In brief auditor Garrison s defense
viii be that the justice OF the peace is
in debt 10 the District for fees received
over ard above the amount of lae salary
due him for December
In this ne is supported by a rulirg of

of the peace IS Obliged TO pay 10 the Col
Hector CT Taxes of the District all de-
posts placed with nim by plaintiffs in
suits brought before him, regardless of
whe1her these deposits are used up in
costs or not
The argument of Justice Strider is
that he holds these deposits az trustee
fer the parties making them, and that,
unless they are consumed IN costs. he
is not entitled TO them and therefore
the District has no right TO claim them.
but that they belong of right 10 the

This position is in line with an opin-
