the resolution of council accepting
the contract price OF the Mitchell En-

sented, stated specifically that the
bonds were to be taken at par for
cash In other words for each thou

must be n thousand dollars in cash
deposited against that bond.
At this point when the contention
of the resolution was made to Mr.
Mitchell. he asked that council take
