Checking Lewiston Records.
Lewiston, Idaho. Aug. s1.-w. Q.
Bond. who is checking up and
docketing the records in the office of
the probate judge, yesterday came
upon a petition for the appointment
Of "a administrator for the estate Of
james Smith. together With orders
and otter papers in the case filed
during January and February, 1865.
IL is the oldest record known to exist
IN the files OF the office.
When these papers were recorded
Nez Perce county was several times
its present size and Elk City was
within its boundries. All the re
cords are badly worn from age and
the edges are charred from the Gre
that occurred in the court house ten
years ago. The petitions and orders
are written In ink and the double
g. lie written IN the old style.
One paper dated February 81.
Sea, is a petition to +. s. Spraeue.
Judge Of the probate court. relating
that on January %, James Smith, a
German brewer, committed suicide
by shooting himself through the head
with a rifle. and asking that Godfrey
Sarter be appointed special admins
traitor. because '.he Is conversant with
both the German aud the English Ian
guage and acquainted with the
friends of the deceased. The petit.
tion bears the names of about 10 resi-
dents OF Elk City. One OF the sign.
ers, Joel H. Martin Is still living not
far from Lewiston, at the age Of
/ eighty four years.
Another paper is an order direct.
I ing the administrator to sell the
property, consisting Of provisions,
barrel Of -four. liquors. cigars, malt
/ for brewing and The burning fluid. "
But it is the bill ct expense flled
by the probate judge that caps the
climax $40 docket fee, si
each for signing seven orders, filing
eight papers, testimony at the Inquest
80, copies OF orders $3.50 each, 4
total Of e27. No such thing ~ I
docket fee is charged In the ofiicS
now, and Il lie q matter OF wonder,
ment what trouble and labor Il Il
meant to cover.
