to $15,7Sl.23 which is
| So, 7S1. % more than the amount levied |
by the County Commissioners. The
total expenses from 1901 to 1902 were
SI1, $50 which is 81, 691.23 less than the
fiscal year just closed. This is an I'M
looked for expenditure that the County |
Commissioners could not of course, fore
see. One of the principal items which
makes the court expenses SO high was
the trial of Edward c. Watts which drew
| 81, 456 05 from our county exchequcr.
This Baltimore county will ultimately
have to pay, but as number ofHarford
cases have been tried there in the past
year it is probable that their bill will
more than offset ours
