SOME PERSONAL TENS

The regular meeting of the Holly
Beach Borough Council was held last
night. Mayor Smith, Councilman
Culver, Lopez and Woolston were
present, as were also Borough Clerk
Hewitt, Solicitor Voorhees, and Engi-
neer Rice. The collectors report
showed $40 900 on hand after the pay
ment of state and county tax. This
snug sum was put to good use by
Council ordering all the notes in bank
paid, amounting to $10,975. When
the report of the Commissioners of
Assessment on the cement walks came
up Charles T. Shaw complained that
the pavement in front of his property
was defective, having been laid in
freezing weather, causing it to crum-
BILE. The street committee will look
after this one, as we'll as all other de-
fective cement walks. The considera-
ton of the report was deferred until
the regular meeting in the latter part
of January. L. M. Rice was appointed
to audit the borough books previous TO
their being turned over to Collector
elect Barker. A fire escape ordinance
and a garbage incinerating ordinance
were introduced. Council adjourned
to meet at 11.30 on Jan. |, and shortly
afterward the new Council will be
organized.
VIM. Il. Garrison was arrested on
Wednesday, Dec. ID, by a constable
from Ocean City on a charge of en-
bezzlement preferred by the Five Mile
Beach Lumber Company. He gave
bail in the sum of 1925 for his appear
ance at the April term of Court, E.
Yenney and Mrs. edward Stiles be-
coming his bondsmen.
Mrs. Edward Tunis, aged "a years,
died at the residence of her husband
on Burke avenue last Thursday after
an illness of a few months from on

The cases of VIM. K. Pinker, Gus
Nelson ahd f. H. Crammer, who plead
not guilty to selling liquor on Sunday,
came before the Court last Thursday
and Prosecutor Douglass entered a
mole pros in all three cases, as the
complainants, the agents of the law
and order league, failed to appear. The
pressing of the charge is now discon-
tinued, and it is believed that these
three men do not come under the cate
CORY of those who will be refused a re-
newal of their licenses by reason of
pleading guilty or being convicted of
selling on Sunday. Court was adj
journed until Wednesday, Jan.3, when
the Ease of Forrest Long for assault and
battery will be taken up, after which
the Common Pleas cases will be tried,
one of the latter being Sherman L.
Dowler against Samuel E. Moore, o
contract, an appeal from Justice
Bridges. The Circuit Court cases will
be tried by Judge Endicott at Court
House, commencing Tuesday, Jan. 30.
Among the latter are several cases in
which the Five Mile Beach Lumber
Co. is the plaintiff, against VIM. L.
Garrison and others.
