REPORT OF COMMISSIONERS OF
ACCOUNTS-SO DIS
TRICT WOODRUFF CO.

To HONORABLE H. N. HUTTON.
Judge of the Woodruff Circuit
Court for the Northern Dis
trict.
We, the undersigned commits
sioners of accounts for Woodruff
County believe to submit the fol-
lowing report:
We find from the accounts kept
by the county clerk with the var
ious officers of the county, that said
officers have paid into the county
treasury all monies due the county
and state with the following ex-
captions;
L. D. Frizzell due on fine acct $50
T. j. Luney due on account $25
M. H. Patterson due on acct $50
NH. Patterson peddlers license $50
We also find that the county
treasurer has made the proper re-
ports and the amount as charged
by the clerk is on deposit to his Gre
dit as treasurer at the various
banks throughout the county.
We find no record of any report
files by the collector showing de-
linquent tax payers for the past
four years. Also that there has
been nothing credited to the school
for the rent of farm in District 20
for the past 2 years. We were
unable to check most of the ac-
counts filed against the county for
the reason that they were not item
lied but allowed in lump sums, es-
pecially is this true of the accounts
of the sheriff and clerks.
We find from the reports OF the
sheriff and constables some in

the shape that they should be.

some one, these errors should be

terested will have a chance to place
himself right before the public.
All of these reports are public rec
ords and should be given out to
the people that they may be in
