name Of grantor cannot be made out.
The county owns a set Of tract in
dexes, and these were turned over to
the register to keep up. The follow
ing are all matters which are to be
charged up to him on account Of neg
1ect: These books cannot be depend
ed upon at all and by looking over
the short list hereto attached it will
be seen that the county will have to
employ some one to check up these
books, which will cost from $1,500.00
to 100000, so that the people of the
county will have something they can
depend upon and this would not have
to be done if the Office had been run
right by Mr.. Emmel

IN the matter Of ordering printed
records Mr.. Emmel abused the priv
ileges given to him by the county
commissioners and ordered book after
book which he knew would never be
used or filled up. If he had ordered
only such printed books as needed
and the balance blank records he
would have saved the county about
100000, besides the room that is now
taken up by useless books. Following
is a partial list of such records:
103 of deeds.
