And now comes William Paar,
Clerk of the County Court, and pre-
sents his report in matter of Road
Poll Tax for the year 1900, made in
obedience to an order of the Court
Dec. 81, 1901, from which it appears
that he made the examination requir-

exhibits filed with the report, the
same showing that there is DUE BY
THE COLLECTOR THE SUM OF
SIX HUNDRED FORTY TWO DOL
LARS AND NINETY ONE CENTS.
He further reports that the Collector
claims credit for additional poll tax
delinquent for said year 1900 for an
amount exceeding four hundred dol
lars, but that he is unable to furnish
a list of the same, AS THE COLLEC-
TOR DID NOT FURNISH HIM WITH
THE LIST ACCORDING TO AGREE
MENT. And the court after hearing
argument of counsel for and against
the report ordered that it be receiv-
ed and filed and that the matter be
continued until the next May Term Of
